We are excited to have been named certified Xamarin consulting partners.
Xamarin is a software tool used to build mobile apps in both iOS and Android, and something we've used heavily in projects over the last three years.
Xamarin is owned by Microsoft and has grown into a powerful and popular way to build native mobile applications.
Partner status is achieved by showing expertise in delivering Xamarin mobile solutions.
Myself and the team have been working with Xamarin for some time and have supported a number of clients on complex projects.
To be completely honest, we were anxious that we were going to hit a ceiling with Xamarin development output and application performance. As a result, we waited before really commiting to it.
The performance and speed of development has really impressed us. The biggest benefit for us is the ability to create apps using a the same programming language as the backend. But there are a number of other benefits from utilising the stack of Microsoft tools including Azure, Mobile Centre, and Visual Stusio Team Services together.
We are confident that Xamarin is the most effective way to deliver high quality mobile applications across Android and iOS, so we've taken the time to build our relationship with Microsoft and enhancing our own capabilities.
As a result of the Xamarin partnership, three of our developers (myself included), have completed qualifications at Xamarin University, and a number of others team members are also experienced in using the technology.
We also recently became a Microsoft Silver Partner, which we achieved via our vast experience with Microsoft products and endorsements from our clients.
