Financial Thumbnail: Shunra is a profitable entity that is Venture Financed.

Product/Business Description: Shunra provides visibility into how a critical application will perform. For instance, if a financial trade must be completed on NASDAQ the response time of the application used by the trader is of paramount importance. Shunra has predictive intelligence that enables an IT Professional to know if the Trader will encounter a delay so that they can take action to resolve the issue before the end user is impacted. In an environment where a millisecond of delay can cost millions Shunra is essential.

Markets: Over 50% of the Fortune 100 deploy Shunra Technology. Our customers are cross vertical and include sophisticated IT organizations with mission critical applications where users access the application over the web. Most Technology vendors (MicroSoft, EMC, SAP, Cisco, Dell, HP) use Shunra to understand, in advance, the performance of their software and hardware before it is purchased by their own customers.

Latest Achievements: Shunra and HP have jointly delivered to the market the only technology that enables application development organizations to architect critical applications with a full understanding of how the end user will “experience” the product. Together we give development teams a method of “seeing” the application as if they were the ones using the technology. This is a transformational change in how applications are developed.

Commentary: The company has been successful because of a disciplined approach to understanding painful problems encountered by our customers and developing software solutions to these critical business issues. This, while applying a conservative approach to building the company ensures profitable and sustainable growth.
