TORONTO and NEW YORK, NY — (Marketwired) — 07/24/13 — , a leading provider of enterprise data center solutions, today announced the appointment of Wayne Kiphart as President of OnX Managed Services. Kiphart brings over 16 years of extensive experience in delivering cloud and managed IT services, and enabling success-based, profit-driven business results.
Kiphart-s appointment comes on the heels of OnX-s announcement in May of its acquisition of Chicago-based Worknet Inc., a partnership resulting in the newly-formed OnX Managed Services Division, tasked with expanding and increasing OnX-s cloud and data center services offerings throughout North America. The combined intellectual property of Worknet and the Managed Services Division of OnX allows the organization to offer data center and cloud solutions in the United States, Canada, or both.
“We are strengthening and furthering our investments in the cloud and managed services arena in North America, and appointing Wayne, with his solid credentials and vast experience, is an integral part of executing our strategy,” said Mike Cox, president of OnX U.S. “Creating a dedicated business unit solely focused on delivering hosted solutions for our enterprise clients- mission-critical applications confirms our commitment to excellence in this area.”
“OnX is recognized as one of the largest dedicated solution providers in North America and I am extremely pleased to be leading the charge for the managed services division and continuing the success that they have realized to date,” said Wayne Kiphart, newly-appointed President OnX Managed Services. “Whether delivering solutions within clients- existing data centers, in one of OnX-s data centers, or in the OnX IaaS cloud, we are uniquely positioned in the market to support our clients- infrastructure on a scale few providers can match.”
Previously, Kiphart held the position of Vice President, Managed Services at Logicalis, an international IT solutions and managed services provider, where he was responsible for the division-s go-to-market sales success as well as increasing the effectiveness of a channel program that led to the rapid expansion of the Managed Services business. Kiphart holds a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Business Administration from Indiana Wesleyan University.
