Xyte, the Hardware-as-a-Service (HaaS) solution leader, which is bringing a fundamental shift in the way hardware manufacturing ecosystems operate, announced that Randy Klein, former President and CEO of Crestron Electronics, is joining the company as a member of its Advisory Board.

We use subscription models throughout our daily lives. Our industry is no exception. I am so thrilled to join Xyte. Omer and his team are the future of our industry and have intelligently engineered a platform to adopt the hardware-as-a-service concept and “cloudify” connected devices. Xyte can truly transform and change our great industry.”

By providing manufacturers with a platform to offer end-users a more financially stable way to buy and refresh technology, we will start to see innovations develop faster. Randy steered Crestron through the move from analog to digital and many periods of rapid change and innovation in his three decades with the company, so we’re pleased to have his support as we navigate the same seismic change with our partners.”
