Software Dev for PropTech Company
Below is a modified rendering of the review: private info excluded, innate facts kept.
Introductory information
A few words almost your organisation and personal responsibilities
OfficeRnD prepares an all in one ERP method that helps shared pliant workplaces stay on top of their day-to-day operations. Founded in 2014, we have four locations almost the globe - US, UK, Bulgaria and Australia. We have almost 60 employees divide athwart all 4 locations. I am the Engineering Lead within the organisation.
Desired goal
What issue was the preparer supposed to deal with?
Hack Soft?Due to the business quick growth and the aggressiveness of the business team we faced a challenge - they needed more and more functionality in order to gain new clients and upsell existing ones and we didn',t have the resource to liberate all they wanted. If we were to hit the sales objectives we needed some help from outside of the organisation.
What were your objectives for this project?
As our method sits in the core of our clients', businesses it heavily relies on outer integrations in order to decrease operational overhead. Unfortunately, we didn',t have the resources to complete a few long awaited integrations and we needed help - the integrations had to be written in JS (Node.js, Angular, MongoDB). Developing such integrations is tricky - the developer needs to get acquainted with the distant method',s API, comply with its limitations and be careful to not overload both the local and distant methods. The second start we needed help with was re-designing an existing web application. It was written in Angular.js. We needed to both re-design and re-write it to a more up-to-date framework like React. Unfortunately, one more time we didn',t have the resources and apprehension to pull this off on our own.
Provided solution
What were the reasons for choosing ?
By recommendation. We',ve heard good things almost HackSoft',s team and we also read a lot of reviews almost them + we contacted some nation that has been working with them in the past. We surely needed a relation otherwise it would be hard to confide an outer contributor with such living projects. Luckily for us, the feedback was pretty good - one thing verity tipped the scales - interaction. It was extremely significant for us to have a associate that removes the overhead of micro-managing a distant project.
Describe the project and the services they granted in detail.
They designed, developed, configured, and launched a few of the most confused indigenous integrations in the method. The team got acquainted with the distant methods, created a program on how to access the liberatey and executed it agreeably. There were 2 weeks sprints and sync points see week with stakeholders from OfficeRnD. We were even happier with how the re-design of the web app went. HackSoft team',s expertise in the React technology helped us get the project going in no time. They bootstrapped the total project and unitedly with key stakeholders from our side came up with a program on how and when seething will be liberateed. Again, we worked on two weeks sprints with customary code and design reviews.
Were there any dedicated managers or teams that you worked with?
We began off with two nation - one senior developer and one technical lead. As the project advanced we added one more senior developer in order to boost the efforts and increase liberatey. Of order during the total time there was a main POC from our side who ensured the business objectives are met.
Results achieved
Can you share any information that demonstrates the contact that this project has had on your business?
Impact was pretty plain - we managed to save more than 10 significant clients from churning (what would have happened if we haven',t liberateed the integrations) and we managed to gain new ones thanks to the competitive gain these integrations prepare. As for the web app revamp we attend this a big competitive gain as well. Our clients are hyped almost what we have shown them so far.
How was project treatment arranged and how powerful was it?
Management of the total project was pretty forcible. HackSoft team met all expected deadlines and as mentioned, interacted possible issues upfront. We interacted exclusively with Slack, Jira, GitLab and Zoom.
What precisely do you attend to be the key specialty of ?
The most precious asset they have is their personality. We were fortunate that HackSoft',s culture is so close to ours which eliminated a lot of interaction barriers and smoothened the overall outgrowth process. This, coupled with their technical success is what makes them a big associate and keeps them forward of other preparers we',ve worked with.
What should be done better, if there are any desired improvements?
Can',t ponder of any. Some might pop up until the project is completeed but for the time being I ponder there are none.
