Out of the lab – Into the Market

The CloudTeams online platform has already been launched in public (https://cloudteams.eu/) and its user base is increasing gradually ever since. CloudTeams is the only platform on the market, that offers the ability to (a) co-create software products with their staff and internal customers, (b) directly integrate their feedback in the development process of an enterprise, and (c) overall make better products with less efforts.We aim to offer services on the support, customization and extension of the platform as well as training.

Benefits of participation in the Framework Programme

The participation in the framework programme has helped providing the initial capital to research and shape the product during its inception phase. Moreover through the co-organized events with other projects it has helped expand its network beyond the initial network of the consortium partners.
