Dev Technosys

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

Our company is Tutorie, and we provide Online Education services, as well as providing a number of competency test to analyse skills. I am the president of the company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Dev Technosys?

Our business is completely based in education, so we handle online videos. The biggest challenge is that we have very complicated structures for providing learner support, and we wanted to try and cut down on some of the time and monetary costs associated with that.

What were your goals for this project?

To integrate our study materials and lectures to the online tools.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We found them on online search at one of listing website.

Describe the project in detail.

We want to develop an education app for learner. Where we can manage video based content, Live Tutorials and Sessions. And after completed the course we want to test students knowledge by few of Testing Knowledge exams.

What was the team composition?

We had one main point of contact who was our project manager. And he managed two separate teams, one for the design and the other for development.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The quality of work that Dev team has provided is outstanding. Their commitment to delivering not only a product that we want but also one that is of high quality has been great. I’m extremely pleased.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We communicated through Skype and Zoom regularly. Team kept me updated weekly on progress. I met with several members of their Project Team on Zoom or Skype weekly to see demonstrations, discuss questions, resolve issues, and consider enhancements.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The fact that they are always ready to go and jump into a new aspect of the project really stood out to me.

Are there any areas for improvement?

I don’t have any complaints about their services at all

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the owner of a web solutions provider.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Dev Technosys?

I was looking for an offshore company to help with web and app development.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

They took my idea and created documents that translated it onto paper. They then developed a website, web app, and an iOS and Android app.

What is the team composition?

I work with a project manager, a main developer, a person responsible for Android and iOS apps, and someone responsible for payments. I have direct communication with them.

How did you come to work with Dev Technosys?

I did an online search for India-based companies, and I chose Dev Technosys. They were professional.

How much have you invested with them?

My company has spent $40,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in June 2019, and it’s ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We’re happy with their work so far.

How did Dev Technosys perform from a project management standpoint?

Project management has been good. I’m able to see what’s going on in my project on a weekly basis. They make me feel comfortable.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They stick to the timeline.

Are there any areas they could improve?

There’s nothing I’d have them change.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Share information in time so that you don’t make them late.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO of E7 Corp, a government contractor. We’re also getting into the medical industry.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Dev Technosys?

We had a concept for a healthcare app and needed it developed to an MVP. Dev Technosys was capable of taking it beyond the MVP. They also have experience developing mHealth applications. 

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Dev Technosys has been helping me from start to finish. I had a concept of what I wanted and some notes, but it wasn’t where it needed to be for development. Their developers conducted extensive interviews to take the concept from the notes and what I had in mind. They developed a project based upon that information.

The app is for iOS. It’s a unique app in the fact that it utilizes VA (Veterans Affairs) healthcare records. The VA has given us access to an API to obtain veteran records. By creating a bridge from the app to those records, all veterans can access their VA records. I haven’t seen that done anywhere else, so that’s one of our unique value propositions that Dev Technosys was able to help me bring to life. 

What is the team composition?

There was a marketing individual that walked me through the project. Then, there was a project manager. Rather than speaking to individual developers, I had one point of contact so that I didn’t have to navigate their internal structure.

How did you come to work with Dev Technosys?

We found them through a search, and they had some very good reviews.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent close to $30,000, if not a bit more.

What is the status of this engagement?

Our work together began in October 2019, and it’s ongoing. We’ve had to put it on pause due to COVID-19.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

They’re very responsive. I have access to the development server, so I’ve been able to check their progress. They let me know when they post something. We’ll talk through any issues, and then I’ll see them fixed. Obviously, there will still be bugs once the app is launched, but from what I’ve been able to see so far, they’ve been very responsive to any changes we’ve requested or bugs we’ve found.

How did Dev Technosys perform from a project management standpoint?

They’ve been excellent. I’ve worked with other developers in the past, and Dev Technosys is responsive. I don’t feel like they’re trying to charge me for every change that they make. They want to help fix issues. Communication is normally through email or WhatsApp.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their actual process, from bringing the customer in, taking the concept, and bringing the project alive, is their advantage over some other developers. When they intake clients, they put together the software development agreement, where they lay it all out in terms of the concept and what the project will look like. Many developers will say they can make your concept happen, but then you get into the project, and it overruns by six months. Dev Technosys is very well organized in getting the client to understand what the project will look like; they get all of your requirements during the beginning phases.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Honestly, I can’t think of anything that I wish they’d do differently. They’ve been pretty flexible. There have been times where I didn’t have the ability to communicate with them a lot because I was overseas and didn’t have access to comms, but they pressed on. I was in a part of Afghanistan that had horrible internet. However, when I was able to get connectivity, I’d check my email and see that they were asking me questions and providing updates. Their communication was better than mine.

They’re persistent in trying to get the work done. They don’t call 4–5 times a day to ensure payments are made. Everything is smooth, from the beginning to the end of their process.

Any advice for potential customers?

Be highly engaging from day one. When you’re trying to set the requirements and provide input, there will be a lot of back and forth, but they help you mold your project based upon their experience developing similar projects. They’ll let you know what will or will not work. Keep your expectations in check; one app can’t do everything.

I like that they talk about your customers as well. Figure out what the value-add to your customers is, and they’ll have that conversation with you regarding whether the app will or will not work.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the director of Vision Solicitors Ltd., a legal services firm. We specialize in corporate and family law.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Dev Technosys?

We needed someone to develop our website.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Dev Technosys developed our website from scratch. It is custom-made according to our needs, our clients’ needs, and our business model.

What is the team composition?

We are in contact with a project manager, and they communicate with the larger team.

How did you come to work with Dev Technosys?

I chose them for this project because they had previously done a good job on a project for me for another company. I originally found them through a Google search.

How much have you invested with them?

My company has spent $22,000–$24,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in July 2019, and the work is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The site isn’t live, but we can see how it works. The website is based on their server, which they gave us access to. They shared a link that we can click on to know if something is updated.

How did Dev Technosys perform from a project management standpoint?

The project manager reports to us twice a week about what’s going on. They are good about getting us updates if we need them. The only issue is the time difference; we have to wait to start working according to their office time.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They’re very responsive to whatever we need. They reply the same day or right away. They also have good customer service. If we send them a message at midnight, they get back with us the moment that they wake up in the morning.

Are there any areas they could improve?

The only thing I can think of is if they were in the same country, it’d be easier for us. Otherwise, everything is okay; we just have to adjust according to their time zone.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I’ve recommended them a couple of times. I plan to use them for another project I have coming very soon. I’m satisfied with what they do.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I'm the general manager of a supermarket chain in Tanzania. At present, we have six branches. We’re one of the first supermarket chains to offer online purchases.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Dev Technosys?

Basically, we wanted to develop an online sales platform. We appointed Dev Technosys to develop our application.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We provided Dev Technosys with our main requirements and expected functionalities for the platform. Based on those guidelines, they developed the platform. Their team continues to work on the e-commerce product.

What is the team composition?

I communicate with one point of contact who’s also a technical teammate.

How did you come to work with Dev Technosys?

We found them through a recommendation. At the same time, we searched for other agencies online. We considered 3–4 companies but Dev Technosys' proposal was economical and interesting.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent roughly $40,000–$45,000 on their services.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started the project in November 2019, and it’s an ongoing partnership.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We were the first supermarket chain in Tanzania to launch an e-commerce platform for online sales. The platform has created different fields for the whole company. It definitely had a big impact on us. 

How did Dev Technosys perform from a project management standpoint?

We have a good level of communication. We have a WhatsApp group, which makes communication simple. We also use Skype, which is where all the necessary individuals communicate. We also have e-mail exchanges.   

What did you find most impressive about them?

The level of understanding between us is beneficial. We gave them requirements and their team built the product to fit those requirements. We don't have to go back and forth with changes. Overall, their team's good.

Are there any areas they could improve?

They could improve on their statements. When there’s an overseas payment, a bank charge applies. That actually increases the cost of the final product. They should set a maximum for payments instead of an invoicing system for each stage.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Have fixed requirements to exchange with the developer. Our experience has been excellent, so we encourage others to invest in them. We’ve already referred them to 2–3 co-companies.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

Aprendo is a marketplace application for private tutors. We basically connect the dots between students and tutors. Our application and service help resolve classroom issues through video calls, reservations, photos, and written answers.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Dev Technosys?

We brought them in to develop the application.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Dev Technosys helped us build our application from scratch. They did our logo and then designed and developed our fully-working iOS and Android apps.

What is the team composition?

I don’t know how many people were working on Dev Technosys’ side. I was in touch with 3–4 people via email. Mohit (Team Leader) was our go-to person for resolving issues and maintaining communication.

How did you come to work with Dev Technosys?

We had discussions with some local companies in Argentina, but the technology scene here isn’t that good, and prices are very high. We went online and started looking for different companies. We got in touch with around 10 of them and discussed our idea, and we decided that Dev Technosys provided the best service.

How much have you invested with them?

The cost has been around $35,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with Dev Technosys in April 2019, and it’s ongoing. We just finished developing the app, but we have to resolve some internal company issues before launching them.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

There’s an 8–9–hour time difference between India and Argentina. We had calls with Dev Technosys at 1 a.m. our time — which is when they’re starting their day over there — as well as during our mornings, which is late-night on their side. We really appreciated that they took time outside of their working hours. We could reach them any time, despite difficulties associated with the time zone difference.

How did Dev Technosys perform from a project management standpoint?

Their process was very organized. We started with the logo, moved on to design, and then got into the coding itself. The management and organization around the development of the product were very good. It was all done in a very orderly manner.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Dev Technosys’ customer service and willingness to develop the best product possible impressed us. When we got the source code, we could always send it back for revisions or changes. They were very patient and cooperative with us so that we could develop the best product possible. We now have an app that we’re very satisfied with.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Everything was okay.

Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?

People that want to work with Dev Technosys should know that they’re in India and be prepared to only communicate with the team via email and calls. Being in Argentina, this is something we couldn’t change, but we would’ve liked to have sat down with them in-person to discuss things and see the product together. Then again, we’ve had a very good experience communicating with them via phone calls and email; it’s been very manageable.

I’m the CMO of a Learning Bull company that provides a platform for e- Learning for any edge group.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We had worked with Two Freelancers prior to working with Dev Technosys to try to get this work done. However, the expertise just wasn’t there. It’s extremely hard to find companies like Dev Technosys that have expertise across a range of different platforms. They had the answers to everything.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

They perform extremely well. They’ve got great project management systems Zoho. They set up a communication platform that all of us used for group meetings.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their level of technical understanding of applications, backend software, and cloud servers is phenomenal. They really understand the end-to-end of getting a product from concept to execution.

We needed help with web development.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Dev Technosys is developing our website using WordPress. The feature they proposed that I hadn’t thought to do is online 24/7 support. They explained how to make it happen and how they can actually help with that.

They’re going to help me to market the business as well. I plan to do the mobile app in the near future. We are currently talking about how to make the app and then integrating it with the website.

What is the team composition?

There’s a team of six people. When they move onto the app, they will bring in 3–4 people for that.

How did you come to work with Dev Technosys?

They were referred by a friend who had them develop one of his apps. The app left a good impression, which is why I selected Dev Technosys to do my website. Other companies quoted me $30,000–$35,000 and said that they would do the project by September or August, but I wanted it pretty quickly.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent $20,000–$25,000.

We started working together in January 2020, and the project will be done in June or July 2020.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

It’s been a good experience so far; I’m happy with the quality. They did a demo website, which I really like. They also did a website that’s currently online to collect customer feedback on what courses they want to have. That way, we can prepare the material and the courses on the website before they even start. I consulted one of my friends in IT, and he said the site is pretty good. It’s also open code, so I can learn pretty quickly how to use it. 

How did Dev Technosys perform from a project management standpoint?

Their customer service is really good. I hear back from them within 10–15 minutes. I give them 9–9.5 out of 10 for project management. We use Skype and Microsoft Teams.

They are able to do the project more quickly and for less money than other companies.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I have not had any issues with them.

Trust and listen to them. They have really good ideas that can help you in designing or implementing your idea.
