How KoçSistem Future-Proofed Its Mobile CI/CD with Appcircle
Learn how KoçSistem future-proofed its mobile CI/CD pipeline with Appcircle, gaining scalability, faster delivery cycles, and robust security in mobile app development.
Overview
While KoçSistem has effectively managed the mobile DevOps pipelines of Koç Group subsidiaries, the organization recognized an opportunity to enhance efficiency and collaboration across all Koç Group companies by adopting a unified, enterprise-grade Appcircle Mobile DevOps platform. This strategic move ensures a standardized approach to mobile app development and deployment across the group.
The decision was further reinforced by Microsoft's announcement to retire Visual Studio App Center, prompting the need for a future-proof solution that would provide long-term stability and support. In this process, we partnered with Appcircle in the mobile DevOps space to achieve a more efficient and sustainable solution.
Our transition to the Appcircle Mobile DevOps platform was a strategic move to ensure that we stay ahead in mobile development to ensure providing future ready solutions for all of our customers including Koç Group companies. With this unified platform, we have improved efficiency, strengthened collaboration, and created a secure and productive mobile DevOps environment for the future. This partnership aligns perfectly with digital transformation vision we committed for our customers and reinforces our commitment providing scalable solutions for the entire group as well as our other customers.

Challenges
While KoçSistem's subsidiaries have effectively managed their mobile CI/CD pipelines, the organization identified an opportunity to further enhance efficiency and collaboration by adopting a unified, enterprise-grade platform.
Microsoft's announcement to retire Visual Studio App Center, prompting the need for a future-proof solution that would provide long-term stability and support.
By moving to a unified CI/CD approach, KoçSistem aimed to:
- Create a Standardized Platform: Establishing a common set of best practices across all subsidiaries to further streamline operations and reduce redundancies.
- Enhance Collaboration Across Teams: Making it easier for teams from different subsidiaries to share expertise, resources, and workflows on a centralized platform.
- Ensure Long-Term Reliability: Selecting an enterprise-focused platform that eliminates vendor shutdown risks and guarantees continued support.
- Optimize Security and Access Management: Utilize advanced security features, including Single Sign-On (SSO) and granular access controls, to safeguard sensitive information and simplify user management.
- Improve App Distribution: Leverage a flexible and efficient system for distributing applications internally and externally.
Solution: Appcircle as an all-in-one CI/CD Platform
KoçSistem selected Appcircle as its centralized mobile CI/CD and app distribution platform to replace various solutions. Appcircle provided a scalable, secure, and enterprise-ready environment that met the needs of subsidiaries, ensuring a smooth transition from existing solutions.
The key advantages of Appcircle's implementation included:
- Enterprise-Grade Stability: Unlike consumer-focused CI/CD tools, Appcircle is built for large-scale operations, ensuring reliability and long-term support. As an independent, enterprise-focused platform, Appcircle reduced the risk of service disruptions caused by external vendors shutting down.
- Standardization Across Subsidiaries: A single, all-in-one CI/CD platform across all companies improved consistency and eliminated redundant infrastructure.
- Common Authentication & Access Management: Integration with KoçSistem's identity management systems allowed for Single Sign-On (SSO) and granular access controls across subsidiaries.
- Faster & More Flexible App Distribution: A streamlined release process allowed for faster builds, improved testing process, and publish to app stores. Appcircle made it easier to share builds across internal teams and external stakeholders.
- Dedicated Enterprise Support: Appcircle offers expert support services tailored to enterprise clients, ensuring prompt assistance and guidance to address any challenges that may arise during implementation and operation.
Conclusion: A Foundation for Future Success
By unifying its mobile CI/CD operations with Appcircle, KoçSistem has taken a significant step forward in its digital transformation journey. The transition has not only enhanced efficiency and collaboration but also ensured long-term reliability in an ever-evolving technology landscape.
