4% employee growth in 12 months
Our take
As the cloud computing landscape develops, traditional networking technology has quickly become inefficient and outdated. Alkira solves this problem with its innovative networking tools for cloud and multi-cloud environments.
The company's Network as a Service (NaaS) model has proven extremely popular, and this has allowed it to scale rapidly. Its main challenge continues to be competing with similar providers, although its recent recognition as a leader in the space highlights the value of its extensive roster of solutions.
On top of this, the company's impressive roster of enterprise clients, considerable funding to the sum of over $170 million, and respected founding team all contribute to a business edge in the cloud software space. The company was named 25th on the Deloitte Fast 500 list 2024, and has seen exponential growth over the last 3 years, indicating that it is at the top of its game.
