What IT Analysts say about ALM…

• “ALM doesn’t support specific life-cycle activities; rather, it keeps them all in sync”

• “An ALM solution is the integration of life-cycle tools, not merely a collection thereof“

• “ALM is a discipline, as well as a product category. The three pillars of ALM — traceability, process automation, and reporting and analytics — corresponds to a manual process that can be made more efficient and effective through tool integration”

• Three pilars of ALM

Polarion® - Tomorrow's ALM Platform Today

• We recommend that clients seeking to exploit open source for full SCCM functionality use companies such as Polarion Software for support and extensions, rather than create proprietary extensions

Polarion’s Key Differentiators

• No integrations - Built from the ground up as unified, single-source repository-based, web centric platform

• Painless user experience - Reduces cost of ownership, gets teams up and running fast, and keeps all stakeholders (including customers & suppliers) focused on their main roles rather than the ALM system

• “Live ALM” technology - Takes the guesswork out of managing the application lifecycle

• Unique architecture - Built on Eclipse, with open API and XML support to allow easy integration and adoption in different enterprises
