PHOENIX, AZ--(Marketwire - October 21, 2008) - Infusionsoft, the leader in marketing automation software
for small businesses, today announced its inclusion on the Software
Magazine's Software 500 ranking of the world's largest software and service
providers, now in its 26th year. Infusionsoft was ranked in the top ten
companies with software revenue of $5 - $10 million.
"The 2008 Software 500 results show that revenue growth in the software and
services industry was healthy, with total Software 500 revenue of $451.8
billion worldwide for 2007 representing 14.7% growth from the previous
year," says John P Desmond, editor of Software Magazine and Softwaremag.com
"We have added over 100 new companies to the list this year. We're seeing
strong growth from more companies based outside the U.S., especially from
systems integration and outsourcing services firms based in India."
"Total employee head count was a modest 1.3% increase from the last year.
Sectors seeing the highest rates of employee growth included Software as a
Service, Search/Portal tools, Supply Chain/Manufacturing, Legacy System
Renewal/Integration and Database," Desmond says.
"The Software 500 helps CIOs, senior IT managers and IT staff research
create the short list of business partners," Desmond says. "It is a quick
reference of vendor viability. And the online version to be posted soon at
http://www.Softwaremag.com is searchable by category, making it what we
call the online catalog to enterprise software."
Some 42% of the 2007 Software 500 companies are privately held.
"Infusionsoft's inclusion in the Software 500 list is a testament to the
rate at which we are growing as small businesses partner with us to grow
their companies more quickly and easily," said Clate Mask, CEO of
Infusionsoft. "This ranking marks our evolution from a quickly growing
small company into the leagues of successful, established software
vendors."
The Software 500 is a revenue-based ranking of the world's largest software
and services suppliers targeting medium to large enterprises, their IT
professionals, software developers and business managers involved in
software and services purchasing.

the digital publication.
The ranking is based on total worldwide software and services revenue for
2007. This includes revenues from software licenses, maintenance and
support, training and software-related services and consulting. Suppliers
are not ranked on their total corporate revenue, since many have other
lines of business, such as hardware. The financial information was gathered
by a survey prepared by King Content Co. and posted at
http://www.Softwaremag.com, as well as from public documents.
