Dropsuite Limited, founded in 2011 as Dropmysite, is a Singapore-based software platform specialising in cloud backup, archiving, and recovery services, catering primarily to business continuity and compliance needs of large companies, not personal devices. The company's journey began when founder John Fearon, seeking a backup solution for his business website, raised $300,000 on a Singaporean TV show, leading to the development of services like Dropmymail for email backup and Dropmymobile for smartphone backup. In 2016, the company rebranded to Dropsuite and made its debut on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) through a backdoor listing in December of the same year.
