David Shepard, EVP, Sales and Marketing/CRO at BroadCloud: Secure, Compliant, Private Cloud Solutions for Business

"Dennis Firenze is among the most thorough, thoughtful and honorable men with whom I have had the chance to work. Dennis has become both a friend and a trusted colleague, and someone I count on. Dennis has the ability to think strategically and to put tactical, actionable next steps into logical order. He has relationships with some of the most senior people in the industry going back years, which has proved to be a real asset for my company. I highly recommend him."

 

Craig Coale, Senior Manager - Solutions Consultant, Avaya

“There are certain characteristics of colleagues, which rise to the occasion at the right place, and right time, making all the difference in the achievement of success. While working with Dennis on a "Fortune 1" account, he definitely proved to have, and to execute upon the critical characteristics for success that were very much needed - Vision and Strategy! In this account, our coverage was sparse, disparate and lacking in a global unified strategy. Dennis engaged strategic consulting resources and unified the various global businesses into a singular vision for success. With a strong willingness to break the status quo of accepting our run rate business, Dennis immediately engaged the team, along with outside resources, to develop and implement a strategic vision that both protected our regional run rate, but most importantly, specifically put forth a strategic plan to exponentially grow our business through a global vision. It was a brilliant plan, and one that all to many are simply not willing to put forth the massive effort and complex strategic thinking, nor accept the risk required to undertake. Highest regards and recommendation for Dennis, in any role which requires a person willing to take the risks, willing to accept and work through the complexities and capable of taking a scattered, non-strategic engagement and unifying it into a comprehensive growth vision.”

Wm. Edward Vesely, Managing Director, Excelsis Group

“Dennis is smart, creative and intensely focused on results. He has a great deal of distribution experience, which is reflected in his superb approach to problem solving. As a passionate leader, Dennis fosters a collegial environment, encourages debate and holds his colleagues to high standards.”

​​

Dennis Stizza, Systems Engineer, Rackable Systems

“My experience working with Dennis was very enjoyable. Dennis is always positive and focused, no matter what the circumstances. He is professional and extremely honest, especially with regard to customer relations and support. He is easily one of the best sales people I've ever had the pleasure of working with.

Jim Jones, Director, Technical Support, Vasco Data Security

“I've had the pleasure of knowing Dennis for over 8 years now both as a boss and as a personal friend. During our time at VASCO, Dennis was an excellent leader, coach, and mentor. He built excellent rapport both with our customers and with the employees under him, and helped me grow in my career. Since leaving VASCO Dennis and I have remained close personal friends, and he's been a good mentor and sounding board. I value his advice and his friendship.”

Joel Maloff, President, The Maloff Company

“While acting as the Chief Technology Officer for a client company, I worked directly with Dennis. He was Vice President of sales and it was always a pleasure to work with him. He was insightful and aggressive regarding sales and marketing strategies, and understood the technical implications quite clearly. Dennis is an incredibly hard worker and a competent sales executive.”

​

Kenneth Hughes, Area Sales Manager, VASCO Data Security, Inc.

“Dennis was an exceptionally enthusiastic Vice President of Sales. He was creative in pre-call planning and deal strategy, and he was thorough in post-call analysis and general territory management assistance. He asked regularly and sincerely, "What do you need from me to win?" I enjoyed working for Dennis, and I always felt that my success was important to him.”

​​

Cassandra Moren, Sr. Director of Marketing, DemandTec

“Dennis operates on high positive energy in every challenge he accepts. I had the pleasure of working with him during the years that he was the #1 Sales Rep out of 5000 for two out of three years at HP calling on the State of California then taking on the very challenging Wal-Mart Team Leader Role. His positive attitude allowed him to "delight" the customer and grow the business over many years. It would be my pleasure to work with him again.”​
