Pros
AccelOps has a pretty good product that can do end-to-end IT operational data analysis, including security event monitoring, performance monitoring and configuration change monitoring. Customers have shown strong interest in this since this simplifies deployment and their daily work, and also reduces their cost. As an engineer, I found that this brings many interesting problem to solve, not just because of the above combinations bring many new exciting features, but also the scalability and performance issue that need to dealt with, and the fast changing technologies like cloud computing and mobile devices. The best thing for this company is its strong Silicon Valley startup culture. People working here have strong passion in innovation, and enjoy to see the direct impact of new software on people's life. And the company is now well funded and its customer base is growing quickly. All of these are great signs for a successful Silicon Valley startup.
Cons
Need to move even faster to meet the new customer requirements. Need more talents in different areas Engineering, Marketing, Sales, etc., to help it succeed.
