MALMO, Sweden and IRVINE, Calif., Aug. 9, 2005 -- Telelogic (Stockholm Exchange: TLOG), the leading global provider of software solutions that align advanced systems and software development with business objectives, today announced that its Application Lifecycle Management tools were noted for their sophisticated capabilities and performance in an Application Lifecycle Management Technology Audit written by Butler Group in June 2005. Butler Group is the premier European provider of Information Technology research, analysis and advice.
The Technology Audit noted that "the company's new Telelogic Lifecycle Solutions suite now addresses a much wider part of the Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) spectrum, and the company is becoming a serious player in the market."
Analyst Teresa Jones also recognized Telelogic's successful acquisitions of Focal Point and Popkin Software's System Architect as a key strategy in extending its ALM solutions "beyond systems and software development to link these activities more closely with business objectives and customer needs."
Other key advantages of Telelogic ALM tools as highlighted in the Technology Audit include:
-- "Good internal and external integration, helping to define ALM." -- "Strong requirements based development focus." -- "Existing data models can be reverse engineered." -- "Innovative and flexible approach to licensing."
Jones concluded the report with a statement of confidence in Telelogic's growth strategy and the future of the company's ALM solutions:
"Telelogic has ambitious growth targets, and its recent acquisitions have been a core element of its new strategy. The company now offers sophisticated ALM capability, and Butler Group believes that it has made significant progress in helping to shape what ALM should include in order for organisations to develop the right applications in the right way."
"This extremely positive review by the respected Butler Group comes on the heels of recent analyst praise from Computer Business Review and IDC," said Anders Lidbeck, president and CEO of Telelogic. "Telelogic is pleased to be recognized for the strength of its ALM solutions and we see the Butler Group's findings as confirmation of our efforts to meet customer needs with best-in-class, integrated tools."
