As the old adage goes “the only constant is change.” This is certainly true in any growth-stage tech company.

It’s a very exciting time here at Auvik as we continue to accelerate our growth and take market share. To that end, today we announced that we’ve expanded our leadership team as we embark on this next chapter of growth. I’d like to welcome Bob Feller as Chief Financial Officer, Courtney Harrison as Chief Human Resources Officer, and Siva Ananmalay as Chief Development Officer.

In addition, Auvik’s co-founder, Alex Hoff, has also taken on a new role as Chief Strategy Officer. Alex will be partnering with me to shape Auvik’s long-term strategic plans while maintaining our focus on continued innovation.

Why now?

In 2022, we made three big, strategic acquisitions to broaden our platform:

  • MetaGeek: an industry-leading provider of Wi-Fi tools that help network professionals more efficiently deploy and maintain wireless networks.
  • Saaslio: a leading SaaS discovery solution enabling companies to securely manage applications
  • Boardgent: an intuitive platform for managing and protecting desktops and laptops remotely

2022 was a year of record-setting growth for Auvik. We’ve entered an accelerated growth phase for the company, particularly as we evolve from offering a single product focused on network management and monitoring to Auvik as a multi-product SaaS suite. A unified platform with many awesome out-of-the-box experiences where simplicity reigns.

As IT challenges continue to become more complex, we need to continue to deliver on our promise: to provide simple yet effective monitoring and management tools that deliver maximum value for any style of IT environment that our customers have in the new last mile of the office network.

Meet our new leadership team!
