BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm a contract front-end web developer for a company developing software solutions for HR and Finance.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Goji Labs?

The company had an email form that needed to send the collected data to an API endpoint using the Wordpress platform.

What were your goals for this project?

Since I am unfamiliar with the technology and terminology, I was looking for someone who could guide me through the process as well as completing it.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

They were recommended by a mutual friend and after an intro call I was comfortable that they could complete the project and it would fit in with their schedule. I did talk to a couple other companies but was happy with the communication from Goji labs.

Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.

They found a contact form plugin that could be extended to include API post information and configured with the details from the client to collect the necessary information needed as well as adding styling the form to match the rest of the site.

What was the team composition?

I communicated directly with David of Goji Labs on the project.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?

The site just launched and is still in Beta mode so no information to share yet.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

Project management was effectively arranged over email.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I was impressed with the communication and the personal touch. They made sure that we were happy with the work.

Are there any areas for improvement?

I would have liked an overview of the work completed and what was added for my own education but not sure if it would be necessary for other projects.
