Micro Focus is also buying Borland Software (BORL) for $67 million, placing Micro Focus more powerfully in the applications quality and lifecycle management arena. Compuware has never been a company that moves fast — but for them, and their customers, that's been a good thing. For years, Compuware has been a reliable, steady and practical IT partner for governments, mainframe-oriented IT shops, and large organizations. But this announcement, which Compuware portrays as another step in its " Compuware 2.0 evolution" (read relatively slow-moving corporate transformation process), is expected to allow Compuware to invest resources and energy in what it sees as high-opportunity markets, from application performance and mainframe optimization to IT portfolio management and healthcare collaboration.
