Deals are indeed flowing for
BMC Software (BMC) and the company now serves a
large chunk of firms with its cloud computing solutions. The new
entrant in this list is Swisscom, which has opted for BMC’s
solutions to curtail service delivery costs. Moreover, BMC’s
offerings will help improve Swisscom’s customer service.
Swisscom will be using BMC Cloud
Lifecycle Management and BMC Cloud Operations Management solutions
to cut costs by 30% and also improve the end-user experience.Along
with the cost effectiveness, the solution promises to offer value
to the customers for IT services.
This deal win comes close on the
heels of other wins from Australian IT service provider
Applaud and France Telecom (FTE).
BMC will help Applaud in improving the quality of its professional
services to Australian organizations and improving the desk
ticketing system.
Again, France Telecom has selected
the BMC ProactiveNet Performance Management solution for efficient
customer services. This solution identifies and prioritizes
real-time problems. The actual work of the solution is to identify
the main reasons for the problems and thereafter inform the
concerned team.
We believe that this particular
product from BMC will find many takers, as it makes life easier for
Swisscom clients. BMC has been enjoying a steady flow of deals and
is also witnessing steady growth in its SaaS-based business. Cloud
bookings have also improved.
On the other hand, significant Fed
budget cuts have had an impact on government funds for IT
administration. This apart, the economic weakness in Europe is also
affecting business volume from that region.
Competition increases in accordance
with the growth in business opportunity. Companies such as
IBM Corp. (IBM), Hewlett-Packard
Company (HPQ), EMC Corp. (EMC) and
CA Technologies (CA) will pose challenge for the
company.
BMC carries a Zacks #3 Rank,
implying a short-term Hold rating. Again, we have a long term
Neutral rating on the stock.
