CEO Commentary

Docebo CEO and founder Claudio Erba said, “The strong momentum that we have experienced throughout 2021 continued in the fourth quarter as we delivered another record quarter of new logo sales adding $14.2 million in net annual recurring revenue. The consistency of our growth both during the pandemic and the years prior to it, reflect the strength of our organic growth engine, which is led by best in class product and backed by strong sales execution, customer success and support. We believe the long-term tailwinds for our industry persist as companies invest in Docebo to better educate their customers and partners while also improving learning and knowledge retention within their organizations at a time when investing in retention, engagement and skills development has never been more critical.”

In the quarter, Docebo signed a new customer contract with SolarEdge, a global leader in smart energy technologies. SolarEdge will use Docebo for employee and customer training.

The tech company also signed a new customer contract with ManpowerGroup, a global leader in innovative workforce solutions.
