GeoLearning Named to Software 500 for 5th Consecutive Year

GeoLearning Ranks #315 on Software Magazine's 27th Annual Ranking of the World's Largest Software Service Providers

September 22, 2009

GeoLearning, Inc., the leading provider of on-demand learning and performance platforms announces its fifth consecutive inclusion on the Software 500, Software Magazine's list of the world's foremost software and services providers.  GeoLearning was ranked as the 315th largest software company worldwide.

The software 500 is a revenue-based ranking of the world's largest software and services suppliers targeting medium to large enterprises, their IT professionals, software developers and business managers involved in software and services purchasing.  Now in its 27th year, the list includes both private and public companies; 44 percent of the 2009 Software 500 companies are privately held. 

The ranking is based on total worldwide software and services revenue for 2008.  This includes revenues from software licenses, maintenance and support, training and software-related services and consulting.  Suppliers are not ranked on their total corporate revenue, since many have other lines of business, such as hardware.  The financial information was gathered by a survey prepared by King Content Co. and posted at www.Softwaremag.com, as well as from public documents.  "The 2009 Software 500 revenue growth in the software and services industry was healthy, with total Software 500 revenue of $491.3 billion worldwide for 2008, representing 8.8% growth from the previous year," says John P. Desmond, editor of Software Magazine and Softwaremag.com.

"The Software 500 helps CIOs, senior IT managers and IT staff research and create the short list of business partners," Desmond says. "It is a quick reference of vendor viability.  And the online version to be posted soon at www.Softwaremag.com is searchable by category, making it what we call the online catalog to enterprise software."
