IGEL’s Simon Clephan is a Total Midmarket Maniac…and the Channel Company Likes his Style, Naming Simon to Top Exec List
Simon Clephan, IGEL’s Vice President of Business Development and Strategic Alliances, has made it his mission to see that midmarket companies excel in their virtualization strategies and fully leverage IGEL’s software-defined endpoint security and optimization solutions to achieve the absolute best VDI experience.
We like to say Simon has a maniacal focus on the midmarket and he proves this every day, getting out in the field, talking to IT teams and end users, gaining first hand details on what matters to them in terms of a first-rate virtualization and endpoint environment.
It’s nice to see the industry recognizing Simon’s midmarket dedication, naming him to The Channel Company’s Top Midmarket IT Executives list for 2017. The annual list honors influential vendor and solution provider executives who have demonstrated an exceptionally strong commitment to the midmarket. Simon will receive the award this week at the 2017 Midsize Enterprise Summit Fall, in San Antonio, Texas, Sept. 17-19.
After less than a year on board at IGEL, Simon has made his mark in spectacular fashion, demonstrating to the midmarket how IGEL can help companies improve productivity and get the most business benefits from virtualization, using our endpoint security and optimization software to deliver a secure, satisfying desktop experience on any device.
Simon has been a key player in IGEL achieving such historical milestones as an 890% in software revenue in the U.S. market in the first half of 2017 and 156% worldwide through aggressive sales and marketing initiatives. He has also helped to establish new routes to market through innovative Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) managed service offerings from Platinum Partners Entisys360 and MTM Technologies. Simon has also worked to expand our IGEL Platinum Partner Program and helping to establish Channel Partner Advisory, Customer Advisory and Marketing Advisory Councils.
He’s a maniac, Simon, but in a good way! We applaud his commitment to IGEL and the midmarket!
