Case Study: OpenSpan achieves a 30% reduction in code defects and CWE Top 25 compliance with Rogue Wave Software (Klocwork)

OpenSpan - Customer Case Study

OpenSpan, a software manufacturer focused on user process automation and desktop analytics, needed to streamline processes without major change, address risk and compliance, and deliver healthier code across desktop and cloud components. To reduce defects early and improve code quality, OpenSpan turned to Rogue Wave Software’s Klocwork static code analysis as part of its development workflow.

Rogue Wave Software’s Klocwork was deployed at developers’ desktops to catch issues before check-in, reinforce good coding practices, and produce compliance-ready reports for customers’ security teams. As a result, OpenSpan reduced code defects by 30%, achieved CWE Top 25 compliance for faster customer sign-off, and accelerated developer velocity—enabling quicker releases and fewer support costs.
