"The adoption of Agile and DevOps is now hitting critical mass in Asia. Development organizations are replacing cumbersome and outdated ALM systems with open platforms that embrace the hybrid use of open source, cloud and commercial tools, along with iterative and more collaborative processes," said David Parker, vice president and general manager of Asia Pacific for CollabNet. "CollabNet's commitment to open source, Agile and highly scalable development platforms has led to strong growth throughout the region and positioned the company as a leader in driving success with Agile and DevOps practices."

Developments within the Asia Pacific region include:

• Rapid Organic Growth: CollabNet is adding customers at a rapid pace and has experienced 120 percent new business growth in the region so far during 2013.
• Agile and DevOps Transformation: organizations have embraced Agile-based practices and are turning to CollabNet for products and services to adopt and scale these initiatives.
• Rapid Adoption of Git: CollabNet helps IT organizations bring Git to the enterprise (as it did with Subversion), with complete management, compliance and security.
• Manufacturing and Embedded Systems Success: CollabNet is meeting the needs of the region's large number of electronics and embedded systems companies that are now adopting Agile processes to better compete in the market.
• Global Systems Integrator Partnerships: CollabNet's Federated ALM and cloud-based platform is being used for internal usage as well as a go-to-market enabler by leading systems integrators with whom CollabNet has entered into strategic partnerships, such as Mahindra Satyam.
• China Software Practices Thought Leader: CollabNet and its partner in China, Emdoor Technology, conducted a four-city seminar series that included Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Guangzhou, outlining trends in the Chinese software development market.
• Indian Agile Thought Leader - CollabNet has been a consistent noted speaker and sponsor of the Agile India conferences.

"The Asia Pacific region has been and will continue to be a strong market for CollabNet as more open and flexible platforms are needed to embrace change, allow freedom of choice and provide the visibility and traceability needed to manage large distributed teams," said Parker.
