9. Analysts perspective: A Recognized Industry Leader "Telelogic Synergy achieves the highest rating in our ease of use category , while providing very advanced functionality. This makes Synergy an ideal choice for enterprise-wide deployment.“ Clive Burrows, Principal Analyst, Ovum. “ Telelogic addresses CCM thoroughly with its Synergy and Change products, but the real emphasis that Butler Group believes the company now promotes, is the overall change process rather than just the tools. It is this process emphasis that customers will find valuable – although tools must be good and easy-to-use, if they do not have a wider framework to promote their use, they are unlikely to deliver their true value.” - Butler Group analyst Teresa Jones Technology Audit, Synergy 6.5 and Change 4.7, Butler Group, June 2007.
