Protect data. Move to the cloud. Digitize your business. Cut costs. Be agile.
These are just a few of the broad-sweeping mandates facing IT leaders everywhere as we move forward into this wobbly post-lockdown economy. IT execs depend on their infrastructure teams to build and optimize the foundation to keep employees productive and customers returning. Storage is an intrinsic part of this foundation.
At Komprise, we are helping customers around the world manage data, not just storage, so that they can save money, protect the user experience and ultimately liberate and monetize the petabytes of unstructured data collected and stored across different technologies in the average enterprise organization.
The year 2021 has been a busy and successful one for us so far, and we owe it to our partners and forward-looking customers to these core achievements mid-year. Read the full Komprise Doubles Revenue in First Half of 2021 press release. Compared with first half of 2020, Komprise realized:
- 97% revenue growth,
- 190% growth of new customers and
- 200% growth in average deal size.
Komprise develops intelligent data management software for file and object data. Our analytics-first approach means you can understand your data – what file types are stored where and usage patterns – and then can create policies to automatically migrate or tier data to the optimal storage technology or cloud data storage. Komprise enables IT organization to save 70% on enterprise storage, backup, and cloud costs.
