LEXINGTON, Mass. (Business Wire EON) February 26, 2008 --
AccuRev Inc. today announced it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in
the visionaries quadrant in the recently released “Magic
Quadrant for Software Change and Configuration for Distributed
Platforms, 2008” report.(1)
In the report, Gartner states, “A wave of new
requirements has arisen because of increased attention to auditability, globally
distributed development, agile
practices and the progressive adoption of more-disciplined
governance and management oversight. During the past several years, the
open-source and commercial products that had been the standards of the
sector since the mid-1990s began to decrease in popularity. Many users
of Concurrent Versions System (CVS), Visual Source Safe, Polytron
Version Control System (PVCS) and IBM's basic ClearCase
are exploring new offerings to see whether they are better able to
support emerging needs.”
Cliff Utstein, vice president, marketing, AccuRev said, “AccuRev
solves the difficult issues facing today’s
software development teams through industry leading innovation. The
rapid adoption of AccuRev software has provided development teams
powerful tools to manage geographically distributed development,
parallel development, and agile development processes. Our vision is to
deliver to our customers a significant improvement in development
effectiveness through innovative tools and processes.”
AccuRev is the only SCCM
solution to manage an organization’s
flexible software release process together with its software assets
directly in a stream-based, integrated version
control and issue-tracking graphical user interface. In addition to
making co-located and geographically distributed teams’
current methods of work more productive, AccuRev makes more ways of
working possible. Unlike traditional file-based, branch and label source
code control solutions that put constraints on teams’
abilities to work with multiple and simultaneous process models (e.g.,
Scrum, XP, Lean, RUP) or work in a multistage
continuous integration environment, AccuRev unleashes the potential
of development teams, opening up possibilities never before realized.
