Benefits of developing desktop software with us

Business analysis

Cooperation starts with Esoft’s specialists thoroughly analyzing the Customer’s needs and elaborating detailed requirements for the functionality and look-and-feel. By establishing a fruitful communication of these requirements between stakeholders and the development team, as well as by accurately documenting all the processes, our specialists ensure the Customer gets exactly the software they need

UI design

ESoft’s in-house design team works in tight collaboration with the Customer and developers to embrace user needs, brand identity and latest trends so as to come up with the concept of desktop software that looks appealing and feels intuitive.

ESoft’s approach to desktop application design rests on 3 pillars:

Planning every user interaction with the software to make it convenient and easy to follow
Providing mockups and welcoming feedback to visualize the Customer’s ideal app
Designing with brand consistency in mind and bringing fresh ideas for visually stand-alone apps

User convenience

All our apps undergo scrupulous planning and extensive testing to make sure they are easy-to-use

Desktop software architecture

At the pre-development stage, our team emphasizes careful planning and architecture design to advise on better technological options with respect to the Customer’s challenge and industry, as well as to suggest how to reduce development costs and improve the solution’s performance.

High-performance

With desktop apps being on average faster and more powerful than their web counterparts, we make sure our solutions are capable of solving complex tasks quickly.

Quality assurance

Our desktop applications can be delivered with the required test documentation (test plans, test cases, checklists, etc.) to give the Customer a clear view of the application performance in different cases and simplify its modification in the future.

Putting together customer needs and a vast technological experience, ESoft’s team opts for the most effective technology for every project.

C++ Qt is the most popular option as it is a number-one technology for cross-platform desktop app development, used by 5 out of top 10 Fortune 100 companies. It allows building high performing applications thanks to C++ capabilities, as well as helps to reduce costs with one source code base for all platforms.

.NET is used for development for Windows platform when a tight and seamless integration of the desktop application with Microsoft products is needed.

Java SWING is commonly applied for maintenance of legacy applications. Though the platform can be used for cross-platform desktop development, applications based on Java SWING are slower and don’t provide a standard GUI on Windows.
