CA Positioned in the Leaders Quadrant for Application Performance Monitoring
ISLANDIA, N.Y., March 1, 2010 – CA, Inc. (NASDAQ: CA) today announced that it has been positioned in the “Leaders” quadrant in Gartner’s ‘Magic Quadrant for Application Performance Monitoring’ report.* After evaluating 19 qualifying application performance management (APM) providers, Gartner positioned CA in the “Leaders” quadrant.
According to the Gartner report, “Five aspects characterize vendors that appear in the Leaders quadrant: (1) they have competitive offerings related to all five dimensions of APM, and best-of-breed functionality in two or more of the dimensions; (2) they have credibility in the monitoring of a heterogeneous, multivendor application domain; (3) they have the ability to deliver and support APM across five continents; (4) they have a consistent track record of innovation; and (5) they have a vision that places APM at the heart of IT operations and application management.
