SolveIt

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the co-founder and product manager of BFreeTV, a TV streaming service.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with SolveIt?

We wanted to develop mobile and web apps so that customers could stream from our platform all over the world.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

SolveIT helped us with both the discovery and business analysis phases. We had an idea of what we wanted and provided examples of similar applications. From there, the team helped us to create our vision and a plan for our project.

They developed the mobile versions of the app, using Swift for iOS and Kotlin for Android. For the web application, SolveIT used PHP. Afterward, the team handled testing. 

The team also delivered the design aspects. We provided a guidebook and logo, which they used to create custom designs for the applications.

What is the team composition?

In total, we worked with about six people. We had a project manager, who was our main point of contact, as well as two iOS developers, two Android developers, and one PHP developer.

How did you come to work with SolveIt?

One of my colleagues recommended SolveIT. I spoke to the project manager and he was very professional, so we decided to partner with them.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent €28,000 (approximately $30,000 USD) .

What is the status of this engagement?

The project took place from May-November 2018.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

The application, which is available in both Apple and Google stores, is well-used by customers locally. It’s functional and reliable, and we’re satisfied with their work. 

SolveIT doesn’t provide us with ongoing support services, but they’re willing to help us from time to time when we need to fix things according to our processes, which we also appreciate.

How did SolveIt perform from a project management standpoint?

I was impressed by their project management. The whole process was very transparent, and the team was very responsive. They used Jira, which made keeping up with SolveIT’s progress very clear. To communicate, we used Slack, and the project manager was always in touch when we needed anything.

What did you find most impressive about them?

We really appreciated their work in the discovery phase. We had an idea from a business point of view, but they made some recommendations from a technology point of view that took future usage into account. Their recommendations were very helpful. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

The only disappointment was the project timeline. We expected it would be completed within four months but they delivered in 5 ½ months, though some of the delays were on our side. If we have any other projects, we’ll definitely go to SolveIT.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I definitely recommend using them. They did their research on the industry and business processes. SolveIT can really deliver software solutions that fit your expectations and even exceed them.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m a project manager for software development at a company called Dynamaze.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with SolveIt?

We required additional software development resources to work on the healthcare management mobile app that we built. We needed help building a web backend.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We developed a web application with SolveIt. Their team built and integrated a web dashboard into the mobile app’s ecosystem. We created a design for the frontend that the developer from SolveIt implemented. Also, their team connected the web application’s backend with the mobile platform. They helped to create different user roles for admins using the system. The product also had basic functionalities such as displaying tables based on data recorded in the system.

What is the team composition?

We had two people from SolveIt working on the project. A web developer and the CEO worked with us.

How did you come to work with SolveIt?

We searched for contractors to interview. We heard good reviews from another company that had worked with SolveIt. We interviewed them and felt that they showed a good level of expertise. Their team showed reliability, which was delivered.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent between $15,000–$20,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We began working together in June 2019 and finished the project at the beginning of September.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

We didn’t need to invest much time in fixing bugs because the quality of their code was good. We were satisfied with their work and finished the project earlier than expected. Now, the dashboard’s in real healthcare organizations. Their team was reliable and experienced, so I would recommend working with SolveIt.

How did SolveIt perform from a project management standpoint?

We used JIRA to track the project and finished the project ahead of the deadline. We liked their communication style. Communication was constant and great, which is really important for a project. Their team was transparent and responded to all our questions fast.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their experience, communication style, and transparency set them apart from the competition.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, we got more than expected. SolveIt was great.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I recommend working with them for web development. They’re experts that communicate clearly and provide transparent processes.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the CEO of a product development company, based in NYC.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire SolveIt?

We were looking for a reliable partner who could fill the gap in specific mobile technologies, a partner who could provide us with top-notch mobile engineers when we needed additional iOS and Android development resources.

What were your goals for this project?

Of course, we were looking for a partner who would be able to deliver for mobile and IoT devices solutions with high quality, on time and on budget, using technologies that would fit the whole project stack. We worked with SolveIt on multiple projects during our collaboration. One of the main tasks was to develop mobile & IoT apps that would integrate with the existing web-based solution.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

SolveIt earned a reputation as a reliable solution provider for Healthcare Industry. That’s why when we needed a partner to develop the mobile and IoT app in this domain, we went with them. During our initial discussions, we came to a mutual understanding in regard to the project needs, timelines and the budget. We also spent time outlining communication and development processes to ensure our success.

Describe the project in detail.

During this period with the help of SolveIt, we accomplished several projects in the Healthcare domain, such as tracking sport activities, data analytics, gym aggregator, etc.

As for the technical side of our cooperation – mobile projects were required to be implemented using native technologies, Kotlin for Android, Swift for iOS and watchOS. A pixel-perfect design implementation was required, and, as it was already mentioned, seamless integration between the mobile and web apps was important.

What was the team composition?

SolveIt provided a dedicated Project Manager for all communication and planning and two iOS Developers and two Android Developers for engineering and development.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The apps they delivered met all expectations and technical requirements.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

They strictly followed timelines and the communication was smooth. If they ran into issues, they would alert us immediately and have someone to take care of them as soon as possible. I am enjoying the collaboration between our companies.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

SolveIt is truly about Research and Development. They deploy high-quality solutions by using top-notch technologies. SolveIt always finds ways to improve and optimize the solutions they work on. This is noticeable even during the planning stage – they think about the future of the solution, and set up a structure that would be easier to maintain in the future.

Plus, at one of the project, we needed to speed up the development process. SolveIt was ready to assist us with extra working hours. That helped us to finish everything even within the shifted time frame.

Are there any areas for improvement?

We were satisfied with them during our collaborations.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the business owner at Family Dental Center in Minsk, Belarus.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire SolveIt?

We focused on increasing the loyalty of current patients and creating a tool (mobile app) to attract new ones. After discussing the tasks with the SolveIt team, we decided to build native mobile apps for iOS and Android.

What were your goals for this project?

The apps had to have an easy-to-use dashboard for managing and controlling all the information about treatment in the dental center. We would achieve this by creating test apps and then pushing them to the Play Market and Apple Store. We also wanted to develop a dynamic survey to solicit reviews from clients.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We selected SolveIt through an interview process. I communicated with several candidates, but SolveIt was the best choice because of both the budget and the proposed ideas.

Describe the project in detail.

The project consists of an Android app, an iOS app, and a dashboard. The layout was prepared by their UX/UI designer. The company also tested and launched the apps into the Play and App stores. Now, SolveIt continues to support our apps and keep in touch with us.

What was the team composition?

We worked with an overall project manager and discussed the layout of the app with their UX/UI designer. There were also talks with the CEO, initially. For the actual development, we contracted one coder each for the backend, iOS, and Android solutions. We also added a programmer when we decided to build the dashboard.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Customer loyalty has become noticeably better, resulting in a larger number of patients returning a second time. Clients who had already used our services have rated the app and its features positively.

I would also like to note that the dashboard is an excellent tool for managing and changing the main information about the dental clinic wherever I am. Moreover, dentists in the clinic no longer need to do a lot of paperwork to keep records of patient admissions. It’s enough to make appropriate changes to the dashboard.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The workflow was well-organized and very transparent, and I’m glad about our communication during all the joint work. The developers understood our goals and stayed available through email, phone, and messaging.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

SolveIt is a really good team of professionals—they know their job. I liked the way their manager and developers communicated with us and how they helped develop our idea. They were timely, skilled, experienced, and project driven.

Are there any areas for improvement?

I have no idea what they could improve on in their work. They accomplished things that I thought were impossible. I’m ready to suggest them to my colleagues.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the CEO of Zett Poker Club.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire SolveIT?

We needed to create native iOS and Android apps and an admin panel, as well as a loyalty program. Additionally, our website needed a new design with a user-friendly interface to attract customers who aren’t familiar with the latest technology.

What were your goals for this project?

We were aiming to attract new members, build deeper connections with our old members, and promote our service to the next level.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I had conversations with a few candidates to determine if they knew how to build a successful project. SolveIT’s impressed me by developing a plan that both of us would be comfortable with. Moreover, their terms and budget were exactly what I was looking for. They were also recommended by some of my colleagues.

Describe the project in detail.

After discussing my goals with SolveIT’s CEO, we decided on native apps with a mobile admin panel so I could control the product and change some of its content myself.

Their UX/UI designer created mockups of the apps, which they used in the subsequent development. They built native Android and iOS apps, tested them, and launched them in the Play and App stores. Since updating our website (a service they proposed to us), they’ve continued to support the apps.

What was the team composition?

We work with an assigned project manager, a UX/UI designer, a backend coder, an iOS coder, an Android coder, and a website programmer. I can also talk to the CEO if I need to.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Our cash-games and tournaments have started much faster and featured new players in the three months since the apps launched. The admin panel has brought me peace of mind by providing all the statistical information right in the app and allowing me to make changes myself. SolveIT takes care of all the technical matters, which means I don’t have to worry about them.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Their communication is amazing. If I want something, SolveIT jumps on it. They don’t drag out tasks, and everything is delivered on time. They respond to things the second I mention them. I’m satisfied with their Android and iOS developers, and the project manager provides me with reports on our status.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

They move ahead with clear milestones in mind, working proactively and answering questions promptly. I have to say, they've exceeded my expectations, and I’m ready to recommend them to my colleagues.

Are there any areas for improvement?

There’s nothing they need to do differently. One of the reasons I chose them is that they had everything I needed.
