The company licenses products like IPSTOR and Virtualtape Library (VTL) to tap this market. Infact, software licensing accounted for 66% of the total revenue during the given period and increased by 15%. Revenue from maintenance and support also continue to grow as the level of service offered slowly began to match the customer expectations and also due to the widespread acceptance of the company’s products.

The storage software market is valued at around $2.5 billion during 2006 with EMC Corporation leading the sector with 26%; the market share of Falcon is just 0.02%. The market is expected to grow by 10% for the next few years as more and more companies are increasing their IT spending in storage replication to avoid data loss due to disaster recovery and improve business continuity planning. Moreover the market is also in its nascent stage with further growth expected to happen in the coming years. These factors tag the company stock as a likely outperformer, and endow it with adequate opportunities to cherish.
