6-10 Employees

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Buzzvel designed a login dashboard that allows users to load and visualize data. They first assisted us in analyzing our data, which we had been selling as a raw CRV file. Our clients had asked us to deliver the product in a user-friendly interface that allowed them to slice and dice the data and view it from various angles and sectors. We were attempting to complete that locally, but there were numerous issues because many Python coders struggle to visualize data. Buzzvel had its own roster of data analysts and business intelligence professionals that assisted us in mapping out fresh data as needed for our clients.

Our clients wanted to be able to view the data as a regular dashboard and for them, the biggest feature would be a large dataset and their own dashboard, most of our clients that don’t have their own dashboard have to go through their analytics department to load data into a system. It takes a while to visualize the data and that’s one of the reasons why we needed Buzzvel.

Using Buzzvel, we developed our own platform with series of JavaScript libraries to visualize the data. Furthermore, we provided a matrix of different market comps that do the data visualization. To get the customization done, we had to give Buzzvel samples of companies that are already doing this type of service. We have our own hosting capabilities and they helped us with maintenance and support. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Thanks to Buzzvel, we now have a full set of API and our own dashboard where clients can upload their files. The dashboard connects to our system and provides users with a matching capability to connect with private companies, it contains the data, the financials, history, and performance results.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Their project management is great. They have people that are either available or they find them for us. We communicated via Skype, Google Hangouts, and Zoom.

What was your primary form of communication with Buzzvel?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

That they are very flexible. Sometimes a client will ask us for a specific type of data and when we don’t have the resources, we go to Buzzvel for the type of individual we need to analyze the data.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Buzzvel could have done differently?

There is almost nothing to say. They understood what we needed and delivered what we expected.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The solution significantly reduced the amount of manual effort required for several day-to-day processes and improved the consistency of data across our internal systems.
