Case Study: Olo achieves faster, high-quality restaurant app delivery with Microsoft Corporation's Visual Studio App Center and Xamarin

Olo uses mobile DevOps to power 150+ restaurant ordering programs and apps

Olo, a U.S.-based medium-sized consumer goods company, needed a faster, more reliable way to build custom-branded iOS and Android ordering apps for more than 150 restaurant brands and millions of users. After early struggles with another JavaScript-based framework that slowed feature delivery, Olo turned to Microsoft Corporation’s Xamarin tools, including Visual Studio App Center and Visual Studio Tools for Xamarin, to support its mobile DevOps strategy.

Microsoft Corporation helped Olo fully automate its development and release pipeline, add automated UI testing, and deploy and monitor brand-specific apps more efficiently. The result was a stable native app experience, faster time to market, and strong user satisfaction, with Olo reporting average app store ratings of 4+ stars across its brands and the ability to support 150+ restaurant ordering programs.
