UpWork

Why did you select CodeMerx over others?

• Pricing fit our budget
• Expertise matched problem requirements

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

We would like to have a simple "Hello World" Electron app that is able to detect an RGB device (such as an RGB mouse or keyboard) connected to the computer and change its color, specifically by using the windows.devices.lights Windows namespace.

In order to do this, you will need to make a simple "wrapper" or nodejs addon for a few of the properties and methods of the LampArray class of the Windws.Devices.Lights namespace. We will need to access the property "LampCount" and use the method "SetColorsForIndices".

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The delivered app successfully achieved the goal of controlling RGB lights using the windows.devices.lights namespace

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

Yes, deliverables were delivered early.  They were very responsive to questions throughout.

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

We had a really difficult problem that we, even after months of trying, could not figure out, and we hired CodeMerx to take a crack at it.  They took the time to really understand the problem and then gave us a thoughtful and reasonable analysis that included multiple possible outcomes.  

The problem was risky - at the start, we were not even sure that a solution was possible.  But, we went for it, and CodeMerx ended up finding a solution in a single day.  Totally amazing.  We had previously hired someone else on the same problem, who failed to find a solution at all. 

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

No, the project was completed successfully quickly and under budget

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

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

• Modernize and Upgrade the Legacy .NET Framework
• Refactor and Optimize the Existing Codebase
• Enhance Deployment Pipeline and Configuration Management
• Develop and Implement New Features to Improve Functionality

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

The scope of work for this project involved modernizing and enhancing my booking software platform, which required expertise in working with legacy .NET applications and complex system architecture. CodeMerx was responsible for upgrading the system from .NET 3.5 to .NET 4.5 Web Forms, ensuring improved stability, security, and long-term maintainability. This migration allowed the platform to run more efficiently while remaining compatible with modern development standards.

In addition to the framework upgrade, CodeMerx worked extensively on refactoring and optimizing the existing codebase. They identified and resolved inefficiencies in the legacy code, significantly improving system speed and reliability. Their work included optimizing database queries, streamlining backend processes, and ensuring the overall architecture was scalable and maintainable.

Beyond optimization, CodeMerx also developed and implemented new features to enhance the platform’s functionality. These improvements were designed to improve the user experience, introduce automation, and expand the system’s capabilities to support future business growth. Throughout the entire process, their communication and schedule flexibility were the best I have ever experienced. They adapted seamlessly to the project’s needs and delivered high-quality work efficiently, ensuring the system was modernized, optimized, and future-proofed.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The project resulted in several measurable improvements that directly impacted the platform’s performance, stability, and usability. After CodeMerx completed the .NET framework upgrade, system stability significantly improved, with faster load times and reduced downtime. The platform is now future-proofed, ensuring long-term support and compatibility with modern development standards.

Code optimization and refactoring led to more efficient database queries and backend processes, reducing unnecessary load on the system and improving response times. This resulted in a smoother user experience and increased system reliability, which is critical for a booking platform handling multiple transactions.

While new features are still in development, the improvements made to the system architecture and scalability have laid a solid foundation for future enhancements. With the optimized codebase, rolling out new functionalities will be significantly more efficient and seamless. CodeMerx’s work has positioned the platform for long-term growth and success, ensuring that future updates can be implemented without unnecessary technical obstacles.

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

CodeMerx’s project management was exceptional. When they took over the project, there was no documentation, and several critical files were missing, making it difficult for most developers to navigate the system. Despite these challenges, they quickly took control of the situation, demonstrating deep technical expertise and efficiency.

I had previously gone through several highly skilled developers, but none of them could handle the complexity of this project. CodeMerx not only managed to do it—but did it with impressive speed and precision. Their ability to assess the codebase, fill in the gaps, and execute the necessary upgrades was beyond my expectations.

They provided daily updates on their progress, ensuring I was always informed about what was being worked on and why. More than just delivering results, they also took the time to educate me on the inner workings of my own application, which was invaluable. Their responsiveness and willingness to adapt to my needs made the entire process smooth and stress-free. They delivered everything on time and exceeded my expectations in every way.

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

What stood out the most about CodeMerx was their exceptional skill level, clear communication, and honesty. I’ve worked with many developers, but their ability to understand, troubleshoot, and execute complex tasks with speed and precision was on a completely different level.

Beyond their technical expertise, their communication was outstanding. They provided daily updates, explained their work in detail, and made sure I fully understood the changes they were implementing. Unlike many developers who overpromise or lack transparency, CodeMerx was upfront about everything—from challenges in the system to realistic expectations on timelines and deliverables.

Their combination of expertise, efficiency, and integrity made them a truly standout development team. I always knew exactly where the project stood, and their guidance gave me a much better understanding of my own platform. Their honesty and professionalism set them apart, making them an invaluable partner for any serious development project.

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

Honestly, CodeMerx exceeded my expectations in every way, so there’s nothing I would change. Given the complexity of the project, they handled everything efficiently, communicated clearly, and delivered exceptional results. They approached every challenge with skill, speed, and professionalism.
