Monday, May 05, 2008
SAN DIEGO, May 5 /PRNewswire/ -- PivotStor(TM) (www.pivotstor.com),
dedicated to delivering best-of-breed data protection, coupled with proven
reliability and cost-effective performance, today announced the appointment of
two industry veterans to senior positions within the firm.
Michelle Vilchuck has been named Vice President, Operations and Support.
She joins PivotStor from Quantum Corporation, bringing more than 20 years of
experience in the data protection industry, where she has held various
executive-level positions in Operations, Quality, Sales, Marketing and Field
Support. Before joining PivotStor, Michelle was the Vice President, Sales
Operations and Customer Support for Quantum, responsible for sales and
marketing operations, which included OEM, Branded Account Management and
Business Systems. Prior to Quantum, Michelle was Vice President, Worldwide
Sales Operations for Certance. She has held similar executive positions at
Seagate, Conner, Archive, Olivetti and Data Products.
"Michelle knows this industry from every angle, and her experience will
help us continue our growth," said Jack Corrao, PivotStor's President and
Chief Operating Officer. "Beyond her knowledge of the technology, she also
understands the channel; what resellers need to be successful in today's
market, and what we as a vendor can do to support them at every phase. I'm
pleased to have her as part of our team."
Tony Clay joins PivotStor as Director of EMEA Sales. He was previously at
Overland Storage, where he built a multi-million dollar sales organization as
a regional sales director, including the establishment of reseller and
distribution channels. He has had similar success over more than a quarter of
a century at other data protection firms, such as BakBone, Datacore, Quantum
and Conner Peripherals, where he has been repeatedly responsible for
introducing and selling new technologies into the channel.
"Tony has a proven track record of success at establishing presence and
growing sales for data protection companies throughout Europe, Middle-East and
Africa," said John Boyken, PivotStor's vice president of worldwide sales. "His
addition to our sales team will accelerate our plan to market and sell our
AP-Series tape libraries and EP-Series email management appliances throughout
the region. His ability to identify the right Distribution and VAR partners
in each country will bring significant incremental growth to PivotStor."
Both Vilchuck and Clay are seen as important additions to PivotStor's
management team as the company continues its global expansion. Since its
formal introduction last year, PivotStor has already rolled out its EP-Series
of innovative email management appliances, combining multiple functions such
as archiving, encryption, anti-spam and anti-virus protection into one
easily-installed and administered device. The company has also introduced
significant product improvements to its AP-Series of tape automation
libraries, delivering more reliable handling of tapes containing
corporate-critical information.
