Corporate Overview

Confio Software develops software to improve the performance of business critical databases and the applications that depend on them. Built on an industry best-practice Wait-Time methodology, Confio’s Igniter™ Suite improves service levels for IT end users, and reduces total cost of operating IT infrastructure across a multi-vendor database environment.

IT managers and their organizations spend inordinate amounts of time responding to application performance issues, often in crisis mode.  Increasing pressure is placed on them to improve service levels for both internal and external customers.   Without tools to find the actual root cause of problems, improvement projects spend billions of dollars on hardware, software licenses, and consulting projects that do not improve user service levels.

The Confio Igniter Suite, covering DB2, Oracle, SQL Server and Sybase databases, and Java/J2EE applications, gives IT managers the capability to unlock the value of their IT systems, ensure service levels and avoid unnecessary expenditures.  Customers worldwide have achieved ROI in excess of 800% using Ignite to identify critical problems and manage their resolution.

Beginning with development of first licensed software products in 2002, Confio established reference customers in 2003, and closed an initial round of external financing in March 2004.  2005 marked a year of rapid growth for the company and its Ignite for Oracle product.  2006 brought the launch of the Ignite for Java component of the Suite. 2007 saw the rapid expansion to cover SQL Server, DB2 and Sybase databases.

Confio Software products today are used by customers in North America, Europe, South America, Africa and Asia whose mission includes getting most value out of their business critical Oracle and Java systems.  Customers are reached directly through the Confio salesforce and through a network of partners in the US and internationally.

Confio is privately held. Its operations are based out of its headquarters in Boulder, Colorado, where it enjoys access to the concentration of technology and software expertise in this vibrant, young, outdoor oriented community.
