Goodspeed

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm product lead at a small startup that we are building.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Goodspeed, and what were your goals?

Our goal is to setup a booking platform for our services. Goodspeed helped us in building the tool on Bubble.io and testing it out.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

The most important factors for us were:

• Tight timeline (Goodspeed is able to work fast and know the pressure and changes that you have to make as a startup)
• Price (They offered a much better price in combination with the timeline than rather big agencies)
• Personal interaction (they seemed to understand our problems really quickly)

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

• Key deliverables: Web application for booking platform with databased logical surveys, a booking service, a checkout and a payment integration as well as booking confirmation.
• Time:  4 weeks
• Tool: Bubble.io

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

3 people: Project Lead and 2 Developers.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

Not yet as we are currently in the middle of launching the site - what I can already say. It will help us move most of the steps that we are currently doing manually to a digital level.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

We had weekly standups followed by a continuous whatsapp conversation. This made it easy to work together and exchange quick needs and requirements.

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

They work quickly and flexibly on a very tight timeline.

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

Payment integration is not finished yet which is not completely on them - problems with local payment providers. But maybe be a little bit more pushy on this one. More proactiveness in regards to design and also what we could have done differently Very happy overall.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the CEO of a Brand Analysis Platform based in Stockholm, Sweden.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Goodspeed, and what were your goals?

We wanted to create a digital version of our consulting services in the form of a web-based app with login and payment solution. We knew how it should look and function but needed help putting it all together. We wanted to develop in bubble.io so we could do adjustments afterwards and weren’t dependent on outsourcing small changes.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We searched online for people who were experts in Bubble and found that Goodspeed had all the components that we were looking for. They listened, stayed positive and came with relevant feedback and suggestions from the very beginning.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

We had a kickoff meeting where we planed the project together. I delivered the planned designs that Goodspeed coded. First we solved the UI before landing workflows and database. We had a couple of iterations that I appreciated so much.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

A project manager made sure the project ran smoothly. I also had one main developer as a contact along with a second developer for certain minor changes.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

We haven’t launched yet but the feedback we get through demos is outstanding. Client's are very impressed and ca’t wait to try it out.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

We used WhatsApp and Loom which help to make easier to understand changes or difficulties that needed to be solved.

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

Goodspeed listened to my needs and worked hard to get it done. They were fast and very helpful.

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