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

Project management was well structured, with clear objectives, tasks and timelines that were regularly monitored through weekly follow-ups.

Some topics were more complex and required discussion and collaboration from both sides, but we worked together to evaluate the different options and find the best solution for each situation.

What was your primary form of communication with Escolhadigital?

Virtual Meeting

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

What I found most impressive was the way the company assigned specific professionals with different areas of expertise to each part of the project. This multidisciplinary approach brought together people with complementary skills, resulting in a more specialized and high-quality service and allowing each aspect of the project to be handled by the right expert.

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

One area that could have been improved was the initial planning of the product portfolio database. Given the complexity and the large number of product variations involved, a more detailed analysis of the database structure and implementation model at the beginning of the project could have helped us avoid some of the time spent later redesigning it after the first implementation. That said, the team showed a high level of adaptability throughout the project and was always willing to adjust the approach to meet the specific needs and challenges of our business.
