6-10 Employees

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

We hired Dedicated Developers to completely rebuild our mobile app for both iOS and Android after a prior development firm left us with a broken, poorly executed product. The scope included UI/UX redesign, front-end and back-end development, API integrations, and ASO-driven strategy to ensure product-market fit and long-term success.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Even though we’re still in development, several measurable outcomes have already demonstrated clear progress and success:

• 100% redesign approval from our internal stakeholders and early testers—everyone agreed the new UI/UX is a huge leap from what we had.
• Blueprint phase completed in under 30 days, giving us a comprehensive product roadmap, feature prioritization, and go-to-market strategy.
• Reduced app load time by over 60% in initial internal builds compared to the clunky version we had from the previous team.
• Zero critical bugs reported in the first round of QA on the rebuilt iOS and Android MVPs—this is a major improvement from our earlier app.
• ASO and product-market alignment already producing insights we’re acting on pre-launch, giving us a head start on user acquisition and retention strategies

The biggest win, though, is the restored confidence we now have in our product and team. For the first time, we believe we're on track to launch something users will love and that can scale into a 7–8 figure app business.

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

Their project management has been excellent—organized, responsive, and proactive. They use a state-of-the-art cloud-based system called TeamWork Project Manager, which keeps everything transparent and on track. Milestones have consistently been delivered on time, and they've adapted quickly to our feedback and evolving needs. Communication has been smooth throughout.

What was your primary form of communication with Dedicated Developers?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

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

What stood out most was how deeply they cared about the success of our business, not just the app. Their I2A Blueprint process was better than anything I’ve seen from other firms—it felt like we were co-creating a business, not just outsourcing code.

They also brought in ASO and product-market alignment experts from day one, which made us feel confident we were building the right product, not just a pretty app. Their ability to think strategically, technically, and commercially is rare.

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

Honestly, nothing major comes to mind. After our negative experience with a previous vendor—which cost us over $50,000 and 18 months of lost time—we were cautious. If anything, I just wish we had found Dedicated Developers sooner. We wasted 18 months before discovering them. If you're building an app and want to do it right, start with Dedicated Developers.

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

Dedicated Developers is currently rebuilding my mobile app. They’re redesigning the entire UI/UX, restructuring the code architecture, and helping shape the product for long-term growth. Their ASO and marketing teams are working alongside the dev team to make sure we’re set up for a strong launch.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

• Prototype Completion: Successfully completed a fully interactive prototype with positive internal feedback on design and gameplay.
• Development Milestones: On track with sprint timelines—core game mechanics, backend architecture, and UI elements are 80% complete.

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

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

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

Nothing major. Maybe a visual dashboard for tracking weekly progress could be helpful, but their communication and updates are already very clear and consistent.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.:

I advise and invest in a meditation startup. Our goal is to give people an easy and enjoyable way to meditate using a mobile app that feels smooth and natural to use.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address?

At first, we just needed help building a meditation app—something user-friendly with a clean design. Once the first version was out, we realized we needed to make it better: improve retention, boost visibility on app stores, and give users more reasons to come back regularly. That’s when we doubled down and decided to rebuild it the right way.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement and team dynamic?

Dedicated Developers didn’t just write code—they helped us rethink the whole experience. Their team pointed out weak spots in our first release and came back with ideas that actually made sense. Since then, we’ve been working closely with their design team, development team, and even their ASO experts to relaunch the product with a clearer focus. It’s been a joint effort all the way through, and their communication has been solid—lots of updates, and they’re quick to jump on calls when needed.

What's the status of this engagement?

We’re still working together. The new version is in progress and looking much stronger. We’re refining the UX, improving performance, and gearing up for a proper launch.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

How did your relationship with your partner evolve?

They’ve earned our trust over time. At this point, they understand our product and audience almost as well as we do. It’s less like hiring an outside team and more like having long-term collaborators who care about what we’re building. They stick with us through changes, delays, and brainstorming.

 In what ways can they improve?

No real complaints. We’ve had some back and forth on scope at times—partly our fault for making midstream changes—but they’ve handled it professionally and kept the project moving.

What advice do you have for clients with similar needs to yours?

 If you’re building a serious product and want a hands-on and honest team, they’re a great choice. Don’t treat them like a task-based vendor—include them in your thinking and strategy. You’ll get better outcomes that way.

Project summary
Dedicated Developers is building a meditation web platform and mobile app. The solutions support audio libraries and visual content, which can be managed and modified via a web app.

Feedback summary
Internal stakeholders are pleased with the current state of the project and expect the solution to be finished on time. Dedicated Developers have introduced a powerful management tool, allowing for constant feedback and smooth communication. Their wholesale investment has been quite appreciated.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m an investor in and consultant for a startup in the meditation services industry.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Dedicated Developers?

We hired Dedicated Developers to create a B2C platform for people everywhere to engage in meditation. The platform had to have an intuitive and beautiful design so people could easily meditate, using the app as their instrument.

What were your goals for this project?

We originally intended to grow our clients by scheduling all our events and uploading partial meditation sessions for free on the mobile app. As our idea has grown, we've started aiming for a higher number of monthly downloads and targeting individuals outside our current client base. We’ve also started offering full meditation sessions for premium accounts. With a well-planned marketing campaign, we aim to hit at least 10,000 downloads during the first 30 days after the launch, with 15% conversion for paid subscriptions.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We came across them on Clutch. After contacting a few of the top-ranked companies in New York, we got in touch with them. A couple emails, phone calls, and face-to-face meetings helped us see they would be an engaged partner. Their cost fit perfectly with our financial requirements as well.

Describe the project in detail.

They’ve developed our platforms for both web and mobile. Most importantly, they created a library for our audio and visual content that’s manageable via a web application. This application was built in such a way that we can create, edit and/or delete sessions and customize them depending on the user's account (premium or not). After the app goes live, Dedicated Developers is going to provide support.

What was the team composition?

I’ve been in contact with the co-founders, a project manager, two programmers, and a designer. We've met face to face and online through a Teamwork project management system.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The project hasn’t gone live yet but we’re very satisfied with how the app is coming. We’re close to the MVP delivery date, and aside from minor issues, it’s looking great. Results from beta testing will come in soon.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Dedicated Developers introduced us to a digital platform (Teamwork) where we can manage and follow up on deliverable progress. We love working on it because it’s easy for us to add comments and insights on specific stages of the project. The communication with both their development team and co-founders has been very easy, too. 

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their full commitment and engagement since day one have really captivated us. We know they may have different ongoing projects, but resources have never been a problem. Communication with the co-founders is still continuing when needed.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Initially, we thought their pricing was a bit higher than what we had in mind. But, fortunately, it hasn’t been an issue. They’ve been very transparent with their pricing from the beginning and have met all the deadlines. There hasn’t been any need for extra resources or hours.

Since working with Dedicated Developers, we’ve seen a 423% growth in revenue between 2019 and 2024. This year, we’re on track to double that. We’ve also unlocked the ability to test and deploy new ideas quickly, thanks to their 24-hour development cycle and consistent delivery. The ability to scale our tech infrastructure so smoothly has been a game-changer.

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

Their project management is outstanding. I’d send over tasks in the evening, and by morning, everything would be done. Communication is excellent, and the team works independently while keeping us informed. Their workflow allowed us to become a 24/7 operation without even trying.

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

Dedicated Developers basically handled it all. They built the app from scratch and put together a team of 8–10 people, handling both the front-end and back-end. They used tech that’ll scale with us as we grow, which is important.What I liked is they didn’t just code and call it a day. They actually helped refine my ideas to make sure the app would be easy for customers to use. Right now, we’re at the MVP stage, but things are looking solid, and we’re aiming to launch by July.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

So far, the app’s still in progress, but I’m happy with where it’s at. Yeah, there’ve been some tweaks and adjustments (that’s normal for a project like this), but they’ve been super responsive when I give feedback. Overall, I’m confident the app’s gonna be a game-changer once it’s live.

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

The project manager and business analyst have been great. They helped take my messy ideas and turn them into something real. Communication has been smooth—Slack for the win—and I always know what’s happening. It’s clear they’ve got a solid plan in place.

What was your primary form of communication with Dedicated Developers?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

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

 Their communication and how professional they are. The team isn’t just “yes people.” They bring ideas to the table that I wouldn’t have thought of. It’s a real collaboration, not just “here’s what I want, go do it.

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

 I don’t have much to complain about yet. Once the app’s live, maybe I’ll see areas to tweak, but for now, they’re doing a great job.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I am the CEO of a new company whose mission is to ensure everyone has access to safe products and the correct information to navigate the twists and turns of daily life.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Dedicated Developers?

We needed support developing a mobile application.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Dedicated Developers built iOS and Android applications from scratch. My initial vision was to create a user-friendly personal security app for the general public. Dedicated Developers built my app and played a crucial role in helping me decide on the best features and how to incorporate them effectively. Then, Dedicated Developers proceeded to build the app and successfully launched it. The app’s main feature was to anonymously record audio and video and give the exact location of users. 

What is the team composition?

I worked with around 12 teammates from Dedicated Developers, including mobile developers and UI/UX designers.

How did you come to work with Dedicated Developers?

We were working with a previous vendor that didn’t meet our needs and was far from our location. I decided to look for a different service provider in our local area since I felt uncomfortable working with a company I couldn’t communicate with locally. We contacted six firms, and Dedicated Developers stood out for their professionalism and easy communication style.

Moreover, Dedicated Developers struck me as appropriate collaborators and potential partners to build a genuine alliance for this project. Additionally, Dedicated Developers agreed to start the project from scratch, and the owner made me feel comfortable and was easy to reach.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent around $150,000 with Dedicated Developers.

What is the status of this engagement?

We first contacted Dedicated Developers in November 2022 and started to work together in March 2023. Our engagement ended in September 2023.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Dedicated Developers successfully launched our application with excellent quality. The team resolved bugs identified during beta testing, and the testing team was impressive. We had various versions of the Android and iOS applications before launching the app, which took a lot of time. Still, Dedicated Developers understood my vision and was a great asset to finish the project. 

How did Dedicated Developers perform from a project management standpoint?

Dedicated Developers first launched the app’s iOS version, and the Android version had more bugs. However, the team met most of the project’s deadlines and had excellent project management. We communicated through daily emails and Zoom meetings.

The team was easy to talk to, and everything worked seamlessly. We had close communication through daily emails and Zoom meetings, unlike our previous vendor, who had terrible communication skills.

What did you find most impressive about them?

I was most impressed with Dedicated Developers’ communication skills. Dedicated Developers’ owners and team members were very prompt and professional in answering all my questions, ensuring flawless communication across our teams.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I can’t think of anything for Dedicated Developers to improve — they met all my expectations.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I recommend seeking Dedicated Developers for unique projects because they’re good at answering clients’ specific needs. We had a hard time finding a company that could perform our project, and Dedicated Developers believed in our project and provided a developer who shared our vision and was engaged in our project.

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

• After making the app available to our internal team, we have started using it and have seen a significant increase in our internal efficiency. Our entire team is thrilled about the app, and we are confident that we will work with Dedicated Developers on the subsequent development phase. The app has received positive feedback internally (from our team) and externally (from our clients), and we are pleased with its overall reception.

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

Dedicated Developers utilized a cutting-edge project management system that enabled us to share our ideas and feedback at any time of the day. They provided weekly updates at a minimum during the project's initial stages and even more frequent updates as the project progressed. This allowed us to stay informed about their team's work and the stage of our project at all times.
