New Relic announced a collaboration with Carta and Zendesk to expand access to its startups program to empower early-stage engineering teams with access to the same tools used by world-class organizations.
This collaboration accelerates New Relic’s goal to democratize access to observability so that all engineering teams can monitor, debug, and optimize their entire stack to deliver better customer experiences.
New Relic for Startups launched in 2021 with the goal to give every engineer at startups the tools to deliver software with confidence without compromising vendor choices due to cost or engineering constraints. The program has rapidly grown to include hundreds of early-stage startups across every industry, from finance and media to gaming and retail.
Now, Carta and Zendesk have collaborated with New Relic for Startups to provide best-in-class platforms to scale both engineering and business practices to the next generation of founders. This includes making the New Relic observability platform accessible to fast-growing startups that are currently using Carta or Zendesk tools.
In addition, companies in the New Relic for Startups program have greater access to tools and resources provided by Carta and Zendesk. Benefits for eligible startups include:
- Access to the same developer tools world-class engineering organizations use to observe, analyze, and improve the performance of their software, including the New Relic observability platform that unifies 16 monitoring tools in one.
- Generous credits and discounts across the New Relic observability platform, Carta’s equity management and company-building solutions, and Zendesk’s customer service, engagement, and sales CRM solution so startups can focus on building companies around big ideas while preserving burn rates.
- Easier qualification across the three programs. Startups already qualified for Carta and Zendesk’s programs will likely qualify for New Relic for Startups, and startups in the New Relic for Startups program will likely qualify for programs provided by Carta and Zendesk.
“Access to powerful tooling and the ability to keep costs down can mean the difference between success and failure for organizations,” said New Relic for Startups Lead Dayna Lord. “Every startup deserves access to the observability tooling and resources needed to build and scale their vision. By teaming up with companies like Carta and Zendesk, accelerators, VCs, and incubators, we are enabling every builder to establish DevOps and data-driven engineering practices early, and to see a complete picture of their apps and systems within a single platform.”
To qualify for New Relic for Startups, startups must be seed to pre-series B in financing, less than 10 years old, not a current New Relic customer, and have fewer than 100 employees.
