Monolith Leverages AJAX in 3.1 Release
Chicago, IL - August 28, 2006 - Privately held Monolith Technology Holdings (aka Monolith Software) today announced mSuite version 3.1, the latest release of its Enterprise Technology Management solution which aims to provide customers with a single solution to allow organizations to proactively manage and monitor their IT Infrastructures. Available immediately, mSuite version 3.1 builds on numerous new advanced features that enable it to proactively monitor any environments.
"Version 3.0 brought us to parity or just beyond with our primary competitors in the marketplace. Version 3.1 takes us well beyond what the competition is doing in the event management space. I would welcome any Micromuse Netcool/Omnibus customer to compare our offering to their existing deployment. We offer these accounts the opportunity to get out of the new licensing scheme, dump the java based clients and lower their ongoing cost of ownership by 50% or more,” said Jeff Parker, President of Monolith Software. "With this release, we have added significant new features and functionality that were clearly missing from the current market leaders."
