Take a Virtual Tour of Our Software Product Labs
Posted on Tue, May 25, 2010
Editor's Note: If you'd like to go right ahead and take the virtual tour of our Software Product Labs, be our guest. If you'd like first to be swayed by our thoughts on trust, partnership, and the collaborative experience in global software development, please proceed.
When you entrust your development work to an external team, regardless of where they sit, the experience of working together is almost more important than how well they write code.
Don't get me wrong, technical performance matters. The end product needs to reflect the qualities people associate with your brand, just as it must meet the internal standards you have set for the work you do. That's a given.
However, when you are choosing a partner, especially one with whom you will need to work closely over a period of years, your selection will be guided by more than whether or not "they can do it."
As odd as it may sound in a business context your selection of a global development partner - and you have many from which to choose - will be guided by feelings. How does it feel to work with this organization? Is the experience imbued with a true spirit of collaboration? Is it marked by ease of communication and mutual understanding? Is there a shared sense of commitment? And most importantly, all along the way, do you feel that you are both invested in the success of the partnership itself?
Unfortunately, trying to describe "The Experience,” even in words that are aspirational and inspiring, inevitably falls flat. No matter how eloquent, our phrases will certainly echo and be echoed by those of our competitors. We all promise a positive, collaborative, and rewarding experience, but how can you know what it's like until you've actually experienced it?
One way of course is to ask current clients - people who are having or have had "the experience" - but generally that step is reserved for much further down the sales process. So, if you are curious, but not quite ready for that step, Ness Software Product Labs team created a virtual tour
of the lab environment so that you could, at least virtually, get the basic feeling of what we're about.
The quick tour takes you through some of the elements of what it’s like working with Ness, introduces you to some of our people, includes a few client stories, and gives you a chance to "meet" our COO, Raja Nagarajan. Take a look, let us know what you think.
Of course, if you'd just like to speak with us or our current clients, we'd be happy to arrange that as well!
