Case Study: ACCESS achieves lower costs and better code quality with Perforce Klocwork

Upgrading Static Analysis for IoT Development

ACCESS, a provider of integrated cloud-based solutions for IoT development, needed a more effective static code analysis tool to support its growing mix of languages, devices, and projects. Using Perforce’s Klocwork, ACCESS aimed to improve code quality and security while reducing the rising licensing and operating costs tied to its legacy analysis tool.

Perforce implemented Klocwork across ACCESS’s development teams with a phased migration, tailored workflows, and developer training integrated into source control and CI processes. The result was smoother daily use of static analysis, lower licensing and management costs, and better quality outcomes, including a 20% improvement in the cost of correcting bugs compared with the previous tool.
