How We Develop Online Marketplaces
Devoner is a comprehensive custom marketplace software development company. We support our clients through every stage of product development, from idea validation to post-launch maintenance and support. This ensures that our marketplaces remain stable, relevant, and free of bugs, providing a seamless experience for all users.
1. Discovery
At Devoner, our marketplace website development process begins with a comprehensive discovery session. During this phase, we delve into the subject matter, determining the type of marketplace desired by the client—whether it’s for products or services, aimed at ordinary customers or other companies—and outline the desired functionality. Additionally, we identify potential bottlenecks and devise effective solutions. This approach allows companies to validate their business ideas without substantial upfront investment. Once we gauge the project’s complexity, we can offer customers more precise time and cost estimates.
2. Design
At Devoner, our UX/UI design team specializes in crafting visually appealing and intuitive marketplaces that help businesses differentiate themselves from competitors offering similar products. Upon receiving the key project requirements, our team begins by creating wireframes—sketches outlining the layout of elements on the webpage, devoid of colors or logos. These wireframes are then transformed into clickable prototypes, facilitating initial user interaction. Once approved by the client, these prototypes form the foundation for the final UI design.
3. Development
At Devoner, we adhere to Agile principles, a methodology we find mutually beneficial for our clients and development team. This approach allows us to mitigate risks and ensure early and predictable delivery of top-notch software solutions. Following Agile philosophy, the marketplace website development process is divided into short sprints, typically lasting two weeks each. At the start of every sprint, we prioritize tasks from the backlog. Our development team then proceeds to build the required functionality, rigorously tested by quality assurance engineers to ensure bug-free performance. Once all issues are resolved, the functionality is released to production.
4. Release
The release phase marks the culmination of the custom marketplace development journey, where your software solution goes live and becomes accessible to end-users and search engines. The final application version is released to production, pending approval from our quality assurance engineers who ensure bug-free performance. Concurrently, our development team prepares technical documentation, known as release notes, detailing significant functional and non-functional changes. These release notes are crucial as they demonstrate the value of the product to our customers.
5. Support
At Devoner, we recognize the importance of businesses staying relevant and meeting the evolving needs of their audience. That’s why we’re committed to advancing the solutions we deliver by adding new functionality and addressing reported bugs promptly. Our support and maintenance services offer flexibility to customers in two ways. They can opt to purchase a set number of hours per month or create a backlog of tasks for our marketplace development team. We advise accumulating tasks until they reach at least eighty working hours, maximizing cost savings on maintenance services.
