Ever wondered about the software that is fueling the game you’re playing? Most likely it is the software company that started it all: Microgramming, responsible for the progressive slot machine, and virtual black jack table, as well as multi-player online poker games.

Microgamming, based on the Isle of Man, is responsible for the first official online casino in 1994. Their viper software is still the most downloaded software on the internet. Contributing to over 100 different online casinos, Microgamming is the leading provider for gaming software.

Formerly known as Prima Poker, they took over a good portion of the poker network and turned it upside down.

But, Microgamming has nothing to do with the poker that has been in the news lately. I was reading on cnet.com about this whole full tilt ponzi scheme, and it is really giving online poker a bad rep, when in all actuality if you know how to pick your sites properly, it should never be an issue.

Ponzi schemes are everywhere, they are even comparing Groupons to one. It’s important because so many people are quick to trust, especially over the internet. Handing out credit card numbers and social security numbers, the internet is one crazy whirlwind of information and insecurity. More than ever it is important to know who and what you’re giving your money to.

By educating yourself about different online casinos you should have no problem feeling good and secure about gambling online.

Playtech Software offers their players many unique features when they are online playing games and one of the most popular feature is RealTime History Check, this allows the player to pause the game that they are playing at the time and rewind what just happened.  This gives the player an added sense of security that the game is being fair and this makes the player more comfortable with the Online Casino. 

Some of the ways that Playtech has had an edge on their competition is they have all of their licensees sign multi-year contracts, this simply keeps the Online Casinos from switching companies at the end of each year.  They also offer some state of the art features that a lot of other software companies do not offer their customers.  Playtech has also been doing alot  of marketing for new customers over in Asia.  Currently Online Gambling is not legal in Asia, however, it is in the works to legalize it very soon.  When it does become legal they are confident that the will have a large portion of the Online Market locked.

Playtech is not the only software company that is growing fast, however, they have taken advantage of the fact that the online market is wide open to new ideas and ways to run their software.  The have taken the time to do research and figure out what can make their product better and they have done so.  They take pride in the fact that create their software in the way that when new technology arrives they can can simply upgrade their product without having to replace it.  This is a major selling point, when they are selling their product because as you know, technology is rapidly growing.

In the world of Online Casino Software there is a huge amount of competition, they are constantly coming out with new styles or even just upgrading the one’s that are already out there.  Playtech Online Casino Software has been around for a while now and this year they are reporting a increase in profits.  The revenues for their 2nd quarter in 2008 are up, they have reported that they received $42 Million in total revenues.  This is a big hike from last years numbers which were in the same quarter total revenues equaled $30 Million. 

Normally how the Online Gaming Industry has worked as far as numbers is that there was a steady drop come the 2nd quarter for all online companies, however, it looks like Playtech has changed that idea.  They pay attention to the upcoming woe’s and make changes that obviously has effected the outcome.  It has been said that Playtech has a niche for finding ways to make money when others have not.  Playtech has many online users and they take care of their customers.  The web sites that they power are scattered all over the Internet and they are always improving their software.

Playtech has already signed up 10 new customers this year and they are going strong by pushing their product not only in advertising but also in many other ways.  They have taken their business over seas all the to Malaysia.  They are also popular with companies in the UK, and they have always taken this approach.  In the Online Gaming Industry you have to utilize the Internet, this means you have access to the whole world, so use it.  Some companies don’t go far from “home” , where ever that may be, but you you have to spread your wigs, if you will and take chances with other countries to excel in this business.

Playtech has also reported that their licensees have continued to win market share in the second quarter as well.  This is also very important and to keep it going.  Playtech has been bringing in more revenue due to their decision to issue 10% more shares of stock.  It has been said that they are going to use this extra revenue/ income to do research in updating and new ways to run their business.  Playtech closed their quarter by signing an agreement with Paramount Digital Entertainment, it is a exclusive licensing agreement.

Real Time Gaming Online Casinos are on the rage, and they haven’t had the publicity that they deserve.  Recently, RTG has been getting some recognition due to their very popular  Progressive Slot Machines.   RTG  has also been getting some notice due to the rising amount of Online Casino licences they have been approving.   One Online Casino that uses their software is  UK- based  the Club World Casino.  Club World Casino recently had a huge Jackpot winner and was won on a Progressive Slot Machine.

The Progressive Slot Machine winner was a Canadian women who while playing the Jackpot Pinatas won $270,000.  Her original bet on the Progressive Slot Machine was only $5, as you could imagine she was very excited.  Canada allows Online Gambling , however, the laws are a pretty vague but this does not keep the Canadian’s from playing the Online Casinos.  They see what they can win and they take the risk.

Another huge payout on a Progressive Slot Machine was $2.25 Million on Cryptologic’s Millionaire’s Club Progressive Slot Machine , and this caused competition between all other software providers.  When players see a big Jackpot from a certain software company they have a tendency to go and try out their web sites.  This is only natural, players want to win and they feel that if someone else has one over there then they can to.  Online Casino Software is a growing industry and every day there are upgrades to the software and the competition is great for the consumer/player. 

Another RTG site that players are flocking to is Rushmore Casino, this name is becoming very popular very fast.  Don’t just take my word for it, go check them out yourselves.  The customer base for this web site is growing so fast they have had to expand their web site almost over night.  RTG  powered Online Casinos have so much to offer their players and their customer service is off the chain.  I don’t  know what the next software is going to be but going by what is going on in the Online Casino Software industry right now, it is going to be something great. Good Luck Gaming..
