Kayako is a software development company. The company develops a cloud-based customer service platform and on-premises help desk and customer support software.

Products

Kayako is available both as a SaaS (software as a service) cloud-based solution ('Kayako OnDemand') and as an on-premises, self-hosted solution ('Kayako Download').[1]

History

Kayako was established in 2001 by Varun Shoor, who formed the company and its first office in Jalandhar, Punjab after dropping out of college.[2] Shoor learned to program when he was 13 years old, and started work on Kayako at the age of 17.[3][4]

In August 2009, Kayako announced the availability of cost-free full licenses for charities and open-source software projects.[5][6]

To date, Kayako has not received any funding from external investors and is profitable.[7]

In July 2013, Viber's online Kayako help desk[8] was defaced by the Syrian Electronic Army. However, according to Kayako and Viber,[9] this was related to a compromise of an individual's account password, and not a security vulnerability in the Kayako application itself.

Locations

Originally founded and headquartered in Jalandhar, India, Kayako is now headquartered in London, United Kingdom[10] and has offices in Jalandhar and New Delhi in India.[11]
