Gurpreet Singh  

CEO, Hyperlocal Cloud

Give us a quick overview on Hyperlocal Cloud. When and how did you begin this journey and what were your motives to be successful in app development?

Hyperlocal Cloud is a full-service software development company providing high-quality services in a short span at fair charges. We started our journey in 2013 with the motive of building trust, transparency, and strength in both our solutions as well as our client relationships. Since our inception, our offerings revolved around providing startups, SMEs, and big enterprises with all kinds of on-demand services, including SAAS-based solutions.

What is your role in the management and development of Hyperlocal Cloud?

As the CEO of the company, I am responsible for the success and failure of the company. I am responsible for setting the direction and overall strategy of the company. In terms of management and development, I developed it from scratch; modeled the company's values, culture, and behavior.  I and my core team decide, set budgets, form partnerships, make acquisitions, and hire a team to steer the company accordingly.

Tell us about your biggest achievement in the industry.

We started from a small office, and now we have a presence around the globe, majorly in  UK, Australia, and the USA. To date, we have delivered over 100 apps to our clients around the world. We have worked with some large brands, including Chicago Roof Deck + Garden, TBS Properties, Power Tower Inc., and Synlawn. Millions use our solutions and are making big changes in their business operations.

How do you schedule the development phases of the Ecommerce web design and development projects to promise the timeline to your clients?

We consider our client’s needs, evaluate each potential solution, and then convey the future implications to the client. The client then decides on the preferred course of action. Our team is already aware of how much time and resources will be needed at this point to provide the solution. Together with our clients, we monitor the outcomes and modify the approach as necessary.

Which framework, programming or scripting languages do you prefer for Ecommerce development? How do you convince your clients for the same?

Our team of developers has expertise in many frameworks, scripting, and programming languages, such as Node’js, python, React, JavaScript, Vue.js, and many more. Every client’s requirements are different, so our experts can use the language that our clients are comfortable with.

What would you suggest for a successful and profitable business progression, when it comes to app development? How do you define the factors influenced you to make this choice?

We suggest keeping an eye on clients' requirements and adapting accordingly. We stay up-to-date with the latest web development technologies to deliver solutions that meet our client’s expectations in the best possible way.

How do you scheme your pricing model? How do you fix your budget?

We work with different pricing models as per our client’s needs and requirements. We offer SAAS-based affordable and flexible subscription plans to emerging startups and SMEs. When deciding the overall cost, we consider several factors, including the project's complexity, the required tech stack, development team size, and other factors. Then, as per our client's needs, requirements, and budget, we decide the cost of the web development.

How helpful are the designs and app development by Hyperlocal Cloud for your clients in enhancing their business?

We always develop an application from our client’s perspective and business needs. Our motto is to develop not only an app with an attractive design but also an app that is profitable for our client’s business. We have developed and delivered more than 100 applications, including travel apps, eCommerce apps, social apps, food delivery apps, and many more.

What according to you are the best practices to attain client satisfaction?

To achieve maximum client satisfaction, communication is the key. Until we don’t understand what they need, we cannot provide the development solutions they are expecting from us. So, be transparent in communication with the clients and work as per their needs, requirements, and budget.

How do you update your business system to be in pace with technological advancements?

In order to stay up-to-date with technological advancement, I conduct workshops where everyone can discuss innovation and explore what the future holds. I constantly alter our management strategies to keep up with emerging technologies.

What are your thoughts about progressive web apps and Internet of Things for the Ecommerce industry?

Progressive web apps and the Internet of Things are the future of web development. They help companies to deliver highly engaging user experiences while at the same time reaching new user bases.
