Onit Achieves Important Milestones in 2020 While Positioned for Growth in 2021

Despite COVID-related complications presented to businesses worldwide, Onit had a successful year. Milestones achieved this year included the launch of an artificial intelligence-powered business intelligence platform and AI contract review, two acquisitions in 30 days, increasing employee headcount by 22% and a market-leading NPS score.

According to Onit CEO and Co-Founder Eric M. Elfman, the credit for these accomplishments goes to the company’s ability to unite behind common goals.

“While Onit faced pandemic-related challenges similar to many other businesses, we succeeded by focusing on what matters most: our customers, innovation and employees,” said Eric M. Elfman, CEO and co-founder of Onit. “I credit the dedication and efforts of our employees for making us even stronger than ever before. We are well-positioned for continued growth in 2021, which has been our trajectory since the founding of the company.”
