EkkoSense Appoints New CEO to Drive Global Sales Growth
Daniel Kline brings proven SaaS and AI leadership experience to support EkkoSense’s next phase of growth
EkkoSense, the global leader in AI-powered data center optimization software, has appointed Daniel Kline as Chief Executive Officer.
Daniel brings over 20 years’ senior SaaS and AI leadership experience to EkkoSense, having led and scaled a series of high growth software businesses. He joins EkkoSense from network-as-a-service and security specialist Cloud Gateway. As CEO, Daniel was responsible for leading corporate and go-to-market strategy and scaling operations. Prior to Cloud Gateway, Daniel served as a Managing Director for NAVEX and as a Chief Revenue Officer for high-growth SaaS PropTech vendor LandTech, as well as RegTech SaaS firms Arachnys and FundApps.
Kline joins EkkoSense at a critical moment in the company’s global growth, with AI workloads, power constraints, and sustainability pressures driving an increased demand for intelligent data center optimization capabilities. EkkoSense’s AI-powered EkkoSoft Critical 3D visualization and analytics software directly addresses this requirement. Organizations across 50+ countries already use EkkoSoft Critical to reduce operational risk, free-up power and cooling capacity, and lower energy consumption.
Commenting on his appointment, Daniel Kline said: “I’m joining EkkoSense at such an important time for the business. EkkoSense has created an unrivalled software platform for managing and optimizing complex data center environments, and it’s already used successfully by many world leading organizations. The company has an incredibly strong foundation, a hugely talented team, and an unrivalled reputation for delivering quantifiable results for customers. I will be building on this success to accelerate growth and broaden penetration in key global markets. I am excited to get to know our customers and partners over the coming months.”
Daniel succeeds Dean Boyle who co-founded EkkoSense and has led the company since 2013. Dean will stay involved at EkkoSense and will transition to a Vice Chairman role to focus on key strategic initiatives for the business, whilst continuing to support Daniel and the board. “Dan is a proven leader, with a track record of scaling businesses while also maintaining strong cultural values,” said Dean. “EkkoSense is well placed for its next phase, and I’m looking forward to supporting Dan and his team on its continuing growth journey.”
EkkoSense Chairman Stephen Edwards added: “Daniel’s appointment clearly signals our intent to build on EkkoSense’s success with renewed momentum and clarity. His commercial and sales leadership background and customer-first approach make him the right leader to take EkkoSense forward into the next phase. We’re grateful to Dean Boyle for his outstanding leadership in shaping EkkoSense to date and he will remain part of the company’s future.”
