No-IP Technologies has completed a strategic and majority investment in Vitalwerks Internet Solutions, the company behind No-IP. The transaction introduces a new leadership structure and positions the DNS and remote access provider for expanded innovation, product development, and partner growth initiatives. As part of the transition, founder Dan Durrer will move into the role of Founder and Chief Technology Officer. Suchit Rout, Founder and Managing Partner of Indus Growth Fund, will assume the role of Chief Executive Officer.
The investment is designed to accelerate No-IP’s roadmap across remote access, DNS services, and tools for individuals, businesses, and managed service providers. With more than 30 million global customers and a 25-year operating history, No-IP has established itself as one of the most recognized Dynamic DNS providers and has spent recent years evaluating long-term partners capable of supporting the next stage of expansion.
The company emphasized that customers should expect continuity in service, reliability, and support while benefiting from a strengthened product pipeline. No-IP is now focusing on delivering modern management tools, deeper MSP capabilities, and broader ecosystem integrations as part of its expanded long-term strategy.
Incoming CEO Suchit Rout brings experience in technology, channel-centric growth, and general management, and has been a longtime No-IP customer before investing in and joining the company. No-IP noted that Rout’s decision was driven by the company’s culture, customer relationships, and strong following among power users, OEMs, and MSPs. Company leaders highlighted that the combination of additional resources and stable leadership is expected to accelerate innovation while preserving the company’s established reputation for reliability.
Board members and investors expressed confidence that the partnership will strengthen No-IP’s ability to scale, invest in new solutions, and deliver expanded value for customers in the coming years. Advisors to the transaction included Merit Investment Bank for No-IP, BakerHostetler for Indus Growth Fund, and Mowery and Schoenfeld for accounting and tax advisory support.
