THE GEKKO WAY
At Golden Gekko we work very closely with the client, eliminating misunderstandings and increasing communication.
  • We work in very short iterations, usually hours or at the most days, ensuring that we can get rapid feedback on the applications. If we are heading in the wrong direction according to the client's expectations, it will not be for very long.
  • We identify the core product functionality as expected by the client, as early as possible, to enable early customer road testing. We develop secondary functions once the target users have experienced how the main functions work in real life.
  • We prefer to have a transparent dialog with our customers through the development process discussing around the actual product instead of specifications solely. This allows us to deliver the right product at the right time with exceptional quality.
Our development methodology is based on more than 6 years of research and best practice case studies of major corporations including Ericsson, ABB and Vodafone at one of the leading software engineering universities in the world.
* Mobile applications include native apps, cross-platform apps and HTML5/XHTML based mobile websites.
