Webcast to Detail Best Practices to Deliver Quality Mobile Web and Application Experiences to Smartphone and Tablet Users

DETROIT, Oct. 26, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Compuware Corporation (Nasdaq:CPWR), the technology performance company, today announced a live webcast featuring Forrester Research, Inc. that will highlight best practices to help organizations deliver quality mobile web and application experiences to smartphone and tablet users.

Title:"The State Of Mobile Commerce — Are You Meeting Your Mobile Customers' Expectations?"
When: Wednesday, November 2, 2011
Time: 1 p.m. Eastern time
Presenters: Sucharita Mulpuru, Vice President, Principal Analyst, Forrester Research; Steve Tack, CTO, Compuware APM
Why:






According to Forrester Research, mobile commerce is booming: sales via mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets, will grow 40 percent per year for the next five years, capturing $31 billion by 2016[i]. With mobile, organizations' websites and applications are literally in their customers' hands. But are businesses meeting their expectations? According to Compuware research, 75 percent of the top US retailers are not meeting mobile end-users' web performance expectations.
  
 Speed and availability are key requirements of the mobile channel. Customers on tablets and smartphones expect quick transactions that work flawlessly anytime, anywhere. Failure to identify and resolve a slow — or worse, malfunctioning — mobile site or application will result in lost revenue, rising operational costs and irreparable brand damage.

 
What:

During this free webcast, attendees will learn:
 
  • The current state of mobile commerce and key mobile trends;
 
  • Why tablet owners are a key component of mobile success;
 
  • Common mistakes that prohibit companies from capitalizing on the mobile opportunity; and
 
  • Best practices to deliver quality mobile web and application experiences to smartphone and tablet users.
