Bio
Mike Creed
Paul and I have worked together for a number of years whilst he was Account Manager @ NetScout. Paul proved to have a vast knowledge of the NetScout product set, including quite technical knowledge and his knowledge of network performance monitoring and management were invaluable and impressive. Paul worked with me on a number of key implementations @ Barclays, including provisioning of a brand new DC in Singapore, setting up NetScouts to monitor all WAN and Server Access ports. I would be more than happy to endorse Paul for any role he applies for.
Daniel Lyus
Paul and I worked together on a number of specific requirements at high profile finance accounts that I account managed at the time. Paul's knowledge of the finance market, the importance of performance and its impact on key finance applications, and his knowledge of network performance monitoring and management are invaluable and impressive. In addition to his detailed knowledge, Paul is a very experienced and well connected sales person who understands how to execute a sales campaign, especially managing the complexities of taking ownership while working alongside a channel service partner with a broader agenda in the account. I'd happily introduce Paul to any of my customers as his knowledge, experience and ability to add value to the solution are far higher than many of his peers in the industry.
