Fleet, a startup offering a service that helps to track and manage enterprise devices like laptops, today announced that it raised $20 million in a Series A round led by CRV with participation from angel investors including GitLab CEO Sid Sijbrandij. Fleet CEO Mike McNeil says that the new capital — which values the company at $100 million post-money — will be put toward scaling Fleet’s team and building a “more complete” device management feature set.

Managing employee devices was already tough for IT teams, but the pandemic made the job even tougher. In a recent survey commissioned by device management platform Kandji, 95% of IT professionals cited remote troubleshooting, onboarding and various forms of security as impediments to success. That’s perhaps why, according to a separate poll by Deloitte, the vast majority (84%) of organizations believe they lack a “truly effective” device management system.
