MONTRÉAL, QC / ACCESS Newswire / August 14, 2025 / Valsoft Corporation Inc. ("Valsoft"), a Montreal-based company specializing in the acquisition and development of vertical market software businesses, is pleased to announce the acquisition of Diffusion Solutions Intégrées Inc. ("Progression"), the company behind ProgressionLIVE, a widely adopted platform that helps service-based businesses streamline operations, improve dispatch, and centralize job data.
ProgressionLIVE is a mobile-friendly, end-to-end solution designed for industries such as HVAC, plumbing, electrical work, construction, and field service.

"ProgressionLIVE is a strong solution built on a deep understanding of its users and their workflows. The team at Progression has developed a platform that delivers real operational value, while keeping things simple for the businesses they serve," said Joe Farruggia, Investment Partner at Valsoft.

Based in Quebec, Progression has been operating since 2006 and is known for its hands-on approach to customer service and product development.
