Idan would be an asset to every customer-focused organization in the software industry. Far beyond being highly knowledgeable, professional and with a solid technical background, Idan is always looking for better ways to support customers while globally collaborating with different support teams, R&D and Product Management. I would hire him tomorrow in a heartbeat.
