Marketplace for Software Projects - the Offer Is Valued by Users and Expanding

The pliXos B2B marketplace for software development projects (www.plixos.com/market) is getting positive recognition by users. Additionally, a new rating system was defined and is currently evaluated by experts.

After launching the pliXos B2B marketplace for fast and safe tendering of global software development projects for customers, new service providers have continuously been added. For this purpose pliXos identified fitting enterprises and directly asked them to register on the marketplace. Especially providers from Eastern European countries like Ukraine and Bulgaria showed great interest.


A rating system of providers from a customer's perspective was developed and is currently evaluated by domain experts. Both, direct customers of a specific provider as well as pliXos as the neutral operator of the marketplace are able to rate individual providers, which shall serve as a valuable source of information to new customers.


The rating system contains three quality clusters: "delivered software, service and the service provider in general" each one consisting of further sub-criteria. Particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) profit from the neutral ratings, since many may not be familiar with the implementation of global development projects. The marketplace helps them with getting started easily and at low risk.


Dr. Joerg Stimmer, MD of pliXos, explains: "The positive resonance we got after presenting the rating system to selected experts proves that the rating system results in a significant increase in attractiveness of our marketplace for customers. We offer SMEs a possibility to minimize risks of tendering and project implementation.
In numerous domains, the Internet offers a major extension of the classical value proposition of enterprises. This allows new potentials to be realized and especially SMEs could profit from this development.


Dr. Joerg Stimmer is convinced that in line with an increasing Digitalisation the dynamics of the Internet will extend to services between companies ("B2B") in the following years. We want to contribute to this development with our marketplace.
