Results
The final outcome of our work is a platform, which is easy to scale to other business types — delivery service, cleaning, road aid, etc. This flexibility opened other markets for our client to enter. Due to well-established communication and engineering we managed to deliver the app in time that gave CarOnFly enough such time that gave CarOnFly the opportunity to tap into the competitor free market. With help of the Mixpanel analytics platform (later we added Google Analytics support) Solvd performed experimental design activities to figure out which features suited well for different market segments.
