SUNNYVALE, Calif., Aug. 31, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Queplix™ Corp., the leader in enterprise data virtualization, today announced that it has appointed Michael Zuckerman to the post of chief marketing officer (CMO). Zuckerman brings more than 20 years of senior level marketing, sales and operations management experience in enterprise software, information security, integrated enterprise search, and data storage technologies. Reporting to Queplix CEO Mark Cashman, Zuckerman will drive the company's strategic marketing efforts to support its rapidly increasing customer, partner and sales momentum as it transitions to the next level of growth.
Enterprise data virtualization enables companies to automatically and securely integrate cloud and SaaS-based applications with the rest of the enterprise, with speed and simplicity. This benefits application areas such as customer relationship management (CRM) where cloud-based solutions such as SalesForce.com® require integration and data harmonization with on-premise applications such as PeopleSoft®, Siebel®, SAP® enterprise resource planning (ERP) and many other applications. Queplix solutions can be implemented to enable a consistent view of this vital customer information in a matter of days vs. months. As a result, customers achieve far greater agility, cost savings and rapid return on their investment than with alternative technologies. With marquee customers such as The Home Depot, Homesite and Sony Ericsson, Queplix is positioned to expand its growing footprint, capitalizing on a total available market for enterprise data virtualization that is projected to reach billions of dollars.
"Established legacy technology offerings from companies such as Cast Iron Systems* have paved the way for a new generation of advanced solutions for cloud and application integration. Queplix is poised to advance its market leadership with a data virtualization solution that delivers unprecedented automation, simplicity, security, and rapid return on customer investment," said Zuckerman. "I look forward to contributing to the next stage of Queplix' growth and industry leadership."
Before joining Queplix, Zuckerman was senior vice president, marketing, at I-Many, Inc. (IMNY), a public company in the contract management software market. Prior to that, he held positions as senior vice president, marketing and senior vice president, general manager for the 3D business unit of Immersion (IMMR), also a public company. Zuckerman was also vice president of worldwide marketing at Verity, Inc. (VRTY), a public company in the enterprise search market ultimately acquired by Autonomy (AU).
