Today, we’re excited to share some meaningful news both for the OpsNow team and for all of our customers who use OpsNow.

OpsNow has been selected as a finalist in the “Marketplace Partner of the Year – APJ” category at the “2025 Geo and Global AWS Partner Awards” announced by AWS.

What does “Marketplace Partner of the Year” recognize?

As the name suggests, Marketplace Partner of the Year is an award given to partners that have achieved significant business results on AWS Marketplace.

It comprehensively evaluates factors such as:

• Transaction volume and growth through AWS Marketplace
• Business value and customer success stories delivered to customers
• How strategically the partner has leveraged the Marketplace channel

Based on these, AWS selects winners and finalists by Geo (region) and Global.
In other words, being named a finalist this year is an official recognition that “OpsNow’s way of reaching customers via AWS Marketplace has reached a level that is meaningful even by AWS’s standards.”

At the center of this achievement: “AlertNow”

This finalist recognition is based on the performance of AlertNow, OpsNow’s cloud monitoring and alerting service, on AWS Marketplace.

AlertNow started from the following problem statements:

• As companies use cloud infrastructure, applications, and various SaaS tools, events and alerts become fragmented across multiple tools
• Operations and development teams end up spending a lot of energy trying to distinguish critical alerts from non-critical ones
• As a result, they either miss issues that should not be missed, or end up with an unnecessarily exhausting on-call environment

AlertNow aims to improve this reality by:

• Aggregating alerts from various cloud and monitoring sources into a single place
• Organizing and routing alerts by team and service
  
• Helping teams manage incident and issue response as a workflow

We see this finalist recognition as evidence that this AlertNow-centric Marketplace business has achieved results that exceed the criteria set by AWS.

Connection with the broader OpsNow platform: FinOps + Operations‍

OpsNow is not a single-product company. We provide multiple products that cover cloud and business operations end-to-end, including:

• FinOps Plus – A FinOps platform for cloud cost visibility, allocation, and optimization
• AutoSavings – An AI-based optimization feature that not only recommends actions but actually automates cost savings
• AlertNow – An operations platform for cloud and service monitoring, alerting, and incident response
• In addition, Prime, a carbon emissions monitoring system, and other products that support broader cloud and business operations

While AlertNow delivered the specific results behind this award, internally we see this as “a signal that the overall OpsNow platform strategy is on the right track.”

• FinOps Plus and AutoSavings address challenges from a cloud cost and financial perspective.
• AlertNow addresses challenges from an operations, alerting, and incident response perspective.
• All of these are connected within the customer journey through the AWS Marketplace channel.

FinOps Certified Platform, SOC 2, and now an AWS Award

OpsNow’s platform reliability and stability have already been validated through the following certifications:

• FinOps Certified Platform (FCP) from the FinOps Foundation – based on FinOps Plus
• SOC 2 Type II – Meeting international standards for SaaS service quality, including security, availability, and integrity

On top of this, the title of “2025 AWS Marketplace Partner of the Year – APJ Finalist” further validates OpsNow’s direction of addressing both cloud cost management (FinOps) and cloud operations together.

What’s next

We see this finalist recognition not as a “completion report,” but more as a starting line for the next stage.

• We will organize and share more real-world operations and alerting case studies from customers who adopted AlertNow via AWS Marketplace.
• We will continue to share integrated scenarios and best practices that bring together FinOps Plus, AutoSavings, and AlertNow.
• We will keep improving the product experience so that we can expand our touchpoints not only in Korea but across APJ and ultimately global customers.

In an era where doing just one of the two well—cloud cost management or cloud operations—is already challenging, we are deeply grateful to all customers who chose OpsNow.

We will continue to stay true to our original mission of being “the team that helps you use cloud better” and deliver better experiences across the entire spectrum of FinOps and Operations.
