"Whatfix is proud to offer a unified digital adoption experience enabling organisations to extract the full value from their software tools while also empowering employees, customers, and businesses.

"This latest round of funding strengthens our position as market leaders as we plan to expand our offerings globally and continue to provide excellent customer service to businesses..." Whatfix CEO and co-founder Khadim Batti said.

"Whatfix, with its roster of global clients, is well placed to become a DAS leader, and we are excited to be part of their journey. Enterprises spend billions on applications across multiple functions and yet employee adoption is low. Quick adoption ensures payback on software investments," Sumer Juneja, Partner at SoftBank Investment Advisers, said.

He added that Whatfix's solutions will be a key driver for enterprises to achieve this goal, which is reflected in its growth.
