Portland-based Janrain, the developer of user management and registration tools for online websites, reported today that it has raised $33M in a funding round. The round came from Millennium Technology Value Partners, Split Rock Partners, Epic Ventures, and salesforce.com, and also included existing investors Emergence Capital, RPM Ventures, DFJ Frontier and Anthem Venture Partners. Janrain says the funding will go towards growth of the firm. Janrain said it more than doubled its revenues in 2012.
