ANPI has added Patrick Herron as vice president of product management.
In this role, he will be focused equally on all three of the ANPI distribution channels – direct, indirect and wholesale, prioritizing the product roadmap, creating and executing go-to-market plans and working closely with ANPI developers.
“From our first meeting, Pat had a great feel for the future of ANPI,” said ANPI CEO Dave Lewis. “And his success with developing and launching products speaks for itself. I’m confident he will be a major contributor in making our offerings the best on the market.’
Prior to joining ANPI, he was vice president of enterprise product marketing at Windstream, and before that, vice president of product management at PAETEC and director of product and business development at McLeodUSA. He also spent almost seven years at US Cellular and 12 years at Ameritech.
“The ANPI executive team is simply impressive,” Herron said. “This company is in the right space, at the right time, with the most complete, easiest-to-use hosted UC solution I’ve seen. Plus, with the incredible ILEC partnerships that have been the foundation of ANPI for almost 20 years, we are in a very unique position.”
ANPI offers ANPI VIP, a hosted unified communications solution with a set of PBX features including auto-attendants, hunt groups, call recording and fax services. ANPI VIP also offers integrated mobile access, instant messaging, presence, content sharing, audio and videoconferencing, and Web meetings.
