Case Study: Nasdaq improves software quality and reduces time to market with Semmle LGTM

Improving ROI and reducing time to market

Nasdaq Corporate Solutions, part of Nasdaq, needed to increase delivery capacity and improve software quality across a globally distributed engineering organization while managing a complex, growing application portfolio. To address these challenges, the team turned to Semmle and its LGTM product to gain better visibility into code quality, best practices, and development performance across teams and geographies.

By integrating Semmle LGTM into developer workflows, Nasdaq Corporate Solutions was able to scale best practices, improve transparency, and make more data-driven decisions for engineering leadership, budgeting, and partner management. The results included more than a 75% reduction in technical debt in one year, lower software risk, improved developer productivity, and faster time to market, showing a clear ROI from Semmle.
