Management Team
Jeff Parker
President & Managing Partner
Jeff Parker has over 16 years of experience in the technology arena. Jeff holds a double major in Enterprise Management and Operations Management & Information Systems from Northern Illinois University.
Currently, Parker is President and a Managing Partner of Monolith Software, a software company that delivers cost effective and highly scalable management solutions to organizations seeking to better manage their technology infrastructures. Parker and Shawn Ennis founded Monolith in April, 2005 to bring to market management software to address the needs of organizations looking to better manage their infrastructures with solutions that are cost effective, deliver quick time to value, are easy to use, and that solve real problems facing organizations that need to proactively manage and monitor their technology assets. Jeff provides Monolith with leadership in company direction, sales, marketing, and partner alliances.
The management software marketplace is filled with companies that all seemingly look alike and deliver similar solution sets. Monolith's competency is built around a highly scalable, intuitive event management engine. This is an area of the management software market that is highly under served and lacking good alternatives. The current solutions being offered are highly expensive, difficult to deploy and hard to maintain. Monolith breaks this paradigm by delivering features not found from the likes of IBM, HP, BMC and CA.
Prior to co-founding Monolith, Jeff worked for industry stalwarts such as Windward Consulting Group, Netigy, Cisco Systems and Motorola. Jeff prides himself on understanding client's business and technical requirements in order to deliver rationalized, impactful, business aligned technology solutions. Voice/video/data convergence, network & enterprise management and security have been key areas of focus throughout his career.
