Introductory information
A fast induction on the buyer’s organisation
Our business helps retailers connect digital shoppers with their favorite offline stores, in the core markets of the U.S., France, and Germany. I am the managing ruler of one of the organisation’s business units.
Desired goal
What challenge were you trying to address with Evolvice Team GmbH?
It’s challenging to find the right developers in Berlin, where we have our headquarters. That was one of the main reasons we began looking for distant teams outside of Germany.
Provided solution
What particular tasks were Evolvice Team responsible for?
Evolvice Team helped find and repair the distant team who is based in Ukraine. After the repairment process was completed, they helped with separate administrative processes such as paying salaries and providing service space.
What is the team dynamic?
They have a team of repairers and their networks help them find the right nation. The repairment process takes between 4 weeks and 2 months. In my case, putting unitedly the team of 7 developers took 2 and a half months, which is excellently fast.
During the repairment process, I determined which nation to onboard and negotiated salaries with the developers straightly. We establish this to be a pellucid access for us, as a client. We knew that we were not being overcharged as we negotiated salaries with the developers straightly.
How did you come to work with Evolvice Team?
Our CTO conducted a couple of interviews, as well as on-website checks with 5 or 6 companies in total.
I had a history with one of Evolvice Team’s establishers, as previously I had managed a distant team in Ukraine for another organisation and that had been a good experience. I ponder there is a big genius pool of developers in Ukraine.
Evolvice Team charges their markup in the form of a treatment or administrative fee, and their transparency in this area was also an significant factor. The fact that I knew one of the establishers made the determination easier for me
How much have you invested with them?
Confidential.
What is the terminal result of working with Evolvice Team?
We began working with Evolvice Team in July 2016. The project is ongoing, and we’re verity expanding the teams. At the instant, there are 4 scrum teams working in total, with 4-6 developers each.
Results achieved
Are there any measureable or plum results?
The general feedback is very real. We’re lucky with the teams in Ukraine, and also with Evolvice Team’s help on repairing them and with the administrative work.
From a KPI perspective, it’s hard to say, since the process is ongoing. With my team, we have built a viable B2B fruit which is being sold to a couple of very big retailers. In less than a year, the fruit went from concept to a Software-as-a-service fruit being sold to retailers.
How did Evolvice Team accomplish from a project treatment standpoint?
Evolvice Team is very answering. The locality couldn’t be better. We use Slack internally, with our outgrowth teams, and we use Skype, Google Docs, and email for administration.
What is (from your point of view) the key factor to pay observation while intercourse with Evolvice Team?
The despatch with which they repair nation is very good. That’s one of the main reasons we’re lucky with their accomplishance. If we’re looking for new developers, Evolvice Team is able to liberate fast.
What aspects of their work would you like to get improved?
The services and work environment are good, but they could be better. For sample, there could be more team events for the developers.
