BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the founder of Unimorn Energy, a tech startup company. Our first solution for energy systems is already running.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Digiqt Technolabs : Full-stack Web Development Expert?

Our solution had a cloud interface, so we needed consultancy for AWS.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Digiqt helped us build a highly scalable IoT platform for monitoring and capturing solar panels and windfarm sensor data. They were responsible for the development and UI/UX. They also provided AWS consultancy. We wanted to make sure it was a vendor-agnostic cloud. They showed us the whole setup with AWS and how it could be replicated to other cloud storage. Then, they set the requirements and whole synergy for the cloud and designed our backend as well.

Initially, we explained the whole problem, and there was a lot of back and forth. When we had a new requirement, they’d offer a solution, and then we’d agree or disagree to it.

We didn’t want them to develop the whole thing because we wanted our entire team to be trained. Their work was primarily consultation, but they were also involved in multiple phases of our team-building process.

What is the team composition?

I only engaged with the project manager. I’m not sure how many people were on the team.

How did you come to work with Digiqt Technolabs : Full-stack Web Development Expert?

It was a complex project. We were scared we wouldn’t be able to find anyone who could deliver the solution. We approached 10–12 different companies and found them on LinkedIn. Digiqt was the only company with expertise in the various domains we required. They were suitable for a full-solution delivery.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent less than $10,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in February-October 2019. When we’re in a crunch with something, we just drop them an email. It’s more like friendly advice.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

They delivered good quality work for the price we paid. I’d highly refer them to anyone who looks for complex backend development with some frontend development.

How did Digiqt Technolabs : Full-stack Web Development Expert perform from a project management standpoint?

Everything was on par. We followed an agile methodology, so we worked in sprints. We used Google Chat and email for communication.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They came from a business perspective and told us we needed to be scalable, which was very helpful for us. Overall, they cared about our project and budget. We trusted them.

Are there any areas they could improve?

They could add more technology. As far as I know, they were still using AWS, and maybe they should go with other cloud providers.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Be very clear with your requirements and who your customers are. We had a lot of back and forth going because I had a very blurred idea.
