GlobalLogic and Enthiosys Partner to Provide Technology Leaders With Integrated Software Engineering and Agile Product Management Services


(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) VIENNA, VA and MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA, November 11 / MARKET WIRE/ --

GlobalLogic, Inc., the
leader in global product development services, and Enthiosys, Inc., the
leader in Agile product management, have partnered to offer technology
firms full product development lifecycle services including customer needs
analysis, software development and support, business model design and
strategic roadmaps. Both firms specialize in different aspects of Agile
development.

The partnership combines GlobalLogic's award-winning expertise in
distributed Agile development with Enthiosys' extensive knowledge of Agile
product management and training. Their integrated services will enable
both early-stage and established companies to accelerate their product
development cycles to bring innovative software products to market more
quickly.

"Many of our nearly 200 technology clients have sought us out because of
our reputation for successfully managing Agile-based software product
development across a highly distributed environment," explained Peter
Harrison, chief executive officer of GlobalLogic. "Velocity(TM), our
platform for this, enables our product engineers to collaborate with our
clients across geographic boundaries to meet the important product quality
and time-to-market goals our clients have set. Enthiosys helps us better
serve these clients by providing strategic counsel on product roadmaps and
market strategy, training for Agile product managers, and customer
innovation techniques."

In contrast to many firms that focus on IT services, GlobalLogic
specializes in software product R&D for emerging and established technology
companies. Its services include everything from market analysis and product
conceptualization, engineering to migration, testing and support. The
company has received widespread recognition for innovation in software
product R&D, including its InfoWorld award-winning platform for distributed
Agile development, GlobalLogic Velocity(TM)
(http://www.globallogic.com/Media/pressReleaseDetail.asp?press/65) and
GlobalLogic Version 1.0sm, an offering for both early and late stage
companies that has helped the company's clients launch innovative and
disruptive technologies at major conferences such as Demofall-2008
(http://www.globallogic.com/Media/pressReleaseDetail.asp?press/100).

"GlobalLogic's product development services are technologically advanced,
globally distributed, and provide a unique joint-venture partnering model
for their clients," said Luke Hohmann, chief executive officer of
Enthiosys. "GlobalLogic takes partial or full ownership of product
engineering, platform and architecture for a wide range of companies: from
start-ups to the world's largest technology companies. Their award-winning
Agile platform, GlobalLogic Velocity(TM), supports massively distributed
Agile development and highlights the value of Agile product management. As
pioneers in Agile product management, we're thrilled to be teaming up with
such industry leaders. Our joint clients are able to identify strategic
market opportunities more clearly and get solutions to market faster."

About GlobalLogic


The leading specialist in providing global software product development
services, GlobalLogic, Inc., partners with emerging and established
technology companies to help them bring great software products to market
in less time and at less cost. GlobalLogic has developed a unique
joint-venture model of partnering with technology companies to create a
dedicated global delivery center. The software R&D engineers located in our
centers in the U.S., India, China and Ukraine serve as virtual extensions
of our client's local development teams. In other cases where the client
does not have any internal engineering staff, GlobalLogic provides a
"fabless" partnership from the start, with GlobalLogic taking ownership of
the product engineering, platform and architecture. This allows companies
to focus on the other aspects of a successful product launch such as
strategy, marketing, customer acquisition, go-to-market challenges and the
demands of ever-changing markets. By leveraging our global facilities,
world-class engineers and state-of-the-art tools and processes, companies
can increase the quality of their software products while dramatically
reducing timelines and operating costs -- often by 30 percent or more.

GlobalLogic has ongoing partnerships with more than 150 technology
companies in product vertical markets that include Consumer, Mobile,
Telecom, Healthcare, Enterprise and Embedded. It has completed more than
300 major products in the last 12 months with a better than 95 percent
