AtTask Recognized as a Leader in Cloud-based Project and Portfolio Management Quadrant 2013

AtTask, the only provider of cloud-based Enterprise Work Managementsolutions today announced that the company has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the “Leaders” quadrant of the Gartner Inc., 2013 Magic Quadrant for Cloud-Based Project and Portfolio Management Services.

“We believe AtTask’s inclusion for the second year in a row in the Gartner ‘Leaders’ quadrant validates that, although we have expanded our offering to include Enterprise Work Management, we are a very relevant player in the IT and PPM sphere,” saidEric Morgan, CEO of AtTask. “We know that enterprise project teams are more complex than ever before, and unlike traditional project management tools, our tool unifies all aspects of enterprise work management into a single, seamless system that tears down silos and eliminates the disconnect across the entire work lifecycle. It’s an honor to be recognized by Gartner as a leader in the space.”

Not only has Gartner placed AtTask in the “Leaders” quadrant for the second year in a row, AtTask was recently listed as a Cool Vendor in the Gartner Inc. report, Cool Vendors in CRM Marketing Applications, 2013[2].

The Gartner report states that, “Leaders share many attributes with technology providers rated as Visionaries and Challengers, but they are also differentiated by comparatively higher ratings in many areas, not just a few, with overwhelming customer references supporting their claims submitted as evidence. Consistency between a provider’s stated strategy and product direction, and its execution (that is, integrity) is important, along with demonstrated vision, enabling the provider to address emerging and often vaguely defined market requirements.”

Gartner evaluates vendors on 15 weighted criteria based on their relative strengths in the market, including: core goods and services; product capabilities, quality, feature sets and skills; product innovation, customer experience, product execution, marketing responsiveness, organizational business model, and financial stability.

Acronis(R) Joins Citrix Ready Worx Verified Partner Program With mobilEcho(R) Integration

Acronis(R) today announced that it has joined the Citrix Ready Worx Verified partner program with the integration of its secure mobile file management software mobilEcho(R) with Citrix MDX technology. Acronis mobilEcho will soon be made available to more than 250,000 existing Citrix enterprise customers and 10,000 Citrix resellers on the Citrix Worx App Gallery to further the accessibility, availability and protection of critical data on enterprise mobile devices.

Citrix MDX technology allows IT to set comprehensive policy-based controls such as data leakage prevention and the ability to remote lock, wipe and encrypt apps and data. Enterprise IT teams can then apply security and access policies to participating Worx applications, including mobilEcho, across any iOS(TM) and Android(TM) device.

“As more personal devices infiltrate enterprise environments, security becomes a top concern as IT strives to ensure critical data is safe from leakage, malware and hackers,” commented Anders Lofgren, director of mobility solutions at Acronis. “The integration of mobilEcho with the Citrix Ready Worx Verified partner program will help IT organizations safely embrace mobile trends in the workplace while improving the security of their mobile strategy overall. This is ultimately what we all hope to achieve, and we’re excited to be teaming up with Citrix with this goal in mind.”

To extend the product as enterprise ready, Acronis used the Citrix Worx SDK to easily embed MDX technology in its mobilEcho app, extending the product as a secure solution to Citrix customers using any Android or iOS based device. Citrix MDX technology allows end users to maintain direct, secure access to the mobilEcho app while enabling IT to enforce the data-security and data-access rights required by their organization. This integration will further help mobility IT managers manage the growing number of mobile apps end users are adopting for productivity and on-demand data access.

“We have recognized a huge opportunity in the mobility space for our customers and the industry, and want to ensure enterprise security concerns are addressed,” said Chris Fleck, VP Mobility Solutions and Alliances. “mobilEcho is a great addition to our Citrix Ready Worx Verified partner program and a perfect example of a secure, easy-to-use application that allows users to enhance their productivity from anywhere on any device.”

mobilEcho enables IT organizations to provide iOS or Android mobile device users with the identical secure and managed access to files and content on enterprise file servers, SharePoint(R) and NAS storage, that they experience from their laptop or desktop. This includes the ability to edit, annotate and collaborate on any documents. Access rights are integrated with Active Directory(R) to ease management and support compliance.

Instructure, Blackboard, Desire2Learn and IMS Global Launch the LTI App Bounty

Instructure, maker of the Canvas learning platform, announced at the IMS Global Conference today that it is partnering with Blackboard, Desire2Learn and IMS Global Learning Consortium to encourage development of new LTI®apps for education.

As part of the “LTI App Bounty,” Instructure is offering a $250 reward for each qualifying LTI app submitted by June 10, plus an additional $1,000 for the best apps selected by an expert panel of judges from Blackboard, Desire2Learn, Remote-Learner, IMS Global, Brown University, The University of Texas at Austin and Hack Education.

“The LTI standard makes integration of educational resources exponentially easier and fuels innovation in education,” said Dr.Rob Abel , chief executive of IMS Global. “We commend Instructure and the industry-leading organizations supporting IMS for working together to grow an open and innovative education ecosystem.”

Launched by IMS Global in 2010, LTI (Learning Tools Interoperability) provides standard APIs and data integrations for developers to create education apps that operate cross-platform. The goal of the LTI App Bounty is to leverage interest in LTI as a way to increase openness and interoperability in edtech.

“Cooperation in education is fundamental to learning, and I believe it’s fundamental to creating a technology ecosystem,” saidBrian Whitmer , co-founder and chief product officer at Instructure. “Unfortunately, old style vendor lock-in has been a drag on the level of innovation and growth of a true edtech ecosystem. But with initiatives like the App Bounty, we’re working to fix that.”

“Desire2Learn has been a contributing member to IMS GLC for almost a decade and has taken a leadership position in the development and proliferation of standards,” said Jeremy Auger , chief technology officer at Desire2Learn. “We are excited to be a part of any effort that furthers the adoption of the LTI standard and increases the availability of integrated learning experiences.”

“I am very excited to be a part of this project and see what kind of apps it produces,” said Chuck Severance , chief Sakai strategist at Blackboard. “Anything we can do to foster innovation and collaboration among edtech users — and each other — is good for the entire education industry. The LTI App Bounty does a good job at encouraging both.”

The LTI App Bounty panel of judges includes:

  • Rob Abel , CEO of IMS Global
  • Hong Chau , Instructional Designer at Brown University
  • Barry Dahl , Community Manager at Desire2Learn
  • Chuck Severance , Chief Sakai Strategist , Blackboard
