AppSense Closes Fiscal Year 2010 with Record Revenue and Company Growth

With new offices in New York City and San Jose, California, the company also increased its workforce by 34 percent globally, going from 168 to 225 employees. Over the next year AppSense plans to enlarge its employee base by 40 percent, growing to approximately 315 employees by the end of the fiscal year 2011. Many of the new employees have been recruited as consultants and trainers in the new AppSense professional services division. This division provides training and accreditation services to AppSense's business partners, as well as supporting partners and customers through a global team of consultants.

"The growth we have experienced over the past year has been phenomenal and we show no signs of slowing down," said Darron Antill, COO of AppSense. "The number of new customers making the clear business decision to use AppSense, and existing customers expanding their use of our solutions, is solid proof that user virtualization is an essential technology for any mid- to large-sized desktop deployment, whether it be physical, virtual or in the cloud. User virtualization is fast becoming an independent category in the desktop space and we look forward to further solidifying our place as the leader in the user virtualization market in the years to come."

AppSense also experienced a record year with its channel partners, helping them provide integrated solutions to their customers with a 120 percent increase in the number of partners completing their education program.

"AppSense is dedicated to the channel and continues to develop its channel program so that it delivers its partners with the skills necessary to be successful," said Pete Rawlinson, head of marketing at AppSense. "We hope to increase the number of senior consultants in the channel by a further 200 percent in the next year, and will continue to provide our existing and future partners with comprehensive education, support and training for our innovative user virtualization technology."

Additionally, AppSense was named the Citrix Ready Solution Partner of the Year, received a five-star rating by Everything Channel in the 2010 Partner Program Guide and joined the Microsoft System Center Alliance. Over the past year, AppSense has been recognized with a number of industry awards including Best Desktop Virtualization Solution in the Best of VMworld awards, Desktop Software Product of the Year at the Techworld Awards, and the Silver award in the Desktop Virtualization category for the SearchServerVirtualization.com 2009 Product of the Year Awards.
