Waterloo Maple Inc. is a privately held Canadian software company, headquartered in Waterloo, Ontario. It is best known as the manufacturer of the Maple computer algebra system.
Waterloo Maple presently operates under the trademarked name Maplesoft.
It was first incorporated under the name Waterloo Maple Software in April 1988 by Keith Geddes and Gastón Gonnet, who were both then professors in the Symbolic Computation Group, a part of the computer science department (now the School of Computer Science) at the University of Waterloo.
From July 1998 to August 2003, the headquarters of Waterloo Maple was located in the former Seagram Museum in Waterloo, which was itself the former location of the original Seagram distillery.
Maplesoft has a European office, Maplesoft GmbH, located in Zug, Switzerland.
Maple is an excellent tool for performing or verifying tedious and error-prone computations, but it is not a substitute for mathematical knowledge and intuition.
Since Maple V Release 2 is in a public locker, once you have located an appropriate workstation and logged in, you must attach the locker to your file system.

WaterlooMaple's leadership in advanced math software is supported by maintaining a high level of familiarity with new graduates and by providing the tools used by the world's most respected researchers and academics.
Maple was born in an academic setting and, for nearly 20 years, WaterlooMaple has continued to give special attention to the needs of students, teachers and researchers.
