"After a very careful selection process, we chose ASSIST to be our primary software development partner and have been delighted with the way our working relationship is growing from strength to strength.

Most often our clients are seeking a specialist skill, or need a team to focus on a specific project or are looking at augmenting their in-house development team. ASSIST often act as an extension of our clients in-house team and support our clients through the entire project life cycle, so from the discovery analysis phase or a MoSCoW analysis, to technical architecture, front-end design/animation, user journeys, analysis and requirements gathering, software development, testing both manual and automation, DevOps and project management. They can also provide on-going support and deep-dive problem resolution when necessary.

We have been highly impressed with their level of productivity, their strong communication skills and ASSIST’s wide range of capabilities – we have yet to ask for a skill that they cannot provide!

The ASSIST teams always take a consultative approach, they go the extra mile for our clients and give very realistic estimates on both timelines and budgets, to ensure our clients are never in for unwelcome surprises. It is a pleasure to represent ASSIST within the UK and Ireland and we look forward to collaborating with them for years to come."

“As a start-up, we were in need of some additional coding capacity for enhancing and improving our solution and maintain a high level of customer satisfaction. Of course, we were hoping for technical expertise and high quality (i.e. short testing cycles). Not only did ASSIST and the team exceed our expectations, we quickly worked together as if we did so for years. The flow of additional ideas, constructive criticism and many small incremental improvements in our solution made a real difference to our success. The spirit of innovation and quality combined with the personal interest in our solution made our relationship quickly turning into more than just a commercial partnership.”

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.
