Kevin Purcell, Rimini Street’s SVP Global Partners, Alliances & Channels, on how the enterprise software leader is championing optionality for IT roadmaps

Rimini Street is a global leader in third-party support for enterprise applications. In the 20 years since it was founded, Rimini Street has amassed a portfolio of more than 5,900 contracts worldwide, facilitating more than US$9bn in client savings.

It’s often cited as the company that kicked off having third-party support for enterprise software applications, according to its Senior Vice President of Global Partners, Alliances and Channels, Kevin Purcell.

“Our primary support engineers have, on average, more than 20 years of experience,” Kevin begins. “These are folks who come from enterprise software companies to join Rimini Street on our mission.”

As a “global leader in end-to-end enterprise software support management and innovation solutions” — as phrased by Kevin — Rimini Street has a broad remit, allowing it to act not just as a service provider, but as a strategic partner to some of the world’s largest organisations.

This comes as enterprises are met with increasing pressure from software vendors — particularly giants like SAP and Oracle — to migrate to cloud-based, subscription models. These transitions are often costly, disruptive and not always aligned with a customer’s business priorities. Rimini Street offers a compelling alternative: long-term support for existing systems, enabling organisations to delay or avoid forced upgrades and cloud migrations.
