Aternity® Named as Finalist in 4th Annual 2012 Golden Bridge Awards

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aternity Inc., the industry’s leader in end user experience management solutions for Fortune 1000 enterprises, announced today that it has been recognized as a finalist in the Annual 2012 Golden Bridge Awards for its creativity around its corporate Facebook page found here: www.facebook.com/aternityinc, which was launched on January 4^th, 2010. So far, in 2012, Aternity has been recognized with a total of nine awards for excellence around product innovation, sales growth, and corporate culture – the full list can be viewed here: http://www.aternity.com/news-awards.htm.

“We are pleased to have our employee profiles at the cornerstone of the Golden Bridge Award recognition”

One of the key creative components of Aternity’s Facebook page is how it showcases its employees – the company’s most valuable asset. Aternity’s page features an “Employee Spotlight” series – an in-depth Q&A featuring Aternity employees, which is offered exclusively to fans of their Facebook page. These spotlights highlight the different backgrounds, passions, and talent that unite Aternity’s workforce and drive its global success. This is one of the initiatives that prompted the Boston Business Journal to name Aternity a “2011 Best Place to Work” and “2012 Best Places to Work” winner.

Aternity was one of the first companies in the Application Performance Management (APM) industry to create and launch a Facebook page, as the social media channel had primarily been viewed as more relevant for business-to-consumer (B2C) audiences versus those selling business-to-business (B2B). For the past two years, Aternity has built its Facebook page into an interactive community, attracting support from partners, customers, prospects, employees, prospective employees, and industry influencers. Aternity engages with its fans regularly through videos, photos, and industry articles, and gives its fans an inside look at Aternity’s culture. Fans continue to “like” and interact with the Aternity page to learn about educational webinars and industry events, career openings, news announcements, and more.

Golden Bridge Awards are an annual industry and peers recognition program honoring Best Companies of all types and sizes in North America, Europe, Middle-East, Africa, Asia-Pacific, and Latin-America, Best Products, Innovations, Management and Teams, Women in Business and the Professions, and PR and Marketing Campaigns from all over the world.

“We are pleased to have our employee profiles at the cornerstone of the Golden Bridge Award recognition,” said Trevor Matz, President and CEO of Aternity. “We have a winning team with a culture that is fueled by a passion for excellence, and this is what makes Aternity a unique place to work.”

Golden Bridge Award Winners will be honored in San Francisco on Tuesday, October 2, 2012 during the 4th annual awards dinner and presentations. Learn more about the awards here: http://www.goldenbridgeawards.com/.
