ROCHESTER, N.Y., Feb. 07, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Calero Software, a leading global provider of Communications and Cloud Lifecycle Management (CLM) software, announced that it achieved record revenues and growth in 2018, driven by strategic investments and expanded global reach. Calero is a portfolio company of Riverside Partners, a Boston-based private equity firm.
"2018 was a landmark year for Calero on all fronts," said Calero's President and CEO Joe Pajer. "Our investments in global expansion, technology innovation, enhanced operational capabilities, and personnel resources have propelled Calero to the forefront of the industry. As a result, many new customers, including over 15 Fortune 500 companies who became new customers in 2018, have made the decision to trust Calero with their telecom, mobility and cloud expense management needs. We are looking forward to a very strong 2019, where we will continue to accelerate our investments in new products and customer service."

Calero's global expansion strategy has made several significant strides. The company acquired and successfully integrated two leading European telecom expense management providers. Calero has also invested heavily in organic growth in the region, including the hiring of its first Managing Director for EMEA. The EMEA team has already successfully deployed and supports multinational customers, and is building upon its historic success in the region with the addition of new European-based regional and global companies. Calero also launched its annual Calero World Online from London, hosting the largest audience of customers and partners to-date.
Throughout 2018, the company completed meaningful product and technology advancements to enhance clients' visibility into their telecommunications, mobility, and cloud services programs, enabling greater cost reductions while optimizing business operations.

With product enhancements and continued investment in automation and other operational capabilities, Calero continues to set a new industry standard for operational excellence, ensuring best-in-class service for its global customer base while managing billions in telecom spend and over a million mobile devices on behalf of customers.
