Our take
Denver-based EverCommerce is a service commerce platform that offers vertically tailored SaaS solutions for more than half a million global service-based SMBs. Its goal is to accelerate digital transformation across various industries within the service economy, which has proved to have done when considering its recent growth in customers.
The company, which specializes in Home Services, Health Services and Fitness & Wellness Services, serves to accelerate growth, streamline operations and increase retention. By automating these processes, EverCommerce enables clients to focus on simply growing their businesses. Despite increased macroeconomic headwinds in recent years, affecting the marketing services solutions, the company still delivers double-digit growth and solid profitability.
In 2021, EverCommerce acquired DrChrono and through this both companies are able to share their commitment to helping SMEs thrive. In fact, EverCommerce has become somewhat of a beast in its trade having acquired almost 30 companies, multiple in each year. This has enabled it to adopt a broad array of features to offer its growing customer base
