Jaspersoft was originally called Panscopic, and was founded by Al Campa, CEO, and Raj Bhargava, VP of Products in 2001. Panscopic raised $23M from Doll Capital, Discovery Ventures, Morgenthaler Ventures, and Partech. In 2004 Panscopic teamed up with Teodor Danciu,[2] acquired the intellectual property of JasperReports, and changed the name of the company to Jaspersoft. Brian Gentile became CEO in 2007.
Jaspersoft provides commercial software around the JasperReports product, and negotiate contracts with software developers that wish to embed the JasperReports engine into a closed source product.
Jaspersoft's main related product is JasperReports Server, a Java EE web application that provides advanced report server capabilities such as report scheduling and permissions. It is available under an open source license for use in conjunction with open source infrastructure such as MySQL and JBoss, or a commercial license for enterprise deployments involving commercial databases and application servers.
Jaspersoft is a gold partner with MySQL,[3] and JasperReports was included in the PostgreSQL distribution Bizgres version 0.7.[4][5][6]
Teodor Danciu began work on JasperReports in June 2001, the sf.net project was registered in September 2001[7] and JasperReports 0.1.5 was released on November 3, 2001.[8]
JasperReports Version 1.0 was released on July 21, 2005.[9]
The code was originally licensed under a copyleft JasperReports License[7] and later moved to LGPL.
