Gainsight announces a partnership with Japan Cloud, making it easier for companies in the Asia-Pacific region to adopt Gainsight customer success solutions, drive greater net revenue retention, expand accounts, and reduce churn. The partnership represents a full-scale entry into APAC, in response to the rise of new SaaS business models that have ignited the demand for customer success.
Demand for Gainsight software has grown at an accelerated pace in recent years. The company had record revenue growth in its 2022 fiscal year which closed in January. It also expanded its customer base, completed a strategic acquisition of community platform inSided, grew its employee count, and enhanced its products in FY’22, most notably with the launch of Gainsight Essentials, which simplifies and streamlines the adoption of Gainsight CS for companies of all sizes.
APAC represents significant growth potential for Gainsight, which has been selling internationally for several years and has multiple customers in the region.
“Sansan was among Japan’s first companies to apply customer success to maximize long-term value for its users. Partnering with Gainsight helps us digitally transform companies for improved customer health, more efficient implementations, and greater business success. We will advance the use of Gainsight to respond to business changes and further advance our customers’ success and innovation,” says Kei Tomioka, Chief Revenue Officer of Sansan, Inc.
