In early 2011, APX was officially re-branded as Vivint. By mid-year 2012, Vivint reached a milestone bringing in an astounding $30 million dollars in recurring monthly revenue. In late 2012, the Blackstone Group acquired Vivint for over $2 billion, giving Vivint additional resources and helping them to continue expanding and developing new products and services.
