Mobile Websites Development

Due to the rapid growth in mobile technology and the increasing number of people accessing the internet through mobile devices, websites are now being accessed more frequently from mobile devices than traditional desktop computers. If you have a website that is not optimized for mobile devices, it will appear to be jumbled and very difficult to navigate through, creating a bad user experience for your visitors. A mobile-friendly or “responsive” website allows users to easily view your content on any device without having to download an app or reconfigure their settings.

At EDS, we offer creative, top-notch mobile website development services to mobile platforms in order to cover the mobile visitors and make your web presence on mobile devices. We offer mobile website development solutions for the following mobile platforms –

  • Apple iOS
  • Blackberry
  • Google Android
  • Windows
MOBILE APP ADVERTISING MOBILE APP MARKETING

MOBILE APP ADVERTISING 

Over 80 million people pay to download apps on their mobile devices, and 93 percent of users will download and install an app. The relationship between the app developer and an ad network is that the ad network pays the developer to include its code into the application. Once the app is running, the code draws ads from a publisher’s network and displays them on the device’s screen.

Over 12 years, we have evolved as an agency. We help leading companies in the UAE, Middle East and India reach their target audience. We understand how your audience thinks and what they are looking for. We are always one step ahead of the path-breaking trends and patterns on digital media. We know that mobile is set to reign in the digital realm, so our solutions are designed with a “mobile first” ideology.

Mobile Apps Development Dubai

Mobile Apps Development Dubai, App Developers UAE

We provide a broad range of technical expertise and can solve complex problems for clients. Our team has over twelve years of experience in developing complex applications and online systems. We work with legacy systems to support new app developments and bring together systems, processes and applications with seamless integration.

We are the leading digital marketing agency, providing our clients with the very best in cutting-edge technology, knowledge and creativity.

Yes, we can. We work with you to write a detailed project specification before we begin work on your project. We will provide you with a fixed price and a clear description of the work to be done so that you will know exactly what to expect from us and what our responsibilities are. This protects you: you can hold us accountable to deliver exactly what has been put to paper. No hidden charges or sneaky fees. Everything is clear and concise, even before we begin your project.

We will always be upfront about our pricing. We will try to give you a ballpark or approximate price as early as possible; normally on your first call or email. Having an idea of expected costs as soon as possible helps you to decide whether what you have in mind is commercially feasible and if you would like to investigate further.

Ballpark estimates are educated guesses based on our experience. The actual final cost may go up or down depending upon the details of your requirements. The more information you can provide us with about what you need, the more accurate our ballpark estimate is likely to be.

If you have an idea for a project, we’re here to help. Send us an email via the form on this page, or call our team at +971-4-5193444. One of our specialists will get back to you within one working day.

Our apps do support both iOS and Android mobile platforms. We use development frameworks such as React and React Native to enable us to quickly develop applications that work across web and mobile devices.

Yes, in fact we build nearly every mobile app with a web-based application that is used to drive it. For example, you may have logged into an app on your phone; there is a web server in the background of that app that checks whether you have permission to log in or not.

Before we start building your software, we hold a meeting with you to gain a clear understanding of the commercial factors driving the need for your project. We want to get to a position very quickly where we know enough about your requirements to be able to challenge your assumptions.

When we understand your business, we go to great lengths at the start of a project to work with you and clearly define requirements.

We want to show you that we know your business and its needs. To do this, we often create a 10-page specifications document, including wireframe sketches where appropriate, before writing a single line of code or designing a single pixel.

Your project manager will be responsible for communicating with you, providing updates on your project’s status and answering questions as needed.

We use a support portal to manage your requests and questions, ensuring we respond to them as quickly as possible. Our support team prioritizes your work appropriately, and we offer a range of maintenance options after launch to make sure we stay responsive to your requests.

You will receive appropriate copyright or licensing rights for the bespoke code we provide for your project. Our team is transparent about code ownership and you will have the opportunity to review our terms before the project begins.

To ensure the highest level of security possible, we do not publicly discuss all our security precautions.

However, we can provide an overview of some of the steps we take to protect your data.

Our servers are regularly updated to run the latest software and patches, and the servers themselves have a firewall enabled by default. The back-end server code used to drive your application is configured to run over HTTPS and has an SSL certificate installed by default.

We use proven frameworks to protect against security holes, such as SQL injection attacks, cross-site scripting (XSS), host-header attacks and cross-site request forgery (CSRF).
We also avoid direct file exposure through protected and restricted directories. Debugging modes are only enabled on test environments, meaning that live servers don’t reveal source code in the event of an error. In special cases when needed, we write our own code to build upon the protections provided by such frameworks.

We use private-public key encryption for secure communication channels, as well as third-party software to audit each line of code before publication. This helps ensure the security of our system. Our servers are backed up daily in multiple locations and on-site, in the event of a server failure.

We offer a number of security options to ensure your site or application remains safe from attacks. These include CloudFlare or Akamai content delivery networks (CDNs) which can provide an extra layer against Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks while also speeding up the performance of your service. They provide an additional firewall layer, rate limiting, and mask your server’s IP address from those with malicious intent.

To launch a project successfully, many factors must be taken into account, and some requirements may take longer to develop than others. However, for estimation purposes, one to two months is a good estimate for the project’s development time.

We can complete projects faster than the average development firm. In some cases, we may be able to meet a deadline by dedicating more people to a project. In other situations, we may need to restrict the amount of resources available for a project due to technology or security requirements.

If you need an ongoing support arrangement, we offer several options. Ad-hoc support can work for projects that need minimal support and can avoid the need for a fixed monthly cost.
However, this can be at the expense of responsivity as requests are scheduled based on when our resource is available. Most of our clients choose to have a small monthly retainer to get the best responsivity and be able to cover small ad-hoc changes, improvements, updates, and support.

We base our retainer pricing on the amount of development and support hours you need each month. The number of hours you need depends on many factors such as the size of your project, or the number of new features you are likely to need each month that you’d like to be covered by your retainer arrangement. We want to make sure that we’re providing good value-for-money so we’ll recommend that you put together a nice-to-have list before signing a retainer agreement so that we can use our allocation for value-adding improvements each month.

If you have ongoing project requirements beyond the launch of a website or app, then you may want to consider taking an agile approach to your project and signing an agreement that allows us to build, test, and deploy larger new features every month. Under this agreement, we would have a monthly retainer allowance that pays for enough time to develop significant new features. At the start of each month, we would agree on the work that is going to form part of the next sprint (i.e. the next 2-4 weeks) and would deliver the work at the end of that period.

Clients who favour agile approach, typically understand that we will be doing significant amounts of work over the coming months. They may not know what features they need or when they need them, but they understand that requirements will be changing. Start-up companies often favour agile software development because they can launch a product before they would have had time to fully plan it out. Users’ engagement with the product after launch can have a significant impact on which features or changes are prioritised.

We recommend that you start by launching a minimal version of your vision, then continue to adapt it over time. This staged approach is called launching a “minimum viable product” (MVP).

The idea behind launching an MVP is that you have inevitably made assumptions, and you cannot test these assumptions until you release something to the world. By releasing a lean first version, you can test your assumptions, then prioritize future requirements based on this information. It reduces engineering waste in order to save time and money.

We offer two approaches to updating your app or website. The first option is to commission us on a project-by-project basis and we will create a fixed set of requirements for you. The second option is to schedule a certain amount of developer time each month and we will continually improve things for you. Both approaches have merit and it is likely that you will know instinctively which one is right for you.

For front-end development, we use HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. We also use React Native for most native mobile app projects, but sometimes rely on Cordova or PhoneGap when budgets are tight or we need to support web, Android, and iOS quickly.

For web apps, we use frontend layout frameworks such as Bootstrap or Ant Design in combination with front-end code frameworks such as React or Angular. On the back end, we usually use PHP frameworks such as Laravel or Yii2, or JavaScript using NodeJS.

There are a number of languages and platforms available for creating web applications. When starting a new project, we consider the best approach based on the capabilities of the tools that support these technologies. For example, we may be more likely to use a framework such as laravel for projects that suit a monolithic architecture, and we may be more likely to use NodeJS for solutions that require us to configure microservices.

We begin by creating a database that will hold all your data. We then build an interface between the database and web and mobile apps to allow them to send and receive data. An application programming interface (API) is like a drive-through restaurant’s digital version. When you place an order at the drive-through window, you are communicating with an API. If you ask for a hamburger, then the teller will give you one from the kitchen. If you ask for a trampoline and are told that they don’t sell that product, it’s because we have configured these rules based on your system’s functionality.

Yes, most apps and systems have an interface like what we described in the last question. Ask the company if they have any “API documentation.” If they do, then it is very likely that we will be able to integrate with the system. We’ve experience connecting with lots of different systems and online tools to drive app functionality – here are a few common ones we’ve worked with: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Amazon AWS, Salesforce, Google maps, Matchmaker, Broadbean, Google Sheets, PayPal, Stripe and Airtables.

The payments we process can be taken in-store or online using one of several third-party payment providers such as Worldpay, SagePay, Stripe or PayPal. There are lots of different payment providers out there, but they typically fall into one of two categories:
1.Full end-to-end
Stripe and PayPal, among others, fall into the end-to-end category of payment processors. With this kind of vendor, you use their service, and they handle both the merchant services and fund collection for you. You have a balance that accrues with every sale and payments are made into your bank account at regular intervals, usually every seven days. Stripe charges 1.4% +20p (at time of writing) for European cards, and 2.9% +20p for non-European cards.
2.Merchant services
Merchant service companies, such as Sagepay and Worldpay, act as a middleman between your business’s bank account and the website or app where you accept payments. The merchant services company charges a flat transaction fee—typically 10-20p per transaction. Your bank then deducts a percentage of that fee when the money arrives in your account.

With this route, you can negotiate with your bank about the percentage they charge – it is not uncommon for businesses to shop around different banks to find the best deal. Merchant services companies typically offer volume discounts so larger businesses can save money on fees.

The integration of your site with a merchant services provider typically requires more development time when compared to using an end-to-end provider such as Stripe because fewer payment related capabilities are provided out-of-the-box.

As a bespoke design agency, we are often called on to work with existing teams and systems. It is common for us to work closely with other suppliers that are relevant to the project’s success. We aim to build collaborative relationships with these stakeholders and explore their ideas early on so that we can work around any potential limitations.

Yes, we design custom graphics for apps. The designs are usually created before development begins, and we use those designs to build the app.

Our design process starts by learning about your brand, its image and your business as a whole. Once we understand what you need from the app, we can create designs that are easy to use and perform well for your company. I use the word ‘engineer’ here because good designs aren’t just pretty pictures—what we build has to work well for you. This often translates to users that enjoy using our apps and implementing processes that convert clients.

As part of the design process, we’ll start with wireframes that map out the major components of your app or website. These will help us think about how people will navigate through each section. Next, you’ll see some mock-ups showing how your app or website will look once it’s built. We’ll get your feedback on these designs before we start coding it up so that we can make sure that everything is exactly as you want it to be.

We prefer to follow our own design process if possible, as it allows us to deliver the best quality and consistency. If your designs are strong and meet our high standards, however, we can work with them. If they don’t meet our high standards, we will be honest and recommend that we create the designs for you instead.

It is likely that the GDPR regulations will affect your business if you have a website or store customer data. If you ignore the new rules, then you may be liable for fines of up to 4% of your revenue, so it is in your best interests to become familiar with them.

Yes, we can host your web project on our managed servers. If you need a specific hosting environment, or if you have resource demands that are beyond the scope of our standard offerings, we’ll be happy to set something up for you. For example, if you need to handle high volumes of processing and traffic globally, then we might set up an advanced multi-server configuration using Amazon’s EC2, Cloud Front, Elastic Load Balancer and S3 storage facilities.

We perform daily backups of our servers and store them both on-site, in case of complete system failure, and off-site at an off-site storage facility. This provides multiple layers of redundancy and ensures that your data will be recoverable for a long period of time.

We support your business and marketing plans with the strategic insights of our team’s insight, experience, and knowledge. However, we are not an end-to-end marketing agency so don’t write copy or manage your marketing campaigns for you. If you need strategic marketing, social or SEO support then we have some preferred partner companies that we would be happy to introduce you to. Please contact us if you’re interested in learning more about our recommended partners.

Our approach depends on the specific project. We use Waterfall or agile methods, depending on your priorities and our way of working together.
Our clients often ask us to provide a fixed-price quotation on their projects because they need a budget figure to plan with and due to purchasing requirements. If this describes your situation, we will likely use a Waterfall approach to manage your project because it allows us to plan out all of the details before starting work. This process is less flexible than an Agile approach, but it provides you with precise estimates and clear deadlines for completion.

The agile process is more flexible than the waterfall approach: It allows drastic changes to the project according to business needs, but it does not have that long-term future prediction that the waterfall provides. Think of it as lots of mini-waterfall projects. Each sprint happens at the end of a short period; you can release new features and versions regularly, and change the plan for what will be developed as your priorities inevitably change. With agile, instead of defining a project cost, you define a monthly budget that relates to the amount of development time that you require.

In summary, Waterfall provides better budget certainty if you know your requirements are unlikely to change over the life of the project. The more flexible but less predictable Agile approach allows for regular changes as priorities shift but also requires a more flexible pay-for-time billing approach. If you want to launch a project that changes little over time, then we recommend using Waterfall. If you have lots of features you want to add into your project past the launch of version one, then we recommend shifting to the Agile approach with a fixed monthly budget.

Yes, we will need your support with testing the project. We have processes for testing and quality assurance, but the way that you will use and interact with what we’ve built will be different to how we predict. Even if everything works perfectly when we hand it over to you, you will need to check that everything works as expected in order to sign off on the work with confidence that we’ve delivered it to meet your expectations.

We recognize that not all companies that outsource their development needs remain permanently reliant on external developers. For example, a start-up may not have the experience or funds to employ and put the structures in place that are necessary to run an efficient in-house development team for some time. However, as the business grows, the commercial landscape may also change, making it more cost-effective to bring development work back in-house.

And we’re okay with that – in fact, we plan for it.

Our code is built upon frameworks used by the best teams in the world. For example, we use React—the same framework that powers Facebook and Instagram—for many of our projects. These frameworks provide a foundation of rules and conventions that give consistency to the work that developers create.

Our offices may not be physically destroyed, but skilled development teams are available in the event that our offices should explode. This reduces your project risk and increases your peace of mind.
Version control is the process of saving one’s progress as one goes along. For example, saving one’s progress every so often while writing a document and being able to go back to any version of that document at any time.

EDS provides a history of who has worked on what, and when. This enables us to manage the different versions of your application and safely work on a project in parallel. Once everyone is complete, we can pull together new code and features in a process called a merge. These methods allow us to work collaboratively with each other and reduces your business risk too.

We build websites using a variety of content management systems, each with its own benefits and drawbacks. Our usual go-to choices are Yii2, Laravel, NodeJS, MODX and WordPress, though we’ve also used many more including Drupal, Concrete5, Opencart, and Prestashop.

There isn’t a single content management system that will satisfy all website owners, as each one caters to different needs. For example, MODX is simple and ideal for individuals or small businesses with basic requirements. If you are planning to build a website with more advanced features such as user login and payment processing, then we will most likely advise you to use Yii2, Laravel or NodeJS ExpressJS/Sails.
