Product Development

Software Product Development is a staged and unique process that brings in enterprise wide transformation. A robust product is characterized by its rich functionality, addressing the unique needs of the customers.

The team at Nihilent understands the uniqueness that each enterprise brings to the table, which is why we leverage our Design Thinking approach to create a sophisticated and integrated product delivery model that uses actual customer insights to drive the product development life-cycle, ensuring that we give our customers a thoroughly customized product option that is tailormade for them.

Nihilent has undertaken several product engineering engagements for start-ups and innovators as their product engineering and development partner. By bringing in an outward-in customer-centric view to scaled product engineering, our teams have played a key role in the creation of innovation IP in areas as diverse as Mobile Money and Payments, Blockchain, Health Records, Digital Platforms and Data Monetization solutions.


Though they seem similar, there are radical differences between project and product development.
