BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the founder of a company that basically helps other companies purchase software pieces.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Airdev?

I used Airdev to help build out the MVP version of our tool.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Airdev helped me design and develop the MVP version of our tool. First, I provided them with some documentation, and they scoped and refined the project, a process that lasted for about a month. Then, they went into the development phase. They broke the development process into three stages to make it more manageable.

For this project, Airdev used Bubble, the main platform they use for development. Additionally, they used Canvas, a tool they built on Bubble. After building the MVP, they also were in charge of its integration so that it was functional. With it, we could see what users saw, as well as all the functionality behind the administrative side for user management.

Airdev also offered a 30-day cost-free support period to test the tool and change anything if needed. Additionally, they offer ongoing support if we want future changes outside the original scope.

What is the team composition?

We worked with Mike (Project Manager), Pablo (Software Developer), a designer, and a QA person.

How did you come to work with Airdev?

I searched for Bubble developers in the space and looked at their reviews. I also made some calls and got some quotes. I felt comfortable working with Airdev because they were great. Mike was very helpful during the scoping process, making me decide to go with them.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent around $20,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in November 2021, and they finished the first development in January 2022. However, we plan to continue working with them.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

Airdev delivered what they promised, so it was a great engagement. Working with them, we didn’t come across any surprises, and when bugs appeared, they were very accommodating in fixing them promptly. Overall, I was really impressed with the service they provided.

How did Airdev perform from a project management standpoint?

Airdev performed very well. They had a very good process in place and a great portal where we worked off of. They created this portal internally, and we used it to communicate. Through it, we could share screenshots, create tasks, and more. In addition to that, we had a call every two weeks for status updates.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Airdev’s structure was their strong suit. They were very organized during the process; we could see that this wasn’t their first project. I also really liked working through their portal. Overall, it was a very well-managed process.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No. For the most part, it was a very smooth process. If I could go back and make something different, I would have tried to refine the scope a little more. Things outside the agreed scope cost extra, but that’s not their fault.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Focus on the scope and ensure it is as clear and refined as possible.
