DocuWare demonstrated continued global growth in both customer numbers and revenues in FY23. The company releases its financial results and states the reasons behind a key strategic acquisition in fiscal year 2023.
Overall growth and continued cloud adoption DocuWare experienced an impressive 17 percent global revenue growth in FY23. This was driven by significant demand for cloud-based solutions, reflected in a 31 percent growth in Cloud revenue. The company continues to offer feature parity between cloud and on-premises versions, and it continues to see a small and steady revenue growth here too. The company has reported a surge in new customer adoption, with 3,000 new customers worldwide over the past financial year. Of these, 85 percent of new customers opted for cloud solutions, indicating a growing demand for the accessibility, flexibility and scalability of a cloud- based ECM that meets best-in-class security and compliance standards. The company now serves a global customer base of 19,000 customers who use cloud, on-premises or hybrid deployments.
In a joint statement, DocuWare presidents, Dr Michael Berger and Max Ertl commented, “Our FY23 results, clearly demonstrate the growing value of ECM solutions like ours on the global business stage. We are proud of the strong global presence we have established, and that our growth continues in an upward direction. With technology investments and AI at the forefront of our long-term plans, we are looking forward to an even stronger year ahead.”
