"I Didn't Know SolarWinds Could Do That"

Technical Workshop

Thursday, 13 March 2025 | Cirencester, UK

‘I didn’t know SolarWinds could do that…’ If we had a pound for every time a student in one of our training classes uttered those words, our pockets would be considerably heavier. Many organisations invest heavily but fail to fully leverage their tools.

At Loop1, we bridge this gap using our Loop1 Monitoring Maturity Model (L1M3), helping clients unlock their tools’ full potential, optimise usage, and enhance IT operations.

Join us on Thursday, 13 March 2025, in Cirencester for our first SolarWinds Technical Workshop of 2025, led by Glen Kershaw and Greg Forsyth. Our expert team will share best practices, strategies, and real-world examples to help you excel in SolarWinds.

Workshop Highlights:

  • Explore SolarWinds’ Observability, Database, and Service Management solutions.
  • Discover hidden features you may have overlooked.
  • Learn how Loop1 services can enhance your SolarWinds experience.
  • Hear how L1M3 uses IT tools to improve business services.
  • Complimentary lunch and meet the UK team!

Here’s what past Workshop attendees have said:

“Greg's product knowledge is absolutely outstanding!”

“We loved the food, the quizzes, and the opportunity to network with experienced individuals. The session helped us understand the capabilities of SolarWinds much better.”
