What Analysts are Saying:
"Aldon offers strong ALM portfolios and has a significant market presence. Aldon is fast on the way to overall market leadership and will heat up the ALM space. Aldon has a significant market impact owing to an exhibition of strong revenue growth and top-of-the-class R&D reinvestments."

"Aldon’s metadata repository, emerging business process and workflow positions the company for support of change management within SOA development environments, which IDC expects Aldon to target increasingly during 2007/2008 and over the forecast period."
- IDC, Melinda Ballou, Program Director Application Life-Cycle Management
“Providing support for such geographically-disparate and technology-demanding environments
will stretch the abilities of many traditional project management tools and indeed quite a few current ALM products. Aldon’s answer involves providing new generation ALM services that are capable of managing the seamless delivery of traditional code-based developments, alongside services-driven application assemblies, irrespective of geography or technology complexities.”
