Bangalore: Atlanta-based Spectrum Software, Inc, a systems designer and developer of software productivity tools, announced today (May 6, 2004) the availability of SpectrumSCM 2.0.

This latest major product release provides powerful new features unlike any other peer CM solution currently available. SpectrumSCM is a flexible, process based system that can be used to manage the entire project lifecycle.

SpectrumSCM provides comprehensive source configuration management for any 'e-Asset' from origination through delivery, maintenance, and support. SpectrumSCMÒ is the first truly integrated, platform independent, full-featured (Version Control, Issue Tracking, Change Management, Process Management/Control, Workflow, Release Management, Parallel Development) source configuration management system in the market place that provides full CM functionality with one fully integrated SCM system.

Over the last year the SpectrumSCMÒ product has experienced a great amount of interest, worldwide, and is being seen as a very attractive alternative to many of the existing market leading competitors.

"With the addition of new enhanced functionalities on top of the already powerful existing feature set, SpectrumSCM offers corporations, that spend millions of dollars on enterprise CM solutions an attractive alternative and a solid investment.

For small and medium companies many high-end CM tools are cost prohibitive, now SpectrumSCM is proving to be a powerful alternative to get the full functionality of a high-end tool but at the price of a simple version control or issue tracking tool, a value that cannot be matched by any existing CM tool," said Sarathi Srinivasan, President and CEO of Atlanta-based Spectrum Software, Inc.
