Client profile

Gentoo Labs, a client of ours, is an educational technology company that helps students prepare for professional and licensure exams. They currently have 40+ applications in the iOS and Android Marketplace, and are providing course materials for the NREMT-EMT, CCRN, NCLEX-RN and ASVAB Military Entrance Test, to mention a few. They offer separate applications for each exam to make it convenient for students who wish to focus just on the course material that is important to them.

Requirements

Our client wanted to reduce the amount of time taken to create an application for every competitive exam and, in turn, reduce the development cost. They wanted to step up the performance and UI/UX of their apps to be more intuitive and blazing fast. To cater to the users with connectivity issues, they wished to add offline support to their apps. To make the learning experience more playful and engaging, they wanted to add gamification features to their app.

Solution

After carefully analyzing the requirements of our clients, we suggested that they hire an iOS developer, an Android developer, and a Full Stack Web Developer to work with an onsite business analyst. The web developer created a self-service application that can be used by anyone on a team to configure the app and generate the bundle without writing a single line of code. This was a huge hit, and it saved our client a fortune in development costs.

The iOS and Android developers collaborated to come up with a uniform and efficient architecture that would handle large volumes of data. The course contents would be fetched from web services hosted in AWS. The apps also got their new and sheen UI/UX that along with the gamification features, was a huge hit among their mobile app users. The team also developed a marketing website for Gentoo using Angular.

The satisfaction of our clients is what keeps us in business

“We had a hard time finding the right talent in our local market that fits our budget. So we decided to outsource and partner with ZydeSoft. They provided us with excellent developers at an affordable price, helping us significantly reduce our overall development costs. We've been working with them since 2015, and they've always been prompt and attentive to our needs. We hope to continue our partnership for the foreseeable future.”

“It has been great working with ZydeSoft. They spent a good amount of time understanding our needs and provided us with top-quality developers who were a great fit for our team, both technically and culturally. We were able to quickly scale up our team from one developer to a team of ten, which would have taken us months and cost a lot more if we had used the traditional way of hiring.“
