Check out this excellent video by Amanda Laucher... she talks about how F# was used to greatly improve the performance of a commercial insurance application:

These are all the companies I could find that have said publicly that they are using F#:

- Microsoft

- Credit Suisse

- EuroPerformance

- Grange Insurance – case study available [1]

- IntelliFactory

- TFC Inc. Marketing Automation

- DOE Joint Geonome Institute

I believe there to be lots of others but who have not made there usage public. Probably the biggest public user is credit suisse, who recently told more about what they are doing with F# in there talk "Functional Programming for Quantitative Modelling at Credit Suisse" at the Functional Programming eXchange conference that I helped to organise.

There does tend to be a math/science/finance bias in F#'s users but it's exclusively for that. IntelliFactory recently launched there "WebSharper" product [2] that it simpler to build interactive websites. It takes advantage of F#'s meta programming features to do this.

Cheers,
