BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the co-founder of MISEbox. We’re a training and operations platform that restaurants across the country use to drive their revenue. We also help improve the relationships of our stakeholders with their employees and guests.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Alluxi?

We needed technical services to continue the development of our SaaS product. 

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We were without technical resources, and Alluxi stepped in as our main development team. In the beginning, we provided insight into how our product works through live demos and extensive documentation. During the initial onboarding, we tried to give them a "softball project' but quickly realized we needed to address some critical bugs and infrastructure issues. 

After that, we moved through triage and bug fixing and have successfully built new features, functions, and improved some elements of the existing UI and processes. Now I’ve got a small team that I’m able to scale as I grow. We also anticipate that they’ll heavily deal with design, development, and architecture work.

What is the team composition?

We work with a senior architect and junior developers when needed.

How did you come to work with Alluxi?

I engaged with Alluxi through a service called Symbiosis, a third-party recruitment matchmaking service that reaches out to companies who need development services. Then, that company is in charge of finding development shops nearshore to match the technical needs of their customers.

When I interviewed Alluxi, they were great, and we decided to partner with them.

How much have you invested with them?

Our engagement is ongoing and the cost of services scales appropriately for the work we need.

What is the status of this engagement?

Our partnership began in February 2021, and we continue to collaborate.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The first major project we needed help with was a critical bug that was affecting the core function of our platform. That turned into a tremendous project resulting in our migrating from Heroku to AWS and retooling much of our tech stack. We ended up saving some money doing that and resolved the issue.

Since then, we've built new features that our clients love and continue to improve every day.

How did Alluxi perform from a project management standpoint?

I love working with them, and I’m really excited about where we’re going. Startup businesses like us need a lot of handholding because we don’t have an organizational infrastructure yet. That’s why having a team like Alluxi that's fully ready to act as if they’re internal employees has been impressive. 

MISEbox is a complex software, and they were patient and thoughtful as we worked through their onboarding experience. They provide helpful feedback and suggestions as to how we should manage certain tasks. This clear direction and communication style are a welcome change from my work experience with past developers. Furthermore, they always give valuable insights on what to improve in order to increase work efficiency.

What did you find most impressive about them?

It’s very clear that their founder is what sets them apart. Not only is he great at what he does, but Gustavo is also understanding and empathetic as compared to other developers I’ve worked with. He’s also organized, proactive, thoughtful, and patient — and that has helped because we’ve had so many technical questions. Overall, Gustavo believes in what they’re doing and their particular focus on startups has been very helpful. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

They have literally nothing to improve because they haven't made any missteps yet. I’m shockingly impressed with their work, so I don’t know how they can be better. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

If Alluxi is helping your business, you're in good hands. They can help you figure out what’s the best solutions for you, and they’re also a good choice because they have developers that can build your products. 

The team also understands that there’s a user story that needs to be met, and they’re not just interested in the technical specifications, but the real-world results of their work.

We met weekly through Zoom, we used version control with Github, we organized all our documentation on Google Drive

Its technical capacity to execute our ideas, and the great availability to address and solve the problems that arise in such a project. Together, we accomplished a lot and make a great team, so to continue working with Alluxi. THey're an extension of our Software Development team

It seems to me that one point to improve may be administrative control, which did not have a big impact on the success of the project, however, if it generated small additional costs.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

They custom-developed a CRM using Python and Django. The business rules, commission rules, and customer experience are customized.

The client is very happy with the results, as are we. Our client wasn’t using a CRM in 2015, and then they had a 100% adoption rate across the whole company (150 end-users have adopted it). 

We use a tool that gives us very specific code quality reviews, and they have very good code quality. They’ve have covered our code quality reviews using the best practices for both back-and frontend development up to 90%. They are in the top tier of code quality providers we’ve worked with. 

How did Alluxi perform from a project management standpoint?

Their project management has been very good over the last two years. (At first, it was a little rocky because we were trying to understand our client’s end-users.)

Over the years, we’ve developed a very clean, optimized methodology. Their requirement gathering and development processes are very agile. We have an assigned project manager on their side that’s in contact with our project manager. 

We’ve developed a very trusted, profound business relationship over the course of a few months. They are always very supportive and responsive. They’re very prompt to reply to any questions regarding new or current features.

They’ve been able to understand all of our business goals, features, and rules. They’ve also been very careful about understanding the needs of a CRM that is evolving constantly.

They maintain a very good balance between an affordable price and quality. This helps us add value to our processes, our expertise, and account management. 

Also, they’re committed to the project, and they don’t give up. They try to find a solution and work hard.  If something seems impossible, they use engineering to make it possible. They don’t run away from challenges—they tackle them. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

They could improve their onboarding for new engineers. They are constantly acquiring new talent, but they could do better about introducing us to the developers.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

They’re problem solvers. Define the project with a general scope and then work together to process the way they’re going to solve the problem. Trust them because they have the expertise and an engineering mindset. After you’ve defined the solution with them, work out the best way to find the costs, the schedule, and the scope of the project.

How did Alluxi perform from a project management standpoint?

Alluxi’s project management was solid. The team stayed on schedule, adapted quickly to our feedback, and maintained clear communication throughout. Any issues that came up were handled quickly and transparently. Our primary form of communication with Alluxi was through weekly video calls and a shared Slack channel for daily updates and quick questions. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

What stood out most was how quickly Alluxi understood our internal culture and translated that into a solution that actually worked for our people. The team didn’t just build an app; they built something our team wanted to use. 

Are there any areas they could improve?
