In 2019, COX decided it was time to re-design a native iOS app used by their sales representatives. This app is an integral part of their sales pitch and process, enabling sales team members to identify client needs and offer the right solutions. At the time, the product had a number of limitations.
Not only was the app limited to compatibility with Apple products, it was also difficult to update. Every time the COX marketing team needed to change text or a visual aspect, they had to assemble a development team to make the changes and deploy them.
Seeking a partner that could help develop an improved version, COX reached out to Periscope, a Minnesota advertising agency. Their goal was to engage on a cross platform mobile development to launch a more flexible, agile app compatible with any cell phone or tablet.
The development of a 100% customizable app
The development of a 100% customizable app
Octobot and Periscope go way back. We’ve worked together on numerous projects for various companies, including COX. Periscope specializes in marketing and design so they didn’t count on inhouse development to build digital products, hence our partnership. When COX presented their software needs, Periscope knew they would need our tech expertise to bring the envisioned solution to fruition.
While Periscope provided the designs, our team translated them into software. As COX already had a CMS in place to manage content, the Adobe Experience Manager, our solution integrated with their platform to easily access texts, images, and other data. The goal was to create a full customizable product so the app would adapt faster and better to COX marketing initiatives.
How it works
Setup
The app poses a series of questions to understand consumer internet and cable needs.
Customized solution
Based on the answers, the system then recommends a bundle of tv, internet, and/or other services. The geolocation feature checks user locations to offer the most accurate bundle cost.
Digital brochure
Users can also check out all COX services in detail in the app’s “Products” section, which works as a digital brochure.

We chose React Native for this product, a cross-platform framework that generates high-performance, consistently efficient apps. We put a lot of focus on responsiveness to make sure it looked great on any device.
Our developers collaborated with the Periscope design team and the Product Owner to ensure we delivered the product in record time, and we did, in only 2 months. At some point, our devs traveled to the US to work side by side with Periscope staff.
The onsite work was key in making informed decisions and aligning the product’s technical and business aspects. Throughout our visit we worked together on requirements and improvements before launch.
