Discovery Workshop

Discovery Workshop

Turning ideas into powerful solutions

Every great solution starts with a genuine idea. However, not all ideas evolve into what we define as “success.” To avoid such setbacks, Adware Technologies places great emphasis on a custom-designed Discovery Workshop, tailored specifically for you. Let’s explore it further!

The Purpose

The Purpose

"The goal of the Discovery Workshop is to educate our clients, enabling them to provide comprehensive information through brainstorming sessions before the development cycle begins. This approach helps us deliver a robust, unique, and innovative solution with stunning UI/UX design, utilizing the most advanced technologies."

The core purpose is not just to gather project requirements, but also to understand client expectations and support them with our expertise and high-quality solutions.

Forefronts of Discovery Workshop

Discovery process

Understanding

We ensure that our entire team gains a full understanding of our client’s business, vision, and goals.

Discovery process 2

Research

This phase enables us to make informed assumptions and conduct research on any aspect that may require a different perspective.

Discovery process 3

Implementation

This step allows our UI/UX and development teams to thoroughly review all details, ensuring flawless deliverables.

This gives our UI/UX and development teams the opportunity to carefully review all details, ensuring flawless outcomes.

In simpler terms, the Discovery Workshop is the stage before starting development, where the client and project team gather and share important project details. This information exchange can happen through in-person meetings, off-site discussions, or online conferences.

Why Clients Shouldn’t Skip the Discovery Workshop?

"Imagine you're a client looking to have your mobile app developed. After some research, you agree on terms with a reputable software development company. Since you already have a clear idea of what your app should look like and how it should function, you decide to skip the project discovery workshop due to tight deadlines, time, and budget constraints. Instead, you hand over the specifications document to the technical team and set a specific deadline for delivery and product launch."
In this scenario, the software development team has no further questions and begins the design and development process to deliver the mobile app on time. Weeks or months pass quickly, and soon you have a stunning mobile app ready for launch. You take it live, eagerly awaiting the first visitors, filled with anticipation and excitement.

A couple of months later, analytics reveal that users are not engaging with your beautifully designed app, and conversions are far below your expectations. By this point, you've likely spent most or all of your capital on development, leaving you with insufficient funds to improve the app due to a poor return on investment. In this moment, you’ll probably find yourself thinking, “Something went terribly wrong.”

UI/UX Designing
The UI/UX design team may be the biggest thinkers, and while we have top talent delivering exceptional designs week after week, we believe that clients play an equally important role in the Discovery sessions to ensure the success of the end product. Key details are crucial for the design team’s thinking and visualization process. If you don’t want important details to get lost in translation, it’s essential to plan the process carefully. This ensures that all the features you expect to be developed are included in the product’s roadmap and user journeys. Smooth communication between the design team and other project stakeholders is key to achieving this.
It’s about “Designing Together”
This is where we transform our ideas into stunning designs—the first step in bringing your vision to life. A successful collaboration between clients, project analysts, and UI/UX designers can help in the following ways:
