NinjaOne to acquire Dropsuite for $252m.

NinjaOne, an automated endpoint management platform, agreed to acquire Dropsuite, a cloud data backup, archiving, and recovery solutions provider, for $252m. “Dropsuite will help our customers be more successful by extending data protection from the endpoint to SaaS applications, automating and simplifying backup, and filling critical data protection gaps. We are watching the concept of an ‘endpoint’ evolve from a device to a user in real time. The growth of SaaS applications, BYOD, and the move to remote and hybrid work have transformed customer expectations for endpoint management platforms. Organizations must protect and manage not only the personal and professional devices used by customers and employees but also the applications they use,” Sal Sferlazza, NinjaOne CEO and Co-Founder.
