I think still to this day largely people don’t realize that there is a pro version. Just out of curiosity, how did people react when you added Ninite Pro? Was there any backlash on that or were people pretty receptive? We quickly heard from a bunch of people that wanted more features and that became Ninite Pro and Ninite One. And they did! So we switched over and started doing Ninite stuff. So, we thought we could automate that and people might find it useful. At the time, we were setting up all these test virtual machines and always installing Firefox and all these other apps on those machines.

So the next time, we decided to try something very simple. We did that for a while and had trouble figuring out how to market and explain it to people. It was pretty tough going alone, so we teamed up midway through it and started work on what Sascha was doing, which was application sandboxing for Windows. Yeah, Sascha and I actually met at YCombinator, we were both doing single founder companies back in winter 2008. First off, can you guys give us a little bit of background about yourselves? So without further ado, here’s the interview: Ninite was one of our favorite tools to add to TechWARU, so it was fun to learn more about what they do and how they started. We recently sat down with the co-founders of, Patrick and Sascha, to learn more about their awesome company and how it helps IT Professionals.
