We came up with an idea for an App where you can record conversations and messages with someone else. Then later on use those conversations that you saved to have a simulated conversation with them, as if they were there. Another feature is the App allows you to keep important dates for reoccurring memories like Anniversaries and Birthdays.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

I had an idea for an app and tried a few companies but nothing seemed like a good fit until I found the appskateers. They turned my dream of an app into reality. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

I didn't have an app and now I have an app that people love. 

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

They did awesome. They brake down everything that needs to be done, registering with amazon, apple, google, creating a business, and everything. They made sure they fully understood the desired end result and helped me figure out what I wanted/ needed the app to do to get there. There was a large bug that took some time to resolve but they kept me informed the entire time and are quick to respond with any questions or issues.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

They can take an idea you have for an app and do everything that is needed to make it a real app.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Appsketiers could have done differently?

Not really. I got hung up a few times setting up the business part, but thats not really something they can streamline as every business's needs are differnt. But as they grow, maybe thats something they could incorporate, or maybe they could partner with a company that offers that as an extra service, that would save time.

Our collaboration with Appsketiers began with an initial pitch, where we explored the viability of our innovative game concept. Appsketiers quickly demonstrated their expertise by delivering a compelling mock-up design of the home screen and logo, accompanied by a short video advertisement that vividly captured the essence of the game's pitch. 

The project then advanced to the development phase, where Appsketiers' team skillfully tackled the intricate aspects of coding, user interface and user experience design, and the integration of multiplayer connectivity. This phase was crucial in transforming our concept into a playable game within an online environment. 

Throughout this journey, Appsketiers maintained a transparent and highly collaborative workflow, keeping us informed of progress, consulting us on challenges, and ensuring our vision was being realized at every step. 

Upon completion of the game, Appsketiers went above and beyond to facilitate a smooth launch. They proficiently set up the game on both Google and iOS mobile game stores, along with other essential platforms and domain sites needed to host the game. They also provided thorough guidance on managing these platforms, empowering us to take control and truly deliver the project we intended on bringing to life. 

Post-launch, Appsketiers' support continued as they encouraged ongoing improvement and refinement of the game based on player feedback. This approach has been instrumental in enhancing the gaming experience and ensuring the game remains in its optimal state for our audience. Our partnership with Appsketiers has been a testament to their commitment to excellence and their pivotal role in bringing our vision to life.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Appsketiers excelled in project management, demonstrating a meticulous and proactive approach throughout the development of the mobile game. Their ability to deliver on key milestones was commendable, with each phase of the project, from the initial mock-up designs and video advertisement to the full-scale development and eventual launch, completed efficiently and on schedule. 

Their responsiveness to needs and challenges was particularly noteworthy. Throughout the development process, Appsketiers maintained open lines of communication, providing regular updates and seeking input to ensure the game's development aligned with the envisioned concept. This collaborative spirit not only facilitated a smooth workflow but also fostered an environment where creative ideas and solutions could thrive, particularly when addressing unforeseen challenges. 

Furthermore, Appsketiers’ post-launch support was instrumental in the game's ongoing success, demonstrating their commitment to not just delivering a project, but ensuring its continued growth and improvement based on user feedback. This comprehensive approach to project management not only ensured timely delivery but also enhanced the overall quality and reception of the game.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What sets Appsketiers apart is their exceptional dedication to personal touch and genuine partnership in project collaboration. Their approach to regular communication was not just a process, but a commitment to building a relationship. 

The provision of a designated point of contact for managing the project ensured a seamless and highly personalized communication channel, making it feel less like a client-service provider interaction and more like a partnership working towards a common goal. This personal investment extended beyond mere project management. 

The enthusiasm and passion the Appsketiers team brought to the table were palpable, transforming the development process into a shared creative journey. They didn't just work on bringing the game idea to life; they were emotionally invested in its success and in realizing the vision as much as I was. This unique blend of professional expertise and personal commitment made the entire experience not only successful but also deeply rewarding.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Appsketiers could have done differently?

While Appsketiers delivered an exceptional service overall, one area that presents an opportunity for growth is their experience with projects of this specific scale and complexity in the gaming domain. Given that this was their inaugural venture into a game of this particular scope, there were natural learning curves encountered along the way. 

More familiarity with large-scale gaming projects could potentially streamline their processes, making them faster and more efficient. However, it's important to highlight their remarkable adaptability and willingness to learn throughout the project. 

Despite the initial challenges due to the novelty of the project's scale, Appsketiers demonstrated a commendable ability to adjust, absorb new knowledge, and implement solutions effectively, ultimately leading the project to a successful conclusion. This capacity to evolve and enhance their expertise is a testament to their commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction, laying a strong foundation for even greater achievements in future projects.
