AccuRev SCM Wins Jolt Product Excellence Award in Software Change and
Configuration Management Category
First Software Configuration Management Vendor to Win Two Jolt
Product Excellence Awards
LEXINGTON, Mass. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) March 28, 2007 --
AccuRev Inc. today announced that Dr. Dobb’s
Journal has chosen AccuRev as the winner of the 17th Annual Jolt Product
Excellence Awards in the Software Change and Configuration
Management category. This is the third Jolt
Award AccuRev has received in the last four years, having won both
the Jolt Product Excellence and Jolt Productivity Awards previously.
AccuRev was awarded top honors by a team of Dr. Dobb’s
editors, columnists and industry experts who felt that AccuRev ‘jolted’
the industry in 2006 with significant new features for managing
geographically distributed, parallel and agile
development environments. AccuRev was selected over seven other
finalists, including Microsoft Team Foundation Server and Perforce SCM,
both runners up.
Supporting geographically distributed and parallel
development with outsourced, offshore or co-located teams is not
easily accomplished with traditional file-based, branch and label SCM
tools. Development processes, resources, methodologies, and
priorities often change during the lifecycle of a software project.
Additionally, many organizations are beginning to adopt more Agile-based
methodologies that will eventually require better defined and more
automated processes. AccuRev allows teams to establish and automate
their desired workflow and release process, and manage it transparently
in real time, from one location across the entire software development
infrastructure.
“Our prestigious Jolt Judges are recognized as
forward-looking gurus, who provide insight into the latest and most
promising industry trends. They define who is ahead of the curve,
honoring products that are universally useful; that are simple, yet rich
in functionality; that redefine their product space; or solve a nagging
problem that has consistently eluded other products. Our judges and
their decisions is one of the major reasons the Jolts are so coveted,”
commented Dr. Dobb’s Awards and Events Manager
Rosalyn Lum.
Lorne Cooper, CEO, AccuRev Inc. added, “This
Jolt Award is an industry acknowledgement of the major advancements made
in our software
configuration management product line in 2006. We look forward to
extending our product leadership, and continuing to replace legacy SCM
tools in the enterprise this year and beyond.”
