I'm waiting for the day you can buy a SolarWinds appliance that you can stick in your rack and configure. Yes, it'd be expensive, and yes it'd be a re-badged server from one of the big three, but it would make life so much easier as it'd be guaranteed to work out of the box (hence: appliance).
That'd make some aspects of the sales journey a lot easier for the sales bods, and make life easier for the monitoring engineer, as they just connect to the appliance and crack on on day one, without first having to install the OS, configure the RAIDs appropriately blah blah.
Still, those days are chargeable... swings and roundabouts I guess
