XISLABS Pvt Ltd

XISLABS is a software development company based in Lahore, Pakistan, with offices in Yonkers, New York and Pinedale, Wyoming. Founded to deliver end-to-end tech solutions, the company has 8+ years in the field and claims to have worked with 160+ clients. The leadership team includes Ahmed Abbas (CEO), Abdul Ahad (CTO), and Muhammad Faizan (COO), with team leads across front-end, back-end, and mobile disciplines. The company positions itself as a cost alternative to US-based development, advertising "Silicon Valley talent at up to 70% less cost."

Services and capabilities

XISLABS offers custom software development, web and mobile applications, blockchain development, enterprise software, SaaS platforms, and DevOps services. On the web side, they build websites and web applications. Mobile work spans iOS, Android, and cross-platform apps. They market MVP development as a cost-saving approach for startups, launching with essential features first, then adding secondary features once the product gains traction.

Blockchain services include smart contracts, NFTs, Web 3.0, secure wallets, and Ethereum. They also handle UX/UI design, project management, QA and testing, and resource outsourcing (where teams work as extensions of the client's in-house staff, attending daily meetings and reporting to the client's managers).

On cost control, they cite three approaches: Agile methodology and industry-standard coding practices, launching MVPs with minimal viable features rather than over-engineering, and using DevOps strategies, automated solutions, and open-source platforms. They claim to evaluate work every two weeks with development and acceptance testing, then collect feedback before the next cycle.

How they work

XISLABS offers two main engagement models. The first is project-based: the company plans, designs, develops, tests, and deploys with full transparency and project-centric pricing. The second is dedicated team: a skilled team is deployed for time-centric pricing with an on-time, in-budget commitment. They track developer time using Harvest software and Redmine down to the minute. Before starting any project, they sign an NDA to protect IP ownership and source code. The software development lifecycle is divided into five stages: requirement gathering, software design, coding, testing and bug fixing, and maintenance.
