"Symbio's IBM heritage really shows in their software expertise. They develop software at an incredible speed. Symbio has always exceeded our expectations."
Eric Chao, IBM
Software begins with an idea. Product realization brings the idea to the product prototype stage, then all the way up to a shipping product. Even after the product ships, it must continuously evolve to stay competitive in a challenging marketplace.
With its years of experience as a software foundry providing outsourced product development services, Symbio has extensive experience and domain knowledge in designing, developing and maintaining software releases and mission-critical ASP solutions across multiple technology and industry sectors.
The product realization stage closely follows on the questions asked during the product innovation stage, turning those answers into a working prototype which the customer can then use for evaluation and testing. During the product realization stage, some questions will be answered, while new questions will arise. Basic business assumptions will be challenged; others will be reinforced.
In today's rapid development environment and quickly changing marketplace, software companies need a partner which can quickly adapt to changes. Instead of shipping major releases, there are more iterations of a software platform, especially for hosted solutions. This means that the product realization stage never ends; it is instead a constant evolving process.
After project planning and design, product realization is building what was conceptualized in the planning phase. In order to successfully realize the vision, you must have all the pieces in place.
Methodology
Symbio has adapted an Rational Unified Process (RUP) + Agile Process to develop a global distributed development methodology. This methodology will allow us to work with our clients to decide:
Technologies
Domain Knowledge
Symbio understands the specific knowledge needed by the specific domains.
Application Type Expertise
We have experience building the following type of applications:
Building the Right Team
We have a people framework to build, train and keep the right people. This is the foundation to develop and retain the knowledge needed to create a successful engineering team.
It's not enough just to launch an application; the application must be easily accessed across different devices, especially if it is a web-based application.
When undergoing globalization, some software - particularly data-intensive applications - may require additional components or features to fully support local requirements. We offer add-on product development services to help ensure that applications function properly in their target markets.
Some of the services Symbio offers are:
To provide end users with solutions across multiple platforms, software companies put much time and effort into migrating and porting their products. This endeavor can require a huge investment in resources and can cause major challenges in product support.
Symbio helps software companies successfully overcome these challenges so that they can focus entirely on core product development rather than cross-platform compatibility. Our migration and porting services provide product transformation from source to target-while optimizing code performance for equal or enhanced performance. Symbio extends the value of your existing software by adapting applications for new platforms, locales, or technologies. Our teams work closely with you to find the optimal way to reengineer your application to meet new requirements.
Our services include:
Symbio can manage the continued development and maintenance of your applications, enabling you to concentrate on your core business. Working with your analysts and end users, our teams can help you to define and prioritize enhancements, and then implement extensions and changes to your system.
