Serena Software Named to SD Times 100 for Fifth Consecutive Year

Top Publication for Software Development Managers Says "Serena Had a Stellar Year in the ALM Market"

SAN MATEO, Calif. — June 4, 2007 In its fifth consecutive showing, Serena Software, Inc., the leader in Application Lifecycle Management for distributed and mainframe systems, today announced it has been recognized as a 2007 SD Times 100 award winner in the Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) category.

“As the potent force behind the Application Lifecycle Framework (ALF), Serena had a stellar year in the ALM market,” the publication wrote in a statement about the awards.

Winners were chosen for demonstrating leadership in shaping the software development industry. “We took into account each nominee’s products and services, its reputation among development managers, and the new ideas it brought out. These select individuals and organizations are the ones we’ve identified as helping to move the art of development forward,” said David Rubinstein, editor-in-chief of SD Times.

For 26 years, Serena Software has helped organizations automate and standardize their application development processes across multiple platforms, architectures, methodologies, and locations. Serena solutions provide visibility, automation, and collaboration across the entire application lifecycle so IT executives can make better decisions and manage their application portfolio like a business – from initial project proposal to application retirement.

“SD Times is required reading for anyone interested in software development and we are honored to be recognized as an industry leader by its editorial staff,” said Jeremy Burton, Serena president and CEO. “Serena has taken great strides this year, being the first and only vendor to integrate Project and Portfolio Management with traditional Application Lifecycle Management tools. Application development is no longer a black box. IT management now has full visibility into actual project execution right alongside their project plan.”

The 5th annual SD Times 100 was published in the June 1 issue of BZ Media’s SD Times and recognizes the leaders and innovators of the software development industry. More information about the 2007 SD Times 100 is available at www.sdtimes.com.
