Solarwinds is a laughingstock. No one competent uses it.

One of the least respected companies in the industry, and that’s saying something.

Alot of people use it, especially in the middle sized crowd as the big NPMs cost way too much and self development is too time consuming. It leaves alot ot be desired though.

And as a correction to my earlier post, now that I've see exactly what the attack was, it is very bad. They trojanized a core dependency in solarwinds which would let them effectively disguise as an admin service and push out whatever tasks they want from within. Anyone who doesn't isolate their network well would be in for some tragedy.
