Autonomy Named to Software Magazine's 20th Annual Software 500
Software Magazine Ranks Autonomy as one of the World's Leading Software Companies
San Francisco, Calif., August 28, 2002 -- Autonomy Corporation plc (Nasdaq: AUTN; LSE: AU., Nasdaq Europe: AUTN), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise, today announced its inclusion on the Software 500, Software Magazine's list of the world's foremost software and services providers, featured in the publication's Summer Edition 2002 issue. Autonomy is ranked in the content and document management business sector.
"Although IT spending was slow last year, many software product and service suppliers did do well," says John Desmond, Software Magazine's editorial director. "Companies who can deliver rapid return on investment for their customers with focused product offerings had better results. CIOs and senior IT managers can peruse this yearly benchmark to see how their product and service partners fared. That's a valuable service."
"In today's information-driven economy it is crucial for businesses to leverage their intellectual assets," said Mike Lynch Autonomy CEO and founder. "Autonomy provides a scaleable infrastructure that automatically integrates business-critical information as well as employee expertise and allows businesses to operate more efficiently. Our customers recognize the tremendous ROI that Autonomy's technology provides and we are delighted to have the recognition of Software Magazine as well."
The Software 500 is a comprehensive look at the software industry targeting enterprise IT organizations with software and services. The list includes both private and public companies. The Software 500 is a worldwide list in that it is open to any company to submit financial and product information via the annual Software 500 survey, which for the first time this year was conducted 100% on the Web by The Standish Group, a research and analyst firm based in Yarmouthport, Mass.
The ranking is based on total worldwide software and service revenue for 2001. This includes revenues from software licenses, maintenance and support, training, and software-related services and consulting. Suppliers are not ranked on their total corporate revenue, since many have other lines of business, such as hardware. Companies are measured on calendar year revenues whenever possible to compare the same four quarters; fiscal year exceptions are noted. The financial information was gathered by a survey prepared by the Standish Group with King Content Co. and posted at http://www.softwaremag.com/, as well as from public documents. All the charts are based on the survey results.
The Software 500 ranking is first published in print and later posted to http://www.softwaremag.com/.
