Vizitor - Interview with the developer of a fantastic app

Did you have any prior development or coding experience?

Yes, I have started my journey as an open-source developer and I still contribute to many open-source projects. I have been active in software development for 6+ years and I'm also currently managing the team for 'Vizitor'.

What was the most challenging aspect of developing mobile app?

The most challenging part of the application development was to make it offline-first so in case of network issues, visitors can still smoothly check-in into the offices.

Gaurav Saini is the director at Viithiisys Technologies, having 6 years of work experience as a full-stack JavaScript developer and is actively involved in building products and solving real-life problems. Currently, leading the such product 'Vizitor' which solves painful check-in process for visitors. He is an Apache contributor and a committer to Roller, Fineract, and Ofbiz projects. Gaurav is a proud author of his book 'Hybrid Mobile Development with Ionic'. He has been an active speaker at multiple conferences like Techdays, ApacheCon, GSoC Mentor Summit, Mifos Summit. As an open-source enthusiast he has been mentoring GSoC and GCI interns for the last 4 years.

Name a few of your favorite apps and reason you love them.

Trello, Uber and Wealthy. One of the main reasons is the UI/UX of these applications and how user-friendly they are.

How long have you been working on this app?

I have been working on 'Vizitor' for almost 4 months to this date.

What need of the user did you have in mind when developing this app?

Easing the process of visitors check-in is our main goal. This way the app will also minimize the burden of the organizations with their daily visitor management, data records and it will allow them to secure their data. In this journey we are also making efforts to make this entire process paperless as the green initiative.

In what way do you think your app is better than similar apps on the market? Please describe in detail what innovation you think you bring and what you are proud of in your app.

The UI/UX of 'Vizitor' is simply amazing and easy to understand. We have developed this app by keeping the user’s need and perspective in mind. 'Vizitor' is not about innovating something new, but it’s about solving the current problem where it is difficult to maintain proper data and records of visitors on paper. 'Vizitor' is cost effective and worth a try when compared to other such similar apps of its kind.

What are your future plans and expected features of the coming new versions of this app?

In future, we would be categorizing the app into various segments like for offices, salons, schools, etc. and the each one having its own specialized features.

Assuming new users of your app are reading this page. What do you want to ask them to do (contact you about X, Share the app, etc.)?

We would love to get feedback from readers for 'Vizitor' on the Play Store/App Store, and they are welcome to email me personally on [email protected]. I would be thankful if they could ask their family and friends to use the app and let us know their reviews. If any of the readers know any such place where manual check-ins are done and 'Vizitor' can perfectly fit there, kindly send us the name and contact of the place, we would like to get in touch with them.
