Insight Partners, a venture capital and private equity firm, led a $60m Series C funding round in Esper, a DevOps platform for devices, with participation from Scale Venture Partners, Madrona Ventures and Root Ventures. “For years now, we’ve seen these massive projections about IOT devices of all kinds. But on the ground, enterprises and SMBs are struggling with the reality that large-scale deployments of devices are hard and expensive when you go it alone. Esper has emerged as the only platform that provides modern DevOps capabilities in a package purpose built for intelligent edge devices. And even better, developers tell us that they love using Esper,” Philine Huizing, Insight Partners Vice President.
