You can’t sell to companies if you don’t know who they are. Despite millions of downloads, Prisma needed to figure out who was behind the numbers. With Scarf’s Strategic Insights Report, they are now able to see just how many of their users are actually from major companies, including many Global Fortune 2000. “Using our own data and the Scarf Strategic Insights Report, we found a lot of our recent sign ups are companies that are able to make database-related infrastructure changes much faster” said Nitin Gupta, COO at Prisma. See how Prisma is using Scarf data to fuel their project-led growth: https://lnkd.in/d38A9fZ4

Scarf Systems, Inc. officially turns 5 today! 🥳 It’s a good time to reflect on how far Scarf has come in that time, from an idea to a side project and into the company it is today. We’ve championed open source usage analytics from a taboo and fringe practice to a standard practice adopted by largest OSS foundations, projects, and companies. We’ve provided users and customers visibility into billions of open source downloads, and helped business building in the open become more efficient than ever before - all without compromising end-user privacy or security. Open source is growing faster than ever and our lean team of 16 will continue to work around the clock to promote efficient and sustainable commercial open source businesses everywhere. Lots of great work ahead!
