Help Customers – Have Fun – Make Money

That’s our mission at the OpenNMS Group. The great news is that when we serve customers well and have fun doing it, we all make money.

We founded the OpenNMS Group in 2004 because we were looking for a better way to take care of carrier and enterprise clients. We’d seen how the established solutions from HP, IBM and others were expensive, inflexible and hard to deploy. We’d seen how clients had to change their business process to fit the tool instead of the other way around. There had to be a better way, and we were just the team to find it.

The product we created became the OpenNMS network management application platform – a true open source platform that’s managing telecom and enterprise networks around the world: from the Paris subway to a Honduran mobile telephone network. OpenNMS is the world’s first fully open source enterprise-grade network service management platform, and hundreds of enterprises are using it every day without a lick of help from us. It’s that easy to work with. And as true open source, it’s 100% free.

As proud creators and maintainers of the OpenNMS Platform, we welcome you to the table. Please use every free resource that we have, and if you never need to spend a dollar on OpenNMS, that’s fine with us. But if you have more complex needs or tight schedules, the OpenNMS Group is happy to assist with our paid services. We provide training, support, custom development and consulting from our headquarters near Research Triangle, North Carolina, or at your site – whether you are in San Francisco, Auckland or Dubai. We know you’re smart people. We just help you get smarter, faster; and done, sooner. Take a look at our Case Studies and Testimonials and you’ll know whether you need to hire us, and why you’ll smile if you do.

We are an ISP. Our network is what we actually sell, and that’s why we must have top performance from our network management system. We didn’t get top performance with our old system, but we do with OpenNMS. - Michael Micheletti, Manager of Engineering, Towerstream

In six hours, we had OpenNMS running with all the functionality that it had taken us three years to develop with Openview NNM. This was a rude but happy awakening. - Dale Meyerhoffer, Senior Network Analyst, Hershey Medical Center

I was the only IT person at the office, but with OpenNMS, it was easy to keep track of everything on the network, including our snow and ice-covered traffic light system. If there had been a problem, OpenNMS would have let me know. - John Jennery, City of Grapevine, Texas
