Altap is a privately-held software development company founded in January 1999 by Jan Ryšavý and Petr Šolín. Main product of the company is still Altap Salamander, fast and reliable two-panel file manager for Windows. Development of Altap Salamander (formerly known as Servant Salamander) started in 1996 as a hobby project by Petr Šolín during his studies at university. Project becomes quickly so popular that we decided to establish Altap and work on Salamander full time. Today, our products are used worldwide by individuals, companies, schools, and institutions. The open plugin architecture of Altap Salamander enables us to work with several very talented and experienced external developers. We also work with major software houses on implementing technologies developed for Salamander (e.g. Undelete Library) into their products. Our goal is to build high-quality and useful products and support our customers.
