1. Introduction
The year 2020 was one of the most challenging and unpredictable years, but it gave us the opportunity to reflect and focus on the values we hold dear. Through dedication, perseverance and determination, we managed to make 2020 a year full of successes. 
2. Education Ambassadors
We remained dedicated to our goal of supporting and encouraging students who want to pursue a career in software development by offering 70 internship opportunities and organizing tech events, competitions and workshops.
3. Nature and Sports Lovers
We supported, promoted and encouraged mental and physical health by taking our love and passion for sports and nature to the highest peaks of Bukovina. We took part in various running and cycling competitions and we were one of the sponsors for the Bukovina Ultra Rocks event.
4. Supporting the community and those in need
We continued to nurture a culture that promotes empathy and compassion towards those around us, but especially those less fortunate. We believe in giving back to the community and we did so throughout the year by taking part in various charitable activities such as blood drives, hospital donations and Christmas gift-giving for low-income families. We also donated laptops to children in need to facilitate their access to online learning.
5. Our expanding team
We continued to invest in our people, focusing on learning and development, training and certification, and career progression. We welcomed 31 new members to our continuously growing family that have contributed to the accomplishments of the company and helped make 2020 yet another successful year.
6. New connections, satisfied customers, and achievements
We had the opportunity to build new bridges towards future collaborations and promote our software services at trade shows and tech conferences in Germany and Spain. 
In 2020, we expanded our business portfolio with 13 new valuable clients and we worked on 50 internal and external fascinating projects
We continued to provide high-quality software services and we are proud of the positive feedback we received from our clients.
We invested time and passion in developing remarkable projects during the most-awaited internal competition – “Best Innovative Minds”. These projects stood out for their creativity, attention to detail and use of technology, having the potential to benefit the community we live in.
7. Gratitude and Reflection
Although it was a year filled with division and uncertainty, we got through it as a team, ensuring that safety was of top priority in everything we did. We worked towards our goals and we successfully managed to overcome the challenges that came our way.
We would like to thank everyone who contributed to the growth of ASSIST Software as a team and as a business in 2020.

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.
