Banyan Software is pleased to announce the acquisition of Element 74, Inc., a trusted partner to domestic violence, sexual assault and child advocacy coalitions, along with the local agencies and member programs they support. Element 74 helps these organizations capture and secure critical service data and quickly produce accurate, grant-compliant reports, so advocates spend less time on paperwork and more time with survivors.

Element 74 serves its customers through two core products. Coalition Manager provides coalitions a central solution to help manage its underlying agency members, provide training and create robust funder reports. Vela helps local agencies and member programs document survivor services and produce reports for FVPSA, VOCA, VAWA and many other funders, all while keeping survivor data secure, confidential and accessible only to those who need it.

"For 25 years, we've had the privilege of growing alongside the advocates and organizations we serve. Our products came from listening to them, and that isn't changing. Banyan gives Element 74 a permanent home and the resources to keep investing in our products, security and support, while staying true to our mission of serving advocates and survivors."

Chris Edmonds, Founder and CEO of Element 74

"Element 74 builds for work where accuracy, confidentiality and trust matter every day. Chris and his team earned that trust by building side by side with their customers and listening closely to what they need. We're here to support them for the long term and keep that customer focus at the center of everything they build next."

Stephen Ryczek, Portfolio Leader at Banyan Software
