Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Citrix Systems’ division – Citrix Online - has grabbed Gartner senior executive, Nick Smith, to head up the business for Australia and New Zealand as the company looks to continue what it says is “tremendous growth” in the Asia Pacific region.
Citrix Online managing director for Asia Pacific, H.R. Shiever, said
today Smith, as Country Leader for Australia and New Zealand, would be
responsible for leading the company’s growth by driving sales and
expanding customer partnerships. Smith was regional vice president for
ANZ at Gartner before joining Citrix Online.
Shiever said Smith’s appointment was particularly timely given Citrix
Online’s tremendous growth in the region, and he said that “as
businesses increasingly recognise the value that simple-to-use remote
access and collaboration tools offer for enhancing productivity and
ROI, we have an ideal opportunity to extend our leadership position in
this market.
“With his impressive track record and experience in the region, Nick is
central to our strategy of remaining the number one choice in ANZ.”
According to Smith, despite a challenging economic climate, the SaaS
market has taken off considerably during 2009 and, he says, “we’ll see
this trend continue, as businesses of all sizes see the value of online
collaboration tools to work smarter in a challenging economic
environment, provide better conditions for their employees and increase
their footprint.
“Citrix Online has a huge growth opportunity and I’m tremendously
enthusiastic about joining the team. The rapidly growing
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) market makes this an exciting time to join
Citrix Online.”
