Project Summary
Zazz designed and developed a mobile app for a financial services company to let investors check and manage portfolios. They led a five-phase engagement covering market research, product discovery, UX/UI design with high-fidelity prototypes, system architecture and full-stack development, API and CMS work, QA testing (manual and automated), and ongoing maintenance. The app achieved significant downloads within weeks and a five-star rating in both app stores, and the client praised Zazz’s communication and attention to detail.

Project Solution
Zazz provided a five-phase delivery that began with discovery (market research, product discovery, and feature prioritization) and continued through design and prototyping (user journey mapping, UX mapping, visual UI and high-fidelity mockups). The development phase included system architecture, front-end and back-end development, API and CMS development using an agile/scrum approach. The team completed manual and automated QA (unit, performance, and security testing) and then provided ongoing maintenance, updates, and debugging. The vendor assigned a dedicated project manager and a multi-discipline team and communicated weekly via Slack and Zoom.
Project Outcome
- Significant downloads within weeks of launch and a five-star rating in both app stores.
- Increased traffic and positive user feedback praising the app's ease of use.
