like they were getting the best deal on the market," said
Jay Kirby, Troubadour co-founder and
executive vice president of sales and marketing. "With Nimsoft, we

hosted in our cloud environment. NMS allows us to provide this
collaborative model with a high degree of built-in flexibility and
customization, while helping us deliver the high availability of
systems and applications our customers expect."
Prior to deploying NMS, the IT team at Troubadour used a variety
of low-end monitoring systems to meet customers' individual
requests. The team decided to take a more holistic approach
in monitoring services delivered through the VDC, and evaluated a
variety of solutions before selecting Nimsoft.

Troubadour's VDC provides a hosted cloud environment for customers'
mission-critical systems and applications. With Nimsoft, the VDC

of customers' individual environments. Customers can access the
same dashboards over the Web any time, from any browser. They can
also customize the dashboards to meet their specific business
needs. Using the flexible customization features of NMS, Troubadour
can even create dashboards with customer logos and branding.
"In the highly competitive cloud infrastructure space where
Troubadour operates, differentiated value is absolutely essential
to growth and profitability," said Gary Read, senior vice president
and general manager of the Nimsoft business unit at CA
