Product overview

Daou Technology operates a multi-category IT services portfolio organized into four divisions: Business Marketing (messaging and communication services), Commerce (e-commerce solutions), Biz Infra (work platforms and IT infrastructure), and Financial IT. The core Business Marketing division centers on 뿌리오 (Ppurio), a comprehensive messaging platform supporting SMS, RCS, email, and fax, with the enterprise-focused 비즈뿌리오 (Bizppurio) variant for B2B system integration. Supporting marketing services include 애드콘 (mobile coupons), 엔팩스 (internet fax ranked #1 for 14 years), and 비즈메일러 (email marketing with patented ClickInsight™ reporting). The Commerce division is anchored by 사방넷 (Sabangnet), a shopping mall integrated management service leading the market with 650+ mall integrations, supplemented by 콜믹스 (050 virtual number marketing). Biz Infra is built around 다우오피스 (DaouOffice), an all-in-one work platform with 35+ functions, expandable via the 다우오피스HR HR management module, while 다우IDC provides data center and cloud infrastructure. The Financial IT division delivers specialized services for the BFSI sector. All divisions are supported by shared infrastructure and the company's ISMS-P certified security framework.
