BACKSTAGE

The application development process flows more active and fast if it is properly organized. Our company uses the latest technology for brainstorming, sharing experiences and ideas. Thanks to this, our teams are so effective and efficient.

Cooperation with other teams and clients also allows to share experiences and make the necessary changes to ready-made solutions, as a fresh look allows to identify small bugs and errors
Team Brainstorming
The brainstorming sessions help our engineers to find a really innovative solution. They stimulate creative activity and each participant has an opportunity to offer as many options as possible, including the most fantastic ones. It helps to hit the necessary ideas and solutions.
Dev Meeting
After finishing a large part of the work we conduct team discussions and arrange feedback sessions. Thanks to exchanging opinions and emerging ideas, our developers find truly innovative solutions, improving their personal efficiency and the efficiency of the entire team.

Internal Communication Flow

The process of internal communication is the basis for successful completion of the task. Working on the project, we use the most convenient ways of setting and monitoring tasks. For this project, Trello was chosen, as it is ideal for projects of such complexity and duration. In addition, Skype was used to solve simple issues, which also allows holding short conferences and discussions in real time.

Project Management Methodology

Scrum was chosen as one of the most effective application development methodologies to date. The numerous advantages of this methodology make it effective and convenient. In addition, the use of Scrum increases the productivity of the whole team, allows to easily and quickly identify errors in the work, slipping on time and to eliminate them. Dividing the development process into stages with short periods and daily reports makes the task execution easy and quick. Scrum also managed to prove its efficiency and productivity for performing urgent tasks with short sprints and tight deadlines. It allows not only to accelerate all processes, but also to save the customer’s funds.
