This is truly a difficult one and some may say that some of the answer s are cliche and don't really showcase the forward planning on this transition. Truthfully, IT has increased in complexity and management of this complexity will remain for at least another 10 years. I can say that Kaseya has their ear to the ground and even though remote monitoring is an important part of what we do, there are plans to expand far beyond so that we can assist our customers for many more years to come. Thanks for the post and I wish you the best, Chad Gniffke Sr. Product Marketing Manager, Kaseya David,

The challenge for these vendors is whether or not they can adapt to a shifting market, but the competition once they get there. These vendors are designed for service providers to manage multiple customer environments. When a cloud vendor sets up monitoring and management for a large, virtualized data center or computing grid, the demands are greater. Not only is there a difference in scale, but complexity. Once these vendors step into that market, they are up against some big players (HP, IBM, etc. ) , and large open source solutions (Nagios, Cacti, etc) that are already entrenched in corporate data centers.
