Alian Software Inc.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I'm the CEO of Bliss Payments, Inc., a platform designed to help people seamlessly save for and complete online purchases.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What specific goals or objectives did you hire Alian Software Inc. to accomplish for your business?

We hired Alian Software Inc. to serve as our primary software development partner for Bliss Payments, with the goal of taking our product from early-stage vision to a real, functioning platform we could confidently build the business around. Specifically, we brought them on to (1) design and build the core product experience end-to-end, (2) move quickly and efficiently to deliver an MVP without sacrificing quality, (3) create a clean, scalable foundation we can continue to iterate on, and (4) operate like a true extension of our team through strong communication, responsiveness, and thoughtful execution.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Alian Software Inc. owned the majority of the full product development scope for Bliss Payments. Their work covered product implementation across both frontend and backend, as well as the internal tooling needed to operate the platform. Main deliverables included:

• A production-quality MVP of the Bliss Payments platform
• Core user-facing product flows and UI
• Backend services and APIs to support the product experience
• Database design and implementation
• Admin/dashboard functionality for internal operations and monitoring
• QA support, bug fixing, and ongoing improvements through multiple iterations

Overall, they delivered a strong foundation we can continue building on confidently.

Alian Software Inc. built essentially the entire core Bliss Payments product themselves. This included the primary user-facing experience, backend services and APIs, database architecture, and the internal tools required to operate and manage the platform. Our internal team provided product vision, prioritization, and feedback throughout the process, but Alian Software Inc. owned the engineering execution end-to-end. If any external services were involved, Alian Software Inc. handled the integrations and made the overall build feel seamless.

How did you come to work with Alian Software Inc.?

Alian Software Inc. was referred to me. We chose them because their pricing fit our budget, they were referred to me, and their company values aligned with ours.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from June 2025 to January 2026.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The biggest measurable outcome was that Alian Software Inc. delivered a fully working prototype that brought our product vision to life in a tangible, testable way. This allowed us to move from concept to a real product experience we could demo to partners and investors, gather feedback quickly, and validate key user flows. The speed of delivery, overall quality, and how complete the prototype felt were clear indicators of progress and success.

While we’re still early and the prototype phase wasn’t focused on large-scale usage metrics, the impact was very clear. Alian Software Inc. delivered the prototype quickly and in a demo-ready state, which allowed us to immediately start showing it to partners and investors, collect actionable feedback, and iterate faster. The prototype materially accelerated our timeline and improved the quality of conversations we were having externally because we could show a real product instead of describing an idea.

How did Alian Software Inc. perform from a project management standpoint?

Alian Software Inc.’s project management was excellent. They were organized, proactive, and very easy to work with. They set clear timelines and expectations, communicated consistently, and kept the project moving without surprises. Most importantly, they delivered on time and maintained strong execution throughout, even as we continued to iterate and expand the scope after the initial prototype was complete.

What did you find most impressive about them?

What impressed me most about working with Alian Software Inc. was how responsive, reliable, and easy they were to collaborate with throughout the entire build. They were extremely patient with adjustments and changes on our side, especially when I realized I had missed requirements or wanted to tweak parts of the product after seeing things come to life. They moved quickly without sacrificing accuracy, communicated clearly, and consistently delivered high-quality work. Overall, they felt like a true extension of our team and made the process smooth from start to finish.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Honestly, there isn’t anything major I would change. For an early-stage build where requirements naturally evolve, Alian Software Inc. handled everything thoughtfully and professionally, stayed highly responsive, and consistently delivered high-quality work. If anything, our experience has been that they’re already operating at a very high bar.

• Project Delivery
• On Time Completion

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

Overall, their project management skills were adequate. For example when one of their developers fell ill - they pro-actively swapped in resources who were already familiar with the project so that helped the delivery to be on-time. We communicated on adaily basis through messaging and meet twice a week virtually and all of those meetings were joined on and time and felt very productive.

What was your primary form of communication with Alian Software Inc.?

In-Person Meeting, Virtual Meeting, Email or Messaging App

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

I felt they were very communicative and proactive based on the needs of the customer and the project, also wanted to say having visited them at their office in India - their internal culture felt very familial and speaking to several team members (not directly in my project) - they praised how Alian took care of them and their family members.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Alian Software Inc. could have done differently?

I think there's always room for improvement on technical skills, I felt some parts of the project could have been delivered faster had team members been a bit more open about technical direction from the customer. Also some obvious bugs could have been caught by the dev/QA team before handing off to the customer.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the E-commerce Manager of a women's clothing brand. On the side, I manage and help project manage ongoing projects for other companies in the industry.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Alian Software Inc., and what were your goals?

We hired Alian Software at the beginning of the year to help with some ongoing issues that had come up with our website. For instance, fixing our collection grid, creating a new mobile navigation, develop a wholesale page, add homepage sections/changes and other minor issues or developments we needed. Since they did such good work, I decided to use Alian Software for my other freelance clients as well. In the past few months, they have developed a customized page for my jewelry client (that has exceeded my expectations) and create a press page.

SOLUTION

How did you select Alian Software Inc. and what were the deciding factors?

I hired Alian Software through upwork.com. I was really impressed with their portfolio and knowledge of Shopify and custom CSS/HTML.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

Usually when I have a new project at hand, I briefly describe to them what the scope of the job would look like. From there, depending on the project, I personally draft up a mock of what I am envisioning the page to look alike, along with a creative brief. Once they come back with a quote & it's approved, they start the job. Alian Software is very great at time management, communication (even. though I may not be at sometimes) and executing the work to my liking.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

I mainly work with Devang Brahmbhatt, as he solely communicates with me on all jobs. The developers who I believe work on these projects are, Hetal Makwana and Kushboo Lad.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

After helping with glitches and updating our mobile navigation recently, we are seeing a higher transactional conversion rate on mobile than before!

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timelines.

We used upwork to communication projects through. Their timelines were always set at the beginning + achieved.

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

I'm very impressed with all the different projects I've thrown at them! Especially the crazier ones, like a stud customizer page. They are super willing to do whatever project at hand and execute it to the best of their abilities.

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

At first there was some communication errors - but once Devang took over as sole communicater it was smooth sailing.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO and founder of Collabful, Inc. We help students form virtual study groups around similar work. Our service also matches former and current students together for additional guidance.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Alian Software Inc.?

We were looking to rebrand our company from our previous name to Collabful, Inc. to better resonate with the challenges that students face. Alian Software is helping us through that process. 

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement? 

To support our brand revamp, Alian Software functions as our right-hand development team. They’ve just redesigned the entire frontend of our website. Now, we’re moving forward with a long-term development project. They’ll be going through the full tech stack, which includes Vue.js, Laravel, and PHP.

What is the team composition? 

It was initially five frontend designers and developers since we were moving at such a rapid pace at that point. We’re now working with a project manager and a developer but will likely expand once the next development phase starts.

How did you come to work with Alian Software Inc.?

I created an Upwork ad that pulled in hundreds of applicants and then conducted rigorous interviews. I felt the most comfortable moving forward with Alian Software.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve invested around $17,000 so far. Starting next month, that will jump to $21,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

The collaboration started in December 2020 and is still ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Alian Software is exceptional when it comes to communication, understanding, and flexibility. What I really admire about their team is that they’re there for us whenever we need them — be it for development, design, high-security measures, or even stand-up meetings. I haven’t gotten the same level of satisfaction with other off-shore companies as I’ve had with Alian Software.

How did Alian Software Inc. perform from a project management standpoint?

We meet directly with both their project manager and their developer so that there’s no miscommunication. I prefer this model over the more traditional single point of contact, so I’m glad that Alian Software was willing to cater to our needs. That just goes to show you how collaborative they are. On the technical side, we use Jira to coordinate and operate using a scrum/agile development method.

What did you find most impressive about them?

As the founder, I trusted them to pull through with the design for my platform, and they delivered. In fact, their team recommended so many modern ideas that ended up enhancing my platform altogether. I don’t even know if I’d be where I am today without them because they really brought my vision to life.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I can’t think of anything. I hate to be cliché, but I’m very satisfied with my experience.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Alian Software is a professional development center that does high-end development. So, you really have to know what you’re talking about with your idea because they’ll take you extremely seriously.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Alian Software?

We partnered with them to develop a Shopify app for a client. It was out of the scope of what we could offer.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

It was a collaborative effort. The client laid out the roadmap of what they needed, and Alian Software helped us to develop a private and a public version of the custom Shopify app. When or staff gets busy, the team also jumps in to helps us with anything else we’re working.

What is the team composition?

I have one main point of contact, and I also work with three developers.

How did you come to work with Alian Software?

We did a Google search and did a dive into the work that they’d done for other clients. I then reached out to them for a quote.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent between $20,000–$30,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We’ve been working with them for about a year now. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

They did exceptionally well. Alian Software took our client’s vision and what we wanted and made it into something that was useful and works well. The app looks incredible and professionally done.

How did Alian Software perform from a project management standpoint?

Their project management style is incredible. Alian Software is one of the easiest businesses we’ve worked with.  They map out the timelines if the deadline that the client suggests is realistic. If not, they advise us on choosing a more realistic deadline.

They’ve been clear with their communication, and they meet their deadlines every time. If an issue pops up, the team gives us an extended window of how long it will take them to fix it and is quick to address it. The team definitely meets the mark.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Alian Software is a great team to work with. They really took this project off the ground and delivered quickly. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, there are no areas of improvement. There are no shortcomings. Alian Software is a blessing to deal with compared to the other service providers we’ve dealt with over the years. It’s been nothing but positive.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Tell Alian Software exactly what you want and they’ll be able to deliver the product that you need.
