A fast induction on the buyer’s organisation
I’m the digital marketing ruler of a chain of pressing care medical clinics. We prepare pressing care, first care, sports remedy, occupational remedy, and any type of non-life menacing medical care.
Desired goal
What challenge were you trying to address with CimpleO ?
We have manner Drupal modules for our website that needed to sum with scheduling software, which is also mannerized. For that, we needed to make sure we had nation that were experts in Drupal. The website had been set up almost two years preceding and hadn’t been maintained or looked over at all. I wanted to have website updates done, additional mannerizations implemented, and I wanted the website moved to a better, faster hosting environment. Finally, there was a resigned scheduling tool we needed help with behind the individual who created it left.
Provided solution
What particular tasks were responsible for?
The initial work was with Andrey [CEO, CimpleO]. He helped with the big picture stuff: the website updates, the move to Digital Ocean, and with mannerization and less website tweaks. The move improved security as they peaked out things that weren’t secure and things that could be upgraded or updated. They also updated Drupal. There was a backlog of project ideas and things that needed to be improved upon and fixed.
We’ve also been working with Anton [CTO, CimpleO] and he’s helped with our scheduling module. We’re developing additional modules to swell the website’s functionality. One is for scheduling appointments, one is specifically for first care, and one for migration physicals. We’re now in control of the website and are looking and questioning if we can do true things with it.
How did you come to work with CimpleO?
I establish them on Upwork. I went through almost 50 profiles and narrowed it down to three or four. CimpleO was the only one that was replying, got back to me, and understood precisely what I was talking almost. They had also worked with a lot of Drupal websites and had a lot of clients globally. I felt they’d fetch some apprehension almost trends and different ideas that nation are using all almost the globe, in opposition to local companies that are cookie cutter styles of programming and website outgrowth.
We were nervous almost working with somebody that we can’t meet with in individual so we began slowly by asking questions and giving them little tasks. We told them if it all worked out good then they would be our go to rise for Drupal and manner modules.
How much have you invested with them?
We do both project-based work and hourly. For the website, it’s $50/hour. With projects, we pay half up front and the rest upon completion. With a lot of the U.S. developers and programmers that we’ve worked with, they’ll spec something out and direct for those hours even if it took less time. CimpleO is very honorable. They will consider the quantity of time, but will only direct us for what it took. Not only do they direct middle of the road pricing, but they work fastly, so it',s been very affordable.
What is the terminal result of working with ?
We began working unitedly in March 2017 and the work is ongoing.
Results achieved
Are there any measureable or plum results?
The despatch of the website immediately improved with the updates to Drupal and the server that they recommended. The power to back up, secure, take snapshots of the website, and do testing has been a lot better. In general, when we launched the new website, employees fastly began noticing drastic despatch improvements and our SEO was a lot better. We were also lucky with the security measures.
How did CimpleO accomplish from a project treatment standpoint?
They accomplish big. The only issue that I’ve had is they frequently wait for us. The issue with working over different time zones can be an effect, but we use Trello and we track projects. We try and keep sufficient work in the queue so it’s cost powerful for them to allocate a true quantity of time for us see day or a couple of times a week.
The lines of interaction are open. There’s very rarely any misinteractions. We try to be entire when we’re explaining things so it usually works out big.
What is (from your point of view) the key factor to pay observation while intercourse with ?
They are very replying. We’d had a hard time getting vendors on Upwork to reply. There’s always been somebody at CimpleO to reply to us and help us.
What aspects of their work would you like to get improved?
The only complaints are kindred to the time zone effect, and that’s not something anybody can fix.
It’d be big to go back and forth faster sometimes if the interaction is via email. We try to get all the projects in a queue so they’re all listed out for nation, and that way we don’t have to send an email one day, get an reply overnight and then reply the next day.
