InQuira Uses Serena Software

November 24, 2009

InQuira, a natural language search system vendor, uses the Serena Software On Demand service. You can get the details in “Serena Software Makes Agile On Demand Product Free.” InQuira began using Agile On Demand in March of 2009 to help adopt Agile development across it’s development organization. The company tested Serena with a very small group of developers and immediately saw the time, resource and cost benefits of Agile On Demand. Within 3 months, their entire 50 person development team adopted Agile and began using the product.

Serena is a privately owned company, headquartered in Redwood City, California, with 29 offices in 14 countries. Serena provides software to over 15,000 customers including 96 of the Fortune 100. Serena helps customers lower costs by standardizing and automating development processes across both mainframe and distributed environments. More information about Serena is available at http://www.serena.com.

I found the item interesting because search vendors do not usually reveal the software and systems used to create their products.

I think the Grain Inspection Packers and Stockyards Administration needs to know that I was not paid to write about this programming tool that keeps herding the InQuira programming doggies along.

    Definitely interesting — I know an Agile group and they seem very productive. I think LinkedIn may be doing the same, as I often see minor enhancements just appear. So far, they’ve all been good ones.
