CrashPlan is speeding up its global growth plan by expanding into India. This move will boost next-generation backup innovation. This strategic expansion emphasizes data resilience, backup innovation, and cutting-edge engineering in India.
Strengthening R&D and AI-Driven Backup Capabilities
In Bengaluru, CrashPlan has strengthened its Global Capability Center (GCC) to drive R&D, enhance engineering, and deliver accelerated backup innovation and data resilience solutions. During his first visit to Bengaluru since becoming CEO in April 2025, Dan Beer met with important enterprise customers, including Fractal Analytics and Godrej Industries Group. He also met with strategic partner Etisalat in Dubai. These visits reinforced CrashPlan’s commitment to deepen customer relationships and strengthen regional partnerships.
Beer said: “India is more than a market for us – it’s an innovation engine that will drive extended collaboration across our engineering, AI, and product teams worldwide. Our Bengaluru GCC will continue to be central to how we build, innovate, and deliver for our customers worldwide.”
One year after the acquisition of Indian technology firm Parablu, CrashPlan has doubled its employee headcount in the region. The expansion aims to scale engineering and support teams in India to drive product innovation. It will also enhance AI-powered features that enable faster backup recovery and ensure compliance with mandates like the Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDPA). Additionally, the company plans to sustain strong revenue growth and profitability while developing a robust talent pipeline through university partnerships and strategic hiring in engineering, cybersecurity, and analytics.
The Bengaluru GCC is now the operational base for some of CrashPlan’s most valuable customers. For example, Fractal Analytics has expanded its CrashPlan deployment 30× since 2018, and Godrej Industries Group now secures thousands of endpoints across its business units. These partnerships show CrashPlan as a reliable data-resilience partner for India’s enterprise sector.
CrashPlan’s wider growth in India, the UAE, and the Asia-Pacific is an important step in its global journey. It has operations in Bengaluru and plans to expand in Dubai. It is collaborating with enterprise and channel partners to address the rising demand for secure and compliant backup solutions. The company also aims to enhance data resilience across the APAC and Middle East regions.
