Executive Summary

The challenges IT organizations are facing today in maintaining a complex and dynamically changing IT infrastructure can no longer be supported by manual change control solutions.

A previously fragmented market has shaped itself into a very sizable space with clear leaders but still has plenty of room to grow.
