Growth in the use of UC, especially video conferencing, for remote work fuels the need to monitor and optimize UC environments
AUSTIN, Texas, July 14, 2020 — Vyopta, the leading provider of UC monitoring and analytics, today announced significant growth in revenue, customers, talent, and product innovation since it announced $7.5 million in funding from Elsewhere Partners in 2019. As enterprises around the world dramatically increased the use of UC as a Service (UCaaS), especially video conferencing, to collaborate, Vyopta’s sales grew by over 60% year over year in Q2 2020.
The company expanded its team in several key areas and added leading Fortune 500 and Global 2000 companies to its customer base. Vyopta also rolled out many major product and platform enhancements, expanded coverage of major UC vendors, including Zoom, Microsoft, Cisco, BlueJeans by Verizon, Pexip, and more.
“The coronavirus crisis has accelerated the adoption of remote work, telemedicine, and distance learning,” said Alfredo Ramirez, CEO of Vyopta. “For the first time, CEOs and other C-Suite executives need to ensure that UC technology is being proactively monitored and managed in order to attain planned business outcomes.”
Customer and Team Growth
Enterprises and large organizations gravitated to Vyopta to optimize UC across multiple platforms. In the past year, many of the world’s largest organizations started using Vyopta and the company counts over 70 of the Global 2000 and over 30 of the Fortune 500 as customers. Some of Vyopta’s key customer industries include finance, federal government, technology, healthcare, education, and pharmaceutical, including several enterprises pursuing a vaccine for Covid-19.
Vyopta invested in strategic hiring growth over the past 12 months, with a focus on Customer Success, Sales, and Marketing. Dan Rourke, who previously held leadership positions at Spredfast (now Khoros) and HomeAway (now Expedia) joined the company as Vice President of Customer Success and tripled the size of that team. The company also hired Spiceworks (now Spiceworks Ziff Davis) veteran Jonathan Sass to lead the Product Management organization.
Product Innovation
Key product enhancements over the past 12 months include:

Workspace Insights helps track room utilization, reduce inefficient usage, and optimize real estate and technology investments, including supporting social distance reporting and alerts in the office.
