Turn Business Ideas Into Real Software Solutions With Diffco

Website Planet had the chance to talk to Evgeny Nasonov, CTO at Diffco, a leading app development company offering mobile and AI-powered solutions with 1000+ projects in their portfolio. We will learn from the past, present and future of their work, and look at the current trends in their industry.

Please Present Diffco To Our Audience. What Services Do You Offer?

Diffco is a team of top professionals for turning business ideas into real software solutions. Web services, mobile applications, SaaS, AI, and computer vision. We have been on the market since 2008, and since that date, we have already launched more than 1000 successful projects for over 400 satisfied clients. Our main office is located in the heart of the world’s hi-tech center – Silicon Valley, but since our team is operating remotely, we have clients from all over the globe. Depending on the needs of our consumers, we offer two types of services: full project development and team augmentation – meaning we provide you with the individual or a custom group of developers on the specific project.

What’s Your Story? What Sparked The Idea, And How Has It Evolved So Far?

It actually started in 2008, when me and my partner Vadim decided to make a content management company, as back in that time, many companies decided to start moving their business online. In the beginning, we were providing content management services only, but then we observed a much higher demand in development and realized it was the right time to start to grow. The first website we developed was launched in 2008; then, in 2014, we expanded to mobile app development, and a couple of years later, we added AI and blockchain.

What Are The Typical Pain Points That You Help Solve?

To start with, we help with the proper management and to organize the pipelines correctly. In some cases, companies may struggle with leading internal development teams because of a lack of expertise, experience, and basically may simply burn their budget.

Another point is that if you have never worked on developing software projects, you may not get a clear picture of a product view. With years of experience, we established the process of how to launch the project correctly and how to minimize mistakes. We schedule a couple of clear calls with the consumers to discuss their ideas and goals, do the MVP, some early prototypes to test, wireframes, sketches, design, and usual syncs, which end in a successful project.

What Is The Mission Of Diffco?

No matter if the company is a startup or an established business, we take the idea and goals, and transform them into a mobile application or enterprise digital solution. With decades of development experience, a deep understanding of global markets, and unmatched technical expertise, our team has everything needed to create great products.
To sum it up, At Diffco, we don’t just develop apps, we build, accelerate, and support businesses.

What Makes You Stand Out From The Competition?

It is our product oriented approach, as we focus on enhancing development abilities to provide the highest quality possible, proper management , and the skills of our team. In many cases, companies have around 80% of junior developers, meanwhile, in Diffco, we spent quite a lot of time building a team of top professionals.

Moreover, we work with multiple domains: healthcare, finance, marketplaces, education, SaaS, and more. You may think that healthcare is not connected to finance, but in fact, we get the possibility to utilize experience from working with one domain in the other one. For instance, we can implement many UI approaches and extra functionality, which the product will benefit from.

What Trends Are Going To Shape The Future Of Your Industry?

I would like to start with the fact that the market is changing. After the covid lockdown in 2020 the demand for IT products went up, meanwhile now the situation is changing. Couple of weeks ago Facebook announced that they are about to fire around 10000 people, and the same story is about to happen with Twitter. Amazon and many other IT companies announced that they are going to limit the budgets. Based on this data, we realize that the IT market has been changing since the covid lockdown and all of the other crises we have been facing lately, which dropped wages.
Therefore, software development companies have to become even more effective and keep working on the service level, meanwhile, the customer needs to be more precise with their idea and get to know the IT market better from a financial point of view.

The advancement of robotics and AI is paving the way for increased automation in software development. Furthermore, we anticipate a surge in the number of developers actively seeking job opportunities in the near future, potentially catalyzing the establishment of additional startups.

Lastly, Any Exciting News Or Developments That You Would Like To Share About Diffco?

Unfortunately, we can not share a lot of new developments we are working on because of NDAs.
When it comes to us, currently we are working on a product management approach that will allow our clients to reduce cost for project management, as the process will become faster. Another important thing we would like to add is that we are focusing on healthcare projects a lot.
