Vendor Analysis 2004: Cedara Software Corp.

TekPlus Vendor Analysis is our series of Profiles Reports on the Vendors. The Profiles include our Tek-Outlook, SWOT analysis and a detailed profile of the company.

Cedara Software is emerging from a very serious crisis to outline a major transition towards a brighter future. This year, the company has laid out more solid foundations and shows all signs of life with new dynamics and positive momentum. The new leadership and on-going support from Analogic over the last two years seems to have turned around the company and with small steps taken one by one the company seems to have began the stride forward. TekPlus expects this dynamics to continue and if Cedara delivers similar results in the coming year, TekPlus anticipates changing the Company to +1 Points - A Promising Position!

Note: TekPlus Points state the current opinion of the vendor as viewed by TekPlus. TekPlus experts take a number of parameters into account when analysing a vendor and its position in the competitive landscape going forward. The scale of the points are as follows; +3 : Extremely Solid Position, +2 : Solid Position, +1 : Promising Position, 0 : Weak Position and -1 : Very Weak Position.
