What was the idea behind starting this organization?
Being in the industry of mobile app development for many years, we understand that transforming an idea into an application is the most viable way to offer great and handy solutions to users. Taking the same thought ahead in mind, we started the firm with a vision to offer the latest tech-based mobile solutions at a cost-effective price. Being a young lad in the market, through our dedication, originality, workmanship, lucidity, and experts, we acquired a good share and a presence in the market.
What are your company’s business model–in house team or third party vendors/ outsourcing?
We do not outsource any app development project; we have a team of 100+ mobility experts that includes the project manager, designer, developers(both front-end and back-end), QA, and many more. Our in-house experts take care of each phase of the project. If required, then we do look for experienced developers from outside for extremely complex projects as we believe in delivering quality results to our clients.
How is your business model beneficial from a value addition perspective to the clients compared to other companies' models?
We believe in perfection and offer nothing but the best to our clients. We don’t just make dreary apps but also focuses on the overall design by sticking to the company’s identity. Also, our customized commercial model enables clients to make changes in the app while welcoming suggestions and feedback. Our distinctive approach makes us earn the potential to offer strategic advantages to the companies.
What industries do you generally cater to? Are your customers repetitive? If yes, what ratio of clients has been repetitive to you?
We provide mobile solutions to almost every industry, be it retail, education, healthcare, and many others. As we believe in perfection, the projects which we had delivered to our clients made them come back to us with more project requirements. This is the reason we have an 85% retention rate, and with every project, we thrive to provide service better than before.
Mention the objectives or the parameters critical in determining the time frame of developing a mobile app.
Developing a mobile application depends upon its features, functionality, complexity, UI, and other requirements. So before providing any time-frame, we first thoroughly analyze the project, which helps us in giving the right time-frame to the client. So, there is no specific parameter; we just analyze and provide our insights to the client.
How much effort in terms of time goes into developing the front end and back end of a mobile app?
Effort in terms of time depends upon the functionalities and features of the app. Most of the time, clients prefer to go ahead with MVP first, so MVP itself is a time-taking process that adds on to the total number of days required for completing the project.
What are the key parameters to be considered before selecting the right platform for a mobile application?
Product, the targeted country, target audience along with clients' business model and vision are a few of the parameters that matter before selecting the right platform. Going in detail regarding the right mobile app development platform that can provide greater presence and satisfactory revenue, we always look at the aforementioned factors numerous times while looking at inherent challenges associated with the platform.
Which platform do you suggest your clients to begin with when they approach you with an idea (Android or iOS) and why?
Being in the industry for many years, we very well understand that clients already know which approach they want for the application along with their set of target audiences. Hence, we make the app as per their needs. Meanwhile, those who are venturing into the world of the mobile app industry, we often prioritize market research first before suggesting any specific platform or an approach to them. However, we always make sure to guide them at every level to make their path easier and app flawless.
Android or iOS, Native or Hybrid — which platform is best to use to build your app? What are your recommendations?
All these platforms carry specific features, plus points and challenges associated with them and are meant for different purposes, for different audiences, for different budgets as well. Also, clients are aware of the aforementioned things, and we develop apps as per their needs that too according to their budget. Whereas those who are not aware of the things associated with these platforms, we ask them about their requirements, vision, goal to reach the mass before developing an application.
What are the key factors that you consider before deciding the cost of a mobile application?
The cost of developing an application depends upon the app’s features, functionality, complexity, MVP, technology stack, etc.
What kind of payment structure do you follow to bill your clients? Is it Pay per Feature, Fixed Cost, Pay per Milestone (could be in phases, months, versions, etc.)?
We work on all the payment structures, be it Pay Per Feature, Fixed Cost, or Pay Per Milestone. Also, it varies from project to project and on the client’s requirements. We always aim to make the payment process smooth for our clients.
Do you take in projects which meet your basic budget requirement? If yes, what is the minimum requirement? If no, on what minimum budget you have worked for?
We think every idea deserves to be transformed into reality. Though, we have made some budget parameters for the application which can be discussed with the higher authority. Also, we share a costing plan as per the features and functionality of the app with the client, and if that suits the client’s budget, we are good to go with the app development process.
What is the price range (min and max) of the projects that you catered to in 2018?
Last year we made projects starting from the range of $8,000 to $76,000. And this year till now is running better than before for an unstoppable future.
Which business model do you suggest to your clients enabling them to generate revenue from mobile applications? Why?
We suggest a business model as per the client’s project, idea, goals, and vision, along with guiding them regarding the possibilities and challenges associated with each model.
