Veeam Software continued its growth during the third quarter of 2011.

Total bookings revenue grew 181 percent in Q3 of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010, and new license bookings revenue increased 175 percent over that same period.

The company unveiled the next version of its product, Veeam Backup & Replication v6, which extends its lead in VM backup. Veeam also added 5,000 new customers in the quarter.

"Veeam continues to push the envelope in developing innovative technology, which is a key to our continued growth," said Ratmir Timashev, Veeam President and CEO. "The new enhancements in our already industry-leading Veeam Backup & Replication attest to our ongoing commitment to provide our customers with the best in data protection designed specifically for the virtual server world.  Also contributing to our outstanding growth are the strong employee and partner teams we have built. Both are dedicated to meeting – and exceeding – customer expectations. All these factors combine to keep Veeam in a winning position as we move into the final quarter of 2011."
