DAQUAS

What DAQUAS does

DAQUAS, s.r.o. was a privately held Czech information technology company headquartered at Anny Letenské 34/7, Prague 2, founded in 1991 and operating with a 1–10 employee headcount. The firm functioned as a B2B software licensing reseller and licensing advisory practice rather than a proprietary technology developer. Its core products were software license acquisition and management services, expert license consulting covering compliance and optimization (notably for Microsoft and other enterprise software vendors), and the "Softwarový QUAS Magazine" — a software industry publication issued in printed and electronic formats covering news, reviews, and analysis of software products and licensing topics.

The company's go-to-market targeted B2B IT resellers, service providers, and channel partners in the Czech Republic seeking Microsoft SPLA (Service Provider Licensing Agreement), cloud subscription, and enterprise license procurement support. DAQUAS distributed software licenses via direct business contact (dedicated email addresses for sales, CSP/SPLA inquiries, and invoicing) and through its website, with marketing also conducted via email newsletter and the printed QUAS magazine. Pricing was quote-based / consulting-engagement style rather than publicly listed, consistent with a licensing advisory and reseller model.

In July 2023, DAQUAS merged with ALSO Czech Republic s.r.o. (Ič: 08797251), a subsidiary of the pan-European ALSO Group, with ALSO Czech Republic as the surviving legal entity. The merger combined DAQUAS's licensing advisory expertise with ALSO's broader software and hardware portfolio to create cross-sell synergies. Following the transaction, the original DAQUAS website was decommissioned for active updates, and all customer information, news, and offers were migrated to ALSO's web presence at also.com. DAQUAS, s.r.o. (Ič: 146 16 947) was absorbed into ALSO Czech Republic, and the company no longer operates as a standalone entity.
