Opsware (NASDAQ:OPSW)
Historical Stock Chart
From Jun 2019 to Jun 2024
Opsware Inc. (NASDAQ:OPSW), the leading provider of Data Center
Automation software, today announced that Network World named Opsware a “Top
10 Automation Company to Watch” in its June 25th
issue. This honor comes on the heels of numerous top rankings and awards
for Opsware, including Network Computing’s
Editor’s Choice Award in a comparative review
of process automation products, the ServerWatch Product Excellence Award
for Best Infrastructure Tool, and IDC’s
reports that ranked Opsware as the fastest-growing server provisioning
software vendor and the worldwide market share leader in network change
and configuration management.
Among the 10 companies selected by Network World, Opsware offers the
broadest suite of automation software products placing it furthest ahead
in its ability to “take operational
efficiencies to the next level” based on
Opsware’s end-to-end automation capabilities
coupled with its newly acquired orchestration and process automation
engine (Process Automation System, formerly iConclude). Industry
watchers corroborate Opsware’s lead and
status as an automation powerhouse, with Forrester Senior Analyst Evelyn
Hubbert stating, “Opsware can leverage
iConclude’s integration into the big four
management products to deliver more agnostic automation across
heterogeneous environments.”
Denise Dubie, senior editor at Network World, states that “Breakthroughs
in run-book, IT process and data center automation products show that
the technology when coupled with orchestration engines, best-practice
processes and business workflows can cut costs, reduce manual labor and
improve operational efficiency.” Network
World differentiates Opsware from others on the list, pointing to the
company’s recent acquisition of iConclude, a
provider of process automation software that will equip Opsware to
provide IT automation and integrated change management across network,
server and storage environments.
Opsware’s combination of automation
technologies delivers the industry’s most
comprehensive suite of Data Center Automation software that enables
companies to achieve an unprecedented return on investment. This
prestigious list recognizes Opsware for its complete suite of Data
Center Automation software including Opsware’s
Server Automation System, Network Automation System, Process Automation
System, Visual Application Manager, Asset Management System, Operational
Management Database (OMDB), and later this year the Application Storage
Automation System.
“Recognition as a Top Company to Watch by one
of today’s leading technology publications
validates Opsware’s continuing industry
leadership and ground-breaking approach to delivering a zero-latency
data center,” said Tim Howes, CTO and EVP of
research and development at Opsware Inc. “Hundreds
of customers worldwide are reaching unprecedented levels of ROI across
their entire data center infrastructure based on the depth of our

aggressively raise the bar on automation technology by setting the
