Nextiva has raised $200m at a valuation of $2.7bn.
The vendor said that the investment, from Goldman Sachs, will be used to “accelerate its vision” of connecting businesses’ comms, customer management and business intelligence.
Tomas Gorny, CEO of Nextiva, said: “Goldman Sachs is helping advance our mission, which from day one has been to help businesses grow by giving every company access to powerful business tools.
“Nextiva creates a seamless experience by surfacing insights and learnings from every interaction.
“By doing this, Nextiva enables companies of all sizes and their teams to better understand and serve their customers and accelerate the growth of their business”
Nextiva said its aim is to reduce the number of communication and collaboration applications that businesses are using, claiming that the average company uses between 15 and 25 apps.
It added that the funding will also help it build new routes to market and accelerate its global expansion.
This first external funding round comes at the end of a year where Nextiva hit annualised recurring revenue of $250m.
