Nine Lives Media Names Netgain to the Talkin’ Cloud 100

Second-Annual Report Lists The World’s Top 100 Cloud Service Providers (CSPs)
June 20, 2012 – Netgain ranks among the world’s top 100 cloud service providers (CSPs), according to Nine Lives Media’s second-annual Talkin’ Cloud 100 report. The top 100 CSPs generated more than $2.3 billion in combined cloud services revenues for 2011, up nearly 46 percent from 2010, according to the Talkin’ Cloud 100 report.

Netgain, which Talkin’ Cloud cites as one of the best-known cloud companies in the healthcare vertical, delivers private cloud solutions for physician practices and rural and community hospitals throughout the United States.

“We’re thrilled to be named among some of the best cloud providers in the world,” said Scott Warzecha, President  & Founder of Netgain. “We’re afforded this opportunity in the healthcare market because of our focus on the security regulations in the industry.  Our private cloud solutions provide a greater level of security and control than most of the public cloud offerings.”
