Appee, a Melbourne-based SaaS startup founded by three senior technology and media professionals with over 20 years’ experience each, offered a platform for in-app customer feedback and real-time contextual insight. Appee’s three founders needed a development partner capable of every dimension of the product: design, engineering, Agile process, and cloud deployment. Net Solutions delivered the MVP in 14 weeks at approximately 50% of the cost a comparable Australian vendor would have charged.
Building a SaaS product for a global market required a partner with capabilities spanning design, engineering, and product thinking.
The founders needed a team that could handle UX design, product thinking, and engineering simultaneously, not just a coding resource. Generic development shops could not meet this brief.
The product needed to capture both raw survey responses and behavioral context at the moment of feedback. Standard survey tools captured answers but not the situation surrounding them.
SaaS deployment from day one was a requirement, not a future state goal. The architecture had to be cloud-native from the initial MVP build.
The founders were based in Melbourne and needed a team willing to accommodate working hours that bridged the distance to India. Availability for real-time collaboration was essential.
Net Solutions deployed a cross-functional team including a UX designer, business analyst, and developers using Agile and Scrum with an MVP delivery focus. Lean UX principles were applied throughout. JavaScript and HTML5 powered the front-end, Java the backend, and MongoDB the database. The platform was deployed to cloud infrastructure at launch, and Appee’s founders visited the Net Solutions office at key stages to accelerate alignment.
Net Solutions delivered a world-class SaaS MVP in 14 weeks, ready for immediate market launch.
Businesses could publish questionnaires directly within their apps to reach users at specific moments in the product experience. Survey timing was contextual, not arbitrary.
The platform captured behavioral data alongside survey responses, giving clients richer, more actionable insight than traditional survey tools. Raw data and context were combined in a single record.
The platform was deployed to cloud infrastructure from the first day of launch, supporting reliable performance at scale. The architecture was built to grow with the product from the outset.
The product interface was designed using Lean UX principles for global usability across diverse business markets. The experience was clean, professional, and accessible to enterprise clients worldwide.
Development followed Agile and Scrum methodology with clear sprint objectives and regular client demonstrations. The MVP was completed and launched in 14 weeks from project start.
Appee launched as a product the founders were proud to bring to enterprise clients worldwide.
The MVP was delivered in 14 weeks, enabling Appee to enter the market quickly and begin collecting real customer feedback. Speed to launch was a significant competitive advantage.
The product was described by the founders as at par with anything developed by an Australian technology firm. Quality expectations were met without the local cost premium.
Development cost was approximately 50% of what an Australian vendor would have charged for the same output. The commercial efficiency allowed Appee to extend their runway significantly.
Net Solutions gave Appee’s founders a genuine product team. Their Lean UX approach, Agile discipline, and willingness to flex on time zones when it mattered made the engagement productive and the outcome exceptional.
