From Troux Blog
EA tools can no longer just analyze. As industry analyst Gartner Inc. points out, “EA tools must bring business value by integrating, analyzing and communicating structured and unstructured information about a wide range of aspects of the organization.”
That’s why we’re so proud to hear that, once again, Troux has been named a leader in Gartner’s prestigious Enterprise Architecture Tools Magic Quadrant. This closely-watched and much quoted report is based on Gartner’s rigorous evaluation of each vendor around two primary axes: completeness of vision and ability to execute.
In its report, Gartner pointed out that in today’s economic environment EA tools (and those who use them) must:
- Present analyses, recommendations and scenarios to multiple stakeholders who require different levels of detail and context-setting.
- Support their analyses and recommendations with increasingly sophisticated forms of decision analysis, and
- Run a test a range of possible scenarios that describe alternative investment plans.
Being positioned in the leader’s quadrant “reflects our unmatched expertise in applying the discipline of EA to real world business issues with a focus on driving results,” said Will Scott, chief marketing officer of Troux Technologies. “Our customers, who represent a who’s who of the Fortune 2000, continue to turn to Troux to help them make better decisions about their transformation initiatives such as business and IT alignment, cloud transformation, data centre consolidation, and IT portfolio analysis and optimization.”
This honor is especially sweet coming on the heels of our April 2011 recognition by Forrester Research as a ‘Top Current Offering’ in a comparative evaluation, “The Forrester Wave™: Enterprise Architecture Management Suites, Q2 2011.”
In yet another recent recognition, in September 2011 two of our customers were among the winners of the 2011 InfoWorld Enterprise Architecture Awards. They are Bayer HealthCare (BHC), a global leader in specialty pharmaceuticals and consumer health, and United Services Automobile Association (USAA), leading provider of a full range of financial services including banking, insurance, retirement planning, investment services, and financial advice for members of the U.S. military and their families. The awards recognize companies whose EA practice has delivered substantial business benefit to their organizations.
At Troux we work hard to not only provide the deepest EA functionality in the industry, but the methodologies and services our customers need to drive business value.
On that note, we also invite you, our customers, to join us for our 2012 Troux Worldwide User Conference which will be held March 28 and 29 in Austin, Texas. Early registration is now opened.
Thanks again to all of our customers, without whom this would not have been possible.
