Product Development: MVP for a Strategic Platform

The results

For several reasons, the client was soon impressed by the advantages of the offer: 

• the flexibility of the team allowed the company to bypass recruitment (less financial risk than hiring) 
• the price 
• the implementation timeline (2 months instead of 6 on average for product development from scratch) 

Once the platform was delivered, two weeks of training were provided for the transfer of skills and to ensure that the client could operate independently with the solution. 

The expertise of the Pentalog CTO also proved invaluable in coordinating the team and developing a solution tailored to the client’s requirements and constraints. 

This IT project was a first for the client, who was delighted with the way that the Pentalog team eased the company into the fundamentals of their world. It also helped the client learn to make compromises between development time, price and functional depth. 

Today, the client can promote the Strat’Lab platform thanks to its multi-site implementation that provides a demo space alongside the client space. Pré Salé now works with major companies, including a large French retailer that specialises in construction, DIY and gardening in Russia. 

The client still keeps in regular contact with Pentalog, whose team are happy to respond to any queries. They have also handled additional operations (natural SEO and product improvement) upon request. 

Thanks to the technical expertise of the Pentalog CTO, the client acquired a tailor-made solution that was perfectly suited to its time-to-market and technical requirements.
