Review Summary
We a good feeling with Zealous from the beginning. They were very interested in the project and we felt that they understood the requirements to 100%. The offer was competitive and we were proven right with our decision during the project. The developers working on the project were capable and were also looking for improvements in the user flow. Finally we even had some changes to the original plan but were not charged for these additional works by Zealous. Even tough delivery took longer than expected we are very happy with the outcome and can highly recommend Zealous.
What is it about the company that you appreciate the most?
Very good discussions from the beginning on. Focus on functionalities and easy administration.
What was it about the company that you didn't like which they should do better?
Due to internal changes, the delivery of our project was delayed. However, everything has been communicated with us so we were always fine with the delay.

Zealous System Executive Interview
Pranjal Mehta
Managing Director, Operations
Please introduce your company and give a brief about your role within the company?
An award-winning Microsoft Certified Gold Partner, Zealous System was established in 2008, with an aim to passionately mine technology and delve deeper, and it now has global presence. We are a trusted technology leader in Software Development and IT Consulting Services, having expertise in Web and Mobile App Development for various industries. We strive to deliver full-scale business solutions for the Web, Desktop, and Mobile Application advancement by unlocking the capability of its client's vague ideas and turning their imagination into a reality.
Being the Managing Director and the CEO of the organisation, my role is to direct my team strategically towards 100% attainment of the goals aligning with the organisation’s philosophy. We work as a team at Zealous System, and I ensure that through my support, I can drive them, and eventually the organisation towards growth and holistic development. My role demands complete scrutiny at the operations side, which I believe is at the heart of any organisation.

My role demands complete scrutiny at the operations side, which I believe is at the heart of any organisation.
What was the idea behind starting this organization?
The only purpose I wanted to fulfil when I started this organisation was to bridge the void in the way the companies approach services. Being passionate about technology and having served in the services’ industries for a long time, providing just services and providing solution-oriented services is stark different, and not all companies aim for the latter. Also, the freelancers, as they are present in abundance, have somehow made a poor reputation of business approach, which I have dealt at many levels while connecting with clients. I started Zealous System with the only aim to provide best-in-class solutions and not just services. I envisioned an ecosystem wherein problems were addressed in a wholesome way, and not in bits and pieces as the freelancers operate, and that’s what we have been doing for 10 years now.
What are your company’s business model–in house team or third party vendors/ outsourcing?
We have a huge talented in-house team of experts – Developers, Designers, Business Analysts, Quality Engineers, Project Managers, and Marketing Specialists.
How is your business model beneficial from a value addition perspective to the clients compared to other companies' models?
We are consultants first, and passionate-at-heart developers and designers later. Talking about value addition, we do impart the knowledge of our know-how of technology and trends to our clients, and transform their ideas into cement-strong businesses. Our solutions cater to both, entrepreneurs as well as medium-to-large scale organisations, adding worth and substance at each and every stage of development of their projects.
What industries do you generally cater to? Are your customers repetitive? If yes, what ratio of clients has been repetitive to you?
We cater to all the industries in general, but education, public sector, retail, automotive, finance, and government are our focus areas. Yes, we have 80% repetitive clients as we have an in-house team that can cater to their requirements whenever need be. We pay highest regards to client satisfaction, and that’s the reason why we have been able to retain majority of our clients over the years.
Mention the objectives or the parameters critical in determining the time frame of developing a mobile app.
While there is no specific formula to determine the time frame needed in developing a mobile app, there are a couple of parameters – Number of Platforms & OS support, App Design, Security, Resource Availability, Third-Party Integrations, and overall complexity of app, which help us arrive at about 80% accurate time frame.
How much effort in terms of time goes into developing the front end and back end of a mobile app?
This again depends on the complexity of an app. But, if we take an average app (having 8-10 screens) for example, then it should take between 15 days to 1 month, depending on the resource availability, number of features/screens, and amount of work required for each feature/screen.
What are the key parameters to be considered before selecting the right platform for a mobile application?
Well, there are a lot of factors/parameters that need to be taken into account when choosing a development platform to go with. If we talk about the key parameters, then the first one would be the Target Audience of the app, followed by Market Share, Demographics, Features & Functionalities, and of course, Development Cost.
Which platform do you suggest your clients to begin with when they approach you with an idea (Android or iOS) and why?
Considering the fact that almost all clients want to develop apps that generate revenue, we recommend to go with iOS platform first mainly because of the quality users. Also, one survey found that on average, iPhone apps make 75% more money than Android, despite Google Play market share being 4 times bigger than iOS.
Android or iOS, Native or Hybrid — which platform is best to use to build your app? What are your recommendations?
This usually depends on the client’s preference. If App Performance is a top priority, then we recommend going Native. However, if the native app development cost doesn’t fit client’s budget, then Cross-platform can be just as fine as long as the app requirement is not too complex.
What are the key factors that you consider before deciding the cost of a mobile application?
The key factors we consider before deciding the cost of a mobile application are Scope of Work, Design, Features, Timeline and Complexity
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.)
When it comes to payment structure, we are flexible with it. But mostly we have 3 major structures; Fixed cost (Pay per feature, Pay per milestone), Monthly (Fixed Monthly Payment for each developer hired) & Time & Material (Payment as per features and milestone)
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?
Yes, we only accept projects that are above $5000 in budget. However, we would be happy to consider a project below this budget if the client is B2B and has long-term goals.
What is the price range (min and max) of the projects that you catered to in 2017?
The price range of the projects that we catered to in 2017 – Minimum $13 USD per hour & Maximum $30 USD per hour.
Which business model do you suggest to your clients enabling them to generate revenue from mobile applications? Why?
Well there are different revenue generation models available, so depending on the nature of the mobile app, we suggest various revenue generation models to our client.

Reliable, Focused and Accurate
Review Summary
Commitment and performance have been the most impressive aspect of the zealous system. I have been dealing with them for more than 10 years and have not had any occasion to complain. They have taken care of my projects & have been available round-the-clock. I strongly recommend a zealous system.

Solid Support
Review Summary
Project management is thorough, clean and clear. Often under promise on delivery schedules and then over deliver leaving plenty of time to buffer when things go wrong. Couldn't ask for a better partnership.

Great Remote Development
Review Summary
I have run several of developments with Zealousys over a number of years including: a Google maps based interface giving breadcrumb trails of logistics activities, a unity Audio/visual game for both iphone and android, and a web development analysing chemicals. All done well with a dev supported by an architect/analyst, timely and great value. I will keep coming back.

Excellent value; long-term partner
Review Summary
MCNY contracted Zealous in 2019 to develop an internal web application to speed up and improve transfer credit evaluations. The old process was slow and inconsistent; our new web application makes it take less time and less effort, and the outcome is much cleaner. Their turnaround times are quick at a fraction of the cost of US-based developers.
We've since had them add additional capabilities and plan to continue using them for future project. We're very happy to have found a dependable, affordable software development provider.

Awesome, helpful team
Review Summary
Zealous has worked with us closely to develop our app. They were always professional, patient (when we didn't know what we needed), and positive about the whole process. We had no idea what we were doing, most of the time - but the team at Zealous did ... and they made the effort to get us where we needed to be with their skills and expertise. I would highly recommend them.
