How did you come to work with Binerals?

We found Binerals on LinkedIn. We chose them because their pricing fit our budget, they were a great culture fit, and they offered good value for the cost.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and position.

I am the Managing Director of YOOBELONG GmbH

Describe what your company does in a single sentence.

YOOBELONG builds local communities for active adults (60+). Via a booking portal for service and activity offerings of local providers, we enable our members to meet neighbors with shared interests and to access a wide range of services which simplify their daily lives. 

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What specific goals or objectives did you hire Binerals to accomplish?

• Assess the behavior and needs of our senior target group in the digital space
• Build an MVP for our service booking portal
• Define our further product and tech roadmap

SOLUTION

How did you find Binerals?

We were approached on LinkedIn.

Why did you select Binerals over others?

• Pricing fit our budget
• Expertise with social networking sites, quality of the sales and business analysis teams

How many teammates from Binerals were assigned to this project?

6-10 Employees

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

Binerals developed an MVP for our services & activity booking portal targeting active adults 60+ in Germany, which included the following steps:

- Analysis of competitive environment and accessibility requirements in the digital space for the senior target group
- Definition of product and technical specifications to derive the scope of the MVP
- Development of the MVP based on jointly defined specifications (full tech stack incl. backend, frontend, server)
- Testing and further optimization of the MVP
- Further amendments of the MVP following adjusted product and tech specifications

Since we had no in-house Tech and Digital Marketing teams, we heavily relied on the business analysis, software development and digital marketing skills of Binerals and implemented their recommendations regarding best practices for booking portals and social networks, adjustments for our specific target group, anticipation of future product and tech roadmap. 

Ultimately Binerals has provided us with a scalable, secure and high-performance solution that caters to the evolving needs of our senior users and can be used both in a pure digital platform context and in serviced apartment buildings for active adults.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We benefit from a finalized and well-working MVP, which has been used successfully to build our first sales track record in terms of acquisition of service partners and end-users and which performs as a proof-of-concept in our dialogues with financial and real estate investors.
We will continue to rely on Binerals for further developments and as a key sparring partner regarding any subjects related to digital strategy, software development and digital marketing.

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

There were certain delays in delivering the MVP, but these were partially caused by the fact that we had adjusted our own requirements along the way. In cases of dissatisfaction or conflict regarding any  deliverables, Binerals has always been very reactive, trying to accomodate for our needs while limiting the development budget. We also had direct access to senior management which helped to overcome critical situations. Overall, we're very satisfied with this collaboration and intend to continue it in the medium to long run. 

What was your primary form of communication with Binerals?

Virtual Meeting

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

All customer-facing team members are very much dedicated to meeting your specific needs and supporting overall customer success. Binerals as an overall company was able to deliver high-quality outcome within limited time and budget. This is of great value, especially for startups in the early stages of development. In this scenario, outsourced development can be considered as a long-term and scalable solution, even without in-house tech teams on the customer side. We initially thought we would have to hire an in-house team after the MVP, but have now decided to stick to this partnership for further developments, since it works very well and has great benefits compared to the in-house solution. 

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

We had a conflict regarding process management, documentation and approval processes in the early phase of the collaboration which could maybe have been escalated more quickly or efficiently. But looking backward, the critical issues have been fixed and the quality of the overall relationship was maintained or even improved, so we have no ground for criticism.

When we wanted to build a dating app, we had a vision and some incomplete wireframes. Binerals helped us to transform this into a beautiful, complete, consistent and ready-to-implement design. Binerals also helped us to expand the scope of the design with additional features later on.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Binerals delivered a ready-to-implement design that fit well with our target audience and that we've received a lot of positive feedback on. The design was also easy to expand upon, adding additional settings and features without having to change a lot around. Binerals was also very quick in addressing any feedback or requests for changes, while being very budget-friendly.

Binerals delivered designs way sooner than expected, with short turnaround times for revisions.

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

Not really. The only thing I can think of is that some of the people at Binerals don't speak English very well, but they made sure that all communication with me went through people who speak excellent English, so this was never an issue.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am a Head Of Marketing at marketing company. We provide the ultimate platform for monetising all your dating traffic

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Binerals?

We hired Binerals to develop an experimental prototype of an anti-fraud engine that would save money by not paying for fraud leads.

What were your goals for this project?

Analyze incoming user information and respond to business threats quickly with the help of smart notifications and different types of moderation queues.

SOLUTION

How did you select Binerals?

We met them through one of our partners at the Affiliate conference, and their previous expertise and projects experience seemed to be the right fit to what we were trying to achieve.

Describe the project in detail.

We relied on Binerals to build a fraud prevention system that could respond to three central interactions. We wanted the software to analyze incoming user information for suspicious patterns and check blacklists with 3rd party providers to pre-qualify and label leads.

On further steps, the system analyzes user behavior on-site and sends out notifications when suspicious activity is detected. Finally, it helps moderators and marketers to respond to business threats quickly with the help of smart notifications and different types of moderation queues.

To facilitate those interactions, we had to define and build a list of rules to map to those requests. We had to come up with all of the different ways that users might trick the system. We had to build out that database as well to make it as user-friendly as possible.

What was the team composition?

I worked primarily with Igor (CMO, Binerals) and one ML/AI developer.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

This system serves us well as a marketing tool to this point. That fraud-prevention system is undoubtedly helpful and saved us a ton of money. It has enormous potential to become a stand-alone service for other businesses.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Igor was very good in terms of responsiveness, with really great developer to hand when technical issues had to be discussed. Very effective, never had to wait or had a feeling that there was an unnecessary delay.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The team delivered the functionalities the way we wanted them to be implemented. Binerals team is very easy to work with, punctual and precise, but also understanding and flexible. Human side of this IT company impressed us the most.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Nothing I can think of right now. We have a very productive cooperation with this team. I would re-hire them for similar project if something comes up and our in-house developers are overloaded. 

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

We provide you with world class back-end services including an intelligent machine learning communication solution, messaging systems, moderation, live chat, virtual assistants, a robust SMS-based calendar management system as well as voice, email and text based customer support.

Our admin tool to handle those massive database had to be improved - both backend and frontend, additionally we used ML consultancy from Binerals.

What were your goals for this project?

1. To reduce the costs on the platform support
2. To increase ML influence on thew internal B2B products; to cut the staff who handled it previously manually;
3. To increase the speed & the accuracy of the analytics tools;
4. To protect our IP from the potential hacking;
5. To optimize managers time spent on tech problems;
6. To optimize costs on tech team

SOLUTION

How did you select Binerals?

They have an outstanding reputation proved by my colleagues in the industry. Also their portfolio and each member's CV covers great high load projects, years of experience, familiarity with the latest technologies.

One of the main point was the involvement of their COO & CTO into the process. They were speaking with "numbers" and helped to predict financial improvements for our company from this partnership.

Describe the project in detail.

Working within a complex architecture, Binerals coded a professional marketing and data analysing platform. The platform features a complex payment system, ensuring the platform’s security and compliance.

They installed and maintained anti-malware as well. The team also moved and consolidated multiple servers to a more flexible cloud-based server. Other details are under NDA.

What was the team composition?

1 PM 2 Frontend developers 3 Backend developers 2 QA 1 Architect

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

They quickly understood our network issues, came up with a plan, and executed flawlessly.

1. Since the company implemented the auto-scaling option provided by the Binerals team, we have not experienced any downtimes in our system. The team's experience with AWS was immediately apparent as they developed and executed a flawless plan. With their excellent work ethic, they made sure that the flow, security, and performance control are always in great shape.
2. Binerals team has used React to develop the frontend of a web application. They then implemented APIs and integrated it with the rest of the application.
3. We saved around 20% of the costs on operators thanks to the new ML models.
4. We reorganised internally our PM department who don't need to handle tech problems/bugs/downtimes etc. troubles any longer and are focused on bigger goals for the company.
5. The platform received positive feedback from customers, particularly for being attractive and easy to use. It allowed us to increase the capacity of the "done" tasks for the clients already on 15% and it keeps growing.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Binerals team employs a communicative team and takes a straightforward approach, which has resulted in an effortless workflow. With their deep understanding of project needs and helpful suggestions, they delivered a platform that turned out to be better than the original concept.

Working with their team was easy but what sets them apart is their English proficiency, professionalism, and the involvement of their COO & CTO.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their knowledge of ML and the best practices they used was impressive. We could not only count on the quick action of the team, but also on substantive support for the designed solutions.

Binerals is exactly what we sought in a partner. Their team listens to us and documents everything. Even when they’re working on several different things, they meet all of our deadlines. I am very satisfied with the work and whole experience.

Are there any areas for improvement?

The team requires some time at the very beginning to get familiar with all project details. But quality, stability, cost effectiveness and meeting the deadline - were top 4 key factors for us and it was met at the end.

Our budget was exactly the same at the end of the project as the pricing offer which we've got after Binerals team has finished studying the project.

Technologies used are React and Relay (GraphQL) for the frontend, PHP7 and yii2 based framework, GrapQL, MySQL, REdis, Rabbit, Elastic Search, etc for the backend on AWS.

System architect, devOps engineer, backend, frontend and applications senior developers, UI/UX Designer, illustrator and project manager. Binerals marketers were also attracted.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

A goal was to build an MVP and launch the product into the market to get users feedback. The result exceeded all expectations. Binerals team made a really great product and we decided to continue the development. The process of MVP development was great - from the initial discussions and estimation to the working process, communication, etc. Top-notch team!

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

We used Telegram and emails for daily communications. Also we conduct monthly calls to analyze the work done and plans for the next month. We use Jira for project management, Bitbucket for source code. Video conferences over Zoom and Google Meets.

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

The team understands our ideas at a glance and helps describe and implement them exactly as we imagined it. This is an incredible synergy of our aspirations and their hard work and professionalism.

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

For a while, we could not find a common language with the illustrators, we changed several of them, but have not yet come to any result. I would like to see a better selection of personnel for this direction, as it happens among technical teams.
