When people in the virtualization community talk about P2V, the name PlateSpin comes up time and time again. They’ve been one of the dominant players in this space for quite some time.

For the third year in a row, the company was named one of the fastest growing IT companies in Canada according to the 2007 edition of the Branham300, the definitive listing of leading Canadian ICT companies. Now in its fourteenth year, the Branham300 highlights the top Canadian IT companies based on worldwide revenues. PlateSpin moved up 51 places to the number 130 spot on the Branham300.

PlateSpin also ranked second on the Backbone Magazine Top 20 Movers and Shakers list. This list represents those companies that showed the most significant increases in their rankings compared to the previous year’s list.

Pleased to be recognized by the Branham Group, PlateSpin Founder and CEO Stephan Pollack had this to say: “The rapid growth that we have achieved is a testament to the quality of our solutions and our ability to execute on a global scale. Some 25% of the Fortune 500 use PlateSpin products and our technology is used in some of the largest data centers in the world. With the recent introduction of our next generation disaster recovery (DR) solution, which provides an affordable and easy to implement alternative to traditional DR solutions for all the x86 servers in the data center, PlateSpin is well-positioned to extend its leadership in the virtualization market in 2007.”
