About Support Revolution:

Support Revolution believes that organisation's are being held hostage by Oracle and SAP; paying too much for software support and maintenance and being forced into unwanted upgrades.

Our mission is to cut our customers’ Oracle and SAP maintenance costs in half, while providing a better quality of service and freeing them from the mandatory upgrade cycle. Our customers are then able to redeploy funds from maintenance to innovation - investing in their own future.

We are a fun, energetic company that likes to reward hard-working employees.
