Gartner Names BlueStripe Software as a Cool Vendor

BlueStripe Software’s FactFinder application management solution assists IT companies and their support teams with keeping track of the performance and availability of application transaction systems. With the help of FactFinder, IT administrators can follow transactions wherever they go including tiers, platforms, and various environments such as virtual machines, private clouds, and third-party services.

Recently, the company announced that it was selected as a “Cool Vendor” in the Gartner (News - Alert) “Cool Vendors in Application Performance Monitoring 2012” report for its FactFinder application.

Designed for IT operations teams, FactFinder discovers, maps, and monitors application transaction systems automatically. It does not need any developers to configure or use. Within a single product, FactFinder is the only application management solution, which monitors issues such as transactions, hop-by-hop and process to process.

With the help of FactFinder’s discovery and monitoring abilities, operations support teams can solve major transaction problems. They can also guide teams to watch all segments of critical business transaction systems and help application roll-out teams make sure that all components of a new system are ready and available.

“We consider BlueStripe’s inclusion in the Cool Vendor report by Gartner both an honor and an important confirmation of our break-through transaction monitoring approach,” said Chris Neal, CEO and co-founder of BlueStripe Software. “Our FactFinder product is the first APM (News - Alert) solution built specifically for IT Operations teams, giving them the exact level of visibility needed to automatically monitor the performance of business transactions, application platforms and the infrastructure they depend on.”

Recently, the company announced that FactFinder, BlueStripe’s transaction monitoring solution, will be used by Raymond James Financial to make sure that production applications meet suitable transaction service levels. Raymond James will utilize FactFinder to monitor transaction performance and effectively troubleshoot production problems, apart from certifying new applications before deployment.
