San Francisco: Xobni, the popular Outlook plug-in, has closed a $7 million B Round that includes participation from new investor Cisco Systems, as well as Xobni's existing investors - Khosla Ventures, First Round Capital, Baseline Ventures, and Atomico. "We have been focusing on creating a simple solution for people suffering from communications overload," said Jeff Bonforte, CEO, Xobni. "With this funding, Xobni will keep pushing its innovation on uncovering and leveraging all the information and relationships locked up in its overloaded inboxes, particularly in Microsoft Outlook," Bonforte added. The additional investment round crowns a year of user growth and product development for Xobni.
