Tumulty will be responsible for all customer facing operations - leading the company’s expansion into new markets and ensuring that customers derive increased business value from their applications and infrastructure through the use of Network General’s solutions.
Tumulty offers more than 20 years of experience within the IT industry, and has held a number of senior positions at global companies. Prior to joining Network General he was senior vice president of worldwide sales for HAL Knowledge Solutions, a privately owned provider of Application Portfolio Management software to blue chip companies such as UBS, HSBC, Barclays, Group Santander and Banca Intesa.
Before joining HAL, Tumulty was vice president of northern and southern Europe at Mercury where he led the growth of the business from €30m to over €100m in just over three years.
Tumulty has worked extensively with the channel, most notably as UK channel director during his nine years with Data General, a provider of systems and storage solutions which has since been acquired by EMC. This experience will be vital as Network General’s channel program is expanded to support the company’s focus on new industries and markets.
“It is great to be joining Network General during such a key phase of its growth. Global 2000 companies have invested heavily in IT to help them deliver business goals, yet many critical applications still suffer poor performance or downtime. This impact on business user productivity costs companies revenue, man hours and customer retention,” said Tumulty. “Network General solutions provide businesses with complete visibility as to why those critical applications are failing to perform by monitoring the network on which they run.”
"Kevin is a welcome addition to the team and joins Network General at a crucial time in its development," said Bill Gibson, Network General’s CEO. "As we continue to build on our leading position in the Network Performance Management market, and extend our IT Service Assurance Solution capabilities, Kevin’s strategic sales experience will prove invaluable.”
