What a remarkable journey it’s been so far. It’s a fast-moving world where, as they say, change is the only constant. Regardless of how they came to be part of the Micro Focus family, all our people and technologies have seen, driven, and lived four decades of change. While on paper our company is about providing innovative technology solutions, it’s actually about people.

1. Micro Focus
at a Glance
Innovation in action

3. Micro Focus is a global software company with thousands of customers in
dozens in countries. We’ve been in business for more than 40 years. None of
this makes us unique– apart from maybe the longevity. No. Two things set us
apart from our competitors. The first is our core principle. The second is the
innovation we bring to our enterprise customers.
We don’t buy in to the industry obsession that new is better, or that our
customers must undertake risky and expensive IT change projects, or
portfolio restructures, to achieve their innovation goals.
Micro Focus sees value in the decades-old IT infrastructures, business
processes, IP, and data our customers already have. Our expertise, and our
unique selling point, is in realizing new value - and extending the lifespan -
of these investments through targeted innovation.
Our core principle, then, is to bridge the old with the new. To create enabling
technologies that link the cutting edge, with the tried and tested. This is what
distinguishes us from a crowded, confusing and largely generic marketplace.
We have captured this ethos in our Vision and Promise statements.
About Micro Focus ——
Our Vision
Micro Focus believes businesses don’t

Our promise to customers is that they
will be in the best position to navigate
the challenges of business and IT change.
From mainframe to mobile, from the

them to embrace new business models,
seize market opportunities and derive
competitive advantage.

6. The Portfolios
Software delivery and testing
Competing in a global marketplace requires innovative
software that meets customer expectations at any time,
anywhere and, increasingly, on any device. Software
delivery teams need greater agility to adapt more
rapidly to the volume and velocity of evolving business
requirements. Our Software Delivery and Testing
solutions improve communication and collaboration
between business, test, and development teams for
continuous delivery of a superior user journey.
COBOL development and
mainframe solutions
Need to improve IT agility and efficiency at enterprise
scale? Our COBOL solutions give well-established
business applications new life and increased flexibility,
while enabling customers to easily move core business
workloads to new strategic platforms, including the
Java Virtual Machine (JVM), .NET or even the Cloud.
Re-use your core business logic and data alongside
Agile and DevOps practices to streamline application
delivery across any platform. Our modern mainframe
solution delivers on this promise by enabling teams
to respond faster to business change while
modernizing IBM z Systems applications and services.
Underpinned by the enterprise suite and Changeman
ZMF, this powerful combination delivers a agile
approach to mainframe application delivery and
DevOps at enterprise scale.
Collaboration, file, and networking
Our CORBA portfolio includes the preferred enterprise
solution of more than 600 enterprise customers, and
75% of the world’s financial institutions. Help your
IT team improve file and print service management
and administration, while enhancing user productivity.
Enable direct access to home and shared network
folders and personal files, from any device, anywhere.
Need to connect Macs to an enterprise network?
We can bridge that gap, too. Or ask us about our
complete collaboration software solution – Email,
calendar and task management, instant messaging,
contact and document management functions –
everything in one secure and reliable solution.
IT Operations management
Service outages, poor application performance,
system failures, user complaints and unproductive
users are not the hallmark of a successful, modern
IT organization. So our IT Operations Management
(ITOM) products integrate service, application,
and systems management to deliver sustainable
and reliable IT. They enable organizations to
automate workload migration and disaster recovery,
to effortlessly consolidate and move datacenter
workloads with little downtime, while delivering
robust workload recovery. Our ITOM customers
can manage a constantly shifting list of devices,
applications, licenses and software patches for
a fluid workforce. If achieving effective provisioning,
maintaining, tracking, protecting and device
retirement is a key business challenge, then
we may well have the solution.
Identity, access and security
Organizations need to transition their identity
management approach to use an identity-centric
approach to provide enterprise-scale secure access
to information, while protecting the confidentiality,
integrity, and availability of business-critical systems
and data. The breadth of our Identity solutions, and
our deep expertise in security, identity, access,
and governance, enable our customers to innovate,
keep their data secure, and more easily meet the
demands of an effective and cost-aligned security
governance and risk program.
Terminal emulation
One of many modern IT challenges is enabling
access to core business data quickly, reliability
and securely from an increasingly diverse set of
devices. Our solutions enable IT to better manage
secure access to mainframe and host-based
applications from modern technology – across
desktop, web or mobile platforms. Micro Focus
terminal emulation solutions modernize, and secure,
the mainframe and host-access experience for
business users and IT alike.
Linux and open source
A pioneer in open source software, SUSE has
developed a culture of adaptability. We believe
in collaboration and choice, not vendor lock-in.
More than two decades of engineering excellence
and exceptional service enable us to meet
customer needs and deliver the solutions that
create new possibilities. Open source is in our
genes. To us, it means more than shared source
code. It’s a philosophy and approach that informs
everything we do. It’s how we develop software,
how we work with partners and customers, and
how we engage with communities.
Most of all, it’s about keeping our minds open
to new ideas.

7. Innovation
Everything we do is based on
this simple idea:
The fastest way to get results
from new technology is to build
on what you already have.

8. Let’s do this
The world of technology already
moves pretty fast, and the rate of
change accelerates all the time.
The pedal is on the floor. No-one can
predict what is coming next. Today,
you have it all under control. And then
tomorrow arrives. Sound familiar?
The good news is that by applying a
little innovation in the right place, you
can use what you already have to
achieve what you need to do. And we
can help you with that.
The products within our portfolios
share a common philosophy – to unify
current IT with emerging technologies
to realize the potential and unlock the
value of past IT investments.
It’s a pretty comprehensive spread
of tech that aligns with three pillars –
build, operate, and secure.
We consider that most challenges for
the enterprise fit under one of these
headings, so we have developed a
product and solution portofolio that
either enable our customers to build
better business applications, manage
them with the right balance of cost,
risk and speed, or secure business-
critical IT assets from internal and
external threats. See for yourself.
