Why Partners Are Excited About Monolith Software
External validation is always great to receive. Recently I have gotten some wonderful feedback from a few new Channel Partners that we’ve brought aboard this year. Just yesterday I received an email from the CEO of a large VAR/consulting company who had the experience of going on a week’s worth of appointments in Europe with Bill Cannon, Monolith’s VP of Sales. Here is his feedback in an email to me:
“Jeff,
I just wanted to drop you a mail to say Thank You.
Having Bill over here this week was eye-opening, I have been blown away by the reaction of people in ALL the companies we went to see this week. In all my years in this business I have never seen such a level of interest from such a disparate group of companies in such a short time. I know it is early days but I really think we will do a lot of business with Monolith and I think we will both have a lot of happy customers.”
It is my belief that the monitoring & management market has seen very little advancement in the past decade. The majority of activity that has occurred has been acquisition-based, by what I like to call the Big Four Aggregators. It seems as though actually developing software – writing your own code – is a thing of the past. Buying varying code sets, putting them on your price list and calling it a framework offering just doesn’t seem to be the best approach if your goal is to lower costs, increase operational efficiency, perform advanced correlation, improve visibility though comprehensive dashboarding or delivering automated SLM capabilities.
When prospective customers hear the Monolith story, they get excited. We spent a decade selling and implementing software from other vendors in the market, and came to the realization that there MUST be a better way. We then went to work building the industry’s only (to my knowledge) monitoring and management solution that is 100% built from the ground up by us (no acquired code), is 100% browser based & plug-in free, and addresses the key monitoring disciplines of discovery, mapping, correlation, fault/event management, performance management, dashboarding, & service level management.
If you believe in simplicity versus complexity; if you believe in the advantages of pre-built integration versus manual integration; if you are interested in seeing what an integrated code set solution can deliver versus an acquired patchwork of code; then Monolith Software just might be what you are looking for.
Cheers,
Jeff
