BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CTO, program manager, and product owner of a startup company focusing on domestic waste usage and compaction.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Orangesoft?

I needed custom software development services to create a cloud-based version of our product. Ours was predominately a mechanical and electronic product, so it required internet access. Thus, the development work would include a database and an image processing system. For this project, we hired Orangesoft to conduct the discovery phase.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Orangesoft conducted a discovery process to go through and analyze our business requirements for the product we wanted to create. As a result, they highlighted the architecture and logic behind the product, as well as the technologies they would use to develop it. However, we haven’t engaged with them further yet.

What is the team composition?

Initially, I was in contact with the business development manager to discuss the project and sign the contract. Then, I was in touch with two data architects from Orangesoft.

I found Orangesoft a long time ago while I was working for another company. Originally, I found them via Clutch and reached out to them.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent €5,000 (approximately $5,300 USD).

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in mid-November 2022, and the project ended by the end of December 2022.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The discovery process was very successful. Ultimately, we received a helpful assessment and analysis of the project, as well as a flow diagram for how Orangesoft thought the product should technically work.

How did Orangesoft perform from a project management standpoint?

Orangesoft defined the process well from the beginning, telling me how long the discovery phase would take. They said that it would take six weeks and require two meetings per week, and that was how the project went.

Orangesoft’s communication was very good and prompt. They were very attentive, and we had information flowing daily, both between meetings and at the meetings, which was very good. We typically communicated over video calls either via Microsoft (MS)Teams or Zoom.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Orangesoft’s frontend development skills were great. Moreover, they were very attentive and amenable, and their business analyst was exceptionally good, especially given that we worked from different countries.

In addition to that, Orangesoft was very understanding of the subject, demonstrating an excellent ability to get up to speed quickly and be precise about what we were doing. Thanks to this, they were able to ask insightful questions — I was very impressed.

Are there any areas they could improve?

There was a slight language barrier, so I had to be careful when discussing specific parts regarding engineering details and terms. However, I already gave them this feedback, and it wasn’t their fault.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Just dive in, get started, and don’t try to steer them in any way. The sooner you engage with Orangesoft, the better.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m a Product Marketing Manager at a company providing IT services, consulting and software solutions.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Orangesoft?

We were developing a mobile app for smart home products for one of our clients. We had an in-house team working on this project, but we needed to scale it rapidly to keep up with the deadlines. Finding resources with solid experience in IoT development was crucial to us.

SOLUTION

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

We contacted several development agencies, but Orangesoft's rates, talent pool and experience in IoT development made them a clear winner. We needed a flexible resource and, after a technical interview, it was obvious that their developers fit our team perfectly.

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

We needed to develop a native iOS and Android app that allows users to control home appliances through their mobile devices. Orangesoft provided the required resources and we managed them through the whole development process as they became an integral part of our team.

Describe the recruitment process in detail.

After discussing the project details with the account manager and interviewing the candidates they found for us, we started with two middle developers (Android and iOS) and a QA engineer. When we were approaching the deadline, we extended the team with two more senior developers.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

From our team’s perspective, they are professionals that deliver and care about what they’re doing. The end client had very positive feedback on the delivered app.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The Orangesoft team worked very closely with ours on the ground, following an agile methodology. We had a regular meeting cadence and we were able to roll out our requirements to them on a regular basis and they delivered. We used conference calls and Slack to communicate and Jira to track tasks.

The quality of Orangesoft’s work is really impressive. The team consisted of strong individual contributors, there were no “average” guys on their team.

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

Can’t think of one at the moment.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO of a SaaS company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Orangesoft?

We needed to develop a mobile application for iOS and Android and didn't want to hire internal developers, as that is a lengthy process and we're on a tight schedule.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

They’re building the app in Swift

What is the team composition?

I work with around 10 people, including the developers, a product manager, a lead developer, a designer, and a UI/UX resource.

How did you come to work with Orangesoft?

We found them through a Google search.

How much have you invested with them?

The total cost is around $25,000–$50,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We’ve been working together since September 2020, and the app is sent to launch in the next month or so.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The application looks great so far. Orangesoft’s team is doing a pretty good job; there haven't been any issues with the development. We've been testing the app along the way and everything looks great. I can't speak to the code itself because we haven't looked over the code base yet, but the application itself looks great.

How did Orangesoft perform from a project management standpoint?

They've been pretty well on track. The development has taken a little longer than expected but that's not because of anything on their end. We’ve had some issues with our backend, so the slight delay is sort of to be expected. They've been good about meeting our standards.

We use Jira internally, but I don't know what they're using. Slack and Google Docs suffice for our work together.

What did you find most impressive about them?

We've only developed desktop-based software before, so I don’t know much about other mobile app companies, but Orangesoft’s application seems like it’s well-written. There aren’t any major issues. However they're coding the applications seems to be working pretty well.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, there isn’t anything that I can think of off the top of my head.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Make sure you’ve planned out the backend of the application. We were used to desktop-based software and weren’t as ready as we could have been for the specifics of the mobile app environment. Defintely talk it through with Orangesoft to make sure everything is in line for your development. This will help avoid issues and delays.

We decided that it was a good time for a digital transformation. We didn't want to create just another e-commerce app, but showcase our products and create a unique experience to the customers. The idea was to allow our customers to check out shoe collections and shop their styles.

As a first step, we worked on the app design. We wanted to look it clean and stylish. It was important to transmit the brand's values and spirit. That's exactly what we got in the end. With the WANNA.by, we created 3D models SDK that was implemented by Orangesoft team during the development stage.
