The COMPUTERLINKS name may appear to be new, but the company has been trading in the UK and Ireland since 2000, having bought Unipalm. Whilst the Unipalm name may now be gone, COMPUTERLINKS has inherited a long and distinguished history:
2003
Building on the success of COMPUTERLINKS Germany's training division, Unipalm created COMPUTERLINKS Training UK providing the highest quality training courses and certification to complement Unipalm's portfolio of best-of-breed Internet solutions. In addition, Unipalm launched SafeAnet, a managed service for home workers and small businesses.
2002
Unipalm received ISO9001 recognition - for the 'Provision of Software Distribution and Related Service'.

2001
Unipalm expanded it's presence in Ireland, appointing local sales and technical staff and establishing offices in Dublin. Check Point acknowledged Unipalm's commitment to the Irish market by appointing us a distributor for Ireland, previously not part of our distribution agreement. This, and other such agreements, enable Unipalm to offer a comprehensive portfolio to the Irish channel.
2000
COMPUTERLINKS, a public company trading at the time on the German Neuer Markt acquired 100% of the shares of Unipalm. Simultaneously, COMPUTERLINKS also acquired 100% of the shares of Alpha Media of France (which began trading as COMPUTERLINKS). Whilst Unipalm offers customers many benefits as a result of a pan-European group, we also still maintain a high level of independence.
