Detroit--January 29, 2013--Compuware Corporation (Nasdaq: CPWR), the technology performance company, today announced a live webcast that will highlight how web load testing can help organizations uncover and eliminate performance landmines.

Title: “Avoid Web Performance Landmines”

When: Thursday, January 31, 2013

Time: 1 p.m. Eastern time

Presenters: Andreas Grabner, Technology Strategist, Compuware APM

Why: There are only a few reasons why websites go down under heavy load. If organizations know upfront what these top performance landmines are, they can avoid them by testing their websites the right way, before they go live.

Performance is a critical business issue. Research has shown that 75 percent of users will go to a competitor if an organization’s web performance is poor. Sites often bog down or fail during peak traffic times, exactly when they need to perform at their best. Testing sites under realistic load is the only way to uncover and eliminate performance landmines before they cost organizations revenue and customers.

What: During this free webcast, attendees will learn:

• how top eCommerce businesses prepared themselves for the holiday season;
• how eCommerce businesses ensured that peak holiday traffic would not take their site down; and
• what the top performance landmines are that typically end up in a production environment and how to avoid them.
