Last week No-IP was honored with a spot on the Inc. 5000 list of America’s Fastest Growing Private Companies. They are ranked 2634, moving up more than 1000 spots from last year.

This is the second year No-IP has been given this honor. They have moved up more than 1000 spots from last year where they ranked 3679. They are one of 27 Nevada companies who made the list, and are ranked 17 in the Silver State.

The list ranks companies based on percentage revenue growth from 2011 to 2014.

No-IP saw a 140 percent growth over the past 3 years and added 12 new employees to the No-IP team.

“Moving up more than 1000 spaces in just a year shows the commitment our company has to its users,” Marketing Manager Natalie Goguen said. “We are thankful to be on a list with such amazing companies and are proud to represent Nevada.”

In order to qualify for the Inc. 500|5000 List of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies, businesses needed to be founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2010. Companies needed to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies. The minimum revenue required for 2010 is $100,000; the minimum for 2013 is $2 million.

You can see No-IP’s ranking and stats by visiting their Inc. profile page. The entire Inc. 500|5000 list is available on Inc.com and gives options to filter by industry, region, number of employees, as well as other criteria.

Two weeks ago Irene Lucas joined the No-IP family as the newest member of the Support Team. She comes to us with a computer science background and a love of technology.

“Since I was a kid I have had a fascination with technology, though I was forbidden to pull things apart and break them and have continuously grown up learning all the new stuff,” Lucas said. 

Lucas in no stranger to the support field, having worked in call center and as VOIP telecommunications support. She said she is excited to work for No-IP because she loves technology.

“I love isolating issues, and problem solving. No-IP will help me reach my goals in the technology world with the vast experience I will gain from working here,” she said.

Outside of work, Lucas enjoys gaming, watching movies and taking care of her “zoo”, which consists of a bunny, dog and four fish. She also enjoys working on her home network when she gets time.

When asked who would win in a fight, a bear with titanium claws or a shark with a laser beam attached to its head, her answer was thoughtful.

“Depends (on) what kind of environment (they are in), would it be the bears natural habitat or the sharks? Or is it a genetically modified shark that can fly and live out out water?,” she said.” There are too may variables to determine the outcome on mere speculation, but if I had to choose I would choose the bear because he is fuzzy. I love all animals so I wouldn’t want them to fight in the first place.”

Last week No-IP welcomed a new team member to the support department. Alex DeLacerda, comes to us from Sao Paulo, Brazil. He moved to the United States in 2009 to study English at the University of Nevada, Reno. During that time he earned his Bachelor of Science in Business Management from Sierra Nevada College.

Alex, a native Portuguese speaker, also speaks English and Spanish fluently. As an avid football fan (soccer for those of you in the United States), Alex cheers for Corinthians, Chivas, Orlando and Barcelona. He says he is very excited to work for No-IP and we are excited to have him here. Alex will serve as our resident Portuguese speaker in Tech Support and help out with translations when needed.

“Alex will be an asset to No-IP as our biggest customer base lives in Brazil,” Marketing Manager Natalie Goguen said. “We are constantly striving to give the best customer experience possible and bringing in a Portuguese speaker is just another way to help provide that.”
