At that time, we started getting inquiries of mobile apps on very tight budgets, so we started researching for a CMS like WordPress for mobile apps. However, we were unable to find anything, and that\u2019s when we decided to develop our own CMS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of the leadership team transitioned from the new media service business to a product business for the mobile app. Today we have over 220+ team members working on the various Appy Pie products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"2-what-gaps-did-you-see-in-the-market-that-led-you-to-launch-appy-pie\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_What_gaps_did_you_see_in_the_market_that_led_you_to_launch_Appy_Pie\"><\/span><strong>2) What gaps did you see in the market that led you to launch Appy Pie?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I have always been intrigued by technology, and I understand the edge technology can lend to a business of any scale or size. When I saw some of the most brilliant ideas not seeing the light of the day, solely due to the lack of access to technology, I knew that I could use my knowledge to fill this void. That\u2019s when I conceptualized Appy Pie as a platform that would democratize technology and make it accessible and affordable for all. The idea was to let the businesses skip the hassles of coding to get tools that would empower their businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"3-could-you-tell-us-about-how-appy-pie-has-evolved-since-its-launch-in-2012\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Could_you_tell_us_about_how_Appy_Pie_has_evolved_since_its_launch_in_2012\"><\/span><strong>3) Could you tell us about how Appy Pie has evolved since its launch in 2012?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Create Your Mobile App Without Coding | Best App Builder 2021\" width=\"788\" height=\"443\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NHSirjg2SXY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Since its launch in 2012, Appy Pie has continued to expand its product portfolio. After the flagship product \u2013 Appy Pie AppMakr \u2013 received incredible popularity, we have launched an entire bouquet of no-code business solutions. Some of our most well-received products include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Appy Pie Connect<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.saasworthy.com\/product\/appy-pie-chatbot\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Appy Pie Chatbot<\/a><\/li><li>Appy Pie Design<\/li><li>Appy Pie Livechat<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Another area that we have found encouraging results in is the world of enterprise. Appy Pie Plus, our enterprise solutions platform was launched recently and has been received with enthusiasm among the target audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"4-could-you-share-how-many-customers-do-you-have-now-and-what-kind-of-industries-are-using-appy-pie-the-most\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Could_you_share_how_many_customers_do_you_have_now_And_what_kind_of_industries_are_using_Appy_Pie_the_most\"><\/span><strong>4) Could you share how many customers do you have now?

We offer the most competitive pricing in the segment, and one does not need to run from pillar to post for multiple business solutions. They can get all they want on our platform by following simple DIY steps. We believe in giving all an intuitive experience, which means around-the-clock assistance from start to finish. We further help the businesses with app submission to app stores from the onset to the final step, which is a standalone service in the market. There is also a provision in place to provide real-time updates on the app developed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"688\" height=\"496\" src=\"https:\/\/images.saasworthy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Appy-Pie-Fast-Native-Apps-SaaSworthy-SaaS-Talks.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3228\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dev.saasworthy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Appy-Pie-Fast-Native-Apps-SaaSworthy-SaaS-Talks.jpg 688w, https:\/\/dev.saasworthy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Appy-Pie-Fast-Native-Apps-SaaSworthy-SaaS-Talks-400x288.jpg 400w, https:\/\/dev.saasworthy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Appy-Pie-Fast-Native-Apps-SaaSworthy-SaaS-Talks-104x75.jpg 104w, https:\/\/dev.saasworthy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Appy-Pie-Fast-Native-Apps-SaaSworthy-SaaS-Talks-390x281.jpg 390w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 688px) 100vw, 688px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Appy Pie provides scalable business solutions that aim at levelling the playfield for small businesses, startups, and entrepreneurs.

No-code development ticks all the critical boxes \u2013 low cost, low complexity, and high-speed solutions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, our total paid app subscriptions saw a meteoric rise of 586 percent as the pandemic broke out in the second quarter of 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"8-can-you-talk-about-your-experience-of-building-a-global-product-out-of-india\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Can_you_talk_about_your_experience_of_building_a_global_product_out_of_India\"><\/span><strong>8) Can you talk about your experience of building a global product out of India?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As an IT-based company, there are no global boundaries. All that we need to focus on is the target audience and their needs. Another important aspect that we pay due attention to is making the platform multilingual. The platform currently serves Spanish, German, Portuguese, French, Arabic, Italian, and Japanese languages. This has helped us in catering to the global audience better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"9-whats-next-for-appy-pie-any-new-features-that-youre-working-on\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Whats_next_for_Appy_Pie_Any_new_features_that_youre_working_on\"><\/span><strong>9) What&#8217;s next for Appy Pie?
