If you're like Jason from TrailView, you find searching for a software developer "pretty stressful" because of the "horror stories" of developers doing some pretty shady stuff. Or maybe, like Robert, you would say, "I view the relationship with a developer on a project like this as inherently personal."
Rather than risking your investment, experience that of an IT director I worked for who said, "He is one of the most knowledgable, dedicated, and hard working individuals I have met in my 33 years in the IT industry."
Imagine yourself being able to move on to starting your project rather than contacting lots of people and trying to determine if any of them are competent to complete your project.
Instead, see yourself at the end of your project saying, as Robert did, "Eric was great to work with personally. He is very reliable, honest, and creatively turned our design requirements into something workable and usable."
With 16 years as a business and decades of experience in analyzing the processes people use in completing work, I will quickly understand what you want to build and then provide you with a plan for getting that done. As Jason pointed out in talking to "3 other developers... No one seemed to grasp my idea." For several years now, he has had a successful money-making mobile app, developed by Software Prophets who understood and improved on his ideas.
We've worked with a billion dollar jewelry company, manufacturers and retail businesses. We've also worked with people yet to incorporate. We do fully custom software development in Java, Kotlin, Angular, and React, with modern databases like MongoDB and traditional ones like MySQL, Oracle, PostreSQL and others. We build web applications and mobile apps to your specifications.
Do what Jason and Robert did and see for yourself what we can do for you. Visit our website and click the "Build Your App" button to book a call. Let's get to work on your development needs!

During this assignment Eric contributed to the development and support of many of our internal web applications.

During our time working together it became evident to me that Eric is constantly updating his skill set and is in tune with the latest in industry trends.
Eric not only assisted in upgrading these systems to a more modern technology stack, but he also mentored and trained our staff in the use of these tools. As opportunities arose, Eric introduced improvements in functionality and refactored code to his standard of quality.

Eric was the only resource we worked with.

BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
I an a contractor who had an idea for a mobile app
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Software Prophets, and what were your goals?
I had an idea fo a offroad based Mobile App. I hired Eric at Software Prophets to basically bring my idea to life. With.nearly zero technical and computer experience I was at a loss before speaking to Software Prophets. Eric was (and still is) very patient with my tech handicap and makes amazing things happen with the app he created for me.
My goal was to bring a app to market that was both helpful to users and profitable for myself. Mission accomplished! Software Profits listened to my ideas, visions and dreams of this mobile app, brought it to reality and has been supporting it ever since.
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
This was a very tough decision for me as it not only represented the bulk of my life savinga but also the idea itself was very important to me. While working our way to an initial proposal Eric was very patient with my lack of technical experience while spending alot of time sorting through my idea of what this project looked like in my head. He was clearly very knowledgeable bit also passionate about the project and the idea. Also the initial price seemed very fair and Software Prophets have continued to be diligent, passionate and fair with the continued support of the app.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
Software Prophets has handled every aspect of TrailView from initial development to its current version. They have handled everything including necessary apple and Android updates, requested improvements and upgrades, technical support, server access, etc. I also receive top notch advice, ideas and future vision from the company. Priceless
How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
Nearly all of my interactions are with the owner Eric. He also put me in touch with an overseas company that helps with some coding. Eric works as a mediator to help with the language barriers (English and technical)
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
The out come was everything I had hoped for. The app works great! We have many happy users and have seen nice profits. Software Prophets has taken my idea and turned it into a reality. The app has continued to grow along with our customer base.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
Eric's management style is amazing. Questions and concerns are dealt with immediately day or night. He will give you honest advice yet do things your way even if he disagrees. Makes things happen in a hurry!
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
Honestly tgos company has impressed me every step of the way. The skills and knowledge are amazing along with a top notch work ethic. Projects seem to start the same day as conception. Questions will come across my email at night and during weekend showing an amazing dedication to the projects.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
I.truly have zero complaints or suggestions.
