Independent industry analyst firm, Research in Action has recognized Compuware as the no.1 vendor for Deep Application Transaction Management globally. Compuware Corporation (CPWR) is a technology performance company that delivers a new generation of application performance management.
The Reseach in Action market analysis report titled "The Need for Speed: Research In Action Vendor Selection Matrix - Deep Application Transaction Management," evaluated ten vendors. The evaluation was done on their strategy and execution capabilities. Among all ten vendors, Compuware was awarded top spot in both of the categories.
The technology performance company was also found to have the highest customer satisfaction and mind share of all ten vendors.
"As users grow increasingly mobile and with applications distributed across the enterprise and cloud, it's becoming more of a challenge to maintain IT service quality," said Dr. Thomas Mendel Ph.D., Managing Director of Research in Action. "Most enterprises now face the challenge of managing not only their legacy systems, but also a mixed bag of web applications and cloud services, significantly increasing complexity. As a result, IT service managers require the ability to auto-discover performance issues and gain a detailed level of visibility into the real end-user experience. This enables them to monitor performance not only within their own infrastructure, but along the entire application transaction path, from origin to end-user."
"Compuware today covers all aspects of the deep application transaction management market extremely well," added Mendel. "By enabling customers to choose between SaaS and traditional deployment methods, the outlook for Compuware is positive."
Analyst firm Research in Action defines the APM market as the monitoring as well as managing of the performance of available softwares. It values the market at around $5 billion in software licenses which also includes its maintenance and SaaS revenues. However in the past few years the market has become crowded, and the term APM has been diluted up to a large extent.
