Steve Miller, is President and CEO, responsible for formulating strategic goals for the company, and leading corporate initiatives. He founded the company in 1992 as a software consulting firm, offering software architecture, project management, and programming services to companies like Microsoft, Perot Systems and EDS. After directing large scale software projects, Miller found an increasing need for collaborative tools to manage the entire software development lifecycle (SDLC). In his experience, he found that it normally took 3 or 4 software products to manage all phases of the lifecycle, and saw a need for a single solution, allowing a more integrated experience for the end user.

In 1999, Miller incorporated Pragmatic Software and began development of Software Planner, a complete web-based SDLC tool. Released in 2000, Software Planner has been a huge success, now servicing over 70,000 subscribers. Miller's vision for Pragmatic Software is to offer products that offer pragmatic (practical) solutions that are better than it's competitors, are affordable for small companies but scalable for large organizations. Miller's emphasis on technical support has won accolades from his clients, as his support team provides a great client experience, responding to support request in minutes instead of days. Miller has over 23 years of experience in software development, project management, and software architecture. Miller writes for several electronic magazines and creates a monthly newsletter that is distributed to over 100,000 software engineers monthly.

Pragmatic’s Web Information Center is a team portal that allows non-software companies to manage their projects, customer relationships (CRM) and customer support issues quickly and effectively.

Powered with tools for managing project deliverables combined with collaborative features like team calendars, document sharing, threaded discussions and graphical dashboards, teams begin communicating and providing better service to their customers.
