>HoundDog Technology, developer of easy, affordable IT support tools for MSPs, today announced that it is furthering its international outreach by opening an office in Paris, France. Headed up by newly appointed Business Development Officer, Franck Debka, the office will provide the springboard for the company in expanding its international market. The product offers a French revolution by enabling French MSPs and IT Support companies to monitor their clients’ networks more effectively and increase service offerings to their customer base.

This year, HoundDog Technology plans to treble its global turnover. Whilst much of this growth will come from existing markets, a key part of this target is fuelled by the company’s international expansion plans. The company also aims to quadruple its business in France by the end of 2008.

“I am delighted to head up the French arm of HoundDog Technology and am eager to see the reception from French IT support companies to our solution,” comments Business Development Officer, Franck Debka. “There is most definitely a strong demand for a solution such as HoundDog in France. This is partly fuelled by the fact that the market for such a tool is so ripe and also because there is no initial investment required or a minimum length of contract for HoundDog users; just a simple affordable monthly fee.”

HoundDog Technology provides easy to use and affordable network monitoring, specifically designed for IT support companies who wish to provide a more responsive service to their clients who are often based in disparate locations. Written from the ground up to be easy to use and quick to install, users can monitor all of the ‘live’ IT at their customers’ sites, offering proactive alerting to issues relating to disk space, backup, failed RAID disks, website downtime, AV updates and more.

“We have high expectations for the way our solution is going to be received in France and will soon be looking to expand our technical support team in our Parisian office to support this demand,” adds HoundDog Technology CEO, Doug Wilson. “With Debka’s experience in business development and sales for companies such as HP and COLT in conjunction with the ease of use and functionality of HoundDog, French IT support companies will quickly discover that the margins to be made using the tool are extremely appealing.”
