SANTA CRUZ, Calif.- July 13, 2010 - Evans Data today announced the availability of a new service providing developer relations program management, maintenance, enhancement and marketing. Companies who are new to developer relations or who wish to offload parts of existing programs for greater efficiency can now contract with Evans Data's new Developer Relations Outsourcing division for planning and execution of program elements that range from management and maintenance to recruiting and outreach.

"Today it is critical for many companies who previously had no need for a developer program to actively promote their platforms to developers and to cultivate a developer community." said Janel Garvin, CEO of Evans Data. "This is true in diverse industries such as healthcare, automotive, transportation and even consumer industries. Any company that has a development platform needs developers to write to that platform and that means a program to help them do that."

The new service provides outsourced program elements or fully outsourced programs including managed community websites, blogs, moderated forums, developer satisfaction benchmarking, recommendations for tools, SDKs, APIs and partnerships. Interested parties should call 800-831-3080 for more details.

Evans Data Corporation provides regularly updated IT industry market intelligence based on in-depth surveys of the global developer population. Evans' syndicated research includes surveys focused on developers in a wide variety of subjects.
