new york, a year in retrospect

It has been quite an exciting year in New York for me and Aycron. There were highs and lows. The lows were mostly around the beginning of 2009. The highs, around the end of 2009 and beginning of 2010.

The economical crisis in 2009 did affect us, but not as much as you would have expected. The lows were mostly because I had just moved to New York and it took me a few months to get started on Aycron’s business development.

The fact is that Aycron had one client in New York when I first arrived. Now we have four clients in New York. In February, we might have six clients. I am happy about that. It took a lot of hard work from everyone at Aycron, but the future is bright for 2010.

The number of clients is not that important. What’s important is that our clients are happy with our work. They are happy to recommend us to prospective clients and honestly talk about their experience with Aycron.

It is hard work to keep our clients happy, but we go the extra mile. And it feels good to hear what they have to say about our efforts. I think we need to get even better at keeping our clients happy and that’s why we are hiring! (in Buenos Aires)

In 2009 we became partners of Engine Yard, worldwide leader in Ruby on Rails applications hosting and big supporter of the RoR community.

In 2010 we became partners of Fluid Intent, which will help Aycron’s business development in New York in the future.

We plan to continue rocking it for our clients. We want to keep them happy, as they are our best source of projects. We plan to build and release a few products/services this year, something that we started on 2009.

We plan to increase our development team as much as possible. But this will be a gradual process that will let us assure the quality of our work. All of this is possible thanks to our new clients in New York and the great engineers at Aycron.
