Who Uses Perl
There's a great myth out there that no one uses Perl. This is because Perl tends to be a great stealth tool, being used in organisations where it's needed with or without official approval. The truth is that there are a lot of companies where Perl is used starting from small tasks to mission critical applications. People in Perl Training Australia have put together a nice explanation with the title Why Perl? They also include a list of Australian comapanies using Perl.
As a partial response to the "Perl obscurity problem", we've composed the following list of
Israeli companies where Perl is being used. This way, if you are using Perl or considering
using Perl, you'll know that you are in good company :-)

they use Perl. We don't guarantee that the details are exact.
