Case Study Sand & Silicon
“L-One is a reliable partner when it comes to ideation, conception and implementation”
Very close collaboration at the start of the project
“In the process analysis and conception phase, L-One impressed us with their extensive experience in this area. The development team listened to us very carefully and not only understood our requirements, but also scrutinized them.”

Sand & Silicon has no experience or expertise in software development and therefore needed a reliable partner to guide them through the entire process. In the initial phase of analyzing and designing the requirements, Sand & Silicon and L-One worked very closely together. The coordination by the German L-One team played a decisive role here. At the end of the project, before releasing, the teams also worked very closely and efficiently together in an iterative process to eliminate teething troubles and make the final fine-tuning.
The process automation in the market research enabled Sand & Silicon to save more than 60% of resources in some of their processes.
