Altiris technology has been recognized by some of the most respected international companies, including Hewlett-Packard, Dell, IBM, Intel, Microsoft and Cisco.

Altiris has had a successful financial track record even in poor economic conditions, posting eight consecutive years of revenue growth since 1998.
