I’m the CFO of Elevate Health Australia, a registered NDIS provider.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

SOLUTION

Designpluz has developed an admin portal to obtain information from a couple of sources and create a CRM and case notes from other platforms to reduce man hours and provide risk grades and alerts to possible issues. The team has been responsible for the entire process.

What is the team composition?

We’ve worked with 6-10 teammates from Designpluz.

Designpluz’s project management has been fantastic; I can’t fault it. We communicate via in-person meetings, virtual meetings, and emails or messaging apps.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Designpluz?

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Designpluz has developed our platform from scratch. The team has taken our project from concept to launch in Australia and New Zealand. The platform has complicated functions and backend admin portals that link with other systems and create APIs. Designpluz has handled the design, development, testing, and ongoing support of the platform.

What is the team composition?

We’ve worked with 6–10 teammates from Designpluz.

How did you come to work with Designpluz?

We had a previous relationship with Designpluz, having worked with them on a couple of projects. We chose them because they have an Australian presence with a physical office in Australia.

We started working with Designpluz in January 2026, and our engagement is ongoing.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I'm the director of a company that provides skilled labor and maintenance services to the food and beverage packaging industry, helping major Australian brands address machinery complexity and workforce challenges.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Designpluz?

I needed a mobile app for my team to start and stop shifts, as well as see their timesheets. It includes an admin portal that helps me manage staff, rosters, timesheets, shifts, and more.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Designpluz provided custom software development, including an Angular web portal, .NET RESTful API backend, and React Native mobile app uploaded to the iOS and Android stores. The team handled the project end-to-end, including workshopping and discovery, project planning, business analysis, UI/UX design, testing, ongoing support, and planning future phases of development.

What is the team composition?

We worked with a project manager.

How did you come to work with Designpluz?

I found them through a referral. I trusted Designpluz based on a previous project we worked on — my website design and development.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent around $25,000 AUD (approximately $16,000 USD).

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from August–October 2025.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The software has helped me improve processes in my business and reduce administrative work greatly by putting the timesheet responsibility on the employee rather than having my team chase them for their hours. In terms of hours reduced, we saw a 1–2 hour per day reduction in repetitive tasks of chasing timesheet confirmation from my employees.

Moreover, the timesheets are now much more accurate and consolidated into a single admin portal. Previously, I used hard copy timesheet books, and each employee would send me a photo of them. I needed to review the images and add them into my accounting software.

How did Designpluz perform from a project management standpoint?

Designpluz had a great project management approach. I would call it structured, planned, transparent, and effective. We primarily communicated with the project manager via phone and email. They also did an online walkthrough of the UI designs and UAT environments.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Designpluz didn't just develop whatever I told them. They first understood my business requirements and suggested a digital solution that actually solved those issues rather than developing blindly. This greatly increased the value and ROI for my company.

Are there any areas they could improve?

They managed the project extremely well. Overall, I was a very happy customer.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I'm willing and likely to refer others to Designpluz.

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

The whole design and implementation of a unique trading platform suited to SIX Invest's requirements was included in the scope of work.  In order to comprehend our distinct business model and consumer expectations, Designpluz started by doing strategy and exploration sessions.  After that, they created an intuitive user interface and a strong backend that could manage portfolios, handle safe transactions, and integrate data in real time with financial systems.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

SIX Invest was able to successfully launch and run its ethical investment services without experiencing any technological difficulties thanks to the project's very robust and effective trading platform.  Because of the software's user-friendly design, new users had a seamless onboarding process, which greatly increased engagement and retention.  Investors profited from a smooth interface that made responsible investing easier, and internal staff experienced quicker campaign management and simpler data tracking thanks to the unique admin dashboard.  All things considered, the platform's functionality, dependability, and user happiness amply illustrated the project's success and conformity to our corporate objectives.

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

During the whole development period, Designpluz showed outstanding project management.  They made sure every milestone was reached on time, kept lines of communication open, and gave frequent progress reports.  Deliverables were regularly turned in on schedule, frequently with time for internal review before moving on to the next stage.  The group was very receptive to our input, promptly adjusting to requirements modifications and providing well-considered suggestions when required.  We were reassured that our project was in competent hands from beginning to end because of their well-organized workflow and cooperative approach, which made the process seamless and transparent.

What was your primary form of communication with Designpluz?

Email or Messaging App

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

The ability of Designpluz to combine technical know-how with a sincere comprehension of our objective was what most impressed us.  Instead of only concentrating on creating useful software, they took the time to comprehend the ethical investment market and turned that understanding into a platform that feels user-centered and purposeful.  At every turn, their attention to detail, design sense, and dedication to quality were apparent.  Additionally, their team managed to strike a unique mix between professionalism and creativity, guaranteeing that the finished product was not only aesthetically pleasing but also strategically in line with our objectives.

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

Although we had an excellent overall experience with Designpluz, one aspect that may be improved is the early incorporation of more thorough scalability discussions.  Even though the platform works incredibly well, long-term planning would have been easier if there had been a clearer roadmap for future integrations and possible feature expansions from the beginning.  However, this was a tiny detail in an otherwise outstanding cooperation, and their adaptability and readiness to change later in the process more than made up for it.

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

Designpluz built a proprietary Client Loan and Advisory Platform (SaaS) tailored to our lending workflow. The scope included complex UI/UX design for both the client-facing portal and the internal advisor dashboard, integration with credit bureaus and various bank APIs for real-time rates, and the implementation of a secure document upload feature. The platform manages data validation and compliance checks automatically. Key Deliverables: Custom CRM/Advisory Web Platform, Secure Client-Facing Portal, Document Management System, and API Integrations for lending rates.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The new platform delivered measurable improvements across our advisory funnel:

Reduced Client Onboarding Time by 60%: The automated data collection and validation process cut the average time to start a client application from one week to under two days.
Increased Data Accuracy to 99%: By centralizing data entry and enforcing validation rules, we virtually eliminated the manual errors previously found in spreadsheets.
Improved Advisor Efficiency by 35%: Our advisors now spend 35% less time on administrative tasks, allowing them to focus more on high-value client advisory and growth.

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

The project was managed flawlessly. Designpluz used a practical Agile framework with short development cycles, which allowed us to test features early and give immediate feedback. All critical milestones were delivered on time, including the API integrations which we expected to be a challenge. They were highly professional, and our project manager was quick to respond to all compliance and lending regulation queries, ensuring the final product was legally robust.

What was your primary form of communication with Designpluz?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

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

Their commitment to data security and compliance was most impressive. As a financial services firm, this is non-negotiable, and Designpluz approached the entire build with the necessary rigor, integrating security protocols and audit trails from day one. They didn't treat compliance as an afterthought; they built the architecture around it. This gave us immense confidence in launching a public-facing client portal.

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

A minor point for improvement would be providing more options for the initial design mockups. While the final UI/UX design is clean and effective, presenting a broader range of visual concepts early on might have accelerated the final design approval phase slightly.
