Case Study: Agilysys (hospitality software customer) accelerates time-to-market and scales development with Coherent Solutions (solution provider)

Agilysys found the benefits of global delivery in a strategic, long-term, local partner

Agilysys, the maker of WMx — an integrated labor management platform for restaurant and hospitality customers — needed a cost-effective way to scale product development, maintain on-site collaboration, and manage a complex C++, COM and .NET codebase. After evaluating global sourcing options, Agilysys engaged Coherent Solutions to provide a blended U.S./offshore delivery model with an on-site project presence.

Coherent Solutions maintained, enhanced and tested WMx and took on strategic development of a new human resources module, quickly ramping on the proprietary technology. Coherent Solutions’ delivery management plus offshore talent helped Agilysys cut development costs (internal or local hires were estimated 2–3× more expensive), accelerate time to market, put all enhancements into production, and provide scalable, ongoing capacity.
