Interactive Intelligence Reports Third-Quarter 2012 Financial Results
Growth of cloud business continues to be strong with cloud-based orders increasing 53 percent to 41 percent of total orders.
- (1888PressRelease) November 08, 2012 - DUBAI, United Arab Emirates -- Interactive Intelligence Group Inc. (Nasdaq: ININ), a global provider of unified IP business communications solutions, has announced operating results for its three and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2012.
"We continue to execute well against our operating plan," said Interactive Intelligence founder and CEO, Dr. Donald Brown. "We are successfully moving up-market, winning business with some of the world's largest global companies, and continuing to take advantage of the market shift toward cloud-based contact center deployments. The number of new cloud-based customers in the third quarter of 2012 was the highest in our company's history and it's growing at a rate that's significantly outpacing the market.
"The shift to our cloud model is accelerating and will continue to result in more revenues being deferred to future quarters leading to greater overall growth of recurring revenues," continued Brown. "We remain committed to investing in our sales, marketing and development infrastructure to accelerate the momentum in the business, which we expect to lead to further market share gains and increased shareholder value. Given our strong and growing pipeline of opportunities worldwide in the fourth quarter, we now expect cloud-based orders to represent more than 35 percent of total orders in 2012, up from our previous expectation of 30 to 32 percent. We are maintaining our full-year total order growth target of 20 percent."
