Homer
Homer is a Stockholm-based provider of services for householders.
Vilmate supported Homer in developing its mobile and web product, working from an early prototype toward a more complete system.
The challenge
Homer needed a user-friendly tool to store and manage all property-related information in one place.
The client wanted to turn an existing prototype into a solid product, improve the current features, and add new advanced functionality.
The project also had to scale into a fully functional, multi-layered system with a microservice architecture.
Our approach
When the cooperation began, Homer already had a clear product vision and a prototype that had been in development for about six months.
Build on the existing vision
Vilmate worked from the client’s detailed understanding of how the product should look and function.
Provide outsourcing expertise
Homer chose Vilmate as an outsourcing partner to support the project with the development expertise needed to move the product forward.
Keep development on track
The planned functionality was delivered in high quality, on time, and within budget. The project continued to improve after the main features were implemented.
