How Liberty Mutual built their first mobile app with Mendix

One of the largest insurers in the US was looking to roll out a new mobile app for its group insurance customers. Chris Woodman, an IT manager at the firm, described at Mendix World the process they went through and how Mendix was a key element to their success.

“In 2011, we wanted to develop a mobile app, but we didn’t know what we were getting into, and we had no previous mobile development experience,” he said. “Two months later we had our app deployed.” Mendix awarded the project as the outstanding effort of the year at the conference.

There are other entries that I authored during the show, and here are their links. Mendix definitely has an interesting story to tell. Here are the original stories that I filed and since then taken off their blog.

  1. Hmm it seems like your site ate my first comment
    (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
    I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to everything. Do you have any recommendations for novice blog writers? I’d genuinely appreciate it.

    • Sorry it is hard to tell what is spam and what is genuine. Write what you know and are passionate about, write regularly, cross develop your blog with mailing lists and social media, solicit comments and reply to them on other sites, linking back to you. that should get you started.
