Willow Technology, Inc. is a privately held United States based corporation founded in January, 1991. As of October, 2019, Willow US has been acquired by Willow Technology (Isle of Man) Ltd., a company established in April, 2018 to coincide with the relocation of the company owners to the island.

In April, 2018, Willow established a new subsidiary company to assume R&D responsibility for middleware messaging and security products and will be the site of a new corporate data centre. This subsidiary is located in Douglas, Isle of Man.

In July, 2008, Willow's headquarters relocated from Silicon Valley to just north of Bellingham, Washington in rural Whatcom County and 10 minutes from the Canadian border and began construction of a new Grade A office building to serve as its headquarters and data center. In December, 2009 Willow was able to move into its new office.

Willow's primary business is in messaging middleware software products. Willow ports MQ middleware to many different operating systems, and the company has been the leading independent supplier of MQ client and server products since 1996. The products are developed under licensing agreements with IBM Corporation and are owned and supported by Willow, and sold under the Willow logo.

Willow has also developed its own line of MQ add-on products under the brand viaMQ. These products allow users to take advantage of MQ infrastructures without having to modify existing applications.

Willow is also the parent of AirZip, Inc., a company acquired from its investors in January, 2005. AirZip specializes in market leading information rights management, and patented image compression technologies. In December, 2016, AirZip was fully merged into Willow.

Willow's products and services fulfill a vital role supporting business critical functions at Global 2000 companies across industries in some 100 countries.

Willow operates in several business areas:

Messaging Middleware
Willow ports WebSphere MQ middleware to many different operating systems, and the company remains the leading independent supplier of WebSphere MQ client and server products. The products are developed under licensing agreements with IBM Corporation and are owned by Willow and sold under the Willow logo.
Willow has developed its own line of MQ add-on products under the brand viaMQ. These products allow users to take advantage of MQ infrastructures without having to modify existing applications.

Technical Support
Willow offers 24x7 (continuous) technical support to its customers worldwide.
Willow provides supports for both its own products and IBM's distributed WebSphere MQ platforms.

Remote Operations Service
Many smaller organizations do not have the staffing and expertise to maintain MQ networks, especially when the primary purpose of MQ is to connect to external suppliers or customers. Willow maintains several MQ networks on behalf of its customers, offering monitoring, troubleshooting and maintenance for a fixed annual fee.

Timesharing Service
Willow's laboratories have over one hundred enterprise class servers running more than two dozen different operating systems with high speed connections to the internet.
Willow customers, partners and ISVs use these facilities for benchmarking, development, testing, and proof of concept validation. These can be done locally on site, or remotely via secure VPN connections.
