More than 2,000 enterprises, government agencies and other organizations worldwide use EnterpriseDB products and services to successfully deploy Postgres, reduce their reliance on costly traditional databases and slash databases costs by 80 percent or more.

“Enterprises and governments are finding they don’t need to pay the high costs of Oracle and our software has been increasingly recognized for its strength supporting mission and non-mission critical applications for a fraction of the cost,” said Sean Doherty, senior vice president, worldwide sales and business development at EnterpriseDB. “Hopla Software will be a valuable partner as demand for Postgres continues to increase.”
