In 2015 we asked our prospective Clients to name the most stressful aspects of mobile app development.
Time and time again we heard of their previous projects plagued with cost overruns, scope creeps, delays, lack of transparency and poor communication.
We founded Appino back in 2011 to banish all the annoyances when developing mobile apps. We have spent the last 5 years tirelessly refining our processes to ensure each and every engagement is as stress free as possible.
Our goal is to be an invaluable and resourceful part of our Clients development ambitions. To help them to achieve all of their objectives in the most cost effective and seemless way possible.
Find out what the top 6 stresses were and how we banish them once and for all!
Appino banishes Scope Creep & Cost Overrun by measuring twice and cutting once. Every engagement starts with meticulous Requirements Analysis which ensures every element of the proposed system is carefully weighed and measured from the onset.
By working on a fixed-cost basis and defining the scope accurately, we can ensure there are no hidden surprises during the engagement.
We believe that documentation is just as important as the end result. By keeping meticulous documentation throughout the engagement we ensure knowledge gained during development process can be transferred directly to our Clients.
Our meticulous record keeping and documentation procedures ensures that every step of the development process is clearly drafted for future reference.
Our Clients have access to a secure project management portal that enables each stakeholder to see exactly what our team is working on an hourly basis. Our Clients are welcome to be a part of our engineers’ daily/weekly stand-up meetings and scrums.
Appino can provide, upon request, daily AGILE Scrum updates, to ensure that our Clients are a
part of the development process.
We don’t expect our Clients to have to ‘test’ the systems we develop. Appino conducts meticulous Unit and Quality Assurance testing within the development of every agile sprint to ensure User Acceptance Testing is exactly just that!
Developing clean, reliable and efficient coding ensures that the cost of maintaining applications post-deployment are reduced to a minimal. Many of our apps have continued to function without any maintenance, 3 years on from original deployment.
Missed deadlines are missed opportunities. At Appino every project is carefully broken down into small manageable Agile sprints of 15 days. At the end of each sprint is a Client demonstration which ensures that the project is always on track throughout the engagement.
Our diligent project managers ensure that every milestone is delivered on-time and expectations are managed every step of the way.
Communication is critical for the overall success of every engagement. We pride ourselves on our ability to take the most complex development concepts and explain them in simple, easy to understand terms.
All of our developers and consultants speak plain english and talk in terms all our Clients can understand. We are open and honest and believe in providing our Clients with unparalleled levels of transparency.
Our goal is to alleviate all the stresses and frustrations out of software development and enable our Clients to focus on what they do best. Our responsibly goes beyond simply developing software but ensuring our Clients expectations are managed throughout the project life cycle and beyond.
