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

Codeus shepherded PartnerMATCH from initial requirements through live production by running workshops to nail down architecture and data flows; designing and iterating intuitive UI/UX mockups;  developing a responsive front end; automating AWS deployments with pipelines; delivering detailed API, and user hands-on training; and providing two months of post-launch support and enhancements, including an administrative dashboard.  

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Accelerated Delivery: Launched production build two weeks ahead of the original 10-week timeline.
Reliability & Quality: Achieved >80% automated test coverage, maintained system uptime at 99.9%+, and kept post-release error rates below 0.5%.
Operational Efficiency: Reduced average search response time to under 300 ms for paginated result sets.
User Adoption: Onboarded three pilot customers within the first month of launch.

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

Codeus managed PartnerMATCH using a lightweight Agile process, breaking the work into two-week sprints tracked in Jira and reinforced by weekly sprint planning, daily stand-ups (via overlapping US–Montenegro time windows), and bi-weekly sprint reviews with live demos. All planned deliverables—UI components, API endpoints, matching-engine iterations, test suites, and deployment pipelines—were completed on schedule, and in fact the production release shipped two weeks ahead of the original timeline.

They were highly responsive to our evolving needs: change requests (like the unplanned administrative dashboard) were scoped, estimated, and slotted into upcoming sprints within 24–48 hours; urgent bug fixes were triaged and resolved within a business day; and architectural recommendations (caching strategies, service modularization, security hardening) were proposed proactively. Throughout, communication channels (Slack for real-time chat, Confluence for documentation, and regular video check-ins) remained open and transparent, ensuring that any question or issue was addressed immediately and without friction.

What was your primary form of communication with Codeus?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

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

What stood out most about Codeus was their blend of deep technical expertise and genuine ownership of our success: despite working half a world away, Milos and Pavle embedded themselves in our processes as if they were on-site, anticipating needs and suggesting high-value enhancements (like caching strategies and modular service designs) before we even asked. Their proactive communication—transparent status updates, rapid triage of issues, and clear sprint planning—kept us perfectly in sync, and their willingness to shoulder full DevOps and security responsibilities meant we never had to worry about compliance or stability. In short, they didn’t just “deliver code”; they became an extension of our team, continually raising the bar on quality, performance, and partner collaboration.

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

Codeus did an outstanding job from start to finish—delivering a robust, production-ready PartnerMATCH platform ahead of schedule, integrating seamlessly with our team, and continually surpassing our expectations with proactive recommendations and flawless execution. Their technical expertise, clear communication, and unwavering commitment to quality made them feel like an extension of our own organization. We couldn’t be more pleased with their professionalism, responsiveness, and the exceptional results they delivered.
