Everbridge, Inc. (Nasdaq: EVBG), a global software company that
provides critical communications and enterprise safety applications
to help keep people safe and businesses running, today announced
the addition of Vick Vaishnavi as General Manager, IT Alerting™ and
Internet of Things (IoT). Vaishnavi, who joins the Everbridge
senior management team, is an accomplished enterprise software
executive and IT innovator who brings with him more than 25 years
of leadership experience at both private and public companies. He
will oversee the IT Alerting and IoT business for Everbridge,
spearheading global positioning, growth and execution.
An engineer by trade who has co-authored eight patents in
enterprise IT management software, Vaishnavi brings a proven track
record of success in technology and go-to-market experience to his
executive roles. Over the course of his career, he has led and
scaled the growth and innovation efforts at some of the largest
companies in enterprise software. His responsibilities over the
past decade have included President and CEO of Yottaa, VP and GM of
EMC’s RSA Security Division, President and CEO of Aveksa, CMO of
BMC Software’s ESM Division and CMO of BladeLogic.
“Vick is a proven operating executive and strategic technology
leader who has collaborated with hundreds of CIOs and IT executives
and consequently developed a robust understanding of their
challenges and needs,” said Jaime Ellertson, CEO of Everbridge.
“We’re excited to welcome him to the team to strengthen our product
differentiation and go-to-market strategy for IT markets while
continuing our overall business growth.”
Everbridge’s recent 2016 State of IT Management survey found
that 47 percent of companies reported having a major IT incident at
least 6 times a year, that the average cost of downtime is $8,662
per minute and companies take 27 minutes on average to assemble an
IT response team. Vaishnavi will lead Everbridge’s efforts to
enable global enterprise IT organizations to improve and automate
critical operational processes by enabling IT professionals to
interact and collaborate globally across key processes like service
management, security operations, DevOps, release management and
disaster recovery and continuity.
“Coming off a year of significant growth and having a vastly
scalable and widely adopted communications platform, I am thrilled
to be a part of a category leading company like Everbridge,” said
Vaishnavi. “I look forward to working with this dynamic team to
elevate our U.S. and international profile in the IT operations and
communications space.”
