The number one complaint of any software user is typically latency. The ability of software to process as quickly as the user’s thoughts and keying is crucial to ensure adoption. Users expect answers immediately – whether it is a query, updating a field or moving to another view in the app. Application performance management, monitoring and testing all aid adoption and help build a loyal user base. When APM is paired with properly executed Testing & Quality Assurance and Product Management, you have the opportunity to create a product that will sell itself through fanatical users.
F4 communicates closely with clients through the development process and the QA process to ensure that opportunities to improve performance are leveraged and any performance concerns are addressed before general release of any software product. We validate desired metrics with continuous integration and automation of performance tests to identify any regression or new issues in performance.
