Our Practice Areas

Uplancer brings together amazing talent from a wide variety of backgrounds. When you work with us, you get a team of experts with a lot of digital talent.

Design

Our designers, animators, and UX/UI professionals are here to bring your vision to life. Your customers make decisions on whether they like your website and marketing collateral in micro, subconscious moments. We focus on the most pleasing design and user experience to get your customers where they need to be and take the actions you want them to complete.

App Development

The Development and QA team at Uplancer is focused on one thing: bringing your solution to life through a web or mobile app. We embrace change and we do what needs to be done. We’re not about creating code-as-artwork. We’re giving life to a beautiful design.

Quality Assurance

Bugs exist. Things break. We can accept that. Our QA Team is the most delightfully anal-retentive group of folks you’ve ever met. We get it right the first time.

Marketing / Brand Strategy

Who is my customer? What competitive pressure am I facing? What is my message? How am I driving demand? These are all questions our marketing strategy team will tackle for you. Marketing is like asking someone on a date, and branding is the reason they say yes. We’ll make sure your brand is positioned and communicating all the right things.

Local IQ™

Are you competing across countries? Do your users speak a variety of languages? At Uplancer, we don’t believe in machine translation. We believe in providing the best user experience. That’s why our proprietary and innovative Local IQ™ approach will localize your content, collateral, website, etc. with both language and cultural cue’s that your customers expect.
