- 1. Borland
- 2. What? “Borland enables organizations to deliver better software faster.” How? By focusing on predictability and productivity across the application lifecycle, Borland takes a collaborative approach to ALM. This ensures that complex portfolios are efficient, adaptable, stable, and aligned with business. Result? The Borland Difference Developers • Work together • Know why they are building • Informed of changes QA/Test • Work in parallel • Instant knowledge • Cut inefficiencies Management/Customers • Predictably informed • Now have options based on real time data
- 3. Disconnected Development Environment Lack of visibility Unpredictable Not seen by the right teams ? Delays in customer product notifications ? Misinformed management “GA is when? Why?” ? Slipped release date ! SPEC SPEC CODE CODE PRODUCT PRODUCT
- 4. Connected Development Environment Requirements management Eliminates guessing All teams on the same page Connected Development Environment
- 5. Connected Development Environment Proactive change notification Global teams collaborating
- 6. Functional & performance testing Single point of truth Analysis & management visibility Connected Development Environment

Borland Differentiators Borland The Other Guys Less infrastructure More infrastructure Smaller teams collaborating seamlessly Smaller teams working on their own Open & agnostic Migration of technology vendors Strong requirements = strong product Less focus on requirements Predictable management data Brute force unknowns Customer Choice •Methodology agnostic •Platform choice •Open Standards SDLC Coverage •Comprehensive Capabilities •Synergistic benefits •Best-of-breed Supports Innovation •Modernisation Alternatives •Enabling Agile •Service Offerings
- 9. Micro Focus positioned as Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Integrated Software Quality Suites 9 “Testing software can be an expensive process, but poor software quality leads to user dissatisfaction, as well as increased development and maintenance. Therefore, having a well-defined set of tools and practices to drive software quality will positively affect the overall business bottom line.” Gartner, Magic Quadrant for Integrated Quality Suites, January 31, 2011 This Magic Quadrant graphic was published by Gartner, Inc. as part of a larger research note and should be evaluated in the context of the entire report. The Gartner report is available upon request from Micro Focus.
