Can't believe that AppSense AM isn't in there as one of the test subjects. I think the issue is that most people use them for the Environment Manager (EM) feature of the suite so AppSense are treated more as a competitor in the UEM (User Environment Management) market rather than against other applications that do whitelisting, but the whitelisting product is (IMHO) their strongest. If they were willing to run the rule over AppLocker for that survey, then AM should surely have been included - most people who work with Application Manager brand it as "AppLocker on steroids", which is slightly unfair seeing though it can do a lot more feature-wise.
