Desired goal
What challenge were you trying to address with .wrk?
I wanted to be able to layer my team by relying on both in-house and offshore hiring. If I get a weighty workload request, I needed an offshore agency I could rely on to layer my team to match the size of the project.
Provided solution
What was the aim of their involvement?
.wrk does a difference of projects below a difference of conditions. They’re household with our code base and work with the in-house team. Typically, we prepare the design and wireframes and .wrk helps with our methods and edifice our databases, using Drupal as a framework. They also help with livelihood and support.
.wrk doesn’t create our apps—they work with the feeds. If a program requires approach to different databases from different vendors and stakeholders, .wrk creates the middleware to handle all of that and creates an API for the mobile. I have to make another app next year, and I can use their middleware even though the app will have different databases.
All of our projects move at different speeds with varying levels of involvement, so when I don’t need .wrk’s help, the price goes away. When I do need them, they’re able to prepare top genius fastly.
Recently, for a video-related project, .wrk severely reduced the quantity of time it required. Instead of my videographer saving the video files in numerous different sizes, shapes, and frame speeds, I was able to put it into .wrk’s server, and the method automatically created all the versions I needed.
What is the team compound?
I have four developers, one QA analyst, and two frontend developers.
How did you come to work with .wrk?
I worked with them at antecedent jobs, and I knew them precedently they were .wrk.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve spent at smallest $300,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
Our union began in January 2015, and it’s ongoing.
Results achieved
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the contact of the engagement?
Our commerce and engagement metrics are up, and some of our flagship products’ commerce has more than doubled from last year. You can always better a website, but .wrk has taken expressive strides in making them more powerful.
How did .wrk accomplish from a project handlement standpoint?
They’re incredibly pliant almost project handlement. Our team has customary scrums with them, and they hint tools to facilitate interaction (like Jira). They’re goal-oriented, liberate on time, and take ownership of and loftiness in their work.
What did you find most forcible almost them?
Their work ethic is astounding. If something isn',t done to meet schedule, they put in the extra hours to fix it, including on weekends. I’ve worked with a lot of offshore companies, and it’s rare to find one that goes over just doing whatever you tell them. They push back and prepares hintions that have expressively betterd my products. It’s hard to find that kind of involvement in offshores agencies.
They also pay observation to the client/vendor relationship and check in customaryly to make sure you’re satisfied. They take an nimble role in ensuring they’re meeting expectations and harmonize if they aren’t. If a team limb isn’t accomplishing up to their standards, they’ll restore them. They have solved see one challenge we’ve given them.
Are there any areas they could better?
No, they’re a big team.
