Coradiant, Inc.™, a leader in real-user monitoring equipment for data center applications, today announced that it has opened three regional sales offices and launched a channel sales organization to support growing demand for the company’s TrueSight real-user monitoring products.
“We are pleased to be strengthening our sales operations with the addition of these talented executives who have considerable experience in direct sales and channel programs for the data center equipment market segment,” said Brett Helm, Coradiant chairman and chief executive officer, (CEO). “We continue to see accelerating demand for our real-user monitoring equipment, and this team will enable us to strengthen and expand our current customer engagements while exploring new opportunities as we use our technology in a variety of planned new products.”
Coradiant’s regional sales offices have been opened under the leadership of three seasoned sales vice presidents. The western U.S. office located in Silicon Valley is managed by Steve Spring who has extensive background in the web application performance space, most recently with F5 Networks. The central U.S. office in the metro-Dallas area is run by Kevin Martin, vice president sales, central region, a 15-year industry veteran who was previously director of central U.S. sales for NetScaler, prior to its acquisition by Citrix. Promoted to run the eastern region out of offices in Waltham, Mass. is Matthew McSweeney, who last year joined Coradiant from Extreme Networks and has also held sales and sales management positions at Akamai Technologies.
Coradiant also is launching a channel sales organization under the leadership of Ray Fulks, director of channel development, who will be based at the company’s headquarters in San Diego. Ray brings more than a decade of experience in territory and channel sales management with F5 Networks, SBC and Verizon, and will be tasked with enhancing and expanding the company’s TrueAdvantage Partner Program.
Spring, Martin, McSweeney and Fulks will report to Mike Chuli, president and chief operating officer for Coradiant. “These individuals bring a tremendous amount of expertise to Coradiant and especially to our customers and partners.” Chuli said. “Very few companies match this team’s collective experience and customer knowledge, and we are well-positioned to bring the business-changing benefits of the TrueSight technology to an even bigger customer base.”
The expansion of Coradiant’s sales organization follows a series of announcements that has seen the company bring on veteran Brett Helm as CEO, closed $12.7 million in venture capital funding and expanded its senior management team with the addition of engineering, marketing and finance vice presidents.
