Color Code Studio

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

Amelia Print is a new and unique digital platform in Mexico, where we sell invitations for different kind of social events. The difference between Amelia Print and other companies, is that users can choose their favorite design and customize it, change its color, write down their information and see the final design instantly. We have by now more than 100 designs in different categories, and each design has its own suite, which includes placing cards, reception cards, envelopes, menus and table numbers. We will have more and different products the next year. I'm a co-founder and executive director there since February, 2019.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire COLOR CODE STUDIO, and what were your goals?

We hired Color Code Studio for the website development, since the project is complex and required a strong knowledge and professionals in the subject.

SOLUTION

How did you select COLOR CODE STUDIO and what were the deciding factors?

We made a good research between a lot of developers and we interviewed them personally. Victor, their director, assured us that they were able to make everything possible. As I mentioned before, the project has been challenging for all of us, but they have always given us good options so we can choose the best for us and the users.

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

Before we contact them, we already had the website started by other developers, but they weren't able to finish it with all the requirements. So during the interview with Color Code Studio, we showed them the previous website to let them know what was missing there. They told us they were starting it all over again.

They sent us the quotation including timelines of each part of the project. We sent them the photos, logos, typeface, the whole design of the website, so they could start building the new one.

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

Their director has been always the main contact, but we also had contact for some months with two other developers who were working on our project, and I think also a designer for a few tasks.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We launched the website just a few months ago, so we don't have a lot of information about it, but we have seen that the users understand the website and navigate satisfactorily.

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

They sent us a file with the timeline of each part of the project. We had constant communication by emails, WhatsApp and sometimes meetings in Amelia Print's office.

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

They managed to organize all of our ideas about the design and customized products instantly. Also, how to upload the files so they can work in the website and the users can edit them in their profiles, etc.

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

There were some minor bugs, but they were able to fix them. They could improve that sometimes when we asked them for corrections, they forgot a few details, so it took longer for the work to be done, but at the end it was everything ok.
