VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Tasktop Technologies (www.tasktop.com), creator of Eclipse Mylyn and the leader for Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) integration, today announced that its Tasktop Sync 2.5 provides full support for Rational Team Concert (RTC) 4.0, a major new release of IBM's ALM collaboration platform. With improvements to RTC's build, User Interface and the Web client functionality now available, Tasktop Sync provides deeper data integration and connects RTC to a growing number of tools, such as JIRA, HP Quality Center and Microsoft Team Foundation Server to improve enterprise development productivity and efficiency.

"Tasktop is committed to ensuring our customers receive the latest and greatest versions of our partners' products as they are available, strengthening the Tasktop ecosystem," said Dave West, chief product officer for Tasktop. "IBM's new release of Rational Team Concert has significant enhancements that are important to software development teams using a range of tools and products. Tasktop Sync continues to support both legacy and next-generation IBM Rational products, allowing customers to connect projects that use a variety of IBM Rational technology while supporting a flexible tool stack."

Tasktop solves one of the biggest and fastest-growing challenges facing IT organizations that are implementing enterprise-wide Agile, ALM and cloud development initiatives – the proliferation of the heterogeneous developer tool stack. First, it connects developers through its Tasktop Dev desktop synchronization tool set. Second, it connects cross-functional enterprise teams with Tasktop Sync, its ALM integration platform that uniquely automates the entire application development lifecycle. Together, the tools provide unprecedented integration of tools, data, people and processes that are increasingly important within today's fast-paced and complex enterprise IT organizations. With Tasktop, developers and managers have visibility into ALM work flow, real-time data sharing of cross-function activities and context into actual performance and business value.
