The simplicity, wealth of customization options and its reach through the wide network of dealers, who were entitled to 50% of the sales income, made it possible for the 1C:Accounting software to become the most widespread accounting program across Russia and former USSR states.[4]

In 1999, the first game developed by 1C was published - Konung: Legends of the North. 1C also acquired MaddoxGames [pl] company.[5] In 2006, 1C announced that their trademark was considered "well-known" by Rospatent as an intellectual property status in Russia.[6]

In 2008, 1C declared its plan of transforming into a large multisectoral holding company. Part of its growth strategy was establishing joint ventures with leading and promising enterprises within the IT industry.[7]

In May 2005, 1C bought Cenega [cs; pl] (an abbreviation of "Central European games"), a Prague- and Warsaw-based publisher and distributor. This arm was rebranded 1C Publishing EU in May 2007.[8] 1C Publishing EU used the trade name 1C Entertainment from late 2018 until June 2022.[9][10]

In April 2016, 1C bought out 27.06% in Megaplan and increased its stake in the company to 99%. In August of the same year, a controlling stake was acquired in the restaurant business automation service Quick Resto. In October, 1C announced the purchase of a controlling stake in the developer of the cloud-based CRM system amoCRM.[15]

In September 2016, 1C together with ASCON, created the Renga Software company - the Russian developer of the Renga integrated BIM system.[16]

In April 2022, 1C Poland was sanctioned by Poland to reduce the company's income and "thus indirectly reduces the revenues of the Russian Federation budget, from which aggression against Ukraine is financed."[17]

In May 2024, Ukraine's military intelligence agency claimed to have successfully carried out a cyberattack on the company, preventing Russian users from accessing business tools and databases.[18]
