Embedded Systems and Software
Consumer demand has driven today’s products – from mobile phones and automobiles
to refrigerators to television sets – to include many advanced features enabled
through the use of software-driven electronics. The pervasiveness of embedded software
means devices are more complex than ever, leading to a need for more product validation,
a longer and more expensive product development process, and lower product quality
and reliability. Additionally, user experience has become an important differentiator.

for markets like healthcare, telecom, consumer electronics etc, Symphony Services
is well positioned to deliver the right technology platforms, solutions and time-to-market
accelerators to help clients in the Embedded space accelerate product introduction,
