SILICON SLOPES, Utah, May 01, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pluralsight, Inc. PS, the enterprise technology skills platform, today announced it has entered into an agreement to acquire GitPrime, the leading developer productivity platform, for $170 million in cash. The acquisition is expected to close the week of May 6th, subject to customary closing conditions.

GitPrime also offers deep and analytical insights around the efficiency and performance of software development teams.

"I'm extremely proud of what the GitPrime team has accomplished to date for engineering teams and leaders," said Travis Kimmel, co-founder and CEO of GitPrime.
