About Us

Providing Print and Digital Solutions to the Publishing Industry

Welcome to Pongrass Publishing Systems. For over 40 years, we have been a trusted software provider to the media industry. We offer solutions for advertising, billing, and editorial production. We also serve corporate resellers and publishing groups.

Our History

Pongrass Publishing Systems was founded in 1984 by Leslie Pongrass and John Armstrong. We changed the newspaper industry by introducing desktop PCs. Our journey started with a terminal emulator for DEC Classified and grew into classified ad pagination software for Macintosh. Our advertising suite has evolved with technology, now featuring Version 6, a browser-based solution.

Key Features

Our success comes from the integration of our suite’s products. These include ad booking, classified pagination, ad layout, ad tracking, editorial tracking, and content management. You can install them individually or combine them for more flexibility.

Product Strategy

Since the beginning, we have led in software solutions for newspapers, shoppers, directories, and magazines. We have expanded to South East Asia, Latin America, the USA, and Europe. Version 6 offers cloud-based, browser access with enterprise-level services.
