Company

Founded in 2009 by industry veterans
David Roth (CEO) and Donn Rochette (CTO)

The Problem:

There are lots of performance monitoring solutions out there, but many companies still rely on their customers to let them know when a site is running slowly or down.  By that point, it’s too late, and you have angry customers to deal with while you’re trying to solve a problem! David and Donn knew that there must be a better way…

The Solution:

AppFirst was founded on the theory that you can’t manage what you can’t see.  The more information a company has about their product and how it actually runs in production, the more effectively that company will be able to quickly find and resolve any problems that come up.  We work with customers and design partners to provide a product that makes your life easier.

Our Values:

  • Customer-centric - we start from the premise that we are successful only if our customers are successful
  • Transparency - communication is critical with all of our customers, coworkers, partners, shareholders, etc.
  • People First - we value trust, respect, and individual opinions – we live by the “golden rule”
  • Fun - we create a fun and productive environment in our offices and on our website
  • Give Back – we live within a community that supports us, and we commit to support it in meaningful ways
