Pros

Throughout the company, Customer Satisfaction is the key driver and with the latest Net Promoter Score of 81 being a leading indicator that we are building a disruptive next generation of Business Software that solves complex problems for Applications in production within minutes. 15 Minutes to Value, Scalability and SAAS, On Prem or a hybrid way to consume the solution all make AD unique.

Cons

Not enough of the Market knows about us...YET! That is changing very quickly as word spreads that there is a new solution that solves complex problems for Applications in Production yet is easy to use, proven through a Freemium approach that allows Customers to try the solution before making their first purchase. The "Consumerization" of Business Software is the next wave that will cause IT to enable their business as they take advantage of the Cloud, Agile Development, SOA, Web 2.0 and the power of Big Data. SW that works out of the box so that problems in Production can be found in minutes versus days and weeks without heavy consulting, Product reconfiguration or overhead will soon become the norm.
