The Challenge

Since the platform was already developed with a no-code solution - Bubble, its clients were expecting a similar approach for the new custom-developed platform.

Recognizing the client's preference for the no-code paradigm, the development team embraced the challenge of delivering a solution with the same user-friendly and adaptable characteristics, aiming to maintain the high standards set by the initial platform development.

They were expecting a top-notch platform, especially since most of their clients are big players in Fintech and Banking. The bar was set high, considering the standards in these industries. The team knew they had to deliver a quality platform that not only met but exceeded expectations. With the financial world being pretty demanding, they aimed to create something robust, secure, and innovative to tackle the unique challenges their clients face in Fintech and Banking.

As mentioned previously, the business area that the app activates comes with numerous cyber threats.

Recognizing the critical role security played in safeguarding the integrity of the system, a comprehensive approach was taken to fortify the platform against potential vulnerabilities and ensure the protection of confidential information.

At the same time, we and our clients wanted to keep the platform modern, as the implementation of AI was necessary for the best concept outcomes.

The Solution

To meticulously plan and cover all the details, we conducted a comprehensive discovery workshop. We navigated through the project's complexity, defining goals, outlining requirements, and establishing a roadmap for seamless execution. The collective insights gathered during this discovery workshop laid a solid foundation, ensuring a shared understanding among all participants and setting the stage for a well-informed and successful project implementation.

To streamline communication and ensure the smooth progress of the project, we took the proactive step of assigning a dedicated project manager. Beyond just communication, the project manager plays a crucial role in meticulously tracking and managing deliverables.

In our commitment to developing a high-quality custom enterprise software solution, we designated a dedicated Quality Assurance (QA) professional to meticulously monitor every aspect of the application. The goal is to grow confidence in the reliability and performance of the application, assuring end-users of a smooth and error-free experience.

We approached the development in two phases. The first focused on creating an MVP similar to their existing system, while the second phase introduced additional features based on client requests.

The Results

We successfully met the deadline for the first phase, benefiting from the clarity that characterized the project's initial stages. The clear understanding of requirements and objectives facilitated a smooth and timely delivery.

Additionally, the optimizations identified during the workshop proved instrumental in enhancing the platform's performance. The collaborative efforts and insights gained during the workshop not only streamlined the development process but also contributed to the overall optimization of the platform, resulting in improved efficiency and functionality.

The second phase took a bit longer because we had to figure things out through trial and error. The requirements kept changing to better fit the user's needs. It was a bit more time-consuming, but it allowed us to make sure the final product nailed what the users needed and wanted.

After reaching the second milestone, our clients achieved a significant breakthrough by successfully persuading a major bank to become a part of their platform. This accomplishment marked a pivotal turning point in their journey, underscoring the growing appeal and viability of their platform for prominent institutions. The partnership with a significant bank not only enhanced the platform's credibility but also opened doors to broader opportunities for collaboration and expansion.
