Management Team
Bob Hendren, President and Chief Executive Officer
Bob has been building web-enabled businesses since the Web was born. (How long is that in Internet years?) Bob joined Clever Computers, a small software firm in Atlanta, in November 1994 after 5 years as an Army Programmer/Analyst and helped establish Clever Internet Services, a highly successful Web Hosting pioneer, where he held several roles, the final of which was Vice President of Operations. Clever was acquired in April 1998 by Sage Networks, which then became known as Interliant. Clever’s Atlanta-based organization became the basis for Interliant’s Web Hosting operation. Interliant was a leading ASP and Web Hosting company, so Bob has seen all aspects of an Internet company’s growth, from the three-person startup to the 1,000 employee, publicly traded enterprise, all the while developing and providing innovative outsourced services to the business community.
During his time with Clever and Interliant, Bob was responsible for various activities such as: Development of E-Commerce and Web Hosting product lines for Clever and Sage/Interliant; Direction of Clever’s web application development for both corporate and customer web sites; Creation of Interliant’s web-based product ordering, CRM and billing system that billed over 70,000 customers; and Acquisition integration of more than 15 companies for Interliant in 1.5 years.
