In the report, Hayes Technology Group and its flagship solution, Gold Client Solutions, are recognized as a data solution that provides data management capabilities for enhanced testing and strategic process improvements. Gold Client eliminates the need for full database copies and improves test data quality. Other benefits include reduced time, lowered hardware expenditures, and improved development integrity.

“Aging ERP systems designed in the 1990’s and stabilized in the 2000’s face tremendous pressures from line of business executives to meet today’s fast moving requirements,” said R “Ray” Wang, principal analyst and CEO at Constellation Research Group. “Organizations can expect that these systems will go the way of the mainframe – still running, still relevant, but surrounded by other innovative technologies. As consumer technologies enter the enterprise, leaders should ensure that the solutions meet the 5S’ of enterprise class software: simple, scalable, safe, secure, and sustainable.”

Gold Client is designed to cancel out the need for workarounds in testing environments. It’s built with the agility and flexibility to move configuration, master data, and specified selections of transactional data into development, testing, and training environments. Gold Client’s unique, surgical approach allows IT to quickly select and copy subsets of only relevant data from production or non-production sources to non-production targets. Additionally, data can be transformed during export, allowing secure data to be masked, replaced or scrambled before it reaches the target system.

“Constellation Research’s validation that Gold Client offers enterprise class software that is simple, scalable, safe, secure, and sustainable is definitely a high point for us,” said Matt Hayes, founder and CTO of Hayes Technology Group. “These attributes have always been part of the Gold Client mission.
