Excited

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the Sr. Scrum Master at an insurance technology comapny I am responsible for gathering business requirements and helping the team breakdown requirements into deliverable slices of functionality. We've created a micro loan for health care out of pocket costs.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Excited?

We had an agreement with our lenders to create a platform to view and purchase debt. While working on implementing this we had numerous other priorities to deliver, and only one designer to help implement it all. We reached out to Excited because we had worked with one of their designers before and needed additional resources to deliver the design for a new platform.

What were your goals for this project?

The end result was for Excited to design the platform and our internal system to support the platform. The design lead to development of a platform that will make ease of use for our lenders and long term investors.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We knew we needed additional resources to design the MicroLoan Platform and wanted to work with the designer who lead the look, feel and usability of our other applications. We had worked with a designer who was now with Excited who designed our other platforms and navigated through other contractors to get in-touch with him again.

Describe the project in detail.

We began the project working from a process flow that was defined from contractual language. When we hired Excited, they took the process flow and broke it into an experience map. The experience map was reviewed with business owners to ensure all requirements and intent was covered before diving into the design. We then began with the design of the Lenders platform. The look and feel was exactly what our business was hoping for. The design had to be user friendly and understandable while incorporating many metrics and numbers that could be exported and manipulated if need be. Throughout the project and as it continues we've evolved the design and MVP requirements to ensure a roadmap for the project agreed upon by the development, design, and business team.

What was the team composition?

The resources from Excited included two designers; one part time and one full time. One designer took the lead majority of the time on the project.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The project is currently ongoing. We've enjoyed working with the Excited designers. There is a level of ownership and confidence from them that can be unmatched. Our COO, CFO, and CTO have been heavily involved in the project and are consistently amazed at the designers ability to be three steps ahead of their requirements and thoughts.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Designers from Excited are easy to work with. At least one of the resources were available when we needed them even across such drastic time zone differences. The designers integrated with the scrum team seamlessly. Excited was able to jump into our project management tools without issue, and helped us to transition to a more efficient design tool.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I and our business leaders have been consistently amazed at how Excited Designers were able to visualize the business requirements. The designers anticipated needs the business that the business team didn't know they had, and consistently delivered high quality designs.

Are there any areas for improvement?

We're beyond impressed with the Excited designers, and will recommend them, and hopefully continue to use them in the future.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the founder of EntrepreneursNet.Net in association with the Entrepreneur's Network, a global network of founders, business owners, entrepreneurs, and aspiring entrepreneurs. We help members succeed in growing their business profitably.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Excited?

We launched a new website and a new group of services. We knew our UX wasn’t as strong as it could be, so we wanted to engage an expert.

What were your goals for this project?

We needed a new UX design and customer journey.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We found them through Upwork and an RFP process.

Describe the project in detail.

Excited and Oleksandr (Co-Founder, Excited) worked with us on UX design. Specifically, he developed and documented member features and developed a UX map that included the current and proposed user journey.

What was the team composition?

Oleksandr led and delivered the project.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

I was very happy with the process and experience of working with Oleksandr. We’ve had much to do to improve our processes, and as we get through some of the necessary changes on our website, I anticipate working with Excited again.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Excellent. Oleksandr was professional, and the documents were clear and easy to follow.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their UX expertise stood out.

Are there any areas for improvement?

I have no issues or concerns. The project was done well.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the founder of a startup building a platform to simplify the process of scoping new software.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Excited?

We hired them to conceptualize and prepare high-fidelity designs of the new software. They were also required to create high-quality videos for promotional use.

What were your goals for this project?

We aimed to have several high-quality videos demonstrating the key unique features of the software. We wanted the videos to promote the software and assist developers in building the application to understand how it should work.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I went through the process of selecting prospective vendors that had the appropriate skills, experience, and portfolio projects that were relevant to our project. I chose several to start on the project as a trial, then remained with Excited, as they delivered the best results.

Describe the project in detail.

We provided them with a project brief and came back with initial questions. We had a call to discuss the project and clarify any issues. We agreed on a set of milestones for the project which progressed as we went along.

Some areas needed more time than originally planned, and the deliverables therefore needed to be adjusted. We held catchup sessions most days to ensure the progress continued and the changes were in line with our expectations.

What was the team composition?

All contact was through a key project manager.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

They understood the problem and prepared an initial design that was exactly what I was looking for.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Our project manager was very easy to work with, clarifying and incorporating feedback without any issue. Our communication was effective despite the time zone difference. Changes to the delivery schedule were no issue.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their excellent communication and constant delivery ensured a great outcome.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Perhaps in the future when preparing videos, it would be quicker to prepare static designs, then animate them to increase the turnaround time. Other than that, the project was run very smoothly.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

We provide a business listing service focused on connecting service providers with potential customers.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Excited?

We needed a team to review the UX/UI of our existing mobile application and provide recommendations for improvement.

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted a more user-friendly app, and we wanted to leverage their work to improve other areas of our business.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We looked at various freelance websites like Guru.com, Upwork and Fiverr. We shortlisted the Excited team after looking at their portfolio. We chose them after a conversation with Oleksandr (Co-Founder, Excited) where he asked insightful questions that showed their expertise. They also put together a very thorough proposal which was easy to understand and reasonable.

Describe the project in detail.

They put together an initial assessment within a week and reviewed it with me. They then spent another week creating recommendations to address the issues they’d found. I passed these recommendations to my development team for incorporation into the app.

What was the team composition?

I worked directly with Oleksandr and he was my primary point of contact. He engaged other members of his team as needed.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Their recommendations and insights made our app more user-friendly and easier to adopt.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

I usually spoke with Oleksandr early in the morning and reviewed the updates and progress the following day. He is very flexible and his estimates are reasonable and close to the actual number of hours spent. We worked through Upwork, so most management was handled through a combination of Upwork and mutual understanding of the proposal.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

They were timely, professional, and acted as a partner.

Are there any areas for improvement?

No, I can’t think of anything.

SOLUTION

Excited designed and developed our corporate website using Figma and Webflow. Initially, they scheduled a kick-off meeting, during which we provided them with all the needed materials, including the copy. We created a dedicated space in Notion where we detailed our request and provided examples. Excited proposed a couple of directions in the design via Figma, and we went into detail as we validated the direction. The website included 2D and 3D animations.

What is the team composition?

We worked with Excited’s founder and president, a project manager, a lead designer, two animators, and two programmers.

How did Excited perform from a project management standpoint?

Excited delivered the work on time and within budget. They communicated well with us, using Slack as their preferred means of communication. They invited us to their Slack environment, and we also used Zoom and Google Meet for calls. We exchanged emails at the beginning, but we ensured that all the day-to-day communication happened on Slack.

Anastasiia did a good job.
What did you find most impressive about them?

Excited was attentive to detail and quick to reply to our requests and feedback.

Are there any areas they could improve?

It would have been helpful to have more visibility on the fees incurred to date. The team could confirm that we're all aligned on the approach given before executing work.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I recommend making an effort to have a fee checkpoint and have them send the number of hours and the associated amount worked periodically.
