In the middle of a crisis that has forced most companies to move workers home, being able to manage SaaS usage in this way is growing increasingly significant.<\/p>\n<p>Today the company announced a $75 million Series F.&nbsp;<a class=\"crunchbase-link\" href=\"https:\/\/crunchbase.com\/organization\/warburg-pincus\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-type=\"organization\" data-entity=\"warburg-pincus\">Warburg Pincus&nbsp;<\/a>&nbsp;led the way with participation from existing investors Bain Capital Ventures, Accel, Greycroft Partners, Flybridge Capital Partners, New Amsterdam Growth Capital and e.ventures. Today&rsquo;s round brings the total raised to $187 million, according to the company.<\/p>\n<p>While CEO&nbsp;<a class=\"crunchbase-link\" href=\"https:\/\/crunchbase.com\/person\/david-politis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-type=\"person\" data-entity=\"david-politis\">David Politis&nbsp;<\/a>&nbsp;acknowledges the gravity of the current situation, he also recognizes that giving companies a way to manage their SaaS usage is more pertinent than ever. &ldquo;What has happened in the last two months has been terrible for the world, but in some crazy way it has just made what we do a lot more relevant,&rdquo; Politis told&nbsp;<a class=\"crunchbase-link\" href=\"https:\/\/crunchbase.com\/organization\/techcrunch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-type=\"organization\" data-entity=\"techcrunch\">TechCrunch&nbsp;<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"piano-inline-promo\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<p>He says the pandemic has really accelerated the market opportunity because of the reliance on cloud services and the services his company provides.<\/p>\n<p>Those services began as an operational layer on top of G Suite. Later it added support for Office 365 and in 2016 it moved<a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2019\/02\/05\/bettercloud-can-now-manage-any-saas-application\/\">&nbsp;to more general SaaS management<\/a>. It now offers direct integrations into multiple SaaS apps including Box, Dropbox, Salesforce, Zendesk and more. The set of tools in Bettercloud gives IT control over security, configuration, spend optimization and auditability across SaaS applications.<\/p>\n<p>In normal times after a large Series F round, we might be talking about this being the last round before an IPO, but Politis isn&rsquo;t ready to commit to that just yet, especially in this economy. He does say, however, that he&rsquo;s in it for the long haul and sees an opportunity to build a long-term, sustainable company.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The last couple of months I&rsquo;ve been thinking about this a lot, and when you take a $75 million round at the stage you&rsquo;re not doing that because you want to sell the business. You&rsquo;re doing that because you want to build something and build something really special,&rdquo; he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tags\">\n<div><strong>See Campaign: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bettercloud.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.bettercloud.com\/<\/a><br \/><b>Contact Information:<\/b><br \/>Ron Miller<\/p>\n<p><b>Tags:<\/b><br \/><a href=\"\"><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/news-category\/wire\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Wire<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/global-regions\/united-states\/\" rel=\"category tag\">United States<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/language\/english\/\" rel=\"category tag\">English<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"image\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"cwdfimg\" \/><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Contact Information:<\/h3>\n<p>Ron Miller<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BetterCloud&nbsp;gives IT visibility into its SaaS tools providing the means to discover, manage and secure those tools.
