Polycom private since July – please keep us up to date on your success

polycom

Polycom was bought by Siris Capital Group for $2b in July 2016 after a bid by Canadian company Mitel was scrapped. as a private company I’m currently estimating its performance (see my Figure). As with Rackspace and other privatising suppliers – I hope the new company will find a way of keeping us informed on its business and financial performance… and by ‘us’ I mean customers, prospects as well as researchers like me. For the record it claims to have 415k customers for its HQ video conferencing and telephony solutions currently.
