Case Study: Appnovation Technologies achieves rapid revenue growth and faster, scalable Drupal deployments with Acquia

Appnovation Technologies and Acquia Provide Comprehensive Open Source IT Services

Appnovation, founded in 2007 as a Drupal shop and now a full-service open source IT firm, needed a reliable way to deliver end-to-end Drupal hosting, support and enterprise-grade solutions as it scaled. After working with multiple hosts, the company sought a single partner to provide 24x7 support, streamlined deployments and the credibility required to win larger clients.

Appnovation consolidated its Drupal business with Acquia in 2011, using Acquia’s Dev Cloud, hosting and support while deepening partner relationships (including Alfresco) to build integrated offerings like osCaddie. The partnership reduced implementation costs, sped deployments, and boosted sales credibility—earning Appnovation Enterprise and Enterprise Select partner status, annual revenue that has doubled since 2011, an Alfresco “Solution of the Year” win, and contributions back to the open source community.
