During Q1 FY15, Coupa again achieved record success as it grew its customer subscription revenue for a 25th consecutive quarter while also posting a rise in both new customer deployments and customer renewals.

Fueled by increased enterprise demand for its cloud-based solutions, Coupa in Q1 increased its worldwide sales force by 25 percent to support its global presence in 18 total countries. Coupa also widened its global ootprint by expanding into key new countries including Singapore, Sweden and Switzerland.

To meet the evolving product and technology needs of today's global enterprises, Coupa also enhanced its cloud platform in Q1 with the unveiling of a new mobile expense management solution and its acquisition of ZenPurchase's real-time procurement collaboration technology.

"On the strength of our cloud-based savings-as-a-service platform, we again achieved record company performance in our first quarter and continued expanding our business on a global scale," said Rob Bernshteyn, CEO of Coupa. "We remain singularly focused on delivering real, measurable business results to our enterprise customers and will continue working tirelessly to help companies save millions of dollars in previously unmanaged spend."

  • During the first quarter, more than one new customer per week went live on Coupa's systems and achieved record-breaking time to value with average deployments of 4 to 6 months.
