/EINPresswire.com/ -- CORK, IRELAND--(Marketwired - March 28, 2016) - SolarWinds, a leading provider of powerful and affordable IT management software, today announced that it will host interactive, free National Government User Groups in Manchester on April 7 and in London on April 12.

National, central, federal, NATO and European Union users and systems integrators are invited to join SolarWinds technical experts and leaders for discussions on how government agencies are solving IT management and monitoring challenges. Attendees will have the opportunity to get in-depth demonstrations of SolarWinds' newest technology, network with their peers and SolarWinds team members, and weigh in on the critical demands of their roles in IT.

"National and central government IT professionals face a unique set of challenges and it remains one of our priorities to engage with these customers regularly, provide education about how to solve their specific problems, and get valuable feedback in order to better develop our products to serve their needs," said David Kimball, group vice president, federal and national government, SolarWinds. "Building upon the success of our first user group in 2015, we hope to continue the terrific conversations that we started so attendees walk away with actionable information and insight that they can implement in their environments to help them better serve their agencies' missions."

Both National Government User Groups will include several interactive presentations led by Joel Dolisy, CIO, SolarWinds, and technical engineers as well as the opportunity for attendees to discuss and provide feedback on topics and trends. Presentation topics include:
