Most enterprises are committed to a digital strategy and looking for ways to improve the productivity of their workforce. At the same time, developers are scarce, and the demand for new software is high. This has spurred interest around understanding and measuring developer productivity, says Keith Mann, senior director, analyst, at Gartner. “Organizations need to get the most out of the limited number of developers they’ve got,” he says. “Gartner’s surveys and data from client inquiries confirm that developer productivity remains a top priority for software engineering leaders.”
