how do they work
Project Resources
I need additional support in a project
SwissHelios can help us with specialists in different fields: define needs, create a software strategy, propose solution concepts, write specifications, prepare mock-ups, test and maintain programs or user experience testing - just as needed. They would invoice the specific resource required for the time required.
What is in it for ME?
This gives us more flexibility, helping us finish programs on time and within budget or even run more projects.
Dedicated Resources
I need to extend my team, temporarily or permanently
If we need additional competence or capacity over a period of time, then SwissHelios can provide them at a cost fitting our budget.
What is in it for ME?
Their programmers stay 5 times longer than average offshore programmers. They must treat them well. If required individuals we know and who get to know us could become real virtual web development team members for long, without adding head count. They work in a creative development environment with people around to ask if required and with backups. We would be more efficient and competitive as a group, finish projects earlier and on time.
First Steps
How would we get going in a project?
SwissHelios would work with us to really understand what we want to achieve and in what way before engaging in programing – thoroughly and efficiently.
What is in it for ME?
This will help us cost- and time-wise, provide some peace of mind and have us benefit from their experience and creativity.
Project Management Approach
How would they work in a project?
SwissHelios are flexible. They can work with us whether we decide to go with classic “Waterfall” methods or agile ones or keep them out of project management. Their role in running projects depends on what makes most sense to reach objectives.
What is in it for ME?
Pragmatic – we can decide on how we collaborate the way it makes most sense to us, thus reaching our objectives in the safest, fastest and most economical way possible.
Sourcing Services
Where do they source?
Off-shore, near-shore, on-shore and combinations thereof - whatever makes sense. They can your software collaboration partner.
What is in it for ME?
We would get the best of many worlds, provided by a Swiss company, based upon a Swiss agreement.
Technologies they use
Planning & Collaboration
General Purpose Languages
They like the modernity of .Net, the ubiquity of Java and their web development team is closely working with the PHP community. They are geeky and love readable Python. They have done many pet projects in F# and Scala. They are a market leading solution provider.
Web Frameworks & CMS
ASP.Net and the LAMP stack are their favourite technologies. These technologies would offer us high quality developing most Web 2.0 and other solutions and, in combination with Software-Management and IT-Support, high availability over a long time.
Front End
They are considered as industry experts thank to the experience gained in front end web development, be it with in CSS, HTML, jQuery and React or be it with the latest JavaScript frameworks like AngularJS or Ext JS. This increases the probability of us finishing projects within budget and time. After all cost don’t depend on hourly rates only but also on number of hours needed. In addition we would get state of the art technology for the purpose and not just the one the developers happen to know.
Mobile
They have development specialists in both Android development & iOS development. Whether we would be doing a cross platform work in Xamarin or with platform-specific Xcode or Android Studio, they have got us covered. As a mobile development company, SwissHelios also offers Android App Consulting, iOS App Consulting and PhoneGap Consulting. Their experience could improve our chances of having an impact with our solution, above the level pure developers could.
Databases
SwissHelios have most of their work done on relational databases like SQL Server, Oracle and MySQL, but they also have expertise in Mongo and other document oriented databases. Their full spectrum IT consultancy could make them a partner also in heterogeneous environments.
DevOps
SwissHelios is a strong advocate of automated and continuous integration. The new versions of the solution is stressful enough, we don’t have to worry about interfaces not working.
They speak Ansible and Jenkins. They have a wide experience in setting up continuous integration and gated builds which gives me confidence that it would really work for us.
SaaS / PaaS
Whether it’s moving our system to a cloud based solution or taking advantage of the many large cloud services available, they have web app solutions for us.
I am confident SwissHelios can help us for all SaaS or PaaS based Solutions which includes everything from on premise app to Azure. Their web development team can help you decide and execute.
Internet of Things
Whether we have an idea for an embedded device or are prototyping the next wearable: They speak Raspberry Pi, Arduino where they have prototyped and implemented in a number of technologies like Bluetooth LE, NFC and others with their efficient software strategy and IT support. This could shorten our development cycle with all benefits associated with it.
E-Commerce
They love bringing value creators and consumers together! From one page storefronts to complex Brand.com implementations and user experience testing. Their thorough understanding of eCommerce could also improve our customer’s shopping experience and thus lead to higher sales through our electronic channel.
Specialised Software
They have their areas of expertise, but they tinker a lot. Sometimes long-time clients approach them with requests for specific technologies or a software strategy. This has led them to acquire some very specialized technologies like Demandware. We could talk to them about some of our more “exotic” projects and ideas.
their case studies
I understand they have done hundreds of applications over the past years. Let me understand how they work reading more about some of them.
