Infovista, the leader in modern network performance, today announced the appointment of Ronald Rubens to the role of Executive Vice-President Global Enterprise and member of the executive leadership team.
Rubens brings a robust customer-centric approach and distinguished track record in executive roles driving growth for innovative software and technology companies across Europe, serving global enterprise organizations. At Infovista, he will oversee the Global Enterprise business unit, responsible for the SD-WAN market segment and the Ipanema product lines.
Most recently, Rubens led the European region for Avaya, where he oversaw sales for their large customer and partner base. Prior to Avaya, he had leadership responsibilities at NEC, Fuze, and Unify for networking and unified communications solutions and drove cloud deployment models for various companies.
The appointment follows recent investments by Infovista to its Ipanema SD-WAN solution that introduced new features enabling the rapid and transparent deployment of secure, cloud-managed Hybrid WANs for enterprises. These innovations, together with zero-touch provisioning and advanced reporting capabilities, have supported Ipanema SD-WAN deployments to over 100,000 sites globally. Ipanema SD-WAN is also one of only three SD-WAN solutions to achieve full MEF 3.0 SD-WAN certification.
“I am very proud to have such a strong leader joining us following the significant momentum and customer interest we see in the investments we continue making in our SD-WAN business,” says Jose Duarte, CEO for Infovista. “Ronald will lead our Global Enterprise business and expand on the market-leading position we have established in Europe for Ipanema SD-WAN. Ronald’s customer-centric approach to the enterprise market is more relevant than ever with today’s changing business environment that demands new, application aware, cloud-delivered solutions to ensure employee productivity and business continuity.”
“I see a significant opportunity within the application-centric SD-WAN space with customers who need to guarantee QoE for important and critical applications,” says Ronald Rubens, Executive Vice-President for Global Enterprise. “My philosophy is to stay close to our customers and channel partners, understanding their challenges, and deliver a solution that meets their needs at the pace their business requires. Infovista has made significant investments in hybrid WAN and quality of experience technology to offer an SD-WAN product that exceeds these capabilities. I am excited to join the organization and lead our enterprise team to grow the business across our target industries and regions.”
