AccuRev Announces IBM Rational ClearCase Upgrade Program
Lexington, MA, March 05, 2009 --(PR.com)-- AccuRev Inc. today announced its ClearCase® Upgrade Program. This program allows organizations using ClearCase to purchase AccuRev for less than the cost of their current IBM Rational maintenance agreement. Additionally, it provides a proven coexistence and migration strategy enabling ClearCase users to adopt AccuRev at their own pace.
AccuRev has often been described as the logical upgrade to ClearCase. It shares many concepts, including the Stream architecture with ClearCase UCM, but was architected to have native support of Streams. It also provides the tools to integrate into an existing ClearCase and ClearQuest® infrastructure.
Organizations, as a means to decrease costs and complexity while increasing productivity, are researching and implementing a breadth of new development practices, technologies and solutions in the enterprise. Management is scrutinizing the high cost of ClearCase licensing, training and maintenance, and is now more open than ever to considering solutions that increase development throughput while also saving money.
The most common reasons that dozens of companies have already transitioned to AccuRev from ClearCase are:
· The ability of AccuRev to support mixed Agile and non-Agile development environments out-of-the-box, and with greater flexibility;
· Better performance for geographically distributed development teams, especially over the WAN, with significant cost savings over ClearCase MultiSite® replication;
· A significant increase in developer productivity combined with near zero administration costs; and
· The ability to more efficiently manage componentized development for project sharing between teams using multiple platforms.
Lorne Cooper, CEO, AccuRev, said, “We expect this will be a compelling offer to customers on maintenance with ClearCase who are looking to reduce their costs and improve their productivity. AccuRev has proven productivity improvements, and with a compelling cost justification, this is the time for managers to take the upgrade plan to their purchasing decision maker. Because our business model allows us to be profitable at this revenue rate, we can provide a better product today, and share in our customers’ growth in the future.”
