Online Review

LANARS develops a web solution and a mobile app for an industrial facilities management company. They have engineered the hardware devices, built the app using Swift, and integrated a web management platform.

LANARS has successfully delivered high-quality work on time, meeting the client's expectations. They have communicated frequently and promptly, ensuring an effective workflow. Their excellent flexibility, cost-efficiency, high quality, and versatility of services are hallmarks of their work.

The client submitted this review online.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

Position -- CTO. A company providing solutions for industrial facilities management and daily operation and maintenance.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire LANARS?

Their team reengineered our hardware devices and integrated them with a newly developed web management platform, provided full-cycle development of a physical device, and also created a handy mobile app.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We met with LANARS representatives at a tech event, and had a couple of meetings. They impressed us with the level of involvement they provide, and an extensive portfolio of relevant cases that were successfully realized.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

At first, we worked on an overall scope of what we were trying to achieve. We are offering a monitoring and tracking ecosystem for industrial factory floors and wanted to bring our solution to the home automation market as well. LANARS helped us with planning and setting priorities, proposed a concept for a new device based on our current solution (smaller, easier-to-use by a usual consumer) and implemented a web solution (front-end and back-end), a mobile application (Swift) and provided firmware development for a new device.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We had a team of about 10 people — software developers for the web and mobile part and hardware and firmware developers for the device itself, also QA, designers and management staff, which we are extremely pleased with.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We are planning to release in the first quarter of 2023, everything works even better than our old solution, and now we’re at the phase of EU certification.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We had a lot of communication at the very beginning, their staff was actually integrated with our team. Later, they proposed weekly meetings, at the end of each scope we were presented with results and provided feedback. They invited us to their management system, where we were able to track the whole progress. Their project manager and business analyst were super responsive whenever we needed them for an update.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Deep personal engagement with our project, the versatility of services, cost and quality ratio, and flexibility.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

We didn’t notice any major disadvantages.

We send them ad-hoc maintenance tasks and urgent issues, as well as larger projects. They’ll typically receive a brief scope and then ask clarifying questions before proceeding with the solution.

What was the team composition?

I’ve mainly been in contact with our account manager, who has sent our tasks to the relevant people. LANARS has a broad skill set, so it’s great to have an account manager that understands what we want and gives good briefs to developers.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?

They’ve been our main provider for 18 months and we’ve always been perfectly happy. We have a fast and effective webpage, and LANARS responds quickly to any issue we raise. They’re always coming up with ways to solve issues more efficiently and increase our webpage’s speed.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

LANARS enabled an IoT to integrate and visualize multiple IoT inputs simultaneous with the use of AngularJS. An admin portal was built to manage the flow of data sources.

The deliverables were ready on time and the final product suits the client's needs. The team's eagerness to provide guidance and technology recommendations was most appreciated.

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

We are a big data and IoT [internet of things company]. I was the senior director of network operations for the company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with LANARS?

We needed to build a dashboard integration for different video sources. It would allow us to visualize the data coming in from different customers, making it easier to consume by our frontend engineers. LANARS helped us build our platform and backend integration.

SOLUTION

What challenge were you trying to address with LANARS?

LANARS built an admin panel which allows us to customize dashboards, as well as the engine feeding data from various monitoring sources. We aggregate data from many IoT end points, with the platform serving as a way to visualize that data.

The backend integration uses a proprietary platform owned by my company, while the frontend was built using open-source graphical libraries like Highcharts. The integration between the frontend and the backend required Node.js, while the admin panel used AngularJS, which is how we managed to display the different graphs from our backend customer data.

How did you come to work with LANARS?

We bid the project to many different companies. LANARS came back with a good plan during our initial phone calls. They were thorough and provided suggestions regarding technology.

How much have you invested with LANARS?

The project had 2–3 phases, and cost between $60,000 and $70,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with LANARS in June 2016. The project ran for 2–3 months, as we continued to add features.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Could you share any evidence that would demonstrate the productivity, quality of work, or the impact of the engagement?

I'm no longer working for the company, so I don't have access to the platform that LANARS built. It was well-used and shared to many customers who were involved with our platform. It was a successful project.

How did LANARS perform from a project management standpoint?

LANARS assigned a project manager, and we primarily worked through Google Docs files.

What did you find most impressive about LANARS?

LANARS' team is experienced and thorough, developing our project in its entirety.

Are there any areas LANARS could improve?

Not at all. LANARS is a solid group. They never pushed us in a wrong direction, and were open to suggestions.

LANARS provides mobile application development support for a health technology firm. They've helped develop and design the prototype of an iOS application that measures a user's stress levels.

LANARS has successfully delivered a working prototype in a timely and budget-friendly manner. The team institutes a smooth workflow through a reliable project manager who makes sure both parties are always in sync. They're also flexible, focused, and collaborative.

The client submitted this review online.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

The scope of the work was to develop a prototype of the iOS application as a proof of technology. The technology in our wristband is quiet complicated and used in hospitals today. We needed a company that can make it work iOS, which LANARS was able to do.

Our Story

Since 2016, LANARS has been one permanent team — not contractors assembled per project. What sets us apart: 60 engineers with years of shared context, AI-augmented workflows on every project, and full ownership of results — we guarantee delivery, not billed hours. We grow our own talent through mentorship and free LANARS Education courses, which keeps expertise deep and turnover low. Clients get a stable, battle-tested unit that plugs into their workflow from day one.

What Sets Us Apart

One Permanent Team Since 2016

LANARS is 60 engineers who have worked together for 10+ years — not contractors assembled per project. Clients get a stable, battle-tested unit with years of shared context that plugs into their workflow from day one, with no recruitment or ramp-up phase.

AI-Augmented Engineering

Every project runs on AI-augmented development — coding, review, and testing accelerated by LLM tooling. We also build production AI for clients: Claude and OpenAI integrations, RAG systems, AI agents, and process automation. Faster delivery, lower cost, same engineering standards.

Guaranteed Delivery, Full Ownership

We guarantee delivery and take full ownership of results — possible because these are our own engineers with established workflows. Contracts include warranty periods and full IP transfer. Scale up when demand peaks, scale down when it settles — no long-term lock-in.

Commonly Asked Questions

Our onboarding is fast because our team is permanent — there's no recruitment or assembly phase. The typical flow: 1. Discovery call (day 1–2). We map your goals, technical context, and constraints. For AI projects, we identify where automation or LLM integration delivers measurable value — not AI for its own sake. 2. Technical scoping (week 1). Our engineers review your codebase, infrastructure, and integrations, then deliver a fixed-price proposal or team composition with a concrete timeline. Estimates are free. 3. Kickoff (week 1–2). We plug into your tools and communication channels — Slack, Jira, GitHub, or whatever you use — and set up CI/CD and reporting from day one. You get direct access to engineers, not layers of account managers. 4. First delivery (week 2–4). We ship a working increment early so you can validate quality and fit before deeper commitment. Most clients go from first call to active development in under two weeks.

We measure success by delivery and retention, not billed hours. Every fixed-price project ships with a delivery guarantee and a 12-month warranty — if it doesn't work as specified, we fix it at our cost. The strongest indicator: our key clients — including SINTEF, FundingPartner, Defigo, and Mia Health — have worked with us for years across multiple projects. In consulting, repeat business is the honest ROI metric. For AI and automation projects, ROI is typically direct and measurable: processes that took hours of manual work run automatically, and AI-augmented development reduces delivery cost compared to traditional agencies. We define success metrics with the client during scoping, so ROI is agreed before development starts — not claimed after.

A mobile app MVP typically takes 1–2 months; a web platform or custom dashboard 1–2 months; AI integrations and automation workflows 2–6 weeks; a full product build with backend, apps, and integrations 2–3 months. Fixed-price projects come with a committed timeline in the contract — and a delivery guarantee behind it. Urgent requests and production issues for existing clients are handled same-day. AI-augmented development consistently shortens delivery by 30–50% compared to traditional agency timelines — LLM-assisted coding, testing, and review are part of every project, not an add-on.

Yes — project takeovers are a regular part of our work. We audit the existing codebase, infrastructure, and documentation, identify risks, and deliver an honest assessment of what can be kept versus what needs rework. Because our engineers cover mobile, web, backend, and embedded, we can take over the full stack, not just one layer. Typical scenarios: a previous agency underdelivered, an in-house team left, or a legacy product needs modernization and AI features added. We stabilize first, then improve — no forced rewrites to inflate scope.

Security is built into how we operate, not added on request. LANARS is implementing ISO 27001, with core processes already in place: documented security objectives, vulnerability monitoring, access control, and data processing agreements covering every contractor. As a Norwegian company, we operate under GDPR by default — NDAs, DPAs, and EU/EEA data residency are standard, not extras. On the engineering side, every project goes through code reviews, dependency scanning, and CI/CD with automated security checks. Contractually, clients are protected by delivery guarantees, warranty periods, and full IP transfer. We've passed security requirements of clients like UNICEF, SINTEF, and fintech companies — organizations that audit their vendors thoroughly.
