In April 2023, ASSIST Software made its fifth consecutive appearance at the prestigious Hannover Messe trade fair, the world's leading industrial technology exhibition, bringing together thousands of exhibitors from various industries, including manufacturing, automation, energy, logistics, and digitalization. Hannover Messe serves as a platform for showcasing cutting-edge technologies, innovation, and business opportunities, while also facilitating networking, knowledge exchange, and collaboration among global industry professionals, policymakers, and stakeholders. 

It was an excellent opportunity for us to promote not only our custom software development services but also the company’s research and innovation activities carried out within the CounteR H2020 project. CounteR proposes to develop a software solution that combines cutting-edge technologies with a deep understanding of radicalization processes, aiming to support the fight against radicalization and prevent future terrorist attacks, while upholding the privacy and rights of citizens.  

The CounteR project's presence at Hannover Messe 2023 was met with keen interest from industry professionals, policymakers, and other stakeholders in the field of security. The project's unique approach to tackling radicalization, its emphasis on privacy and data protection, and its use of advanced technologies garnered attention and recognition as a promising solution in the fight against terrorism.

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.
