Our Client is a chartered accountant and a seasoned accounting professional. His thirty years’ experience as a financial director for a number of companies allowed him to form a clear idea of what a financial reporting application should look like. After trying every possible system available on the market at that time and finding none that could completely meet his requirements, he decided to build an ‘ideal’ application that would be able to solve the tasks other accounting software couldn’t. He defined the needed functionality and a lot of his colleagues in the community supported his ideas. This was the first set of requirements that we saw when we met with him.
During quite a long business analysis stage, we tried to present the application in its entirety and in the smallest detail, understand how users would interact with it, think over all possible scenarios, and, most importantly, exceptional situations. All these findings were presented in the form of graphic design with an intuitive UX. Our engineers designed the technical architecture of the solution. Our goal was to come up with a solution that would not require significant investments at the start (after all, it went about a startup that started from scratch), would be scalable, allow working with a large amount of data, and would not require expensive support in the future. And it looks like we’ve done it!
After three months, we made the POC, and the system started to attract the attention of potential customers. After another six months, the MVP was ready, and the system had its first users and investors. And now, after a year and a half of hard but interesting work, the first release of the system is available. Currently, the team continues developing and adding new features to the workable and stable application which already has got great feedback from its first customers.
