ASSIST Raised Funds to Support “Casa lui Patrocle” Animal Shelter

This month, ASSIST Software raised funds to support the 200 dogs from the "Casa lui Patrocle" animal rescue shelter. As you might have guessed, we have many animal lovers in our company, so we had many enthusiastic volunteers that were happy to help with this cause. 

This event was important to us as we believe it is imperative to speak up and give a helping hand to man’s best friends. We wanted to support the noble initiative of “Casa lui Patrocle”, which seeks to save unwanted stray dogs and encourages the local community to help with this cause. 

Employees from our company donated money in order to buy the needed medicine, food, toys, and blankets for the dogs.  After this, we organized a visit to the rescue shelter to deliver the items we bought and to spend some time with the dogs.

Our colleagues that volunteered for this trip were impressed to see that all of them were harmless, peaceful, very playful and loveable. For a few hours, we disconnected from work and simply petted and played with all of the dogs. 

By spending time at the rescue shelter, we learned about the dogs’ stories and that they all deserve to know what a loving family means. Even though they had been rescued, the dogs from the shelter were still seeking love and stability.  

We realized that the dogs have suffered and that kindness, patience, and determination are needed in order to make a change in the lives of these abandoned dogs. We express our gratitude to the "Casa lui Patrocle" rescue shelter and promise to further support their cause!

We also express our sincere thanks to everyone that was involved in this charity campaign!

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.  

SAFe provides a structured approach for aligning teams, coordinating work, and delivering value at scale. It focuses on collaboration, communication, and continuous delivery for optimal custom software development services. 

5. How do I choose the best collaboration model with ASSIST Software?  

We offer flexible models. Think about your project and see which models would be right for you.   

  • Dedicated Team: Ideal for complex, long-term projects requiring high continuity and collaboration.   
  • Team Augmentation: Perfect for short-term projects or existing teams needing additional expertise.   
  • Project-Based Model: Best for well-defined projects with clear deliverables and a fixed budget.   

Contact us to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each model.
