Surf Executive Interview
As Chief Commercial Officer, I am responsible for several areas. I am in charge of planning, implementing, and developing commercial strategies in line with the goals and objectives we set for the further growth of the company. My task is to manage and monitor commercial activities and KPIs achieved, and report to our top executives. My responsibilities also include market research and analysis, acquiring new clients, and maintaining partnership relations with our current clients. Another area covers the coordination of our sales, marketing, and production teams’ activities which is crucial for reaching the goals set and delivering high-quality results.
A good example of early technology adoption by Surf is Flutter, a cross-platform development framework. Having started developing with Flutter as early as it appeared, we have built a strong Flutter team. They created the first Flutter-powered bank in Europe, a custom YouTube-like video streaming platform, and other solutions. Surf actively contributes to the Flutter community development: our SurfGear open-source repository shares a set of libraries and tools to enhance Flutter development, and our Elementary library offers a new approach to Flutter apps architecture.
The next competitive advantage is our rich cross-industry experience and the polished processes and practices that we bring to every new project. We know from practical experience, how to create a brand new UX on the industry scale, how to grow a startup to a market leader, how to create a custom digital ERP system that can be easily scaled for 600+ company branches or affiliates, or how to make app users buy three times more often.
The web and mobile app development services are most wanted by our new clients.
The QA services are much in demand, especially for large-scale projects where reliability, availability, and security are of vital importance such as finance apps or corporate apps. Test automation is an often-requested service provided by our QA team.
From the very start of our communication with a potential client, we dive into the client’s business and start contributing suggestions. This may refer to reducing development costs (for example, Futter allows saving up to 40%), industry-specific UX solutions that can boost conversion rates, or proven DevOps practices that can speed up releases. Our analysts collect all business requirements to form the project specification as a guide for the whole team. In the course of the project, we provide our clients with a stable team and PM as the main point of contact. We communicate the project progress and prospects on a regular basis, provide the client with access to all project-related resources, and document all approaches and updates. In short, we care for maximum transparency and comfort for the client. After release, we can either continue with the product support and further development (including handing users’ feedback and star ratings in the stores), or transfer it to the client’s team.

From time to time, we've worked on one-off research and development projects for specific technical issues related to Android. We've had them research private application program interfaces [APIs], hidden elements, or how a specific phone would work in a specific environment.

We initially only worked on Android applications. Surf didn't have iOS expertise at the beginning of our relationship. We'd had some bad experiences developing for this operating system, and I wish they had development capabilities from the start.

Мobile App Development For Fintech Startup
Review Summary
Our platform offers customer journey analytics & omnichannel communications for banking products.
We already had the backend and the API and had also launched a desktop web interface. All Surf had to do was build a mobile app.
First, the design and functionality of our platform had to be adjusted to fit a mobile app.
Then, a cross-platform mobile app had to be built with Flutter.
We’ve successfully launched the first version of the app and tested it out on a few of our clients. The clients were actually very pleased with the functionality and usability of the app. Now we’re scaling the app up to accommodate all of our users.

Mobile App Dev For Business Process Automation
Review Summary
Our operations staff can fill out checklists or write reports and submit them for review straight away. They don’t even need to be on a computer — all of it can be done on their phone right in the workshop.
Heads of different functions can review reports and create summary sheets based on that data. They can also allocate tasks manually or automatically and keep an eye on the progress. Whenever a new task appears, an employee receives a push notification.
The app is powered by a cross-platform technology — Flutter — so it works on both Android and iOS devices.
Our collaboration has been very efficient and fruitful. Surf has an excellent way of interacting with clients: no matter what stage it was — development or rollout to production — we were always aware of what was going on and what to expect. The team took all of our comments into account and was ready for discussion whenever we needed it.
The company kept proving they have extensive technical expertise. For instance, they suggested we use Flutter, which saved us roughly 30% of the budget.

What is it about the company that you appreciate the most?
Proactivity and enormous technical skills. Surf often anticipated our questions and suggested improvements to the project even before the idea hit us. Moreover, Surf has got extremely savvy experts and a huge experience. They don't just develop an app — they suggest ways to improve or optimize the whole process. For one, they suggested introducing a BYOD (bring your own device) concept — employees installed the app on their own smartphones which saved us the trouble of buying corporate mobile devices.
What was it about the company that you didn't like which they should do better?
I hope Surf remains as skillful as they are because IT technologies seem to evolve in quantum leaps. Right now it’s a great pleasure to collaborate with Surf. It’s been very efficient, and I can only wish the team to keep up the good work!
UI/UX design for Retail Chain Mobile App
Review Summary
Together with Surf we have been working on this app for over 5 years, constantly upgrading it.
At first it was a simple app the main goal of which was to digitize the loyalty program. Basically, it meant that instead of plastic cards customers would be able to use a virtual loyalty card in their app.
Then we kept adding new features to the app: personal coupons and offers, quick search for promos and sales at nearest supermarkets.
Recently we’ve added a valuable function — a payment service Magnit Pay. Now the users can add funds to their accounts in the app and then use it to pay for the goods getting more bonuses and discounts.
What we’re striving to do is expand the capabilities of the loyalty program and gradually turn the app into a super app.

Surf is the first and only company we have partnered with in mobile development. As soon as we started discussing the project, it became clear that Surf is the best choice in terms of resources and process management. The company had everything we needed: designers and expertise in both front-end and back-end development.
In addition, we quickly came to a complete understanding of how the final product was supposed to look and function. Therefore, we had no need to look for other contractors.
Surf has provided us with a video streaming service, giving our users access to more than 40 shows.
We have implemented many additional features for users: they can subscribe to their favorite actors and comedians, get access to exclusive content or paid previews of the shows a week before their official premiere.
The mobile app is developed with the Flutter framework. This helped us shorten the time to market and launch the product as quickly as possible. With its help, it was possible to reduce the development time by 30%.
Surf has developed a platform with all the infrastructure: backend, CDN, and admin web interface to help manage content and monitor statistics.
We have successfully launched the MVP. Users like the UX and quality as well as how fast the player responds and downloads the videos. The definition is adjusted to the Internet speed, the videos are cached. The videos can also be streamed to a TV screen. The mobile application has a user-friendly interface.
