harmon.ie Achieves Record 71% Year-Over-Year Growth in 2012

harmon.ie®, the platform-independent social software company, today announced record financial results for the year ending December 31, 2012 with 71% year-over-year sales growth for its social software for the enterprise. harmon.ie optimizes the use of enterprise collaboration platforms, such as Microsoft® SharePoint®, IBM (News - Alert) Connections and Google Docs™, by bringing them into the email client, mobile devices and the cloud.

More than 200 enterprises, including Citi, DuPont and BAE Systems (News - Alert), purchased harmon.ie for the enterprise in 2012, in order to help their business users improve productivity on the platforms they already own, such as SharePoint from their email client, iPads and iPhones.

"harmon.ie has a social business vision which is platform-independent across Microsoft, IBM and Google (News - Alert) platforms," said Yaacov Cohen, co-founder and social CEO of harmon.ie. "This new approach is already delivering unprecedented business flexibility to enterprises as they can pick and choose collaboration offerings from different vendors, yet deliver a consistent user experience across these competing platforms. Our stellar annual results represent a strong validation of our corporate vision."

As of the end of 2012, 1.3 million enterprise users have subscribed to the harmon.ie social business vision and access SharePoint and Google Docs from Outlook, Notes, iPhones and iPads.
