(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
SAN FRANCISCO, July 11, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FinancialForce, the leading
cloud ERP for the new services economy, is named to the Forbes 2017 Cloud 100
list, the definitive list of the top 100 private cloud companies in the world,
published by Forbes in collaboration with Bessemer Venture Partners.
FinancialForce will be celebrated tonight in San Francisco at The Cloud 100
Celebration, an exclusive event hosted by Bessemer Venture
Partners, Forbes and Salesforce Ventures. The celebration is attended by the
CEOs of the public cloud companies and the CEOs named to The Cloud 100 and The
20 Rising Stars lists.
"Following years of strong growth and innovation in cloud ERP, FinancialForce is
honored to be recognized by Bessemer Venture Partners, Forbes and Salesforce
Ventures as a top 100 private cloud company in the world," said Tod Nielsen, CEO
of FinancialForce. "Being named to the Forbes 2017 Cloud 100 list further
underscores our passion and unwavering commitment to helping our customers
thrive at speed and achieve their own success."
As part of the rigorous selection process for the Forbes 2017 Cloud 100, Forbes'
data partner, Bessemer Venture Partners, received hundreds of submissions from
the top cloud startups. With that data, the Forbes Cloud 100 judge panel, made
up of a majority of public cloud company CEOs, was then responsible for
selecting and ranking the top 100 companies from all over the world. The
evaluation process involved four factors: estimated valuation (30%), operating
metrics (20%), people & culture (15%) and market leadership (35%), which the
judge panel then weighed to select, score and rank the winners.
"Our inaugural Cloud 100 list showed the tech and venture capital community just
how many standout private cloud companies there are to watch, and this year's
list is no exception," said Forbes editor of the Cloud 100 list Alex Konrad.
"Forbes has a keen eye for businesses, and combining that with Bessemer Venture
Partners and Salesforce Ventures' deep knowledge of the cloud industry, any
company's inclusion on the Forbes 2017 Cloud 100 list is cause to celebrate."
"These companies are leading the cloud technology revolution!" said Byron
Deeter, a top cloud investor and partner at Bessemer Venture Partners. "The
founders and teams behind the Forbes 2017 Cloud 100 companies are of another
caliber and we are beyond excited to celebrate the hard work and enormous value
these companies are creating as they propel the trillion-dollar software
industry forward."
"The business opportunity for cloud computing is tremendous as the spend on
cloud computing and the rate of adoption continues to grow and advance the
ecosystem," said John Somorjai, EVP Salesforce Ventures and Corporate
Development. "We're thrilled to highlight the potential of these top-tier
private companies in the field and see where they take their businesses and the
economies around the world."
The Forbes 2017 Cloud 100 and 20 Rising Stars lists are published online
at www.forbes.com/cloud100 and will appear in the July 27, 2017 issue
of Forbes magazine.
