Caudex is a portfolio within Jonas Software Australia, and we acquire and operate vertical market software businesses for the long term. We preserve what makes your company great, your team, your brand, and your customers.
Acquiring and Operating Software Companies for the Long Term
Caudex is a software acquisition operating group within Jonas Software, part of Constellation Software Inc. We acquire vertical market software companies and provide them with a permanent home, backed by the resources and expertise of one of the world's largest software companies.
We focus on businesses that serve specialised industries with mission-critical software. When we acquire a company, we invest in its growth while preserving the culture, team, and customer relationships that made it successful.
Why Caudex
