Ex-Yammer Execs Raise $5.5M For CoTap, A Mobile Messaging App Aiming To Be WhatsApp For The Workplace

The rush of new mobile messaging apps, building on the popularity of services like WhatsApp and Line, continues apace, with the latest twist is a service for business users. CoTap, an app co-founded by Yammer ex-chief product officer Jim Patterson and ex-senior director of engineering Zack Parker, has picked up a $5.5 million Series A round led by Charles River Ventures, an early Yammer investor before Microsoft bought that company for $1.2 billion. CoTap is still in stealth mode but plans to use the funding to staff up and help launch its first app, a free service, later this year for iOS and Android devices.
