We're very happy that we chose Grossum to develop our app, Authenpic. We've had a good experience with them since day one. They understood our plans and concept very quickly, and we had an open dialog with them throughout the whole process.
They delivered within the set timeframe, and they offered guidance and help through the process of launching our app. We will definitely work with them again when we
want to expand the features of our app.

GROSSUM STRENGTHS & WEAKNESSES
CONs PROs We are a small company and might not have necessary specialists right away
We look for professionals that would be perfect for YOUR project, knowing the requirements. That way you will get the best fit for a worker.
We don’t have a lot of departments Less departments – less bureaucracy
Our company doesn’t have 2,000 people working for us every day (yet)
We value a sense of family in the company
We are young on the market We are full of potential and excitement to do great things
No vice-presidents and white collars Everyone is a highly experienced individual valued by the team and working in a team
Our big competitors don't like us for our prices We present an optimal cost for the client without any sudden hidden overhead costs (whatever does not directly influence the cost of development - various fees, services, etc.)
We are not yet visible to all the clients Shine bright like a diamond – like a ray of light from a distant sun, our light just might need a little more time. Word of mouth and good quality service will bear the fruit in time
Being in downtown, there are a lot of distractions like pubs and bars Our office is located in the Kyiv downtown, close to three metro lines

QUALITY ASSURANCE
Test-Driven Development (TDD) and Pair Programming
Code Inspection QA Testing
We practice TDD processes for large-scale projects along with pair programming. This allows for the code to be checked as it is written, addressing and fixing the errors right away. As a result, the end product you get is of the
best quality.
At Grossum, we implement Code Review (also known as peer
review). This allows to find and fix mistakes overlooked during the initial development phase. This improves both the overall
quality of software as well as the developers’ skills.
All the code and tasks are checked and thoroughly tested
by our QA specialists. This check allows to prevent defects from occurring in the first place by
implementation of procedures and policies.
