ZAPP
A cloud-based app creation platform



ZAPP



Lead Product Manager & UX Director for CMS and Client App



Zapp is a leading cloud-based platform for app developers in the media space. Content owners can develop apps, change them on the fly, and maintain them easily. Zapp offers an open plugin environment, allowing exponential growth of capabilities on multiple platforms, enabling quick adaptation to the ever-changing market.

I led the product from its early stage. Working closely with Zapp’s tech lead, we defined the roadmap, prioritized each new capability to be introduced, following the needs of Zapp stakeholders and the market. I defined detailed product stories, designed the UX and UI of each feature, created design concepts and prototypes. As a strong team player, I worked closely with the client and front-end developers to identify challenges and schedule impacts.

My outbound activity included a bi-monthly meeting with Zapp stakeholders, where I introduced new features. In addition I developed an app for feature announcements, aimed at Zapp’s customers.

App development time within the company has been reduced by half following my team and my work.

Following are a few examples of the product design concepts that I introduced or manifested:



Immediate Preview



The key principles of Zapp product design are modularity and simplicity. Simplicity is achieved and demonstrated here by allowing an immediate preview of the screen composition and design. (emulated content)



Single Configuration



Simplicity is key to each step of the app creation. It is achieved by allowing one single configuration for both portrait & landscape, on both iOS and Android platforms.



Sandbox vs. Production



Multiple layouts per version allows a user to test different versions of her/his design. The 'Layouts' enabled a sandbox and production environment, where users defined on which version s/he is working on.



Zapp Marketplace



The Marketplace is a repository of all the plugins that can be configured in an app. They are ordered by categories such as Analytics plugins, Monetization plugins, CMS plugins, UI plugins and many more. Users of Zapp install and configure the plugins from the marketplace on to their app. Developers will be able to sell their own developed plugins via the marketplace. The Marketplace is showcasing the core of Zapp modularity, enabling growth by opening the platform to external developers. It offer vast flexibility by allowing a wide range of integrations via Zapp.
