Our take
Voodoo is a leader in the mobile gaming market. The company, which is the world's number one mobile game developer in terms of downloads, creates and publishes mobile games for casual players, with releases including Paper.io, Snake VS Block, Flappy Dunk, and Dune!
Voodoo oversees an inordinate data ecosystem, hence for its business to succeed, it needs to be data-ware and operationally responsive at all times. In order to be so, the company has partnered with oolo, a platform that improves data tracking with automated monitoring.
Voodoo believes in continuous improvement of processes and sharing best practices. Its culture is based on its strategy: achieve excellence by creating and publishing hit games and hiring great talent. Several funding rounds have fuelled product expansion towards gaming apps while consolidating its technological infrastructure to support this growth.
