Forrester Research has cited Novell as a strong performer in its recent report, The Forrester Wave™: Endpoint Encryption, Q1 2015.
Novell was among the select companies that Forrester invited to participate in its Q1 2015 Forrester Wave report, Endpoint Encryption, in which Novell ZENworks® received its highest marks for customer references and cost.
After primary research, Forrester analysts included Novell in its final list of vendors for the Forrester Wave based on:
- product fit;
