## About

Based in Auckland, New Zealand, and founded in 2016, Portainer.io is a provider of container management solutions. Neil Cresswell (CEO) and Anthony Lapenna are the co-founders of the company. In 2020, Portainer expanded to include support for Kubernetes and Azure ACI as well as retaining full support for Docker & Docker Swarm. In May 2021, Portainer.io raised USD 6 million in Series A funding led by returning investor Bessemer Venture Partners, with participation from investors Movac and Sonar IM.

The company provides an open-source tool for managing containers in the Docker Swarm environment. The open-source community edition of Portainer.io is the universal container management tool with a powerful Kubernetes GUI, as well as support for Docker, Docker Swarm, and Azure ACI, while Portainer Business provides enterprise-level security and control for deploying containers in mission-critical environments.

The company generates revenue through its Portainer Business pricing, which is calculated on the number of container hosts (nodes) in an environment. The price is based on a one-year subscription to Portainer Business.

The company will use the funds from Series A funding raised in May 2021 for worldwide user expansion and product development, including scaling its enterprise offering, Portainer Business, which launched in December 2020.
