Interesting. My kneejerk response is to say that I don't think they necessarily did all of the market research they could (or maybe, they targetted a specific demographic, rather than "people who need IT monitoring"). No mention of Spiceworks, Solar Winds, or What's Up Gold? That seems odd to me.
But as far as monitoring in the largely-open-source world goes, I think they've correctly identified a lot of the reasons monitoring can suck. Solving those problems is obviously hard - or someone would have done it already. If they can make traction on even one of those problems, that would be a win, though I have a personal theory that a lot of the problems with monitoring stem from the fact that even we don't *really* know what we want.
