Enterprise opens a new PoC opportunity
When opening a new opportunity, the enterprise defines the testing environment and uploads all relevant documentation
Startups/ ISVs can also suggest a relevant PoC to an enterprise
Enterprise defines and sets up testing environment
The testing environment takes only minutes to set up - use prooV's smart analytics to discover data structures and recieve a simulated testing environment with mock-up data
Startups/ ISVs apply to join the PoC opportunity
Enterprise reviews join requests and approves relevant solutions
Approved startups/ ISVs are immediately granted access to the testing environment and are given the components needed to run a successful PoC including: Remote server connection (Linux or Windows), APIs, data connection, containers, Big Data Stream etc.
Startups/ ISVs connect to the secure testing environment and run the PoC
Enterprise monitors PoCs progress and analyzes results
The enterprise can compare solutions in relation to the specific KPIs set for the PoC as well as simulate the behavior of evaluated solutions in different circumstances using prooV's predictive analytics
After the startups/ ISVs complete the PoC, the enterprise receives the final results and decides how to proceed
