CA focuses on IT governance
CA is shifting away from offering a large array of products and solutions to a clearer focus on pure process areas, reports eChannel Line.
This year IT governance will be a big focus for CA, says Joanne Moretti, GM of the vendor's Canadian operations.
Warren Shiau, lead analyst for IT research at the Strategic Counsel, says CA's shift to focusing on pure process areas is "a really big change for them, and a really good one. In a nutshell, the switch to a process focus has brought CA through a maturation process that helps them better identify issues that are important to users," Shiau said.
