Interview & high-level requirements
You share your concept with us, and we analyze it against your business context, including the target market and competitors. Based on the findings, we create the initial requirements and a roadmap with early estimates.
UI/UX design & specifications
We create wireframes based on your audience's behavior patterns featuring the solution's design. Once you give the thumbs-up, we build the prototype and detailed specifications.
Development
We translate the requirements into tasks and divide them into bi-weekly sprints. We get down to development, keeping you in the loop with regular progress reports and demos of the implemented features.
Quality assurance
We test your solution at several levels to ensure seamless performance and cybersecurity posture. We run sprint tests, regression tests (from the second sprint onward), and integration tests.
Delivery & support
We make all the necessary preparations for a seamless product launch. We also keep improving your product post-release based on feedback, analytics, and your changing needs.
Frequently
Asked
Questions
If you are a small retailer, you probably don't have a software development team in-house. Outsourcing your project to an eCommerce development company can help you avoid the headache of hiring online store developers.
You can leverage the experience of experts already well-versed in eCommerce software development. This can result in a quicker time-to-market for your online store and lower investments.
While custom eCommerce development might require considerable upfront investment, it pays off in the long run.
With full control over the software, you can tailor it precisely to your needs, make it compatible with any software product, and scale it more easily as you grow. Plus, you can protect your customers' sensitive and financial data following specific cybersecurity requirements.
The market is full of solutions for basic eCommerce website development with little to no coding. Shopify, Magento, and WooCommerce are among the market leaders.
However, none of them can compare with custom retail software development. It allows you to build a unique branded shopping experience, distinguishing you from the competition.
Whether a web store or mCommerce development depends on the project requirements and deadline. These two factors will determine a tech stack, team composition and size, and budget — all of which influence the timeline.
A basic online store can be set up within a couple of weeks. But a complex eCommerce solution can take months to develop — not to mention subsequent maintenance and support.
Whether it comes to mobile eCommerce app development or building a website, we prioritize security above all.
First, we build our eCommerce solutions according to GDPR standards. Second, they all undergo a series of sprint tests (at the end of each sprint), regression tests (from the second sprint), and integration tests.
Third, we continue to fine-tune the cybersecurity of eCommerce solutions post-release and do regular data backups.
Absolutely!
Once we've done with eCommerce software development, we can integrate your new eCommerce solution with any service you choose to provide a holistic experience and ease maintenance and support. In particular, we do integrations with the apps for payment processing, shipping, loyalty program management, and beyond.
To establish the connection, we use various methods, including APIs, webhooks, SDKs, and others.
