MONTREAL, April 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ - Canada-based infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) company iWeb has appointed web-hosting industry veteran Elya McCleave to the new position of Vice President of Services. Ms. McCleave will lead a multi-departmental team responsible for customer service, technical support and client satisfaction, to ensure that the client experience is at the center of the provider's current range of hosting services, as well as their expansion into managed technical and professional services.

"'Our customers are at the heart of everything we do at iWeb" says iWeb President and COO Christian Primeau, whose appointment nearly one year ago was the first of several high-profile hires by iWeb since its privatization. "As our services, technological environment, capabilities and capacity grow, so too do the needs and expectations of our customers. Elya's track record of creating customer-centric environments has made her a customer service guru in this industry."

"My mission is to build an even more customer-centric culture and empower employees. I'm looking forward to motivating, challenging, and helping people fulfill their potential," says Elya, speaking of her vision for iWeb. "Surveys suggest that reliability is what customers value the most, but really, reliable service is a crucial element of the bigger picture. iWeb's client-base has become very diverse, and customers need a reliable, flexible and responsive IaaS provider; a partner to fill an increasingly important space in their operations."

Christian Primeau adds that "Elya has worked all over the world, she shares our values and we are delighted to have her on board!"
