Gatsby's Light

Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)

At Gatsby's Light, we begin every project with a Non-Disclosure Agreement. This agreements protects the client's interests. One enormous benefit of working with a U.S. company is that Gatsby's Light is subject to all U.S. laws. Thus, any issues that might arise (we have never had any) can be dealt with easily within the U.S. legal framework. Compare that with trusting a developer in India or china with your money and your valuable app idea.

Project Description & Quote

After the NDA has been completed, the client composes a document that describes the functionality of the proposed application. At the same time, the client draws rough sketches of what he or she would like the user interface to look like. These documents constitute the the "project description" and are transmitted to Gatsby's Light where they are reviewed to produce a project cost and time estimate.

Project Management

When the project description is fully understood, revised, and accepted by both parties, a project manager will be assigned. Our highly effective project management system helps us keep track of every project minute. Our managers are proactive in their communication with both the client and the programmers. At this point, your project manager will guide you through the process of setting up you Apple and Android developer accounts. Keep in mind, most developers simply match clients and programmers and call it good.

Design

We employ some of the most talented animators and graphic designers in the business. Customers do judge apps by their designs. With the new ultra-high-resolution retina displays of the iPad 3 and iPhone 4s, an app's graphical quality is important than ever. As such, we pay close attention on the overall aesthetics of our apps. Our customers always sign off on their app's design before we move on to the coding phase.

Development

After an apps design has been created and finalized, our team of expert programmers go to work coding the application as per the client's specifications in the project description. From simple games, to complex high-level apps with server interaction, we can do it all. And we always keep one eye on emerging technologies as the industry advances.

Quality Assurance

Quality is key. An app's stability and overall quality translates to ratings, and ratings translate to sales. We have a specialized in-house QA team that conducts rigorous review and testing to ensure every app we develop is bug-free and runs smoothly. Our QA initiatives are not just geared towards detecting problems but also to come up with precise solution and improvement suggestions for the overall betterment of the app.

Deployment

At this stage of development, a build of the app will be transmitted to the client for testing and acceptance. After the app is accepted, you can either choose to upload to the app store yourself or allow our experienced deployment experts to assist you in deploying your app. We also offer customized app maintenance programs to ensure that your app is updated on-time and runs well on all intended devices and platforms.

Servicing

Every new app receives 30 days of complementary servicing and technical support. We also offer customized app maintenance programs to ensure that your app is updated on-time and runs well on all intended devices and platforms. When it is time to upgrade or add new features, we can do that too.
