Nucleus Research Interviews Customers Using patterns & practices
June 2008
Adopting releases from Microsoft patterns & practices delivers substantial benefits. That is the experience of customers who have used patterns & practices to deliver their projects. Microsoft asked Nucleus Research to interview people using patterns & practices in their day-to-day development projects to discuss their experiences and learn from their experiences. Now the research report is available for you to examine.
Customers using patterns & practices told Nucleus Research that patterns & practices releases have helped them achieve productivity savings across projects:
"We've reused something we created with the Enterprise Library at least three times. Every time it eliminated about 90 hours from the project."
"We used the enterprise library to cut the cycle time for the server part of the project by almost 25 percent."
"The functionality is so rich and reliable that people should spend more time thinking about the business requirements and functionality rather than development."
Best Practices For Adoption
Customers shared their experiences that drive the most effective use of p&p components and releases in their projects. These include:
- team productivity
- quality and timeliness
- p&p documentation

- project cycle time
If you are looking for information on how your team or organization could benefit from using p&p releases and discover pitfalls to avoid, read this research paper to learn from the hard-won experiences of other adopters.
