Most figures published for programmer productivity
are subject to vendor bias, often based on ad-hoc data
gathering and usually refer to a single project, or
single organisation. This study, however was carried out
independently, to the highest scientific standards, using
a proven and publicly supported methodology on a
significant sample. The results speak for themselves. Developer/2000 alone delivers a highly effective programming environment by comparison with other similar studies. When Designer/2000 and Developer/2000 are integrated, the results are dramatically improved. Designer/2000 sets a benchmark for software development productivity that way beyond industry norms and the way out of reach of many alternative environments. |
