AccuRev Wins Jolt Award for Breakthrough Software Configuration Management System
Software Development Magazine Recognizes AccuRev for Second Consecutive Year

Lexington, MA, March 28, 2005 - For the second year in a row, AccuRev Inc. received a Jolt award from Software Development magazine in recognition of the company's breakthrough software configuration management system. AccuRev 3.5 received a Jolt Productivity Award in the Change and Configuration Management category at SD West Conference & Exposition. The company launched AccuRev 3.7, a new and enhanced version of its breakthrough software configuration management (SCM) system, at SD West earlier this month.

In addition to the launch of AccuRev 3.7, the company also announced a partnership with Aspen Software Consultants, which supports AccuRev's leadership in meeting the needs of large enterprises with distributed development environments. The key new feature of 3.7, the replication server, improves the performance and increases the overall productivity for remote and offshore developers, telecommuters, and local developers.

AccuRev is the only software configuration management system that is based on a stream architecture, which enables development teams to graphically view and control all work in progress throughout the development process. AccuRev provides built-in support for massively parallel development, enabling teams of people to easily add new or multiple releases, special customer releases, patches and custom functionality for many simultaneous development projects.

"This Jolt Award - our second in two years - is not only a testament to the advantages of AccuRev's unique, stream-based architecture; it also speaks to the industry need for a powerful and flexible solution that solves the inherent problems in SCM," said Damon Poole, CTO and founder of AccuRev. "AccuRev is empowering development teams to more efficiently manage the increasing complexities associated with distributed development and succeed in creating quality software."
