At SmartBear Software, we are wholly focused on putting users and teams first, providing software developers, quality assurance engineers and IT professionals with powerful, affordable, and easy to use tools that are easy to try, buy and deploy. At the end of the day, we want to make you more productive and help you to develop better software.

Our code review, automated testing, performance profiling, development management and web and mobile performance monitoring tools have helped more than 100,000 professionals build, test and monitor some of the best software applications and websites in more than 90 countries across the world. Our tools help make sure smart phones don’t do dumb things, pacemakers keep pace, and services serve.

Our goal is to help you better communicate and collaborate within your own teams and across departments, no matter where you work, or on what platform. We want to help you automate mundane and error-prone manual tasks, easily track and report on the success of your software development and testing efforts, and build the highest quality, best performing software you can possibly create. We like to think that our tools help you work with a smile on your face, as they take care of annoying tiresome details so that you can focus on the creative and innovative work you need to do.

Our products work well in small-company environments and easily scale for enterprise use. Our tools work well together across development, QA processes and IT operations, encouraging broader participation amongst all users in the software quality lifecycle. The result: better software quality and improved team collaboration.

Our tools are feature-rich, yet simple to use. They solve immediate individual and team needs, yet scale comfortably to enterprise deployments. And our tools tend to cost a fraction of our competitors’ prices. That’s just a few of the reasons why we think our tools are “smart.”

Once upon a time, you wrote software for a client PC or for a remote server. Nowadays, your applications have to run equally well inside the company firewall, in a private or public cloud, and on smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices. Now, with our SmartBear Quality Anywhere Platform™, we’ve established a platform needed by the new generation of systems, applications, and websites anywhere – on the desktop, mobile, and in the cloud.

• Our Development Tools help you create high quality code by identifying defects and performance issues before QA or customers do. This lowers QA cost, reduces the amount of rework, and produces high quality software in a shorter period of time. The peer code review tool, CodeCollaborator, sets the standard for effective and collaborative peer review.
• Our QA Tools increase testing accuracy and coverage through automated testing that reduces testing time and cost, and simplifies the overall testing process. Jolt Award-winning TestComplete has been on the forefront of best-in-class test automation at an affordable price. And the new addition to the SmartBear platform, load testing tool LoadComplete, is primed to follow.
• Our Web Performance Monitoring Tools ensure the availability and performance of your Web and mobile applications. Our Web performance monitoring tool, AlertSite, helps keep thousands of websites and applications up and running. It identifies potential issues and lets you know immediately, avoiding costly slowdowns, downtime, or time spent in your manager’s office explaining why the system stopped working correctly.
• Our Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) Tools help development teams collaborate more effectively, manage quality, and monitor project progress. Using our ALM and test management tools, ALMComplete, DevComplete, and QAComplete, users across development, testing, and operations teams improve collaboration, efficiency, and visibility.
