Mobile app development

Over a relaxed call or two, we’d like to hear as much as possible about your project
(fully NDA’d of course).

We’ll talk about:

• Your expectations
• Services you need
• Your vision

There are a few steps in this phase:

• We’ll hand-pick a team based on your desired seniority level and other requirements.
• We’ll send you their CVs so you’ll know every engineer working for you.
• If necessary, we can set up interviews between you and every engineer.

Only when you’re 100% on board with our choice, we’ll go to the next phase.

If everything sounds good to you, we’re ready to get started.

Yes. In today’s environment, being agile is one of the most important things. Being agile doesn’t mean a lack of processes, but rather the opposite. Having good efficient processes and a strong working methodology helps us to be agile and at the same time organized and predictable.

As our client, you’ll have direct contact with each member of your development team. We use tools such as Slack, Jira, Confluence, e-mail, and videoconferencing to keep our clients up to date.

We have weekly and daily standups where you can participate together with our entire team, or even work with them directly during in-person visits.

This smooth and transparent communication without a middleman increases efficiency, gives you full control over the project, and guarantees that the product will match your expectations.

Back in 2014 we made our first production real-time chat using WebSockets.

Since then, we have moved on to ejabberd XMPP which has excellent support, both on the server and client side, making development and creating features like ‘seen’, ‘delivered’ and similar functionalities quicker and simpler.

But we don’t just use that. When working on the Fling app we actually worked directly with ProcessOne, the awesome guys who created ejabberd. They took care of the server side, while we in DECODE handled the client side. Later we also worked with Erlang Solutions XMPP platform MongooseIM and some other proprietary technologies.

As far as third-party services are concerned (where there isn’t so much room for hard-core modification) we have tried out TokBox, Twilio and Bandwidth, and used Sinch (a tool from the same category which also offers audio and video communication).

We can provide you with any number of IT experts you need from our team of 70+ people.

The benefits of hiring a dedicated team for your project are numerous. The most obvious one is saving money and time. There’s no need for you to go through the long hassle of an expensive hiring process and maintenance of your employees. The time and money you saved can be redirected to other activities in your company.

Other benefits are

• You gain access to niche professionals 
• You get quick development cycles and better collaboration 
• You get a focused team
• The team is flexible

If the UX and UI design of the app are not seamless and pixel-perfect, all the hard-core engineering efforts will fall short. All your marketing work will be for nothing too if you have a high churn rate caused by bad user experience.

The most common reason for the failure of a software project is because vendors don’t keep their promises, over-promise or just vanish in the middle of the process.

Normally right when you need them most. Our main goal is to be your long-term partner, and to grow with you. You can rely on us, rain or shine.

We are committed to long-term gigs and we are investing ourselves in those partnerships. Therefore, we work on small number of projects simultaneously. We don’t jump from client to client and we don’t over-stretch by running too many projects at once.

We stick with our long-term clients so they always get our full attention, and don’t start something if we’re not sure that we can deliver all our promises.

If we decide to take your gig, you can be sure we are totally committed.
