Mobile App Development

The project involved the development of an Android and iOS finance application for a client. While the design was handled in-house, we required an external partner to handle the development of the mobile apps. SteelKiwi was chosen as our development partner to take care of the technical aspects, ensuring the apps were built according to our specifications.

Visit Profile

Please provide your feedback on how Goodfirms has contributed to increasing your visibility among potential clients.

The Goodfirms platform provides us with a reputable space to showcase our services, expertise, and client testimonials, boosting our exposure to prospective clients. In addition, having a detailed portfolio and verified reviews on our profile helps build trust in our capabilities with potential customers even before they contact us.

Please introduce your company and describe your role within the organization.

Globaldev Group is a global custom software development company with a proven track record spanning over 13 years. Our in-house team of more than 400 experts has successfully delivered over 150 projects for clients worldwide. With offices and development hubs strategically located across Europe,  including Poland, Ukraine, Spain, and Portugal, as well as in Israel and Armenia  – we offer a truly global perspective and reach.
 
We provide two core services to our diverse clientele:
End-to-end engineering: This encompasses both ground-up product development and ongoing product enhancement and maintenance, allowing us to support our clients throughout the entire software lifecycle.
Team extension: We help our customers build capable teams, bridging capacity or skill gaps.
As CEO, I am committed to driving Globaldev's growth and maintaining our reputation for excellence. My role involves establishing and communicating the company's vision, mission, and long-term strategic goals. I oversee overall company performance, with a keen focus on client feedback and satisfaction. To this end, I conduct in-person meetings with our clients from time to time to gauge if we're meeting and exceeding their expectations. This hands-on approach allows us to stay agile, responsive, and aligned with our clients' needs.

What inspired the founding of your company, and what is the story behind its inception?

My inspiration was to dramatically improve our companies ability to build their products by leveraging the vast global pool of Software engineers and allow companies to scale quickly and manage cost effectively.

What are the core values and principles that drive your company's culture, and how do you ensure alignment with these values across your team?

At Globaldev, our core values of care, support, and honesty form the foundation of our company culture. These principles guide our interactions with both our employees and clients, fostering a positive and productive work environment.
Care is at the heart of our approach to employee well-being. We provide comprehensive support to our team members, including regular performance reviews, a bureaucracy-free work environment, team-building activities, and mentorship programs. We also ensure our employees have access to specialized equipment, software, and health insurance, demonstrating our commitment to their professional and personal needs.
Support is evident in how we handle challenges and growth opportunities. When team members face difficulties on projects or within their teams, we facilitate open, honest conversations to resolve conflicts constructively. We're proactive in addressing issues, approaching them swiftly and transparently to find effective solutions. Furthermore, we actively support our employees' professional development by providing mentorship and funding for courses they're interested in pursuing.
Our commitment to honesty is reflected in our transparent communication and decision-making processes. We believe in creating an environment where open dialogue is encouraged, and feedback is valued.

We strive to align our project assignments with our employees' interests and strengths, ensuring that team compositions are harmonious and that individuals are engaged with the work they're doing. This approach not only boosts job satisfaction but also enhances overall project outcomes.
Our values were particularly evident during challenging times such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. We provided our employees with the necessary resources and financial support for evacuation or relocation, even transforming our office into a temporary shelter.
 
To ensure alignment with these values across our team, we:

1. Incorporate our values into our hiring and onboarding processes
2. Lead by example, with management embodying these principles in their daily actions
3. Regularly communicate and reinforce these values through company-wide meetings and internal communications
4. Recognize and reward behaviors that exemplify our core values
5. Seek feedback from employees on how well we're living up to these principles

Can you highlight some of the key achievements or milestones your company has accomplished since its inception?

Since its founding, Globaldev has strategically acquired four companies, significantly expanding our reach, expertise, and portfolio. Our acquisitions include Skywell in 2021, Steelkiwi in 2022, Worknest in 2023, and most recently, Preezma in 2024. These integrations have bolstered our capabilities and reinforced our position as a dynamic force in the software development industry.
Our growth has earned us recognition in the industry. In March 2024, Clutch, a respected B2B review platform, named Globaldev one of the fastest-growing companies. We ranked 30th on the Clutch 100 list, thanks to our impressive 104% revenue growth from 2022 to 2023.
In 2023, Globaldev achieved ISO/IEC 27001 certification for information security to ensure the highest standards of data protection and risk management.
In May 2024, we received Clutch's 2024 Staff Augmentation Award. This honor is based on client feedback and industry expertise, reflecting the high-quality service we provide in team extension.

Could you explain your company's business model? Do you primarily operate with an in-house team or utilize third-party vendors/outsourcing?

Globaldev offers a comprehensive suite of software development services, primarily through two main service lines: end-to-end engineering and team extension. Our business model is built on flexibility, expertise, and client-centric solutions.
Our team extension service allows clients to augment their existing workforce with our skilled professionals. We can provide anything from a few experts to close specific skill gaps, to building entire dedicated teams. This approach offers significant cost efficiencies compared to full-time hiring, while providing access to our global talent pool for both long-term projects and short-term engagements. Clients benefit from reduced administrative overhead, rapid talent acquisition, and high-level expertise. Our robust recruitment capabilities, including 10 in-house recruiters, over 400 experts, and a database of more than 11,000 candidates, ensure we can meet diverse client needs swiftly and effectively.
Our engineering services encompass a wide range of offerings. We can design and develop software from the ground up, scale and enhance existing software solutions, and integrate cutting-edge technologies such as AI, ML, BI, and D&A to drive innovation, improve customer experiences, and optimize business processes. As a full-service custom software development company, we provide comprehensive end-to-end services, from product discovery and proof of concept to UX design and full-scale development. This holistic approach allows us to be a one-stop shop for all our clients' software needs, providing seamless, integrated solutions that align closely with their business objectives.
Importantly, our business model is built around our team of over 400 in-house professionals. By primarily relying on our own talent rather than third-party vendors or extensive outsourcing, we maintain high quality standards, ensure consistent communication, and foster long-term relationships with our clients.

How does your company differentiate itself from competitors in the industry?

Globaldev sets itself apart by building lasting relationships with our clients, not just delivering code. We go beyond simply following instructions – we make it our mission to truly understand each client's business. This deep understanding allows us to create solutions that genuinely serve the end users and drive our clients' success.
We offer a comprehensive range of services to meet nearly any type of request. These include development from scratch, product revamping, team extension, and expert guidance. This versatility enables us to adapt to our clients' evolving needs and provide support at any stage of their project or product lifecycle.
By getting to know the ins and outs of their industries and challenges, we can offer valuable insights and build software that addresses real business needs. Our goal is to be a long-term partner in our clients' growth, not just a short-term service provider. This approach leads to better outcomes: software that not only works well technically, but also helps our clients thrive in their markets.
The effectiveness of our approach is reflected in our client relationships. Over 80% of our new clients come as referrals from past and current clients, a testament to the trust we build and the value we deliver. This high referral rate demonstrates that our clients not only appreciate our work but are also eager to recommend our services to others in their network.

How would you describe the dynamics within your team, and how do you foster collaboration and teamwork to achieve common goals?

We foster collaboration and teamwork within the company through several key practices:
  • We maintain a culture of transparency where team members are encouraged to raise any issues directly with their team lead, project manager, or HR. Regular team meetings provide an open platform to discuss ideas and challenges. At the end of each sprint, we hold retrospective meetings to reflect on what went well and identify areas for improvement.
  • To encourage knowledge sharing and innovation, we’ve established communities that span different departments. These communities provide opportunities for anyone to engage with experts in other fields, gaining insights into their work and fostering cross-functional learning.
  • Creating a supportive environment is central to our culture. We prioritize providing both work-related and personal support to our employees. By leading with empathy and care, we inspire our teams to adopt the same supportive approach, ensuring that everyone feels valued.

What measures do you take to support the professional development and growth of your employees? Do you offer training programs or opportunities for skill enhancement?

We've implemented a comprehensive approach to support continuous learning and skill enhancement of our employees. Our mentorship program allows employees to engage in one-on-one sessions with department experts, fostering personalized skill development. We provide access to a corporate Udemy account, giving team members the flexibility to choose courses aligned with their individual goals.
We've established department-specific communities for knowledge-sharing and collaborative problem-solving. We actively encourage innovation, as seen in our recent AI-powered chatbot project. We also develop in-house training programs, such as our recent course on data analytics and business intelligence for beginners.

Could you share a notable success story or case study that exemplifies the impact your company has had on a client's business?

One of the standout projects we’ve worked on was with ECIT Norge, a Nordic company that provides financial and IT services across Scandinavia. ECIT had just acquired a business expense tracking app called Travis, but the app had a lot of functionality issues. They knew the value of this kind of app for midsize and large businesses, but it needed a complete overhaul to reach its potential.
ECIT asked us to rebuild the Travis app from the ground up using Flutter. At the same time, they were facing another issue – one of their payroll systems, Intect, was losing customers to competitors that offered a combined expense and payroll management solution. ECIT saw an opportunity to create a more integrated approach, and they needed our help to make it happen.
We completely redesigned the Travis app with a modular, white-label solution. This allowed ECIT to customize the app for different markets and clients, whether they were using ECIT’s payroll systems (Intect and NettLønn) or even third-party software. Employees could now easily manage everything from uploading receipts to creating and submitting expense reports, while admins could track and manage expenses across the company.
With the revamped Travis app, ECIT was able to offer an all-in-one expense and payroll management solution, which helped them retain clients and expand their offerings. The new app played a crucial role in helping them meet their market demands and grow their business.
This project really showed how we can work with clients to create tailored solutions that solve immediate problems while also setting them up for future success.

What industries do you primarily cater to, and do you have a significant percentage of repeat clients? If so, what is the ratio of repeat clients?

Our company caters to a diverse range of industries, with our strongest presence in three key sectors: financial and fintech, pharmaceutical and healthcare, and energy and utilities.
While we serve clients across nearly 10 different industries, these three sectors currently represent the majority of our client base.
Regarding repeat clients, we pride ourselves on building long-term relationships with our customers. On average, our clients engage with us for over three years, which demonstrates a high level of client retention and satisfaction. This long-term cooperation makes it challenging to provide a traditional "repeat client" ratio.
However, a strong indicator of our client satisfaction and service quality is our referral rate. Over 80% of our new clients come to us through referrals from past and current clients. This high referral rate suggests that our existing clients not only continue to work with us but also actively recommend our services to others in their network.

What initiatives does your company undertake to foster innovation and stay at the forefront of industry trends? Do you invest in research and development projects?

We invest significantly in developing expertise in AI and ML technologies, recognizing these as key drivers of future innovation across industries. Additionally, we focus heavily on expanding our capabilities in Data Analytics and Business Intelligence to provide cutting-edge solutions to our clients.
To stay informed about industry trends, we host regular cross-departmental meetings where professionals discuss emerging technologies and potential challenges. These sessions are open to all employees, fostering a company-wide culture of innovation and awareness. We've also implemented comprehensive internal upskilling programs focused on AI, ML, Data Analytics, and Business Intelligence. These programs have high participation rates even among non-technical staff, showing a company-wide commitment to innovation.
Our employees have demonstrated remarkable initiative in proposing technology-driven improvements to client projects. These innovations have resulted in substantial enhancements to their solutions, keeping us and our clients at the cutting edge of industry developments.

Please share some of the most sought-after services that clients approach your company for.

Our company's most sought-after service is staff augmentation. This offering has gained significant traction due to our robust recruitment capabilities and our ability to swiftly meet diverse client needs. We've built a comprehensive infrastructure to support this service, including:
  • A team of 10 in-house recruiters dedicated to identifying top talent
  • A pool of over 400 experts ready for deployment
  • An extensive database containing more than 11,000 qualified candidates
This combination allows us to efficiently match skilled professionals to our clients' specific requirements, whether they need to scale their teams quickly, access specialized expertise, or fill temporary skill gaps. Our staff augmentation service is particularly valued for its flexibility, quality of talent, and our ability to respond rapidly to changing market demands.
While staff augmentation is currently our most requested service, our engineering services are not far behind – we have clients reaching out to us for software development from scratch and modernizing solutions as well.

How do you build and maintain strong relationships with your clients, and what mechanisms do you have in place for gathering and acting upon client feedback?

Globaldev builds and maintains strong client relationships through a comprehensive approach centered on dedicated account managers for each client. These managers serve as the primary point of contact, addressing issues promptly as they arise. For employee-related concerns, account managers collaborate with HR specialists to gather feedback and resolve problems efficiently.
We emphasize proactive relationship management by conducting regular feedback sessions with both clients and internal teams. This practice allows Globaldev to identify and address potential issues before they escalate, ensuring smooth ongoing partnerships.
Transparency and unwavering commitment to resolving client requests are cornerstones of Globaldev's service philosophy. This approach, combined with a wide range of services including development from scratch, product revamping, team extension, and expert guidance, enables clients to achieve their development goals through a single, reliable partner.

How has your company adapted to changes and challenges in the business landscape, and what strategies have you employed to ensure resilience and sustainability?

At Globaldev, we've implemented several strategies to adapt to the changing business landscape and ensure our resilience. We've strategically expanded our reach, both geographically and in terms of our service offerings. Our acquisition of Preezma, which became Globaldev Armenia, demonstrates our commitment to entering new markets. Additionally, we've made significant investments in developing our AI/ML and Business Intelligence expertise, diversifying our service portfolio and reducing reliance on any single revenue stream.
We also foster a culture of innovation, keeping us aligned with industry trends and technological advancements. This approach enables us to anticipate and respond to market shifts effectively. And we're big on helping our employees grow through training, which keeps us ready for new challenges.
Our customer-centric approach guides our business decisions, ensuring we stay relevant to our clients' evolving needs. We've also strengthened our cybersecurity measures to protect both our company and our clients' projects. Finally, we maintain transparent communication with clients, preventing problems before they become big issues, and building lasting relationships.

What payment structure do you typically follow when billing clients? Is it Pay per Feature, Fixed Cost, or Pay per Milestone (phases, months, versions, etc.)?

Globaldev adapts its billing approach to each client's specific needs and the type of service requested. While they offer various payment structures, two main models are most common:
The time and materials pricing model is used for most clients. Under this system, clients pay regularly for work completed, based on the actual time spent on development. This model offers flexibility in project requirements, transparent hourly rates, and high-quality results due to multiple review cycles. Clients can easily monitor progress through regular reports.
For team extension services, Globaldev often uses the outstaffing pricing model. This can involve either hourly rates or a fixed price arrangement similar to a regular salary. The outstaffing model helps clients reduce costs, access a wider pool of talent, and potentially launch projects faster.

Do you accept projects that meet your basic budget requirements? If yes, what is the minimum budget requirement? If no, what is the minimum budget you have worked with in the past?

Minimum budget requirement would be 30K$.

Can you provide an overview of the price range (minimum and maximum) of the projects your company worked on in 2023?

30K$ - 1.5M$.

What technological capabilities does your company possess, and are there any ongoing or planned investments in technology infrastructure or tools to enhance your services?

Our company possesses a comprehensive range of technological capabilities across various software development domains:
  • Web and intranet solutions: Developing company-focused intranet solutions for enhanced process organization and collaboration.
  • Mobile solutions: Native and hybrid mobile app development using Swift, Kotlin, Flutter, Java, and Objective C.

Where do you envision your company in the next 10 years? What are your long-term goals and aspirations for growth and development?

In 10 years, our company will continue its growth , serve more customers around the world, open new development hubs in other countries, and become a well known brand in the Software delivery market.
