Ektron Caps 2009 with Double-Digit Sales Growth
Ektron Inc., a market leader in enterprise Web content management and social software, today announced that it had capped a successful 2009 with sales growth of over 38 percent for the year.
Building on its double-digit growth throughout 2009, Ektron’s exceptional year included the company’s recognition by two Gartner “Magic Quadrants” for both Web content management and Social Software in the Workplace; the launch of government, social media and health practices led by Ektron experts to better service customers in those arenas; and the release of Version 8 of Ektron’s industry-leading Web content management platform.
