“We were looking for a specialized partner who enables us to develop our app with speed and flexibility, so we can better serve the Eurovision fans across the globe,“ says Dave Goodman, ESC Digital and Communications Manager for Contest organizers, the European Broadcasting Union.
“We definitely got all of that in Choicely, and more,” Goodman emphasizes.
With Choicely, the app can be built without coding, using a visual drag and drop interface instead – like Wix or Wordpress for mobile apps.
