Supreme technical abilities
What is it about the company that you appreciate the most?
Backend and frontend development, Android and iOS
Consultancy Happens APP
Our company building a digital event aggregator platform. Our goal is to offer the ultimate experience for organizers to profile their events, and for users to find events. My role in this company is head of business.
Riseapp took over after our previous developers to continue development on the mobile app version of Happens. Riseappss have also built a new backend for us, as well as a web-application for our service.
Our initial goal was to do some changes in development on our app, but due to good service we continued using Riseapps for further development.
Our company did a comprehensive search to find high quality developers for a good price. We made a listing on Upwork and interviewed five potential vendors before choosing Riseapps.
Our mobile app is written in React native, so we hired Whatsapp for their expertise on React programming. We wanted to develop basic functionality such as interactive program features and interactive map features. We also have strict criterias for design and responsive interaction on our app, which was met by Riseapps.
Riseapps have a very large team with different expertise. We were assigned a team of five people, one python-expert for backend, one react native developer for frontend, one react developer for web-application, one UX designer and one project manager.
The mobile app “Happens – all events in Norway” is available on Appstore and Google play. The web-application is available on www.happens.host
The workflow has been very effective. We’ve been using Slack, and the response-time there have never been more than an hour as far as I can remember, and we’ve been sharing thousands of messages.
I think Riseapps is a very serious and professionally driven company. The management have impressed my with very good structure, ability to make very detailed plans, and discover edge cases did we didn’t see ourselves. They also offer very clean designs, and very responsive applications which creates a good feel and experience for the user.
The only thing that was not perfect was that we went a bit over budget. It’s a shared blame, as things got more complicated than firstly planned, and from working on several software development project I also know how normal this is. It’s also a natural consequence of working hourly in stead of having a fixed price, so I’m not sure if its possible to improve. Our experience with Riseapps have been more or less perfect. I would highly recommend and will most definitely use them again.

What is it about the company that you appreciate the most?
Communication, Speed, Accountability, Talent, and they care (very rare in this industry) about your Product
What was it about the company that you didn't like which they should do better?
They need more clients in order to expand their methodology, only time will help them with that
The quality lived up to our expectations. We were able to build an app that we can continue working on.
- They had the technical skills we were looking for to execute our project
- Great team to work with. They were an extension of our team in New York City.
- More detailed and clearer communications during sprints and presentations of deliverables.
Noho Medical Remote Healthcare App
Most importantly, they were very flexible and willing to work with us without making us feel like every little request we made would result in major increases in cost. This was especially true towards the end of our project when funding was a real issue for us - Vladlen was more than willing to work with us to make sure we all ended up happy.
What is it about the company that you appreciate the most?
- tech knowledge - design competence - tech flexibility
What was it about the company that you didn't like which they should do better?
I do think it's important to make sure you review where the project stands every 2-4 weeks. We held off for too long on having a re-estimate/overview to make sure we were still on track. I think Rise could do a better job of guiding clients, but we also could have been more on top of it ourselves.
Excellent and professional service
Development of BabyWise app
I have worked with many software companies in Western Europe, America and Asia. The quality of the work done by RiseApps is denitely comparable - price and service level is just much better.
What is it about the company that you appreciate the most?
Service level! RiseApps have been able to fulll all the development needs we have had. They have acted proactively and taken our targets seriously. Quality of work: Comparable to every other software company I have worked with.
What was it about the company that you didn't like which they should do better?
As a customer I should have insisted on a face-2-face meeting - this is an improvement for us more than RiseApps.

• Our development team is highly professional; some of the senior engineers have 15+ years of development experience.
• We pay a lot of attention to quality assurance as it is the moment of truth for any final product. If an app isn’t responding properly or doesn’t perform on a predefined set of devices, it will hardly ever be used. That’s why we have invested in a full range of devices covering the two most widespread platforms, iOS and Android. As far as I know, not all companies can afford to purchase a lot of devices to perform testing only.
• Riseapps is an engaged team. We approach every project as if it’s our personal thing, always responsible, and trying to surpass clients’ expectations.
We offer our clients all the knowledge we gained and thereby help them build valuable projects that help them reach their goals faster. Riseapps is building long-lasting relationships with its clients by offering highly qualified development services, and I feel proud today to say that more than 70% of clients are repetitive.
Moreover, it’s incredibly satisfying to read pleasant clients’ reviews here on GoodFirms.
Sometimes frontend and backend complexities are similar, so they require almost equal time.
Cross-platform development, in turn, is faster than native. It's also less expensive, and one code covers two platforms. However, it won't be a perfect choice for super custom solutions with complicated animation. Nevertheless, cross-platform frameworks are evolving and offering more and more opportunities.
As of today, I'd recommend choosing cross-platform development for start-ups, as you can target both iOS and Android. And releasing an MVP model won't cost much. For cross-platform development, you can take a closer look at Flutter and React Native.
If performance, animation, and speed are your top priority, the best choice is to go for native development. Sometimes the selection is made by technologies you are implementing, e.g., an app with AR, VR functionality will demand high performance, leading to native development.
The best thing about these models is that they can guarantee constant cash flow.
