Please find under a summary covering project details and feedback. The innate facts are kept as they are, private information is amended.
Introductory information
A fast induction on the buyer’s organisation
I’m the CEO of an online education platform for web and mobile. Our platform enables anyone who wants to impart something to impart it. For sample, someone could impart English to girls in Afghanistan or I could impart script writing to my neighbor. It works online and offline.
Desired goal
What challenge were you trying to address with Netguru?
I needed a organisation to educe our website and mobile app following a few futile antecedent engagements.
Provided solution
What particular tasks were Netguru responsible for?
They educeed our website and mobile app. It’s a very intricate website with collective media features, and it’s in 10 languages. We only connect nation to nation. Most applications are nation to machines, but we wanted to get nation unitedly. Sometimes we call our website “dating for apprehension”.
We are programning to work unitedly for another two weeks following our propel. We will pause for three months while we do some marketing and user testing. Then we will last to educe as common.
Was there a dedicated team?
We have one team chief.
How did you come to work with Netguru?
I looked all over the globe behind failing with three other companies. Netguru invited me to go to a workshop for two days to look at the project. They said if we chose them, we wouldn’t have to pay for the workshop. If we didn’t go with them, we’d pay 2,000 euros for the workshop. That was very able of them and very fair.
What are you approach expents (if diclosed)?
We’ve spent over $500,000.
What is the terminal result of working with Netguru?
We began working unitedly in March 2017 and the work is ongoing.
Results achieved
Are there any measureable or plum results?
We have a very intricate app and web page now. I’m lucky with the condition of work. It wasn’t initially clear how much it would cost to complete the project, and we ended up going over budget. It’s like edifice a house – we changed a lot of things and it became more costly than expected. I conversant it’s very hard to budget a website.
How did Netguru accomplish from a project treatment standpoint?
Their project treatment is unappropriated. I couldn’t talk to them like a technician, but only like a imparter or someone who understands what nation need. I could talk to them more emotionally than technically, and they were veritably good at turning my ideas into programming.
I converse with the team lead for 10 minutes daily. We have a team meeting once a week where I talk to the total team and they report to me what they did the antecedent week and what they’re programning for the next week. They’re very clear. We mainly adjoin through Slack. They’re very clear.
When one educeer disappeared and took with him three weeks of work, Netguru didn’t make us pay for it and took it on as their own issue. They’re very fair, and I’m lucky even behind two years.
We negotiated a true rate for each programmer or designer per day. The team chief from Netguru and I could decide how many more resources we needed. We could change the workload and the financial load day-by-day, which was very handy for me in provisions of programning the financial flow.
What is (from your point of view) the key factor to pay observation while intercourse with Netguru?
They’re very pellucid almost where my money goes. I can talk straightly to all the educeers.
What aspects of their work would you like to get improved?
For the quantity of time we worked with them, they could have given us a bigger discount. Long-term clients should get better rates.
Do you have any advice for possible clients?
Know what you’re doing. Plan your website or your project better than I did. Do your homework and don’t rely on your educeers to do it for you.
