COLUMBUS, Ohio — In a recent report, IT analyst firm 451 Research welcomed Vertiv’s transformation, saying the company has “remade itself for a data center market that demands a lean cost structure and rewards speed.” It went on to say that Vertiv is “gearing up to take advantage of its broad portfolio and global footprint to take more share in a challenging but expanding data center market.”
The report represents one of the first comprehensive analyst evaluations of Vertiv since its sale to Platinum Equity about three years ago, and it extols the company’s increased agility across its global operations and effective growth strategy — including 2018 acquisitions and increased attention to the channel.
