eComStation or eCS is an operating system based on OS/2 Warp for the 32-bit x86 architecture. It was originally developed by Serenity Systems and Mensys BV under license from IBM. It includes additional applications, and support for new hardware which were not present in OS/2 Warp. It is intended to allow OS/2 applications to run on modern hardware, and is used by a number of large organizations for this purpose.[4] By 2014, approximately thirty to forty thousand licenses of eComStation had been sold.[5]
Financial difficulties at Mensys in 2012 led to the development of eComStation stalling, and ownership being transferred to a sister company named XEU.com (now known as PayGlobal Technologies BV),[6] who continue to sell and support the operating system.[5] The lack of a new release since 2011 was one of the motivations for the creation of the ArcaOS OS/2 distribution.[7]
