LEXINGTON, Mass. & CLEVELAND (BusinessWire EON) September 19, 2007 --
AccuRev Inc., and Urbancode, provider of process automation products
such as build management and Application Lifecycle Automation servers,
today announced a joint technology and marketing partnership. The
partnership has been formed to advance process automation and Agile
adoption though a combination of AccuRev’s
process-centric software
configuration management (SCM) and Urbancode’s
application
lifecycle automation solutions. In addition, both companies have
strong overlap in the ISV, embedded software and financial markets where
mission critical software development is key to business success.
As an AccuRev Technology Partner, Urbancode furthers AccuRev’s
best-of-breed application
lifecycle management (ALM) coverage in the areas of distributed
builds, automated tests, promotions, deployments, and release
management. AccuRev adds value to Urbancode’s
customers that are struggling to meet the challenges of today’s
complex geographically distributed and parallel development or wish to
move to a more Agile
development environment.
Maciej Zawadzki, CEO of Urbancode, said, “Many
of our clients are looking to change their current software change and
configuration management tools or increase the effectiveness of their
application lifecycle management solutions to advance source control,
issue management and process automation across the application
development lifecycle. AccuRev and Urbancode are a perfect fit for many
of our customers and we’re very excited about
strengthening our relationship.”
Cliff Utstein, vice president of sales marketing, AccuRev Inc., said, “The
partnership with Urbancode gives our joint customers the benefits of an
integrated application lifecycle management (ALM) solution based on the
best-of-breed tool sets of AccuRev SCM and AnthillPro. A recent AccuRev
customer survey revealed a strong desire to improve their build process,
and through this partnership we are providing our customers with a
compelling solution that addresses this need.”
