HEAT Software

HEAT Software

HEAT Software was originally a standalone software vendor focused on IT service management (ITSM) and unified endpoint management (UEM) solutions. The company provided help desk software, asset management, and patch management tools to mid-market and enterprise clients, competing with firms like ServiceNow and BMC Software. Founded with an undisclosed founding year, the firm operated out of Milpitas, California, serving primarily North American markets. In 2014, HEAT Software was acquired by Ivanti (then known as LANDesk Software), which was itself a portfolio company of private equity firm ClearSky Security Partners. The deal consolidated HEAT's ITSM capabilities into Ivanti's broader endpoint management suite. No subsequent public records indicate the firm operates as an independent asset manager or family office, nor does it appear to deploy capital into third-party funds or direct investments. Given the acquisition, the firm's investment team and deployment strategy are not publicly documented. The firm's website and LinkedIn presence are unavailable for verification, and no named principals, AUM, or portfolio companies are disclosed. The entity appears inactive as an investment vehicle post-acquisition. Structurally, HEAT Software ceased to exist as a standalone entity after the Ivanti acquisition, and no governance or succession information is publicly available.
