Live1

Live1 is a Vietnam-based software development firm operating under Israeli and Vietnamese leadership. The company works with both local Vietnamese businesses and overseas clients across various sectors, offering custom development, outsourcing, and strategic advisory. While no founding year is specified on their site, they position themselves as an established shop with "decades of experience in setting up, implementing and integrating information systems."

The team has high English proficiency and works nine hours per day, five days per week, with standby staff covering absences. The company stresses hands-on collaboration during the entire development cycle—from RFP through delivery and support—and employs both Agile and Waterfall methodologies depending on project needs.

Services and capabilities

Live1 offers custom software development, outsourcing, and outstaffing for clients ranging from startups to enterprises. On the development side, they build mobile, desktop, web, and cloud applications. The engineering process is iterative: business analysts and architects study requirements, refine business processes, and work continuously with stakeholders to deliver on time, with quality, and within budget.

Beyond code delivery, the company provides technology consultancy for startups and established firms—helping with architecture decisions, technology selection, and the transition from concept to market. They also advise on business process analysis (BPA), improvement (BPI), and management (BPM) through workflow software. For companies moving infrastructure to the cloud, Live1 offers AWS and Google Cloud consulting, design, integration, and ongoing management. They handle Ammune™ (an AI-based API protection tool) as a reseller in Vietnam and offer digital marketing services focused on brand strategy and 360-degree campaigns.

On the technology side, the stack spans open-source (PHP, Ruby on Rails, Java, JavaScript, NodeJS, Python, Flutter, React, Vue.js, Django), Microsoft (.NET, ASP.NET, WPF, Windows Forms), databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, MongoDB), and cloud platforms. They list experience across Agile and Waterfall frameworks but provide no detail on staffing models beyond willingness to place single developers or full teams.

How they work

Live1 operates a partnership model aimed at long-term engagement. They position themselves as a single point of contact, partnering with other providers only when their core expertise doesn't cover additional needs. The company works through a full lifecycle approach: concept definition, feasibility research, prototyping, development, testing, and post-launch support. On staffing, they offer outstaffing (no HR overhead for the client), dedicated offshore teams, and local Vietnamese delivery. Pricing is positioned as competitive, though no rate ranges or engagement minimums appear in the source material.

Team and credentials

Live1's leadership is Israeli and Vietnamese. The source does not specify total headcount. The development team undergoes constant training and must adhere to company quality standards throughout the project lifecycle. No certifications (ISO, SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA), partner designations (AWS certified, Shopify Plus partner), or third-party ratings (Clutch, G2) are mentioned in the available materials.

The company lists experience in wellness and fitness, healthcare (medical practices and hospitals), IT services, oil and gas, HR and payroll, travel and tourism, entertainment, hospitality, and e-commerce.
