Friedman Business Consulting - Background

Ron and Gloria Friedman were the owners of DAMOMICS INC since 1982.  January 1, 2015 the inventory and clients were purchased by Soft Intelligence of Atlanta, GA.   Soft Intelligence is maintaining staff and offices in downtown Elmira.  They can be reached at http://www.softintelligence.com

Gloria Friedman started DAMOMICS in 1982 as a programmers shop. DAMOMICS stands for Development And Modification Of MIcroComputer Software. During the course of work, requests would come in for custom built computers, parts, service and accessories. Thus the DAMOMICS store location on 120 Water Street was purchased. Through the years, DAMOMICS adapted to serve the needs of its customer base in the Twin Tiers. In speaking with several business customers, there was a clear need for Point of Sale software in the local business community. Ron & Gloria researched and demoed all of the available POS software and hardware at the time and came to the conclusion that Synchronics CounterPoint was the best option with the widest industry scope. Ron & Gloria have excellent relations with their customers as well as ties to the community (being members of the Chamber of Commerce since DAMOMICS inception) and being a strong supporter of community events. With the creation of the DAMOMICS User’s Conference in 2005, the owners cultivate an environment where their clients can mingle, learn new CounterPoint options as well as preview services from a wide range of vendors.

Our Story

Why we lost our offices

In the summer of 2015 we returned home to find that the facade from an adjacent building failed and was in danger of falling onto the street.   The city began an emergency demolition of the middle two buildings in a four block strip. They thought that they could save  our building.

But about three weeks into the demolition, a load of bricks fell from the fourth floor of the adjacent building and destroyed our offices.  We were able to relocate to the corner of Main and Water Street, about a half block from our building.

We also decided that this was a sign that then was the right time to sell our business.   Our CounterPoint and Passport customers were acquired by SoftIntelligence of Atlanta Georgia.   Per our agreement,  Joe maintained our staff and offices  for three years.  We ware happy to say that after the three years were up, Joe decided to keep an office in the area but relocated to a more convenient location outside of Corning.
