1. Supporting the community
We are happy to announce that ASSIST Software will be a sponsor for the Suceava Marathon (“Maratonul Cetății Suceava”), which will take place on the 21st of September 2019. This year’s event is the third edition of the event and it was organized by the international non-governmental organization, Save the Children Suceava.
The idea of organizing such a worthwhile event came from a small group of runners who wanted to raise awareness about the necessity of bringing modern medical equipment to maternity wards in Romanian hospitals. 
The aim of the event is to give a wake-up call to the whole country about the state of its maternity wards so as to raise funds to support mothers and newborn children.
2. "Every child matters!"
ASSIST Software is always more than happy to support charity events such as this one and give a helping hand whenever needed. We believe that we have a common purpose: to improve daily, to make each other proud, to support the local community and to become true global leaders in what we do. 
ASSIST is a local company that owes everything to the community it was born in, and this is why we believe we should do our best to give back. 
We believe in the power of community and hope that this event will succeed in changing the fate of newborn children in Romania.
3. Running for life
We are happy to be represented in this event by a large number of employees who enjoy taking part in competitions in order to challenge themselves and support good causes.  As with last year’s edition, there will be a family route and a kids’ route so we encourage participants to bring their families along so that they can also participate in the event.
4. The Marathon routes
The competition will start and finish at the Princely Fortress of Suceava (Cetatea de Scaun Suceava). As a response to requests from previous editions of the event, the organizers introduced new routes for this year’s event.
Therefore, in addition to the Long route – 35 km, the Short route – 22 km, the Popular route – 4 km and the Kids’ route – approx. 800m, this year there will also be a Cross route – 11 km and a Family route – a team competition of approximately 800 m.
5. See you there!
If you want to give a helping hand to Save the Children Suceava’s "Every child matters!" campaign, register now and join the initiative. 
You can sign up here until the 10th of September. You can also register at the event between 7:30 and 9:30 AM.
The event will start at 10:00 and the award ceremony will start at 13:00, where, as expected, every participant will receive a diploma and many other surprises that we cannot reveal yet!
We can't wait to run together for this noble cause!

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.
