ServiceSource Expands Relationship with Red Hat

ServiceSource®¨ (NASDAQ: SREV), the global leader in recurring revenue management, today announced that it has expanded its relationship with Red Hat, the leading provider of open source solutions. Since 2010, ServiceSource has managed software renewals across five strategic business segments and four global regions for Red Hat. During this period, ServiceSource has doubled its recurring revenue opportunity under management. As part of today’s announcement, Red Hat has enlisted ServiceSource to now manage renewals across their public sector business.

Today, driving consistent revenue growth through recurring revenue and maximizing customer retention requires a relentless focus on customer success across every phase of the customer lifecycle. Working with ServiceSource over the past four years, Red Hat has fostered strategic customer relationships by demonstrating value across its high volume customer base – ultimately helping boost renewal and customer retention rates. ServiceSource has also empowered Red Hat’s channel partners with actionable insights into renewal opportunities.

“In today’s economy dominated by the cloud, subscriptions and pay-per-use models, customers have many options and can churn at a moment’s notice. As such, Red Hat has placed a relentless focus on maintaining high levels of customer engagement, satisfaction and retention across its customer base,” said Essam Bahsali, director of Global Renewals, Red Hat.

“ServiceSource’s experience, and best practices and results have played a key role in our customer success and engagement with channel partners, making them a logical choice to now manage our public sector business,” said Paul Smith, vice president and general manager of North America Public Sector, Red Hat.

“Red Hat has become the world’s open source leader by demonstrating value to its customers across every stage of the lifecycle – spanning acquisition, onboarding, adoption and renewals,” said Jay Ackerman, ServiceSource Head of Worldwide Sales and Customer Success. “Working with ServiceSource, Red Hat is well-positioned to focus on new sales opportunities while expanding recurring revenues from existing customers.”
