Virtana Delivers 26% Year-Over-Year Profitable Sales Growth in Fiscal 2021

SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Virtana, a leading provider of AI-driven solutions for hybrid cloud management and monitoring, announces 26% year-over-year sales growth in its fiscal year of 2021, as compared with the previous fiscal year. The company also saw a record-breaking fiscal Q4.

"If you take a step back and look at the current big picture macro environment of a Great Resignation, supply-chain disruption, and inflation, digital technologies are a growth-stimulating deflationary impetus," said Kash Shaikh, President and CEO of Virtana. 

Kash continued, "Virtana is firing on all cylinders, and we will enter 2022 with huge momentum. We turned the company profitable within a year. Our record-breaking results show that the company's new profitable growth business model and transformation is set to flourish in any economic environment."

Kash added, "An IDC survey of CEOs cited that most CEOs intend to sustain or increase IT spending, primarily through digital transformation, for years to come. Our results demonstrate Virtana is set to benefit from the rapid investments needed for businesses to keep up with the multi-cloud management and digital transformation initiatives."
