Drag and Drop was founded in 1999 by father and son team David and James Wright and it immediately made an impact within the newspaper industry.

ProMotor 1.5, Internet Data Miner, DDT(Drag and Drop Tracking) and third party software from MEi (Managing Editor, USA), have been the major products installed throughout the industry since then, D&D's products have been installed in most of the major newspaper groups and in many independent papers, as well as magazine houses and general printers.

It's philosophy has always been to support it's customers as closely as possible, understanding the nature of newspaper publishing and the need for fast, reliable response to problems, D&D has begun to base the majority of it's products on an ISP hosted environment, allowing customers to offer self-service to their clients without fears of security or the need for capital expenditure on kit or IS requirements to maintain their service.

This also allows D&D to offer a fast efficient 24/7 maintained service, that can feed one or two main production sites within a group to allow consolidation if required.
