SUNNYVALE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#fieldservicemanagement—KloudGin, the leading provider of AI cloud-based field service and asset management solutions, today announced it has closed an $8.2 million Series A funding round from Cloud Apps Capital Partners. Andy Stinnes, Venture Partner of Cloud Apps Capital Partners, will join KloudGin’s board of directors. The funding will be used to accelerate the company’s growth and support digital transformation and customer experience in verticals such as energy and utilities, telecom, oil and gas, manufacturing, and other industrial and commercial service markets.

Founded by a group of former Oracle executives, the KloudGin platform combines field service and asset management based on a single-cloud architecture that reduces costs and increases reliability and capability by connecting customers, employees and assets with AI powered access to information on any device. Built for the workers who use it most, KloudGin enables companies to reimagine their processes, customer experience and worker productivity to meet the challenges of today and the demands of tomorrow.

KloudGin’s focus on last-mile field worker productivity and end-customer engagement has attracted a variety of enterprise and municipal utility customers including California Water Service. “KloudGin’s mobile field service, asset management, and connected customer solutions enabled Cal Water to measurably improve the efficiency and user experience for our customers and employees,” said Michael Luu, Vice President of Customer Service and CIO, California Water Service. “The KloudGin platform allows us to quickly and effectively schedule our field crews and connect in near real-time with our two million customers.”

“Our suite of products is helping companies address the challenges of managing aging infrastructure and field service operations by allowing customers to quickly create digital-native processes, customer experiences and worker productivity tools that return immediate ROI while unlocking new revenue streams and business models,” said Vikram Takru, co-founder and CEO of KloudGin. “By eliminating traditional information and process silos we enable existing business models to morph to serve new market opportunities and combat competitive threats.“

KloudGin offers the right solution at the perfect time.”
