Leading Workforce
Management Company Chooses Wily Technology Application Management
Solution
CyberShift Uses Introscope 5.0® to Increase
Quality and Performance of Complex J2EE Applications
Brisbane, CA - July 21, 2004 - Wily Technology, the leader
in enterprise application management, today announced that
CyberShift, a provider of workforce management software and
services, has implemented the Introscope solution as a part
of its total quality initiatives to help effectively manage
enterprise-class Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE)
applications across the CyberShift Workforce Management Suite.
With Wily, CyberShift can monitor the development of its
workforce software and ensure the health of its customers'
applications for guaranteed system optimization and performance.
A Web-based solution, the CyberShift Workforce Management
Suite offers complex organizations a fast and efficient means
of managing all aspects of employee time and attendance,
helping to improve workforce productivity, effectively manage
and deploy workforce assets and reduce labor costs. As a
part of its ASP operations infrastructure, CyberShift turned
to Wily to ensure application uptime and resiliency, and
to provide a valuable means for diagnosing and detecting
performance bottlenecks in real-time. To this end, Wily built
10 different dashboards for CyberShift's hosted clients,
enabling instant visibility into each organization's suite
of business-critical workforce applications. Introscope makes
it easier for CyberShift to increase application availability
and improve system performance while increasing customer
satisfaction and loyalty.
"CyberShift recognized that effective management of
critical internal applications is key to ensuring business
and customer success," said Vic Nyman, senior vice president
of products and strategy at Wily Technology. "By working
with Wily, CyberShift is driving towards its goals of delivering
high quality products and services, and is now reaching well
beyond what many software firms do by utilizing application
performance management to gain visibility across the application
platform."
Additionally, CyberShift is using Wily's technology to identify
errors and potential performance bottlenecks in the development
process for its workforce management software. Using Wily's
Introscope product as a core component for development and
quality-assurance initiatives, CyberShift is able to identify
problems in the application lifecycle prior to deployment,
increasing efficiency and improving the quality of the final
product. Moreover, Wily has helped CyberShift set performance
baselines to gauge the scalability of its applications in
production. These baselines are used to set thresholds for
Introscope Alerts that will proactively notify CyberShift
of potential issues that can impact the performance of the
CyberShift Workforce Management Suite.
"CyberShift is dedicated to the continuing advancement
and improvement of our products and services, bringing to
market premium workforce management solutions for increased
productivity and financial return," said Michael Estes,
vice president of product development at CyberShift. "Wily
provides the visibility and insight required to make strategic
decisions on how to quickly address application issues to
achieve the highest levels of Java application performance
for our clients and their workforce management needs. We
see them as a key component of our much broader set of quality
initiatives."
