Needs

As part of OAG’s acquisition of real-time flight information B2B business flightview Inc, OAG took responsibility for flightview’s flight tracking app. Despite ongoing success a mixture of increased competition, lack of significant updates and legacy technology debt had led to the app beginning to show its age, evidenced by the static user base and revenues.

Results

Massive Rocket worked side-by-side with the OAG team and released critical bug fixes within the first weeks of the project. This directly increased user engagement and satisfaction. The team has now partnered deeply with OAG to deliver core improvements to the platforms such as application stabilisation, new feature releases and user complaint resolution.

We saw major improvements to the app store ratings in the first 3 months of the projects and these are trending upwards with each new release. This approach has also re-activated thousands of dormant users and reduced the load on the application support team.
