Propel Marks Its Fourth Consecutive Year of Exponential Growth

Revenues and headcount double as the company expands presence in mid-market and enterprise segments

​​Propel, the only product success platform built on the cloud, today announced 100 percent year-over-year revenue growth for fiscal year 2020. The company continued to execute its long-term growth strategy, with mid-market and enterprise segments in MedTech, High Tech and consumer goods driving the majority of new customer revenue. Propel welcomed new customers such as Advanced Sterilization Products, Simplisafe, Vizio and Zume during the year.  

The team doubled in size with key leadership hires across the entire company. Bill Aston joined Propel as Executive Vice President of Sales, Carmine Napolitano as Chief Finance Officer, Chuck Serrin as Vice President of MedTech and Life Sciences Industry Marketing, Dario Ambrosini as Chief Marketing Officer, Kevin Crothers as Vice President of Solution Consulting, Kishore Subramanian as VP Engineering and Mary De Frenchi as Vice President of Customer Success.

Creating a seamless user experience for every person that touches the product record is key to Propel’s success, with the most dedicated customers exceeding 80 percent user adoption rates company-wide. 

“As we enter our fifth year, more and more companies are agreeing with our original vision that product success is a team sport,” said Ray Hein, CEO of Propel. “The most successful product companies are embracing collaboration across their entire organization, resulting in better products and faster time to market.”
