Unlike many of its Russian competitors Kraftway realizes that new product design and technology development are crucial factors in the survival of a company. Kraftway invests over $2 M in R&D annually.

In April 2003 Kraftway and Intel opened a solution center (later transformed in a Research and Competence Centre) in Moscow to support a migration of Russian customers to 64-bit architecture. Through the resources and expertise of the centre Kraftway is committed to continuously enhancing its research and development capabilities and delivering new technologies and solutions to better suit the needs of the customers. Today the company invests in high performance computing, product design, thin clients, management software development, back-up, security and storage solutions and vertical solutions for education, utilities, city security and other areas.

Kraftway employs over 45 qualifies engineers with more than 70 key technology certificates. In 2006 Kraftway’s software product became the finalist of Microsoft OEM Hardware Solutions Technology Innovation Partner of the Year competition. In 2007 the company obtained a patent for this management software.
