Experts anticipate JavaScript to be used by more than 60% of the software product development companies by 2020.
Python is second from the top. Then comes the C#, PHP, TypeScript, Ruby on Rails, etc.

Furthermore, organizations even lack capacity to accommodate the new talent given the infrastructure and its facilities to ensure a comfortable and safe working environment. Hiring professionals for every technology or framework is quite a daunting task. Did you know more than 66% of companies admit to have outsourced their projects? And surprisingly, they are more satisfied to have availed services of software product development companies.
c. Performance management is crucial, and we all know it - A working software is the most important metrics that gauges the performance of the product. It weighs as much as 46.9% in 2019 and expected to scale up to 48.6%. Another parameter that has been in question is completion of assigned tasks mounting to 50% but would not matter as much as a working software in 2020. Other metrics that will determine performance product are code readability, bugs, test coverage, developer’s speed and skills, re-written code, and whatnots.
d. Tools - With the choice of testing tools, software product development companies now have the capability to deliver an excellent bespoke software product that works on par with customer expectations. With countless testing tools out there in the market, more than 42% companies use more than one testing tool with 12% using Selenium, and 6.27% using Jenkins. Other tools that are widely used for testing purposes are JUnit, Jest, Cucumber, Browerstack, Nunit, CircleCI, and many more. And certainly the popularity of these tools is expected to fluctuate the next year which will totally depend on how the end product turns out, the budget, time to research and use, and various other factors.
e. Your people - Success of an organization and its revenue is largely dependent on its people. Organizations do hire top talent, retaining them comes next. Tech giants often abide by the rules of hiring, and rely on attracting and encouraging their experts through a specific criterion. These may include the professionals’ willingness to learn and hands-on, work experience, cultural fit, test project or task, technical skill evaluation, soft skills, certifications, etc.
Software product development, in years has changed to a massive level. It is up to these organizations to develop a strategy that to a large extent involves these facets of product development and whatever that suits their tech needs.
