Software quality monitoring gains momentum among users of low-code platforms

New York – Amsterdam, December 20, 2018 – Software Improvement Group (SIG), a global technology consultancy firm delivering independent software quality assurance solutions, reports today a significant uptake of 22% in subscriptions to the Mendix Application Quality Monitor (AQM) during the second half of 2018, indicating the increasing demand for proactive software quality management solutions by users of low-code platforms.

Following the strong international growth in usage of the Mendix low-code platform, multiple new customers in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, and Germany have subscribed to the new 2.0 version of the AQM, powered by SIG. Tightly integrated with the Mendix platform, AQM enables Mendix customers to monitor the reliability and maintainability of the business-critical applications they build there.

Koert Hagoort, Product Manager of AQM at Mendix:

“High quality implementations (indicated in AQM with a 4-star rating as a minimum) result e.g. in substantial cost savings on maintaining these applications. We believe that developing a Mendix application first time right is easy and can be validated and monitored going forward in AQM. We are glad to see that many of our new customers also immediately subscribe to AQM and can leverage immediately the quality measurement based on SIG’s models, unique industry benchmark and standards such as the German TÜViT quality institute and ISO25010 standards.”

Michel van Dorp, Global Partner Director at SIG:

“Mendix and SIG announced the general availability of AQM 2.0 just in September, so we are thrilled to see the uptake of AQM licenses internationally. This is also driven in large part by Mendix implementation partners, who embrace SIG’s approach of realizing healthier and safer applications in order to guarantee a high level of customer satisfaction. The new international client subscriptions via Mendix perfectly align with the further international expansion SIG recently made with the opening of our North American headquarters in New York.”
