Award puts wind in the sails of software firm

Innovative software company SolarWinds was last night named Cork Company of the Year in recognition of the remarkable success of its operations over the past eight years.

The first tenant in Mahon’s City Gate campus on the outskirts of the city, SolarWinds has become a cornerstone of the tech landscape and has been recognised as such by the Cork Chamber of Commerce.

Acting as the Texas company’s international headquarters, SolarWinds’ Cork base has helped drive growth across the world since arriving in Ireland in 2007 — offering a range of purpose-built products to businesses of all shapes and sizes in need of IT solutions.
