ScienceLogic Announces Successful Completion of MSPAlliance Vendor Accreditation Program

RESTON, VA--(Marketwire - Aug 2, 2011) - ScienceLogic^™ Inc., a provider of IT operations and cloud management solutions, today announced that it has received accreditation under the MSPAlliance's (MSPA) Vendor Accreditation Program (VAP). VAP is the first program of its kind, specifically designed by managed service providers (MSPs) as a benchmark for vendors who sell to the MSP community. Vendors who bear the VAP seal have shown they abide by the highest principles of quality in areas such as financial stability, positive channel practices, product research and development, and MSP customer satisfaction.

"The Vendor Accreditation Program is important to MSPs, since companies that receive accreditation have demonstrated their ongoing commitment to the channel," said Charles Weaver, president of the MSPAlliance. "We are very proud to have ScienceLogic as a part of this prestigious body of vendors."

VAP was created using a wide base of criteria considered as critical by MSPs when selecting a vendor. Criteria examined during the accreditation process include:

• Business practices: Focusing on channel development, channel competition safeguards, experience in the managed services industry, etc.
• Product Roadmap: Examining the vendor's willingness to invest in their products in order to ensure continued relevance for the MSPs on a continued basis.
• Financial: Examination of financial stability to ensure adequate support of channel initiatives and product development.
• Client References: Vendor must provide at least three MSP specific client references.

"With a combined 45 years working in the service provider industry, ScienceLogic founders lived the IT management problem that we became passionate about solving. Our EM7 platform addresses service providers' unique needs with comprehensive, centralized management of highly distributed data center and cloud environments," said David Link, ScienceLogic CEO.
