CoreFirst allows Morgan Stanley to monitor the performance of its trading transactions in real time and significantly improve service levels for trading clients. With CoreFirst, Morgan Stanley can monitor and improve the performance and service levels of its trading platform, to the benefit of its clients and its own systems management.

"There are technologies available today that provide partial aspects of transaction management, but we have not come across any solution that provides the complete visibility and control that CoreFirst does," said Hishaam Mufti-Bey, Executive Director at Morgan Stanley. "With CoreFirst we are able to know in real time who is using the application and in what ways, how the application is performing and where exactly we need to focus our attention to optimize the performance of our trading platform. This was not possible before deploying CoreFirst."

"Business Transaction Management is proving to be the next wave of IT management for large organizations such as Morgan Stanley," said Israel Mazin, CEO of OpTier. "This product helps organizations gain value out of their new and legacy applications by helping companies to understand how those systems can perform better and with reduced operating costs."
