Webinar: Key Drivers impacting Return on Investment (RoI) for
Static Analysis Tools

Every investment should deliver a tangible return. The decision to purchase static analysis tools is no different. These tools are essential for both development and management to have a good understanding of the costs and benefits. Whilst some of the factors driving the RoI may be relatively easy to identify, others are less obvious. In all cases it is important to recognize the way and the degree, to which these drivers ultimately save money and/or enable the business to generate incremental revenue.
In this webinar we will:
- Identify and explore key factors which have a material impact on your RoI
- Examine the analysis from an opensource project and use this to demonstrate the potential financial impact
