Forrester – Elevating the developer experience
A recent survey conducted by Forrester Consulting on behalf of VMware reveals that improving the developer experience (DevEx) can significantly impact a company’s business outcomes. The survey involved 651 IT and engineering leaders and line-of-business leaders in large enterprises. They confirmed that good DevEx is essential for delivering quality software faster and improving end-user/customer experience. Over two-thirds of respondents believe that improving DevEx can positively impact business objectives such as customer attraction and retention, customer satisfaction metrics, revenue growth, and profitability. The report recommends that companies invest in reducing friction in team processes and adopt a heightened awareness that investing in developers drives productive and successful business operations.
