XS International Ranked on Inc. 500|5000 List



XS International is a provider of data center solutions that extend the life of IT infrastructure while reducing costs and capitalizing on new technologies that introduce efficiencies of cost savings. It offers data center relocation services, IT asset disposition services and IT maintenance services, including an alternative IT support service to Cisco’s SMARTnet.


Inc. magazine ranked XS International on its sixth annual Inc. 500|5000, an exclusive ranking of the nation’s fastest growing private companies. XS international has been ranked No. 4337, joining Yelp (News - Alert), Chobani, Giftcards.com, KIND and Tilly’s among other prominent brands.

The list represents the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy—America’s independent entrepreneurs.

"Making the Inc. 5000 list for the 2nd year in a row is a testament to the demand for our Alternative 3rd Party Global Field Maintenance we provide on Cisco, Juniper, Brocade (News - Alert) and F5 Networks equipment among others. We are proud we can add to new U.S. job creation since our contracts in the U.S. are serviced by U.S. technicians and not outsourced overseas like most of the call centers staffed by these manufacturers. So not only are we saving customers 20-30 percent on their annual maintenance, they are receiving faster service," stated Todd Bone, founder and chairman of XS International, in a statement.

XS International also provides new and legacy IT hardware and software solutions, including super computers, mainframes, enterprise servers, storage and networking, as well as enterprise-related software. Its IT maintenance services extend the life of IT equipment without the expense or inflexibility of an OEM service. Benefits of choosing an alternative service from XSi include contract flexibilities, payment flexibilities, cost reductions and support past original equipment manufacturer (OEM) declared End-of-Life products.

In a stagnant economic environment, median growth rate of 2012 Inc. 500|5000 companies remains an impressive 97 percent. The companies on this year's list report having created over 400,000 jobs in the past three years, and aggregate revenue among the honorees reached $299 billion.

"Now, more than ever, we depend on Inc. 500/5000 companies to spur innovation, provide jobs, and drive the economy forward. Growth companies, not large corporations, are where the action is," says Inc. Editor Eric Schurenberg.
