September 19th, 2006 No comments
Intel Capital joins other venture capital investors in Managed Objects
Managed Objects, the Business Service Management Company, announced that it has closed a $7 Million round of Series F financing from Intel Capital, and current investors Lazard Technology Partners, JMI, FT Ventures, Horizon Technology Finance, and an individual investor. Managed Objects will use the funding to provide the necessary working capital to support the company’s technology acquisition program and future expansion plan.
“We are very proud to add Intel Capital to our prestigious list of investors,” said Siki Giunta, president and CEO of Managed Objects. “These new funds will allow us to aggressively pursue new market segments, while maintaining customer focus on the business service management needs of the Global 2000 companies we serve today. With a strong customer pipeline and solid plans to support our rapid growth, we are extremely excited about our company’s future.”
Managed Objects’ Business Service Management software aligns IT with the business by integrating network, system, application, end user, and business metric information into real-time dashboards – allowing companies to cohesively monitor, manage and report on the services IT delivers to the business – services like online trading and e-commerce.
“Increasingly, IT professionals face the dilemma of pulling together multi-source service management data while efficiently responding to business user demands,” said Scott Darling, Vice President, Intel Capital. “Managed Objects’ comprehensive Business Service Management platform, based on open software standards and configurations, helps IT professionals assemble this information more easily while delivering critical services-key to enabling cost reductions and higher customer satisfaction.”
The increased demand for business service management has greatly driven Managed Objects’ rapid growth in recent years. A number of industry analysts and pundits forecast continued strength in the BSM market segment.
In a recent report, Forrester Research wrote “We believe that BSM (Business Service Management) will increasingly become the end goal for organizations…The BSM side of the market will continue to be a dynamic area of high innovation, particularly around better defining business processes, dynamically mapping business needs to IT services, and enabling true end-to-end service delivery chains for the extended enterprise.”
To support the needs of global customers, Managed Objects now has offices throughout the world, including the US, UK, Germany, France, and China and has opened a new development center in the UK.
