Safety app wins awards

DoneSafe was recognised as the ‘Best design studio with less than five employees’ and the ‘Gold winner in the business tools category’ at the AUS [app] Design 2015 Awards in October. The award was presented to DoneSafe CEO Matthew Browne by the founder of Design100, Mark Bergin.

The Best Design Studio award is one of the most comprehensive, based on an aggregate score across unique nominated projects. DoneSafe scored this award in the category of small business and the Design Champion award went to the Domain Group for both its high quality and volume of design work.

The founders of DoneSafe said the app was built out of necessity as all of them had felt the frustration as business owners of using compliance software that was overly complex, expensive and that users did not want to use (unless enforced!). This was the reason why the company set about creating a compliance solution that focused not just on functionality but also on the user experience.

“Our design is meant to be seamless and functional,” said Browne. “Ultimately, we were looking to build something that both works well and looks great, and our growing client base agrees.”

The AUS [app] Design awards highlight the economic impact and significant role of apps in achieving successful business and social outcomes across a broad spectrum of industries. Originally established in Australia, they now span four continents and are presented in the US, UK and Asia.
