All look like iPhone, it seems designs stopped after the iPhone.

Recently, the issue between Samsung and Apple highlighted that everyone in the race is following Apple (shepherd) like sheep’s. In short, “monopoly over rectangles with rounded corners,” an era of rapid and exciting innovation in mobile design is over.

Companies may now need to unshackle their designers to come up with genre-busting form factors and user interfaces that breathe fresh life into the industry.

“We don’t know yet how far the impacts are going to go from here,” says Paul Pugh, creative vice president at frog, a San Francisco-based design company owned by India’s Aricent Group.

“I do hope it’s an inspiration moment for the Android Platform and the manufacturers to put their bets on innovation … to come with great user experience based on users’ needs, and not stagnate based on the patents crippling them.”

Building a device and the suite of office applications to go with it required at least five years gestation, an investment the parent company in the end couldn’t make. “We were very ahead,” said the person, who was not authorized to speak about the project and declined to be identified. “We were very sad to see innovation being pushed aside.”

“There was a lot of ingenuity about the mechanical configuration of designing buttons and cameras and exposing these particular features,” said Horace Dediu, a former Nokia engineer who now runs a consultancy and influential blog called Asymco. With the rise of the iPhone “all that went away when you have a clean glass display with touch interface.”

In the past, there was a competition on speed and technology base. These things are now relatively normalized and design is really defining the device and the device experience.

Value of design is booming.

The most significant outcome of the Apple Samsung spat, however, may be that design is no longer merely an afterthought.

(LAMP)  i.e. Linux, Apache web server, MySQL database and PHP scripting is widespread platform for web solutions.

Most of the time you find yourself searching for a software outsourcing partner in order to make it more cost effective. Developing countries like India offers highly skilled resource and you can enjoy the benefits of having such skilled resources working on your project. Hiring such quality resources at your country will certainly cost you more.

But while choosing your software outsourcing partner you must understand the current scenario in the developing countries like India. There is a cut throat competition among the companies. India has become IT hub and lots of new companies are formed in a single month. This is because of the follow the crowd attitude. There are companies which neither good resources nor good infrastructure because they can’t afford it. All they can do is design a very good website and write some sophisticated article which can easily evade you. You certainly can’t travel to India every time before making a deal. In this case you can’t expect a quality work. You are outsourcing because you are looking for quality work at an economical rate not cheap work at cheap rate.

Now coming to the most important part of the article how you can judge your software outsourcing partner.  How can you save yourself from the pain of selecting the wrong partner? If you want to avoid this blunder then you really want to pay attention now

Firstly as I have mentioned there is a cut throat competition among the companies and everyday new companies are formed so must be aware of the universal law of nature- “Survival of the fittest”. Every time there is a struggle for survival, the fittest survives no matter how tough the fight is. Therefore a company which is able to survive for a decade and continue to flourish is certainly the right choice. It definitely has all the necessary expertise to survive and serve the clients. Companies that lack this expertise generally fail to survive more than a couple of years.

Secondly your concern is quality. You can’t compromise the quality. Therefore any outsourcing decision that you make at the cost of the quality is certainly a bad decision. There are some companies out there which use the low cost low quality strategy in order to beat the competitors. In the short run this might work but in the long run these companies will fade away from the picture. There are companies which follow high cost and high quality strategy which is much better. But you need good quality in low price remember. That is the reason when Nike gives 40% flat off you rush to the nearest showroom while there are hundreds of shoe shops available which sell cheap shoes in your city. There are companies which offer quality work at economical rate. It might not be cheap but you can rest assured about the quality. Just think about it every company wants make profit. Now if a company is offering its services at very cheap rate then you must understand that the company is still making profit. How can it be possible? Obviously the company has to hire cheap workforce. Now the question is do you want your work to be done by unskilled cheap workforce?

Third important factor is professionalism. There are companies which promise to do a work but fail to complete it on time due to lack of resource and expertise. They are expert at giving that perfect sales pitch which touches your heart and makes you feel this is the right company. In the end you are the one who will suffer. Therefore you want to work with a company which very professional which does give a lucrative sales pitch but does what it promises. One that completes its work on time and in the way it promises.

Lastly communication is very important.  Mostly English is the language of communication so you certainly want work with someone who is well versed in English both in written and spoken. This you can expect to get only in standard companies.

Choice is your now. Either choose pain and frustration or enjoy all these wonderful amazing benefits of software outsourcing.
