Otta's take
Sam Franklin
CEO of Otta
Infoblox is widely recognized as a market leader in the security and networking space, particularly in DNS, DHCP and IP address management (DDI). About 70% of the Fortune 500 use Infoblox’s solutions, including Deloitte, GlaxoSmithKline, Nestle, PayPal, Pfizer, and Samsung.
The company has been around since 1999, but a 2016 acquisition by Vista Equity Partners helped bring new investment. Since then, Infoblox has invested heavily in developing next-gen, cloud native applications that the shift to hybrid and remote working has rendered incredibly valuable. It’s been able to open up offices in 21 countries and continuously expand its workforce.
After its latest round of funding led by Warburg Pincus, one of the most active growth investors in enterprise technology and cloud-based platforms, the company’s position as a market leader looks secure.
