A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the marketing manager of Meemaken, a workplace safety solutions company.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Academy Smart?
We needed someone to develop a new mobile app because the one we had wasn’t sufficient for what we had in mind. The technology didn’t meet the requirements anymore.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
I had a very basic wireframe based on what the app looked like before. Based on the possibilities they told us, we made up a mockup ourselves. They developed a safety awareness app from scratch for both iOS and Android. They built a backend where safety, health, and environment officers can send safety alerts and tips for safe behavior.
They can also fill an in-app library with safety procedures and work instructions so they can have it online and offline. On the other end, workers in the field can ask questions and send reports. This includes the positions and risky situations they encounter. The app allows for registration of meetings that are required by the law in the Netherlands.
What is the team composition?
There are two people I met face-to-face. I met four people in Zoom meetings or GoToMeetings.
How did you come to work with Academy Smart?
My managing director found them after an extensive search online.
How much have you invested with them?
We spent 10,000-15,000 euros ($11,366–$17,000 USD).
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working together in March 2019 and the work is ongoing.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
They met all our set requirements. Clearly, they delivered everything as planned and on time. One customer wrote a testimonial stating that the new library functionality allows their field technician to easily access technical documents on their mobile phones and tablets. They said it’s simple, easy to use, and satisfactory.
How did Academy Smart perform from a project management standpoint?
Project management is really great and I have no complaints. We worked in English. They met all our requirements. There’s a tool that allows us to make tickets and assign them to the appropriate person. When the issue is resolved, it gets reviewed one more time. We use Zoom and GoToMeeting.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They’re very efficient and very reasonably priced.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, there’s nothing I’d have them improve.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
You’ll be in good hands.

Academy Smart was hired by a mobile app developer to convert existing iOS- and Android-compatible applications onto one, unified React Native platform.
Though the app hasn't been released yet, Academy Smart has been exceeding expectations in the development of the solution so far. The team is communicative, professional, and skilled.
The client submitted this review online.
BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the owner of the company.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Academy Smart?
We hire Academy Smart for our own overload.
What were your goals for this project?
Goals were to convert an existing app in Android / iOS to a single ReactNative application. To improve time-to-market aspect of our client.
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor?
We selected them because of the firm relationship build and professional image we get.
One other important aspect for us was, if we were to have a long term dedicated developer he/she would need to be able to work at an office of the company, have a healthy environment and colleagues, with a perspective of growth.
Describe the project in detail.
After we chosen to work with Academy Smart we wanted a project which could proof our ability to collaborate, which it does after having a release planned after 3 months of work.
What was the team composition?
We hired one developer and the project manager was included. We ourselves represent Academy Smart when communicating to the end-client and the other way around.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The app is not released yet, but the fact that our team was able to hook in the app adding new features within an hour, demonstrates that Academy Smarts' developer was able to work against our standards.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
It was easy communicating, because they provided a private slack channel as wel as a jira board.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
Communication was above expectation. The team demonstrated proactivity and the will to improve code quality.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Every company can improve, currently it's too early for us to see what improvements can be made from their side. Everything is going as planned.

Academy Smart designed, developed, and configured a security awareness training solution.
Customers have already offered positive feedback about the product. Academy Smart has an exceptional task management style complimented by consistent communication and accessibility.
The client submitted this review online.
BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
For organizations that want to reduce privacy & cyber risks with a human factor, we offer privacy and security awareness training, which can be adjusted to the wishes of the customer, because all employees are different.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Academy Smart?
We could not distribute our training to our customers in a way that left them amazed. Because there was no standard solution, we wanted to have it built.
What were your goals for this project?
We've listed all our wishes for the functionalities and the timeline that we were looking for. This project will be the key service we offer to our customers, so we were more looking voor quality then quantity.
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor?
We were looking at a few vendors when Academy Smart contacted us in a very friendly way. And we just had a connection. Unlike the 4 other vendors they challenged us and thought with us to have the best possible features in the project.
Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.
We gave our description and goals to Academy Smart. They fine tuned those into smaller working products. Then everything was developed, configured and designed.
What was the team composition?
During the whole project we had the same projectmanager. She really helpt with the whole thinking process and getting all the feature in line. And off course demo the products. There were some developers and designers working on our project. One developer was always present during our demo meetings. I don't know how many were on the team. Sometimes it felt like a whole army was working for us, and that felt great.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?
During development we added more features. We thought they were too important not to have, because you can only make a good impresion once. Sinds we have shown this to some of our customers, they are actually amazed.
How was project management arranged and how effective was it?
As described earlier, the supplier's project manager is the best we have ever worked with. She has delivered more than could be asked of her and exceeded expectations on multiple occasions. Communication was done via google hangouts, email and Slack We never had issues caused by language barriers or time difference.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
What we find most impressive is that they always think with you to create the best possible product.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Of course there are points of improvement. However, these are not so much with the supplier, but with us. In the next project that we are going to do with Academy Smart, we will clarify the definition of done by product / feature even more clearly. Now, for example, we only have the documentation at the end of the project. We will also ask for the additions to nice to have features at the end of the project. This naturally shifted the completion date. Again these are not improvements for Academy Smart but for ourselves.

I received a recommendation from a consultant that I respect. The consultant had represented the team in Israel prior to our engagement.
Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.
The team implemented various modules in our flagship product. Before beginning software development, they tested automation for the cost management software. Then, they participated in the product design, taking over frontend development for the system UI.

What was the team composition?

They deliver high-quality results, as their management ensures all engineers add value. The team maintains a service-oriented working style.
Are there any areas for improvement?
In some cases during the beginning of our engagement, we experienced miscommunication about business requirements. However, internal resources were also to blame. As the partnership has developed, our communication has become much more efficient.
