Metalogix Software, the trusted provider of content life cycle management solutions for Microsoft SharePoint, Exchange and cloud platforms, has announced that Inc. magazine ranked Metalogix on its 31st annual Inc. 500, an exclusive ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. The list represents the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy – America's independent entrepreneurs.

"On behalf of our more than 5 000 loyal customers, partner network and employees, I am thrilled to accept this Inc. 500 Fastest Growing Companies honour. This recognition highlights our dedication to helping organisations overcome the challenges they face in managing the staggering growth of content, estimated to reach 35 zettabytes by 2020," says Steven Murphy, CEO, Metalogix. "Our content management solutions, which improve how organisations organise, store and access content, drove 2011 revenue growth that put Metalogix in the top five of all software companies in the Inc. 500 list. We thank all of our customers, partners and employees who made this record growth possible."

Says George Amoils, Director at Soarsoft, distributor of Metalogix solutions in Africa: "This accolade reinforces our confidence in the Metalogix toolsets and complements the growth in customer demand for 'intelligent' solutions that can enhance Microsoft's Messaging and Collaboration platforms. Over the past few years, our experience of the functionality and support for Metalogix's product sets has left us in no doubt as to the quality and innovation in the toolsets, and we expect this growth trend to continue for the foreseeable future. We have completed many successful projects with Metalogix solutions, and their ranking as one of the US' fastest growing companies is yet another indication of their product excellence."

Within the Inc. 500 list, Metalogix is the only Washington, DC-based software company, the only content management company, and the only SharePoint solution company to qualify based on revenue growth.

The 800% growth of Metalogix between 2008 and 2011 was driven by a suite of solutions that enhance and extend SharePoint – the content and collaboration platform of choice for modern enterprises. Metalogix Migration Manager for SharePoint is the de facto standard to upgrade SharePoint, and consolidate file shares and disparate content stores into SharePoint. Metalogix StoragePoint is the leading Remote BLOB Storage (RBS) solution to decrease SharePoint storage costs. Metalogix Replicator for SharePoint is the trend-setting replication solution to synchronise SharePoint content in real time across multiple environments.

"Now, more than ever, we depend on Inc. 500 companies to spur innovation, provide jobs and drive the economy forward," said Eric Schurenberg, Editor, Inc. Magazine. "Growth companies, not large corporations, are where the action is."
