BQE Software Inc., a market leading provider of business management software for accounting, architecture, engineering, and other professional services firms, has named Victor Limongelli as its new Chief Executive Officer. Limongelli brings to BQE a wealth of leadership and growth experience through his 20–year career managing technology and SaaS companies.
BQE also recently announced the additions of Arvind Sharma as chief technology officer, Austin Miller as chief marketing officer, and Matt Cooper as chief revenue officer.
Most recently, Limongelli served as CEO of MobileCause, a fundraising and donor engagement platform for nonprofits, where he led a turnaround that saw the company achieve profitability, strong growth, and ultimately a successful sale of the company. Earlier, at Guidance Software, he was a key leader in its growth from $9 million to $130 million in revenue, as well as its IPO. He served seven years as a public–company CEO; the company pioneered two different software markets – Endpoint Detection and Response and E–Discovery Software – and achieved leadership positions (as rated by Gartner) in both. In–between Guidance Software and MobileCause, he was CEO of AccessData Group, where under his leadership the company grew earnings, returned to bookings growth, and introduced its first cloud product. His impressive track record at software companies perfectly primes him to lead BQE into an exciting new era.
“I am thrilled to be joining BQE as it builds upon an impressive foundation of serving architecture and engineering firms. Our goal is to help our customers grow their businesses by providing them with critical information and key insights about their projects, their billings, and their overall profitability,” said Victor.
Limongelli succeeds current BQE CEO, Shafat Qazi, who is transitioning into an advisory role on the board of directors after founding and leading the company for more than 25 years. Qazi was working as an engineer when he created the original BillQuick software to address inefficiencies in professional services’ billing and accounting processes. In 2018, Qazi was named a “Top 50 CEO” by Comparably.
“I have truly enjoyed building BQE from my garage and am proud to see it listed among the top software companies for professional service firms. Under the leadership of our new CEO, Victor, I am confident that our customers and the company will enjoy accelerated growth and help them transit into the next generation of software and business automation,” said Qazi
