Today ElasticBox, the company that enables IT as a service through real time collaboration on the delivery of applications, is announcing that it has hired Robin Daniels as Chief Marketing Officer. Robin is an industry veteran with more than 15 years of experience in high tech product marketing leadership and has played major roles with companies like Box, Salesforce, and Veritas Software (now Symantec).

"I am thrilled to bring my experience and expertise to ElasticBox, a company that is creating differentiated, useful and incredibly unique solutions for internal application development, for every business across industries. To win in today's business environment you have to develop apps faster than your competitors, and ElasticBox helps you do just that."
