What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

We had a legacy CMS platform which managed interactive content for our clients. It was monolithic application with tight coupling between the DB and the downstream apps. whenever there was an enhancement to be done or maintenance activity, it would consume a lot of time and our get the features out of the door to the market time was literally huge. Speedment helped us moderzine our java codebase, loosen the coupling between apps so that each one of them could have their own enhancements independently and also reduced our go to market time.
