SolarWinds® monitoring services

Managed where it matters. Flexible where it counts.

Expert-led services for your SolarWinds Platform, focused on maintaining performance, reducing noise, and aligning monitoring and observability with real operational outcomes — whether through proactive management or on-demand SolarWinds expertise.

Modern IT environments don’t fail because teams don’t care; they fail because monitoring and observability platforms aren’t continuously maintained, tuned, and evolved as the business changes.

Loop1 provides expert-led monitoring & observability services that keep your platforms reliable, relevant, and aligned to real operational outcomes, today and as you grow.

We don’t just keep the lights on. We stabilize, optimize, and evolve your SolarWinds Platform, not just respond when something breaks. We help you move up the maturity curve, deliberately, measurably, and sustainably.

What we do

Loop1 acts as an extension of your team, providing ongoing oversight, improvement, and expert support across your monitoring and observability stack. Built specifically for the SolarWinds Platform, with best-practice monitoring principles that extend across hybrid environments.
Ensure tools are configured to support operational outcomes
Reduce alert noise and eliminate blind spots
Improve platform performance, reliability, and confidence
Build a clear roadmap from where you are today to where you need to be
Stay current as platforms, environments, and priorities change

Our service models

Every organization’s needs are different. Some require continuous, hands-on management of their monitoring and observability platforms, while others need expert support only at specific moments. The right level of support depends on your environment, internal capabilities, and the criticality of your monitoring platforms.

We offer two flexible service models: one focused on ongoing proactive management, and one designed for targeted, on-demand expertise, both delivered by the same Loop1 engineers and guided by the same best-practice approach.

Proactive services

Our core offering. Best for organizations that want predictability, stability, and continuous improvement.

Proactive services are delivered as an ongoing partnership. Loop1 provides daily operational care, continuous optimization, and strategic guidance, not just reactive support. This model is designed for organizations where monitoring and observability are business-critical, not “set and forget.”

What it looks like in practice

Proactive services combine day-to-day operational care with long-term platform evolution, delivered by the same Loop1 engineers throughout the engagement.

On-demand Services

Flexible expertise, when you need it the most

On-demand services are delivered as a flexible engagement. Loop1 provides targeted, expert support for defined initiatives or challenges, without the need for an ongoing partnership.

A pre-paid block of hours (minimum of 40) is purchased and used as needed over a 12-month period. Work is scheduled in collaboration with the Loop1 engineering team, providing flexible access to senior expertise when it matters most.

Common use cases include:

  • Platform upgrades or migrations
  • Alert tuning and remediation
  • Dashboard, report, or integration development
  • Short-term performance or stability issues
  • Break-fix support and remediation

 

On-demand services are ideal when:

  • You need help fast
  • The scope is clearly defined
  • You want access to expertise without a long-term commitment

 

Many customers begin here and transition to our proactive service as their environment expands, and the value of continuous oversight becomes evident.

How we're different

Vendor-agnostic by design
We focus on outcomes, not tools. Our engineers have a deep understanding of monitoring & observability platforms, but our guidance is driven by what your business needs, not vendor agendas.

Maturity-led, not task-driven
Every engagement is anchored to your current state and desired outcomes, using Loop1’s Monitoring Maturity Model (L1M3) to guide priorities and progress.

Whether you engage us proactively or on demand, our services are designed to improve the reliability, effectiveness, and long-term value of your monitoring and observability platforms — not just keep them running.

Designed to evolve with your environment
While many engagements begin with SolarWinds, our services are built to support:

Multi-vendor monitoring environments

Hybrid and cloud-first architectures

Increasing automation and AIOps adoption

As your tooling, teams, and priorities change, your service model doesn’t need to be reinvented; it adapts.

Let's put your monitoring & observability to work

Whether you need ongoing proactive support or expert help on demand, we’ll help you take the next step with confidence.
