New Bundled Software and Services Bring Confidence, Readiness in Performance Testing

LAS VEGAS and DALLAS (Oct. 22, 2013) - Worksoft®, a leading global provider of business process validation software for complex mission-critical applications, today announced the launch of Certify PerformanceTM, a new flat-fee load and performance testing solution for SAP® environments. The announcement was made at the SAP TechEd Las Vegas conference, being held Oct. 21-25.

Certify Performance is a bundled offering of Worksoft's proven performance testing software and expert consulting services that delivers confidence and readiness in performance testing. It offers comprehensive performance validation along with highly-trained, specialized expertise for test design, execution and performance diagnosis.

"Traditional performance validation solutions involve expensive, specialized tools and staff," said Shoeb Javed, chief technology officer, Worksoft. "Instead, Certify Performance offers customers an outcome-based offering of performance testing software and highly technical expertise, focused specifically on SAP solutions -- all without expensive software procurement or long-term consulting contracts. This is especially important today, as companies look to get the best performance out of fast new technologies like the SAP HANA® platform," he said.

"With Worksoft's combination of technology and services, customers can eliminate the need for large capital investments or developing in-house expertise, all while gaining assurance that they are well-equipped and ready for production. Customers get the results they need, when they need it, at a reasonable cost," he said.

Certify Performance allows users to validate the behavior, capacity and user response time of an application under real-world workload scenarios. Determining the behavior of an application under load and using the results to provision system capacity appropriately is a critical activity before applications go live.

Key features and benefits of the new Worksoft solution include:

• Fast, comprehensive performance validation, reporting on performance readiness or issues, and diagnostic help.
• Technology and services bundled together in three configurations depending on an organization's need. No surprises, no extras, just confidence in price and delivery for performance analysis.
• Results analyzed using metrics captured by the SAP system via its integrated Computing Center Management System (CCMS). Reported information includes infrastructure metrics along with key internal data points from the SAP system landscape such as response time, dialogs, and more.
• Reduced resources required to load test, faster testing capabilities, and the option for more frequent or periodic testing.
• No expensive procurement of software or long-term consulting contracts required.
