SolarWinds Observability provides organizations with a full-stack observability solution that includes real-user monitoring (RUM) and synthetic transaction monitoring (STM) capabilities. These features enable IT teams to monitor the performance and availability of digital services and simulate mobile device views to better understand end-user experience.

“To us, being recognized again in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Digital Experience Monitoring reinforces the progress we’ve made in delivering unified, powerful observability for our customers,” said Cullen Childress, Chief Product Officer, SolarWinds. “Our mission remains the same — to help IT teams simplify complexity, proactively optimize performance, and ensure exceptional digital experiences for users everywhere.”

SolarWinds Observability supports both SaaS and self-hosted deployments, offering customers flexibility to choose the model that best fits their needs. The platform also enables API-based lifecycle management of RUM configurations, allowing teams to automate deployments and integrate observability into CI/CD workflows.

SolarWinds continues to expand its observability capabilities, with a product roadmap that includes session replay functionality, RUM instrumentation for mobile applications, and synthetic monitoring for multifactor-authentication (MFA) protected applications — further strengthening its Digital Experience Monitoring capabilities.

“We feel this recognition represents how far we’ve come in redefining what IT observability means for modern organizations,” said Brian Goldfarb, Chief Marketing Officer, SolarWinds. “We’re proud to help customers connect digital performance to business outcomes — unifying insights across applications, infrastructure, and user experience through a single platform. It’s about giving teams the visibility and intelligence they need to deliver reliable experiences every time.”

The company’s placement in this year’s Magic Quadrant follows a year of continued innovation and momentum, including new AI-driven insights, expanded partner programs, and its ongoing commitment to helping organizations achieve full-stack visibility across complex hybrid and cloud environments.
