We highly recommend Software District for their outstanding software development services. In our recent collaboration, they showcased exceptional expertise in developing a complex, data-driven application. Their attention to detail, efficient project management, and prompt issue resolution were vital to our project's success. Software District's contributions have significantly enhanced our technology offerings, and we eagerly anticipate future collaborations
Software District's expertise truly shone in our recent project, where we developed a cutting-edge trucking app using Mendix's low-code platform. Their team worked closely with us to create a comprehensive solution that seamlessly calculated drivers' pay by factoring in loads, mileage, and miscellaneous fees. Thanks to Software District's proficiency, we streamlined our payroll processes and ensured accurate compensation for our drivers. This project exemplifies Software District's ability to harness Mendix's low-code capabilities to deliver a practical, results-driven solution that has significantly improved our operations in the trucking industry.
The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten." We completed our new website with Software District, and we are so excited to have it live! It is professionally done and eye appealing. Works with mobile devices as well. John and team are the greatest, so responsive and timely in getting back whenever we have questions or need to make changes. I love their design sense, and their willingness to dig down deep to understand our business and what is important to us and the clients. Their work on our website and Internet marketing has made a significant difference to our business. We have seen a 575% increase in quote requests from the website which has been very remarkable. We are so thankful to have found Software District and wholeheartedly recommend them
We follow a five-step process based in collaboration and efficient communication that leads to a well thought-out product that meets your needs and expectations:
We've been where you are. Being a development shop for nearly a decade, and working through the COVID-19 pandemic, we've had many challenges and setbacks to overcome. Doing so, has ultimately helped us understand our clients better. We are dedicated to helping small businesses overcome their challenges, and so far there hasn't been anything we couldn't solve with app development.
A digital prototype is a non-functional version of your finished software. A prototype is used to understand your idea more and can be used for AB testing, attracting investors, developing pitches and more. Prototypes are detailed with animations, colors, and hopefully the final content in place. We then use the prototype as a blueprint for software developers when you decide to start building your product.
1 ) A wireframe is a simplified skeleton that makes up the user flow, or the path taken by a user to achieve functionality goals. Usually a wireframe is the second thing built right after a site map, and is later on molded into a fully interactive digital prototype.
2 ) A Prototype acts as a glimpse into your finished software process, and can be used for AB testing, attracting investors, developing pitches and more. Prototypes are detailed with animations, colors, and hopefully the final content in place. We then use the prototype as a blueprint for software developers when you decide to start building your product.
It costs around $1500 to upwards of $5000 for a digital prototype. The price depends on how complex your app needs to be. More screens, functionality, crazy designs, and revisions will all increase the price. Still, the price for a prototype is well worth it when considering the value it brings to the future of your software product.
When designing an app prototype, there are 2 great options. 1 ) Figma, a free Design and User Experience software that makes it easy to collaborate with clients and team members. 2 ) Adobe XD is a great paid option for designers who already own the Adobe Creative Cloud subscription.
UX, or User Experience Design, is a job dedicated to making software more accessible and user-friendly. UX Designers use empathy and best-practices to create an engaging experience that is easy to understand for the target users of an app or other software.
The first step when building a digital prototype is understanding the software in question. Once the main funtionality and user goals are understood, a site-map and a simple wireframe is made to detail the user flow. Finally a detailed prototype is made based on the other steps, in a program like Figma, or Adobe XD. Each screen is connected to each other using buttons, swipes, etc to create a fully interactive blueprint for your software project.
UI, or User Interface Design, is the process of creating the look and feel of an app, website, or other software product. This includes colors, typography, imagery, layout, animations, interactive components and more. User Interface Designers are an important part of the software development process, as without a UI Designer, a majority of developers will deliver a product that doesn't meet proper design standards.
Yes! Since building software is a long process, it's important to showcase updates and generate hype around a product launch. This is where a digital prototype comes in handy. Advertise your awesome-looking prototype on social media, or send it around the office to generate excitement and reel-in investors.
