Overview

We have worked with Bubble for the last 5 years to refine, expand and scale what started as a simple but great idea. The original MVP grew into a full business solution that includes mobile app, web app, operations portal, and a back end supporting countless users. We have helped Bubble establish its internal technical team, and transitioned all the technology operations.

Strategy

Understanding what a business needs given it's current product stage is key to successfully supporting a startup. When we took on Bubble the most important things were agility and adaptability, and so in the initial stage we worked closely with Bubble to ideate, design, and develop new features which would help the product expand. This meant solving more parts of the overall problem and gaining more users. As the user base grew and the strain on the system increased, the next important step was to optimise performance and improve their operational abilities, such that the system could dynamically scale during busier periods. With all of this in place, the product was in a great place to iterate and polish the overall user experience. Bubble's technology and product were developed to such a high standard that having an external development team was seen as a benefit in assisting the company's growth.

Silicon Rhino has been the Bubble technology team since shortly after launch. They've transformed the product and been able to provide strategic advice to guide us to be a stronger business. As we transition to our own internal technology team, I'm grateful for all the value Silicon Rhino has been able to build into our world class care app - they have been invaluable support.
