Can you provide a brief overview of your professional background and how you became involved with Mobikasa?
Prateek Sachdev: Absolutely! My professional journey has been quite a thrilling one. With a BBA in Design & Management from Parsons School of Design, I embarked on my journey into the professional world with a 4 year stint at Versace USA, where I managed national retail and store operations. I always wanted to start a venture of my own and founded Mobikasa in 2011.
The story behind the company name is an interesting one. We combined the words “Mobi” (mobile) and “Kasa” (home in Spanish), the name expresses our goal of creating a friendly environment for mobile apps.
Over the years we have developed over 200 custom mobile apps for our clients and each project adds a special flair to our expanding portfolio. Our services go beyond just developing mobile apps, we also offer web development, digital marketing, e-commerce solutions and accessibility compliance.
My experience in design has helped guide our creative team at Mobikasa to consistently deliver world class designs. Our work goes beyond developing apps—we make experiences. Our goal is not only to satisfy but to leave our clients impressed with the quality of our service.
In a competitive market, what sets Mobikasa apart from other e-commerce and web development companies?
Prateek Sachdev: Well, when it comes to standing out in this competitive market, we at Mobikasa are all about a distinctive approach. We use innovation, sustainability and our clients as our compass points as we navigate the digital terrain.
As I had told you earlier, our services extend beyond e-commerce and web development. We provide an end-to-end digital marketing strategy, technology solutions, and e-commerce businesses in a consultative, integrated portfolio. It is like having all of your digital needs met from A to Z.
We are committed to lifelong learning, which gives us a competitive advantage. We make significant investments to ensure that our staff remains up to date and we establish strategic alliances with new and developing tech businesses. There are no compromises when it comes to cybersecurity, client-centricity and sustainable business practices.
We are here to break the rules, always pushing the envelope to ensure that our clients stay ahead in this ever-changing digital landscape. At Mobikasa, we bug you, have fun & get serious at times too!
Given the dynamic nature of the tech industry, how does Mobikasa stay abreast of the latest trends in e-commerce, web, and apps development?
Prateek Sachdev: For us at Mobikasa, staying ahead of the curve is crucial in a rapidly changing tech sector. We make it happen by emphasising continuous learning for our entire team. It is more than a checkbox; it is a pledge to keep up with the latest trends in e-commerce, web and mobile app development.
That is not all, though. Our satisfaction does not end with internal events. By forming strategic alliances with forward-thinking companies, we actively seek out emerging technologies. It all comes down to delivering the newest, most creative solutions right to our clients’ doors.
And let us not forget about priorities: we never compromise on client-centricity. Our quest for cutting-edge technology is driven by our clients requirements. Cybersecurity is not a negotiable point. We have put strong safeguards in place because being ahead of the game means keeping everything safe.
In essence, Mobikasa is not just keeping up; we are leading the charge. We do not just follow the latest trends; we create them. Our ability to leverage the latest technologies is essential to our clients success, and we are all in.
What development methodologies does Mobikasa follow, and how do they contribute to the company’s efficiency and project success?
Prateek Sachdev: We at Mobikasa take a dynamic approach to development, maintaining a balance between professionalism and innovation. We are big fans of agile methodologies; it is more than just a buzzword to us; it is a way of life.
Agile project management is similar to having a roadmap that can be adjusted to the unique circumstances of each project. It all comes down to working together, being adaptable, and producing real results in shorter cycles. With this strategy, we can remain flexible and respond rapidly to any client inputs and changes.
We continuously improve and refine our work through frequent feedback loops and iterations with our clients. It is not just about reaching goals; it is about consistently raising the bar for ourselves and, by extension, our clients.
Agile approaches make sure that we do not get bogged down in a strict plan that is out of date the moment it is drafted. We constantly look for ways to improve the efficiency and flow of the development process and are proactive and responsive in doing so.
In a nutshell, our approach is not just about meeting project goals; it is about exceeding them. The key is to make the trip just as effective and influential as the final destination.
How does Mobikasa ensure the quality and reliability of its delivered products, especially in the context of e-commerce platforms?
Prateek Sachdev: Quality and reliability are our bread and butter at Mobikasa, especially when it comes to creating top-tier e-commerce platforms.
We put everything through rigorous testing before it sees the light of day – functionality, usability, you name it. Standard compliance is not enough; exceeding them is the goal. We desire an ideal and intuitive e-commerce platform.
However, it goes farther than that. Every detail matters to us. Our team makes sure that every line of code is both elegant and functional. We are talking about a user experience that goes above and beyond.
Here’s the pro move: we do not just sit back and wait for problems to arise. We take the initiative. Even after it is launched, your platform will remain in top condition thanks to our ongoing maintenance and observation. Consider us your quality guardians in the ever-changing world of e-commerce.

We are excited to replicate our success story into these regions, providing cutting-edge solutions and expertise to businesses looking for digital excellence.
