XebiaLabs Kicks Off 2017 with Triple-Digit Growth in Enterprise DevOps
XebiaLabs, a recognized leader in DevOps and Continuous Delivery
software, today announced that it has completed the year 2016 with
triple-digit growth. XebiaLabs is the only Enterprise DevOps vendor
focused one hundred percent on Continuous Delivery, with its Application
Release Automation (ARA) tools helping large companies accelerate
software delivery and reduce risk.
The company's 2016 revenues were bolstered by accelerated product
innovation and the addition of dozens of marquee clients to an already
broad roster of global enterprise customers. This success was
underscored by leading industry analysts, who rank the company as a top
vendor for the quality of its products and strategic vision.
According to XebiaLabs CEO, Derek Langone, "In 2016, there was a
meaningful increase in the number of large enterprises that recognized
the need for-and the competitive advantage of-accelerated software
delivery. As software has become the primary way that enterprises
interact with their own customers, the need to deliver innovation, value
and high quality user experience has become fundamental to a company's
potential to compete in its respective market. XebiaLabs lives at this
convergence of software and business. We are excited that our focus on
both business and technical value has translated into many new client
relationships and the respect of industry influencers."
