Product Development
We succeed by helping our clients win.
Product Development

Our proactive approach to developing products that anticipate features and capabilities that users value, and our track record for executing to plan—on time, within budget—have earned us the reputation for being a trustworthy product development partner.

Our product development philosophy:

• Past success guarantees nothing—we need to prove ourselves every day

• Markets are dynamic, global and connected

• Companies that innovate rapidly and redefine their market will win

Sometimes clients have entrusted us with a concept so rudimentary that it was the software equivalent of a sketch on a napkin. We have taken it from there, working collaboratively to evolve into a detailed specification. At other times, clients outsource key modules of their product development projects to us.

In the 1990s, we helped Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) outperform Intel in the benchmark wars, establishing AMD as a credible alternative supplier of high-performance microprocessors.

We helped Sun develop Java before they named it Java. 

We are the acknowledged pioneers in the digital video recorder (DVR) industry, with several million consumers using our technology to record and watch their TV programs every day. Our new web service (www.HotDoodle.com) combines innovative technology with one-on-one website design service to help small businesses establish an online presence. (You can read more about our DVR technology and HotDoodle in Metabyte Ventures.)

Recently we helped Cisco develop their TelePresence products, and helped Silver Moon Group with their extended reporting period (ERP) insurance products.

Metabyte Innovation Labs

Metabyte Innovation Labs (MIL) is an advanced R&D center. Its charter is to incubate ideas, experiment with new technologies, and stay ahead of the curve with emerging technologies and market trends that impact our clients.

Developing Leading-Edge Products

Technology companies make their living by developing leading-edge products, focusing on their core competencies, managing expenses, and quickly speeding their products to market. To do all these things, they often use Metabyte’s help to offload some of their core development work, migrate their products to different platforms, or provide a range of support services. We conceptualize, develop and help bring new products to market. We also develop solutions for our clients’ internal use.

And sometimes clients look to us to craft “silver bullets” — game-changing solutions that help them compete and win. Read Crafting Silver Bullets 

Metabyte’s Product Development Philosophy
  • Past success does not guarantee future success; you need to start the race again every day.

Product Development

At Metabyte we craft silver bullets so our clients can compete and win.

Our product development philosophy

  • Past success does not guarantee future success … every day is a new race
  • Market is dynamic, global and connected
  • Companies who innovate rapidly within their market will win today

If a product doesn’t inspire a consumer to desperately want it, then it is not a product. We conceptualize, develop and bring new products to market, and also develop solutions for our clients’ internal use.

In the 1990s we helped AMD outperform Intel in benchmark wars and have a successful launch of their microprocessor business.

We are the recognized pioneers in the Digital Video Recorder Industry (DVR) with several million consumers daily using our technology to record and watch their TV programs. You can read more about our DVR technology in History.

Recently we brought mobile connectivity to the sales forces of Nike and Edwards Lifesciences so they could tap into their respective enterprise CRM systems.

Our new web service (www.HotDoodle.com) is bringing business-worthy website creation technology to the masses and enabling web savvy individuals to earn from home.
