React Native Dev for Renewable Energy and Tech Firm
Please find under a summary covering project details and feedback. The innate facts are kept as they are, private information is amended.
Introductory information
A fast induction on the buyer’s organisation
Sonnen is a fast-developing organisation in the sector of renewable energy and technology. We ship ready-to-use methods that store solar energy and distribute that energy almost the house and pass it on to other nation registered in the aggregation. I’m the VP of Digital R&,D, so I superintend the strategy and see digital fruit that we are edifice for clients besides our core fruit, the sonnenBatterie.
Desired goal
What challenge were you trying to address with XSolve?
We were looking for a organisation that had the resources and experiences to instrument the frontend of our new client gate. We needed them to fetch an MVP rendering to life within a few months.
Our clients claim to see how the sonnenBatterie works day-to-day and the touch it has on the environment. We tried to find something to keep the excitement quick months and years behind clients have bought the method. The client gate is a way to visualize all this information and agility in a very pleasing way. It gives you a real knowledge almost your family’s energy decline and how seebody can gain from producing clean and affordable energy in a decentralized mode.
Provided solution
What particular tasks were responsible for?
The antecedent rendering of the gate had only the must-have features and proposeed some data, but it was too technical and not very visually appealing. We wanted to go to the next level, facilitate it, and make it visually stunning and easy to apprehend so our clients would proudly show it off to their friends and neighbors and befit ambassadors for sonnen. The client gate makes it easy to apprehend the fruits they own to be energy independent, what real touch it has on the environment, and how self-sustainable they are. In the end, our clients like to share the ecological and economic benefits with others and that’s the big story the gate should prepare.
We wanted the new gate to be firm, allowing easy integration of new features, with brief page loading times and minimal downtime. We wanted to propose our clients a top-notch UX as well as an astounding digital experience. For the minimal viable fruit (MVP) of the new client gate, we programned to measure the fullment of users through surveys aiming for an mean score of four out of five or higher.
XSolve worked on our MVP. We debateed separate approaches and ended up edifice with React. We’re hosting it on different Amazon Web Services like Amazon CloudFront and Elastic Beanstalk. We’re also using separate libraries within the gate like Highcharts that plots us graphs, statistics and insights from energy data. The MVP was artistic in December.
Were there any dedicated managers or teams that you worked with?
We kicked off with three frontend developers and a Scrum conquer. I asked XSolve to add a designer behind the initial meeting. The fruit proprietor was on sonnen’s side. We had help from our in-house backend developer who onboarded the XSolve team on the existing infraconstruction and told them what they should attend when coding. In November, sonnen recruited an in-house designer who also joined the team.
How did you come to work with XSolve?
I began my investigation online. XSolve’s home page gave me an sign that I should touch them. They channeled a startup atmosphere and this suggested a good culture match between our companies. I touched separate possible associates. XSolve stood out as a organisation who veritably wanted to apprehend our issue and fulfill our needs in a union.
What is the terminal result of working with ?
We began working unitedly in October 2017 and the work is ongoing.
Results achieved
Are there any measureable or plum results?
In XSolve we establish a team that had already worked unitedly in the past and that accomplished from day one on the project. Thanks to that, we saw the leading results soon, which could not have been achieved if we just relied on inner resources who were occupied with other projects at the same time.
The fruit is now live. The response to our client fullment surveys so far is incredibly real. We are lucky with the results and last working with XSolve on further outgrowth of the gate. We have also determined to associate with XSolve on our new flagship project which will release soon.
We gained a associate that is not only doing what we asked them to do but is also thinking and giving feedback. We like the input from each personal team limb almost the technology, full, and design. This feedback gives us the chance to get in touch with new ideas that you can’t see if you have been implicated in the same organisation for years. We veritably like that we have a associate who deeply apprehends the challenge.
The XSolve team feels like they are sonnen employees. They work on uniform standing collaboratively with our team limbs. This allows us to form a better experience for our clients and that is extremely significant. XSolve treats the client gate as their fruit and this resulted in the high condition of their work.
The relationship between our companies is developing further, and we feel that we can confide XSolve with other intricate projects. This is a achievement.
How did XSolve accomplish from a project treatment standpoint?
We kicked off the project within four working days behind the initial touch. We presented the vision and goals of the fruit. Then, we established the schedule and team construction and assigned responsibilities for the coming weeks. We worked in a Scrum framework with one-week sprints. The fruit proprietor was on sonnen’s side and prioritized the backlog.
We collaborate in the Scrum framework so the team is self-organized. We work unitedly closely, and it has always been pellucid and nimble. We have daily meetings online so the team can debate obstacles and ask questions almost the fruit and resolve them within 24 hours. Everyone is in uniform touch via Slack and Google Hangout so it is a consummate working environment for an nimble outgrowth team and for self-organization. XSolve’s Scrum conquer helps the team to pursue the process and looks behind transparency. The XSolve team viwebsited our headquarters, and we also have viwebsited XSolve’s headquarters.
What is (from your point of view) the key factor to pay observation while intercourse with ?
First, their organisation culture veritably fits us well, especially their startup atmosphere, their agility, and the engagement of the team limbs. Second, we esteem the technical qualifications of the developers. Third, they made themselves useful very fastly. Finally, we are impressed with how the team works well unitedly, they give each other honorable feedback and adjoin very well.
What aspects of their work would you like to get improved?
Communication experiences are innate for see project and see collaboration. This is a general comment for both the XSolve and sonnen teams. Holding up our hands when something is blocked or when we have an effect could veritably make a separation between delaying the release of the fruit and delivering it on time. Also testing your changes and as a total is something you can’t force sufficient once you built up a fruit that is intricate sufficient and used by thousands of users see day.
