Cherwell Software announced that Steve Rodda is joining the company as Chief Product Officer and will steer the company's research and development efforts.
“Steve joins us with a distinguished product development and product management background, including extensive experience with IT service management [ITSM] and related IT operations products,” said Craig Harper, CEO of Cherwell. "Continued focus on Cherwell's products is key to our future success, and I'm confident that Steve will further our mission to deliver the best service management solutions on the planet."
Rodda has served in a variety of leadership roles relating to product development and strategic business planning. At LogicNow, a cloud-based ITSM solution provider for managed service providers (MSPs), he led the MaxFocus development team, as well as the team that built AppControl, a cloud services management console.
Prior to that, Rodda served in key development roles at Webroot, Stanfield Systems, Jel, and Deloitte. With more than 17 years of experience, Rodda’s strong leadership and ability to establish strategic business priorities, as well as his knowledge of product development and engineering, is a strong match for Cherwell’s ceaseless drive to create customer-friendly, innovative service management solutions.
“Cherwell is known throughout the industry as a leader in service management,” said Rodda. “I’m thrilled to work with Cherwell’s product team to develop the next generation of ground-breaking technology, so our customers can continue advancing their service management maturity and practices, and seize upon everything the future of ITSM has to offer.”
