Both the entities would take steps to help their customers strengthen business continuity programs.
Wayne, Pennsylvania based, Assurance Software, Inc. lately announced a merger with ClearView Continuity. The deal allows Assurance expand its Business Continuity Management (BCM) market leadership position and global reach to over 800 customers, with consulting and support services provided on six continents and primary development, sales, and support centers in the US and UK.
Craig Potts, Chief Executive Officer, Assurance Software, stated, “During the last seven months since Assurance Software was created as an independent company, we’ve rapidly established our new identity, underpinned by a renewed commitment to product and service innovation and a relentless dedication to customer success. As we continue to blaze an exciting new path in business continuity, this merger is the next big step.”
Moreover, Craig added, “Our companies are uniquely well suited to each other – Assurance has established a market leadership position, primarily in North America while ClearView has done the same in EMEA and Asia-Pacific. Assurance and ClearView have numerous technology and cultural synergies that will allow us to accelerate product innovation and enhance customer value. The union of our companies creates a global powerhouse that I believe will be the go-to partner for companies seeking to mitigate risk and enhance their organization’s resilience.”

Building on recent product innovations and industry-firsts, including the first mobile app for continuity management and the first virtual reality solution for training and awareness, the combined company will invest to accelerate the delivery of industry-leading innovation. In addition to product innovation, both entities will leverage more than 100 years of industry experience across its leadership team to help their customers strengthen their business continuity programs.
