Project Summary

A leading Polish tour operator partnered with Axabee to develop an intuitive mobile app for iOS and Android integrated with the company's systems. Axabee took over the project, fixed outstanding bugs, and implemented a range of features including search, booking, chat, and push notifications using two-week sprints. The app achieved approximately 1,000,000 downloads, maintains a 4+ rating, and received industry nominations and awards.

Key Challenges

  • Increase app downloads and app store ratings
  • Reverse declining app metrics after previous vendor issues
  • Create an intuitive application despite many advanced functionalities
  • Implement a broad set of features from inspiration/search to booking, in-destination client service, and post-sales
  • Integrate the app with multiple Itaka systems

Project Deliverables

  • Mobile app for iOS and Android
  • Search and filtering functionality
  • Offer comparison and sales/booking flow
  • Quick online reservation/booking system
  • Upsell of additional services
  • Push notifications
  • Chat and video chat features
  • Reviews feature
  • Integration with Itaka systems
  • UI/UX design and testing (manual and automated)

Project Solution

Axabee was recommended and took over an existing mobile app project from another software house, executing a smooth takeover and quickly resolving overdue bugs. Work proceeded in two-week sprints with a team composed of iOS and Android developers, a tester, and a UI/UX designer. Axabee implemented features including search, filters, offer comparison, the full booking flow with quick online reservations, upsell capabilities, push notifications, chat and video chat, reviews, and integrations with Itaka systems.

Project Outcome

  • Advanced, intuitive mobile application with approximately 1,000,000 downloads and a 4+ rating in Google Play and the App Store
  • Positive customer feedback and a large turnover from reservations made via the app
  • Two nominations at the Mobile Trend Awards and the 'Róża Kolumba' prize
