Case Study: Amdocs accelerates global software development with Perforce Helix Core

Amdocs cuts version control migration to 1 day with Perforce Helix Core

Amdocs, a global provider of software and services for communications companies, faced challenges with its legacy IBM Rational ClearCase version control system, which hindered the productivity of its distributed development teams. To improve coordination and support for its large, worldwide workforce, the company sought a more nimble solution and turned to vendor Perforce, implementing its Helix Core product.

The solution involved a strategic migration from ClearCase to Perforce Helix Core that was completed in five months, with active development halted for only one day. This move resulted in significant improvements for Amdocs. Developer productivity soared, with complex merge tasks that previously took days now completed in hours. Perforce also delivered substantial cost savings through a more efficient licensing model and reduced administrative overhead, allowing a part-time administrator to manage over 1,000 licenses. The company also praised Perforce's exceptional technical support for its rapid response times.
