Services

Agile Software Development

In recent years, Agile software development has enabled IT and business teams to develop and innovate new software platforms and services faster. Organisations that have adopted the Agile approach have seen significant improvements in software development speed, project transparency, product quality, and business influence over outcomes. While these improvements are compelling, they can only be attained if a mature, end-to-end product management framework is in place. In its absence, the benefits of an Agile product and service development lifecycle may not be fully achieved. Agile Methodologies: -Software delivery in large agile environments, using Scrum, Kanban, Lean, and FDD -Stakeholders plan, commit, execute, inspect and adapt in sync -Shortened time to market -Quick reaction to changes in business needs Agile Product Design Sprints A five-day design adventure with value in mind, an integrated approach to product design that considers customer and business needs, disruptive technology benefits, learning, competitor offering and cost of development and maintenance.

Security

As technologies continue to evolve, new vulnerabilities are discovered at an astounding pace, making information security a serious challenge for businesses worldwide. It is crucial to address security challenges promptly and expertly, to avoid potentially serious consequences, be it loss of profit or damaged business reputation. Security Risks Security breaches result in information leakages, affecting businesses in a variety of ways, from system downtime to unauthorized use of sensitive data (credit card details, personal health records) to monetary fraud and legal actions. A single hack has an average economic impact of $300k, not to mention harm to business reputation. When Is it Time To Act? Preventive measures are easier to implement and more cost-effective than a security breach recovery. We advise that every software application is checked for security issues at the earliest stages of development. Security is not a product but a process, and with new vulnerabilities appearing daily, security testing should become a routine procedure for any business. How DataArt Helps Its Clients DataArt provides a full range of solutions to help companies secure their products and infrastructure through a structured approach and consistent methodology based on industry-wide best practices and accompanying resources, such as OSSTMM, OWASP and WASC. Our expertise includes network and application-level assessments and building counter-measure solutions. We help our clients identify security issues, suggest remediation solutions, and provide ongoing support to their technical teams.

Solution Design

The Solution Design Group is DataArt’s consulting division, specializing in: Product Design (creating new products that not only work as designed but succeed in their objectives) System Modernization (transforming legacy technology to support business agility so our clients can quickly adapt to market changes and emerging opportunities) Application Rationalizations (unifying duplicative applications into one) Digital Transformation (helping clients re-imagine how they service their customers via digital tools) How We Partner with You We partner with our clients along a singular focus: making sure they are successful. We closely collaborate with our clients to understand their challenges within the context of their business and user base. We help our clients crystalize their objectives and, working iteratively, help them arrive at an optimal solution to achieve those objectives within their constraints. Throughout the process we ensure all stakeholders are aligned and help them navigate the myriad of pitfalls that cause so many IT projects to fail.

UX/UI

DataArt Design Studio is smoothly integrated into the development process, helping to create a convenient and intuitive product. We have vast experience with complex B2B solutions as well as with consumer apps. Following modern trends and technologies and working hand in hand with the development team, we know how to make the most effective UX/UI solutions for iOS and Android, including those made in VR and AR. Why UX? Research shows that uncovering product faults at the design stage reduces development time by up to 50%. We implement a user-centered design approach to ensure that design flaws are discovered and fixed in the design phase, significantly reducing the risks of product failure. The impact of UX and usability on ROI is critical in consumer interfaces, while enterprise solutions with good UX improve personnel’s efficiency and satisfaction. How We work We don’t use pre-defined solutions, but rather tailor our approach to the needs and goals of the particular client. Each client and every product is unique, and we always take into consideration every possible aspect: the budget and timeline, access to key stakeholders and end-users, and existing artifacts and knowledge, among others.

Legacy Modernization

A legacy system is not always defined by its age. It might be due to the lack of support or its inability to meet the needs of a business or organization that a system is considered to be legacy. Such software is usually difficult (or impossible) to maintain, support, improve, or integrate with the new systems due to its architecture, underlying technology, or design. We help Clients To evaluate, Modify, Or re-engineer Legacy Software Systems to: -Future-proof critical business functions -Unlock data and analytics opportunities -Improve client and employee satisfaction -Provide better performance, quality, and scalability Throughout our modernization projects, we follow key principles of business agility and apply them to realities of modern technology: -DevOps and rapid-deployment foundation -Infrastructure modernization -Rapid-development and active use of solution accelerators -Component-based vs. monolithic systems, multi-skilled, multi-functional (Business + Dev), outcome-oriented teams -80% of the budget is functionality, 20% is modernization as a secondary goal

Mobile-First Development

DataArt has been providing consultancy and development services in mobile development since 2006. We have an extensive expertise in providing mobile solutions for both iOS and Android platforms. During the development process, from the technical standpoint, we always concentrate on three key aspects: the most native, convenient and smooth user interface, a substantial level of data protection and security as well as clear and maintainable codebase.
