September 17, 2012. NEW YORK and PARIS – Knoa® Software, the leading provider of user experience and performance management software, today announced that it will host a reception with strategic partner SAP AG at the U.S. Embassy in Paris on September 19 to recognize the opening of Knoa’s corporate office in France. Executives from Knoa and SAP AG will share their vision with key customers for the significant benefits that User Experience Management (UEM) solutions can bring to their organizations. Knoa will provide details about the new Paris-based office, which will support Knoa’s customer, sales and service efforts throughout Europe and reflects the growing customer demand for UEM solutions worldwide.
Knoa is a leader in the developing segment of UEM, which provides strong operational improvements and delivers substantial return on investment for customers. The company’s award-winning Knoa Experience and Performance Manager (EPM) goes beyond the performance of networks, hardware and infrastructure – providing a clear view of how users actually interact with the system – screen by screen. It lets IT proactively assess each user’s performance, understand how each user navigates the application, and provides an early indication of user inconsistencies before they reach the support desk or worse, the customer. The solution is resold by SAP as the SAP® User Experience Management (SAP UEM) application by Knoa.
“Knoa has become the de facto standard for end-user experience and performance management in the United States, and counts 20 percent of the Fortune 50 and hundreds of Global 5000 companies as existing customers,” said Thad Eidman, CEO of Knoa Software. “We have an award-winning product platform and an alliance in which we are one of a select few whose products are resold by SAP. The decision to open an office in Paris is a direct result of the interest we are seeing from brands in EMEA that want an unprecedented level of visibility into the actual performance of end users.”
