6. SolarWinds has always been following the aggressive acquisition and selling style of business.
Being a public company , their primary focus was profit and how to benefit the share holders.
This resulted in interoperability issues between different products in the portfolio as the
company tries to fit in acquired solutions.
Site24x7 on the other hand has always focused on customers. With that very same intent, we
have developed all the features meticulously thinking about how we can simplify and make
monitoring more meaningful for end users. For us, it has always been “Customers First”.

7. IT management software company SolarWinds announced on Wednesday that it will be
acquired by private equity firms Silver Lake Partners and Thoma Bravo.
Ref. - http://www.cnbc.com/2015/10/21/solarwinds-to-be-acquired-by-silver-lake-
partners-thoma-bravo.html
We, at Site24x7 weren't really surprised by the acquisition. After all, a company that
acquired product strategies to stay competitive in the market would eventually not
make it to the finish line.
