In order to keep pace with the changing market needs and evolving technologies ISVs and Technology Product companies sometimes have the need of adding many new features to existing version of product in short time.

Appulse provides Product Enhancement service for adding new features, improving existing features, adding more components to add a specific group of functionality to an existing product. We work with the existing R&D team in different stages of product development lifecycle.

ISVs and Product companies with product in market and enhancements requests coming in from key clients, new enterprise sales, feature requests from marketing and Product Management can face challenges in allocating resources, prioritizing the addition of features and containing the cost of development. Many companies which chose customer centric product development face issues in implementing new features when the client is not there yet but the features need to be added to make the sale. Appulse’s Product enhancement service helps them reduce the cost of these features, for which the sales is yet to be made.

In other situations when Product Enhancement service adds value for mature product companies:

A group of features which are not core but need to be added as a module or component to enhance the feature set to position the product differently.

Product integrates with different systems in the deployment environment and configurable standard integration adaptors need to be developed to seamlessly integrate and reduce the custom development time with each rollout.

New hardware needs to be supported for the product, which can be proprietary hardware or new market release of a hardware which is already supported in the product like new printers, communication hardware etc or a change in device interface due to change in communication protocol of the device.

Appulse’s architects and business analysts get involved from the beginning to understand the existing product architecture and take up some specific feature group to enhance in the product with the ISV’s architect and CTO for first release. Subsequently the engineering team is setup to address the future feature enhancements end to end by Appulse.
