Questback Group CEO, Saeid Mirzaie comments;

“In the last quarter of the year, we remained focused throughout and strongly crossed over the 2022 finishing line. The team delivered its 10th consecutive quarter with higher year-over-year Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) growth. We achieved a Net Retention Rate (NRR) of 100% for the first time ever in the first quarter of the year and succeeded in achieving a NRR of 101% for the whole year. Our team today is the strongest it has ever been, as we are entering an exciting new year for the company. Notwithstanding the macro headwinds, we are looking forward to continuing our newly-started growth journey – scalable and profitable.

Last but not least, I cannot express enough how grateful I am to the team for their relentless hard work and dedication, and to all our valued customers for your unwavering trust and support”.
