LogMeIn

Company overview. LogMeIn, Inc. (now GoTo Technologies USA, Inc., commonly "GoTo"; formerly 3am Labs until 2006) is a SaaS company founded in 2003 in Budapest and headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts. It went public on NASDAQ (ticker LOGM) in 2009, but was acquired in a leveraged buyout by Francisco Partners and Evergreen Coast Capital (Elliott Management's tech PE affiliate) for roughly $4.3 billion; the deal closed August 31, 2020, and the stock was delisted. It remains privately held by those sponsors. Press materials around the buyout cited more than 3,500 employees and over $1.3 billion in annual revenue; third-party data providers show substantially smaller current headcount, so treat post-2020 size figures as approximate.

Products / services. LogMeIn provides cloud-based remote-work and IT software: remote access and support (LogMeIn Pro, LogMeIn Central, Rescue/Resolve), unified communications and collaboration (GoTo Connect, GoTo Meeting, GoTo Webinar, GoToMyPC, from the 2017 Citrix GoTo merger and the 2018 Jive Communications acquisition), customer engagement, and identity/access management. The LastPass password manager, acquired in 2015, was carved out into a separate Francisco Partners/Evergreen-owned company in December 2021. The company rebranded from LogMeIn to GoTo on February 2, 2022; "LogMeIn" persists as a product brand and as the legal holding-company name.

Patent-litigation posture. Operating company defending against NPE suits. In the tracked data LogMeIn appears once, as a defendant (0 as plaintiff), consistent with a company that sells real products and is targeted rather than asserting.

Notable case. Honeyman Cipher Solutions LLC v. LogMeIn, Inc., No. 1:19-cv-01545 (D. Del., filed Aug. 19, 2019), before Judge Colm F. Connolly. Honeyman Cipher, characterized by Unified Patents and RPX as an NPE, asserted U.S. Patent 5,991,399 (originally Intel, later held by Plano Encryption Technologies) over app-store registration/distribution using encryption keys; it filed parallel suits against Snap and Groupon. The LogMeIn action was voluntarily dismissed by the plaintiff in October 2019, and the patent was later subject to an IPR settled with Unified Patents.
