We develop mobile apps to engage Christian communities and help churches to connect closely with their members. I am the founder of this startup company which commenced operation in mid-2020.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Lloyds Design?

We employed Lloyds for designing an interactive platform (with a content management system) as a unique feature that we will make available to our clients who are Churches and Christian communities wanting to outsource building and basic maintenance of their mobile apps. We have the built-in multi-lingual capacity in this project to suit individual clients’ needs.

What were your goals for this project?

App development platform is a cost-effective way for churches and Christian communities to explore enhancing their communications with members through mobile apps. The goal for this project is to allow users of the apps to interact on this platform through creating posts, as well as react and respond to them, so they will become more engaged in their churches and Christian communities.

SOLUTION

How did you select Lloyds Design?

Referral from our app hosting platform.

Describe the project in detail.

At the start of the project, we introduced the concept and nature of the platform we wish to develop as well as ideas about its ideal look and potential functions were discussed in detail.

With the feedbacks and technical insights provided by Lloyds, the project began to take shape as we put together initial prototypes. Improvements and refinements of the platform were made after multiple rounds of discussion until the platform was eventually completed.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

The successful development of this platform contributes greatly to the progress of the overall app development, as the platform is one of the unique features of our apps and the most technically demanding part of the entire development process.

Quite effective, especially as we utilized different means of communication to facilitate the process. Lloyds often provides quick turnaround on improvements and modifications. And they were very accommodative when we need to take time to consider our options.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Lloyds was willing to give us a lot of practical advice to us, as our company does not have staff with technical expertise in full-fledged programming for app features, and to help us throughout the entire process to turn ideas into actual user features. In case of technical problems, they were responsive and issues were usually quickly resolved.
