Sights Walker
The task was to create a mobile app that helps travelers find ways to the desired sights around the world, add places of interest to the map and provide information about them in descriptions, audio, video, and photo formats. Thus, users can share their traveling experiences with others. The key features are a “tour” and a set of points or “pins” on a map that form a route. We built this app from scratch, so the key to successful implementation was to go deeply into the idea of our client.

Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the CEO at a tech startup in Chicago. Our company uses Lean and Agile methodologies for product development. We deeply integrate marketing and customer feedback into the product development process.
For what projects/services did your company hire Light IT?
Initially, our company had a MVP. At the time, we had a small inhouse developer. So, after demonstrating the proof of concept, we decided to hire LightIT to build iOS and Android mobile apps that are scalable to a large number of users.
What were your goals for this project?
We wanted to release the beta version of our mobile app. Specifically, the product must be usable and user-friendly for our customers. Furthermore, the product must be maintainable and updatable for the future development.
How did you select this vendor?
Our company searched online on outsourcing websites for companies in Eastern European countries. We reached out and interviewed different outsourcing candidates. We picked the one who values in partnership building. Our company believe that long-term success depends on mutual understandings and ability to cooperate and adapt in the rapidly changing world.
Describe the project in detail.
Our company shared business requirements and legacy source code to LightIT. After LightIT investigates, we defined different milestones and versions of products. This helped us make incremental improvement over time in the Lean and Agile methodologies. The product went through many iteration of planning, development, testing and learning.
What was the team composition?
In the beginning, we only had backend and frontend developers. Later, we added QA and product manager. Most recently we had 1 backend dev, 2 iOS developers, 1 Android, 1 QA and 1 PM.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
We valued user feedback. So we continuously tested the alpha version of the product with our target users. We received positive feedback on product usability and user-friendliness. Please note that at the time of giving this review, this product was not fully released to the public yet.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
In the beginning, the communications was challenging due to the remote working environments between our company and LightIT. When project manager was assigned to the team, it initially slowed our product development. However, in the long-run PM helped clarify understanding between teams. We scheduled two meetings per week to talk over the phone. We communicated frequently on Slack. We also had tools to document business requirements, plan and estimate, and track progress and bugs, etc.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
LightIT has nice employees with humility. This is a foundation for building trust, which allows us to continuously improve together and adapt to changing environments. From the beginning, I had seen significant improvements on communications, problem solving skills and decision making process.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Building a high quality product within budget is always challenging. The team has demonstrated its ability to build a high quality product. However, we have a lot of rooms for improvement to control schedule and budget. We discussed many initiatives for Built-In Quality, and eventually testing would be everyone's job at every stage of the development.
