ITP-PANORAMA
• PANORAMA provides ongoing up-to-date
documentation and a view of entire applications
allowing analysts to quickly extract and update
embedded business logic and also determine all
dependencies and impact of a pending change
generally in seconds rather than hours or days.

Master your Software with PANORAMA
What would it mean if:
• You could do impact analyses with No risk
of missing any interdependency
• You had a daily updated documentation of
all your applications ?
• Alfter a scan, all dead code, open links, etc
were fully identified?
• You could see the impact of a simple
change in a second and know nothing was
missed?
• You could perform simple searches in a
second and know nothing could be missed?
• You could follow the value chain through all
applications and programs step by step?
Master your Software with PANORAMA
What would it mean if:
• You could be certain that all business processes of
your legacy software would be still supported after a
migration?
• Full training took only four hours – “experts” not
needed.

ITP: An Application Maintenance
Mining System
• Maps all your source code into memory
(passive repository in PC/server)
• You can perform searches and risk free
impact analyses at speeds usually well over
100 times faster than your current
performance
• Unique “Hypercube” in memory
architecture enables these performance
levels
• Risk free because all dependencies
between each and every element of code
are cross checked and mapped.
• You will know your code better than ever
with complete documentation
Master your Software with PANORAMA
ITP: An Application Mining System
• Identifies all bugs, dead code, open
links, etc making cleaning the code
very simple and risk free
• Advanced user interface includes
Data Flow Analysis, Pivot Tables, etc
• Supports most languages and
platforms
• Our users report annual SW
maintenance savings of approx. 30%

Challenges in an IT shop that
ITP-PANORAMA helps to solve
• Complex Legacy applications with tens of
millions of LOC
• Documentation not complete or up to date
• Costs of change requests too high
• Developers have too much knowledge in their
minds
• Loss of knowledge if developers leave or retire
• It is difficult to find experienced developers

Challenges in an IT shop that
ITP-PANORAMA helps to solve
• Long training period before new
developers get productive
• Back-log of change requests
• Time to market too long
• Pressure to reduce cost
• Dependent on outsourcing providers
• “Operational Risk” by losing control of the
software

So, what does PANORAMA mean to you!
 You are getting daily updated technical
documentation of all of your software with all
details
• Scanning the software means:
• Compiling all programs (same checks as
e.g. the IBM compiler does)
• Cross reference checking of all references
across all applications
• No interdependence is missed in the entire
IT system.
• Entries on the error list with references where
the error occurred
Master your Software with PANORAMA
So, what does PANORAMA mean to you?
 After four hours of training your
developers save 90% of analysis time and
see in less than a second the impact of a
change of any selected entity with all
linkages over the entire IT system.
 Graphics make your software transparent
and easy to understand
 With the unique Dataflow Analysis you
can follow the value chain of a variable
through applications and programs
Master your Software with PANORAMA
Transparent Applications
• Searches are:
• Non hierarchical
• Top down and bottom-up
• All analyses/searches are always:
- 100% correct
- 100% comprehensive
- 100% reliable
• What you can not find by mouseclick or wild-card in the repository
does not exist in the scanned code.

Reference: Experiences with ITP-PANORAMA
Juergen,
Gladly I give a short testimonial about our usage of PANORAMA:
• PANORAMA was chosen 2007 after an international evaluating process. In the race were three other vendors.
• PANORAMA did convince us, because:
a) It is meant for developers (while other products seemed more made for managers),
b) It is able to handle our volume of source code,
c) The response-time allows real-time analysis and
d) The price/performance ratio is unique.
• The training of our developers was done in a short period of time because the drill-down in the HyperCube
was a familiar way to limit the regarded volume, which developers are knowing from data base researches.
• I would like to particular emphasize the support we are getting from ITP with immediate response to our
inquiries and patches are mailed in the shortest possible time. We also enjoy the ongoing extension of
PANORAMA’s capabilities.
• The efficiency of PANORAMA in our analysis is very good. Particular because we can trust the results. Some
developers still use normal SEARCH over our libraries. We notice this because these analysis are faulty, what
even I as a development manager can discover.
• In the near future we plan to do missionary work to convince all developers to use PANORAMA.

Offloading Software Analysis from the
host and cleaning code will gain MIPS
for Production and reduce MLC.
Benchmark test at an insurance
company showed that a complex
search on the host took 17
minutes and was charged by the
computer center with $ 49.00
The same analysis on a server
with ITP-PANORAMA took 2 minutes
with costs not worth mentioning

cuts Costs and raises Quality
BMW made a Benchmark Test with and without ITP-PANORAMA.
Two developers had to find all the programs in a total number of 7,500
that had to be changed if a data field was extended by 3 digits.

Thirty Day Proof of Concept
This will tell you a lot more then you ever knew
about your applications:
We come to your site and
• Install ITP-PNORAMA,
• Scan a complex application (10M+ LOC),
• Show all incompatibilities (bugs),
• Train your development team,
• Let your team work with
5 multi-user licenses for 30 days.

US Finance Institution made this
Comment after the Software Check:
“After completing a 30-day trial of ITP-Panorama, we had to
revert back to the old, slower and painful ways of performing
impact analysis.
It was like giving someone a Ferrari for 30-days and then asking
them to settle for a scooter from now on.
I cannot imagine we have ever had so much success with a
trial copy of software.
We’re starting the purchase process right away.”
