BURLINGTON, MA. June 1, 2016 – Alpha Software Corporation, accelerating how developers build and deploy mobile and web business apps, today announced its inclusion in new market reports from leading analyst firm Gartner. In addition to analyst recognition, Alpha Anywhere also premiered on Gartner Peer Insights as the only mobile application development platform to receive a perfect score for its overall user rating from IT professionals.
Gartner's "Market Guide for High-Productivity Rapid Application Development Tools," published May 24, 2016, discusses how new-generation Rapid App Development (RAD) tools have emerged to simplify and speed the development of business applications. Alpha Software is listed in the report as one of these new-generation RAD tools and one that "also fits into the RMAD [Rapid Mobile Application Development] market."
The report advises that:
"Shadow IT as well as citizen and professional developers should consider these tools to create high-performance applications with excellent user experiences."
In fact, the report predicts:
"By 2020, at least 50% of all new IT line-of-business applications will be created with RAD toolsets."
In a separate report entitled, "The Gartner Digital Commerce Vendor Guide, 2016" published on May 25, Gartner analysts list Alpha Software as a mobile app development platform vendor.
