AppDirect expands board of directors

"AppDirect is a company that sits at the crossroads of business and technology. Founded in 2009 and headquartered in San Francisco, its purpose is simple to describe but ambitious in scope. It builds and operates a platform where businesses can buy, sell, and manage all sorts of recurring technology services in one place. That means software, cloud services, infrastructure, hardware, and even energy solutions can be handled through a single system rather than being scattered across different vendors and invoices."

"Think of it like a trading post for modern digital tools. Companies come in looking for what they need, and AppDirect provides a marketplace where those services are cataloged, delivered, and kept in order. For sellers, it provides the shelves and the counter to put out their wares. For buyers, it provides clarity and consistency, especially in the messy world of subscription billing and partner management. It is a place where the often complex business of technology distribution is given a more understandable shape."

"They have announced the expansion of its board of directors with the addition of Burt Podbere, CFO at CrowdStrike. AppDirect anticipates crossing the $1 billion threshold in gross annual recurring revenue over the next 18-24 months. AppDirect has been making waves across the tech ecosystem with recent platform acquisitions that fuel its vision to become the everything store for businesses through their partner channel."
