PlateSpin is one of the new breed of start-ups that are thriving in today’s markets; focusing on solving difficult business problems with truly innovative technology. The enterprise datacenter is very complicated and difficult to manage. With shrinking budgets and increased capability expectations, datacenter managers are looking for a change. In March of 2003 PlateSpin Ltd was founded to address these needs. Recognising the changing trends in the datacenter – a move back to virtualisation and consolidation – PlateSpin tackles the challenge of how datacenter managers can more easily leverage the benefits that these trends are promising.

PlateSpin's unique Operating System Portability (OSP) technology allows operating systems, data, and applications to be easily moved between computers from a single point of control. This was the first step for many enterprises to reap real ROI in virtualisation and consolidation. Based on the OSP technology, PlateSpin PowerP2V was released in May of 2004 as the world's first automated server portability solution. The ability to quickly evolve its product offerings has garnered PlateSpin unprecedented worldwide growth.

With the launch of PlateSpin PowerP2V, and the massive momentum that it built, PlateSpin won an International Business Award (Stevie Award) for Best New Company and also was named a finalist in the category of Best New Product. Concurrently, PlateSpin was named as one of the Top 25 "Up and Coming" technology companies by the Branham Group.

“PowerP2V is so far ahead of your competitors …, PowerP2V is the ‘coolest’ product that I've seen since I first started working with virtualisation software ... it really is amazing …” satisfied user.

Starting a successful software company begins with a great idea and a great product, but many companies have stalled by not being responsive to their customer's needs. With a highly skilled product development team, and a close read on the market, PlateSpin is able to release new versions of its products in less than three months; in fact PowerP2V has seen 4 major releases in just 8 months. Its accelerated development schedule is what enables PlateSpin to be so responsive to its customers.

“It's been a pleasure working with your company; your efforts and willingness to go beyond the initial sell have been appreciated and set you above other vendors we work with”, commented one of PlateSpin customers.

This responsiveness is fostering deep customer loyalty and partnership and driving a ten fold customer growth rate over the later half of 2004.

PlateSpin is thriving in a global market by establishing a dedicated group of channel partners that sell and support PlateSpin products. This key part of PlateSpin’s business plan allows for deeper market penetration on all five continents. Additionally, by developing these relationships PlateSpin has been able to win large scale accounts which would not typically engage with newer vendors. These large accounts continue to give PlateSpin a high profile in the market and help to define it as a leader and market trend setter.
