The Challenge

Idea 11, an Australian IT company specializing in digital transformation, cloud infrastructure, software development, and managed services, was facing a challenge with its previous monitoring tool, PRTG. The tool required extensive manual labor and was not able to scale with Idea 11’s rapid growth. The company was growing by 50% year-over-year and needed a more cloud-centric monitoring solution that could scale with its growth. The company was looking for a single SaaS-based monitoring platform that could provide a single pane of glass for monitoring and allow the business to better serve its customers.

About The Customer

Idea 11 is an award-winning, full-stack Amazon Web Services (AWS) IT company based in Australia. The company specializes in digital transformation, cloud infrastructure, software development, and managed services. As an AWS Advanced Partner, Idea 11 has won numerous awards, including the CRN Fast 50, AFR Fast 100, and the Deloitte Technology Fast 50. The company has experienced significant growth, with a 50% year-over-year growth rate for the last four years. The company's customer base is primarily in the cloud, reflecting its status as an AWS Advanced Partner.

The Solution

After reviewing several monitoring solutions and conducting a cost-analysis and technical evaluation, Idea 11 selected the LogicMonitor platform. LogicMonitor was the only platform that included all of the features that Idea 11 was looking for within a single pane of glass. It would allow the business to scale without hiring as many additional staff. LogicMonitor’s Active Discovery™ capabilities, which automatically update monitoring instances when a change is made to the production environment, was also a deciding factor. With LogicMonitor’s API-driven approach and integration with AWS, Idea 11 has built extensive automation around its onboarding process.
