Why Concrete for DevX: Thriving in Software-Defined Everything
SDX
Part of the software-defined revolution for 30+ years, with leading organizations like Intel, Google, Microsoft, JLR, Nike, Amazon, and the Linux Foundation
Proven
Our approach boosts developer engagement and success. For example: improving developer success task rate from 90% failure to 90% success
Expert
We have thousands of hours of experience interviewing and observing software developers. We speak software development, but we speak human, too
Global
Specialized research requires specialized users. We’ve built a global network to reach niche subject matter experts and hard-to-find developer audiences wherever they are
The new automotive frontier: Software-defined vehicles
Scaling SDX impact
An SDK (software development kit) broadens who can work with your technology efficiently. It boosts SDV projects, improving productivity, quality, and coding standards. At Concrete, we've designed and improved SDKs for various domains, from machine learning to IoT
Long-term Strategy
Quantitative and Qualitative Data
Best Practices and Lessons Learned
The human X-factor
The issue isn’t developers; it’s their tools and environment. Improving developer experience needs specialists in psychology and communication, not just coding. Like UX for customers, DevX focuses on the human factors in software development
Key Insights
Stakeholder Involvement
Challenges and Obstacles
Feedback and Revisions
DevX transformation
Software development is the new factory floor. To speed it up, you must optimize the developer experience, not just add people or AI. Small investments in this area deliver immediate results—faster ramp-up, shorter cycles, and fewer mistakes
Elevate your development experience
