ASSIST Software: Cheering on Romanian Sports Excellence

ASSIST Software is a firm believer in fostering a healthy community. While we encourage employee well-being through internal initiatives, our support extends beyond office walls. We actively champion local and national sports performances, celebrating athletic achievements and healthy competition.

On March 26th, the crowd cheers echoed through Madrid's Wanda Metropolitano stadium as the Romanian National Football Team took the field against Colombia. This match was crucial in Romania’s preparation for EURO 2024, a chance for the team members to test their skills against strong competition. The event brought back memories of the National Team’s historic win against the same opponent in the 1994 World Cup, a game engraved in the minds of many Romanian fans.

The Romanian team displayed impressive skill, and the crowd erupted twice as Romania netted two goals. This exciting performance raised hopes for their upcoming game against Germany, showcasing their potential on the international stage. While the pressure of EURO 2024 is undoubtedly high, the Romanian team demonstrated their fighting spirit and determination, leaving fans optimistic about their future endeavors.

The ASSIST Software logo was shown on the screens surrounding the field during the match as a testament to our support. To further the fans' enthusiasm, we hosted a fun giveaway on Facebook. During the live broadcast on Antena 1, viewers who spotted our logo on the screens surrounding the field or those attending the match in person were invited to capture a picture and send it in! This simple yet effective strategy not only encouraged viewership but also boosted team spirit among fansThis wasn't a one-time display of our commitment. Last year, we stood behind the CSU Handball Team, whose talent and dedication propelled them to new heights. Their impressive victory in the Romanian Junior 2 Championship filled us with pride, and we were honored to be a part of their journey.

Another example of Romanian athletic performance is Andrei Gafita, whom we proudly supported. He has participated in many marching competitions, culminating in the World Race Walking Championship. His passion and perseverance embody the spirit we strive to celebrate.

We are incredibly proud of their accomplishments and wish them luck in future challenges!

We believe that strong bodies lead to strong minds and are committed to empowering our employees and local athletes to achieve their goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is ASSIST Software's development process?

The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) we employ defines the following stages for a software project. Our SDLC phases include planning, requirement gathering, product design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance.

2. What software development methodology does ASSIST Software use?

ASSIST Software primarily leverages Agile principles for flexibility and adaptability. This means we break down projects into smaller, manageable sprints, allowing continuous feedback and iteration throughout the development cycle. We also incorporate elements from other methodologies to increase efficiency as needed. For example, we use Scrum for project roles and collaboration, and Kanban boards to see workflow and manage tasks. As per the Waterfall approach, we emphasize precise planning and documentation during the initial stages.

3. I'm considering a custom application. Should I focus on a desktop, mobile or web app?

We can offer software consultancy services to determine the type of software you need based on your specific requirements. Please explore what type of app development would suit your custom build product.

A web application runs on a web browser and is accessible from any device with an internet connection. (e.g., online store, social media platform)
Mobile app developers design applications mainly for smartphones and tablets, such as games and productivity tools. However, they can be extended to other devices, such as smartwatches.
Desktop applications are installed directly on a computer (e.g., photo editing software, word processors).
Enterprise software manages complex business functions within an organization (e.g., Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)).

4. My software product is complex. Are you familiar with the Scaled Agile methodology?

We have been in the software engineering industry for 30 years. During this time, we have worked on bespoke software that needed creative thinking, innovation, and customized solutions.

Scaled Agile refers to frameworks and practices that help large organizations adopt Agile methodologies. Traditional Agile is designed for small, self-organizing teams. Scaled Agile addresses the challenges of implementing Agile across multiple teams working on complex projects.
