They had a project manager and QA assigned to my application who co-ordinates with my manager and staff and takes feedback after each milestone and there were some changes from the initial requirements for which they charged but the suggested the best.

SOLUTION

What is the status of this engagement?

We were working on the first phase of the website and there were a lot of issues in the functioning, they fixed some of them.

And then the team told us they did not have the bandwidth to work on the project anymore and handed over a website which was incomplete and had issues.

We had to find a new agency to work on the website.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

How did your relationship with the vendor evolve?

Initial few weeks the team was responsive and work was moving as per timelines. We were supposed to take the first phase life and start working on additional features for the second phase.

But towards the end of phase one we found that proper testing wasn’t done and there were a lot of issues. We had to keep following up constantly to get them fixed.

They did not inform us on time that they did not have enough resources to work on our project; timelines would just keep getting extended. If they had then we would have been in a better position to figure out a better alternative.

So after spending weeks trying to get the issues fixed and planning for phase two when they informed us that they wouldn’t be able to work on the project anymore, we were left with a website where a lot of core features were not functioning properly.

How did Emizen Tech address the challenges that arose?

While the team was unable to sort out our issue, the conduct of some of the team leads was highly disappointing and unprofessional. The team lead dismissed our requests to get on a call in a very unprofessional manner and also did not provide any constructive solutions.

Even when we just wanted them to properly hand over the website so we could go get it fixed somewhere else, they caused unnecessary delays by not responding to our requests.

Their conduct not only made us lose out on a lot of time and money, but we ended up with a website that didn’t even function.

Describe the impact this engagement has had on your business.

A project that was supposed to be completed in 5 weeks was delivered after almost 3 months. Timelines were not met and due to that we were not able to launch as per our plan.

The project was extended beyond the initial estimated hours so we had to increase the budget of the website once we were halfway through.

Even when we took the website live there were errors in the functioning due to which we couldn’t start operations.

As an e-commerce portal our website is the most important part of our business and without that we lost a lot of business and also ended up spending a lot more on this project than we had estimated; first with the delays in the launch date, then fixing the issues and once the team left this project midway hiring a new company so they could fix it.

How was project management handled?

When we started the project the team was able to help us plan out all the features that we wanted. 

When we started testing the website and issues started coming up they were not able to manage timelines and customer expectations properly. Communication was a challenge.

When the project kept getting delayed without clarity on timelines we had to escalate the issue multiple times before getting a proper response, post that they informed us that they wouldn’t be continuing with the project.

Is there anything that the vendor did well or that you would consider a strength?

The team that worked on the project showed a lot of promise and were helpful, but in spite of that, the website that was handed over to us had a lot of issues and they did not complete the project.

In what specific areas can they improve?

•    they need to be more honest with clients, and inform them about issues on time instead of misleading/ ignoring the customer.
•    they need to be able to estimate the project timelines and cost better instead of extending timelines once a project has started.
•    they should not take up projects if they don’t have the bandwidth and if they have taken it up then they need to see it till completion and not abandon it midway.

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

They seem to have great ratings and reviews, but our experience was not good. They did not complete the project and there were issues in what they delivered.
