"The high caliber of Fortune 500 companies now using Kentico to drive their web content management efforts is a testament to the power, speed, and usability of our platform," said Kentico Marketing Evangelist Petr Passinger. "But it goes beyond the technology. It speaks to Kentico's dedication to the marketplace and to ensuring that customers are as successful as humanly possible."

Since 2009, Kentico has seen Fortune 500 adoption of its all-in-one CMS, E-Commerce, and Online Marketing platform grow from 6% to 14.8% — a significant achievement given the number of players in the hotly-contested CMS marketplace.

"It's gratifying to see growing adoption of Kentico software among Fortune 500 companies around the globe," said Kentico Founder and CEO Petr Palas. "While our goal is to put web content management within reach of any company that wants it, I can't help but feel a special pride when more and more of the biggest and most well-known companies in the world are using Kentico and experiencing great results."
