The extension prototype and the web platform were delivered on time and met the initial requirements. We are now conducting thorough testing and gathering user feedback, which helps us prioritize features for further development.

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

The project was managed efficiently with a streamlined approach. Communication was clear and concise, keeping us informed throughout the development.

Fively initially provided support and minor improvements to the existing no-code-based portal. Later, their team undertook the complete redevelopment of our platform using modern technologies, including NestJS, Postgres, AWS for the backend, and React with MUI for the frontend. This involved redesigning the application’s architecture, implementing new features, testing, and deploying the rewritten product. After the new solution was released, Fively continued to assist with occasional maintenance and small updates.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Thanks to Fively’s efforts, the re-engineered platform has been live and operational for 3 months already. This revamped version offers improved scalability, performance, and user experience, enabling us to better serve our partners. Although the active engagement has scaled down to minimal maintenance tasks, the platform remains stable and reliable, which is critical for our business operations.

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

During the redevelopment phase, we worked with a small but efficient team of 3 engineers from Fively. Their process was structured, and they maintained friendly communication throughout the project, ensuring we were aligned at each and every step. Their responsiveness and ability to adapt to feedback stood out during both the intense development phase and subsequent maintenance periods.

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

The only thing that could be improved is the occasional miscommunication with engineers, usually because the requirements were misunderstood. But this is normal at work, and any issues were quickly and professionally resolved.

A team of engineers from Fively had to develop a marketplace from scratch. Therefore, their crew was also quite large and consisted of 4 specialists: 3 web developers and 1 DevOps engineer.

But here's the exciting part: we've identified the problem areas and defined the steps needed to reorganize the project, making the most of the existing code. 
This approach is set to significantly decrease the complexity of the backend codebase. Despite the challenges, they've tackled the issues head-on and managed to make progress. It's clear that their passion and determination are there, even when the code doesn't play nice.

While Fively web engineers' expertise and dedication are unquestionable, I'd like to see them using Jira and other time-tracking tools with more engagement. The high task volume and tight deadlines have undeniably presented challenges for this, but aligning their skills with these tools will undoubtedly optimize our workflow and lead to greater success. Other than that, I have no suggestions about their work.
