Seravo
Company Profile & Results
Seravo was founded in 2011, focusing on the upkeep of Linux server systems in Tampere, Finland’s second-largest city, a town known for its long industrial history and modern innovations in information technology. After a while, it became clear that most customers had a common need: they needed assistance with websites built on WordPress. Our Premium Hosting and Upkeep service for WordPress has been our main product since 2014 and, through continuous improvements, managed to establish ourselves as market leaders on the Finnish market. For a couple of years, our growth has continued outside of Finland. We now have data centers all over the world, together with a growing number of customers and employees primarily from Europe.
