Intelivita

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the owner and director of CluedUpp Games. We run citywide murder mystery games based on our mobile app.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Intelivita?

Our app was available on Android, but we wanted to develop an iOS version as well.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

They developed an iOS version of our native Android app. Emphasis was placed on reproducing the app’s features and translating the full experience to iOS.

What is the team composition?

We spoke primarily with the project manager and on occasion, the lead developer.

How did you come to work with Intelivita?

We were looking for developers on PeoplePerHour to fix bugs on the Android app. After receiving various proposals, we hired Intelivita. They performed that task well so we contracted them to develop the iOS version.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent about £3,000 [$4,021].

What is the status of this engagement?

This project took place September 2017–November 2017.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Our users wanted the app on iOS for a long time and the feedback is evident of that. We’ve received a number of positive reviews on the App Store from users that say they’ve enjoyed the experience. A couple minor differences between the iOS and Android versions make the former easier to use than the latter.

How did Intelivita perform from a project management standpoint?

I've used a lot of web development companies over the last 20 years and the biggest challenge I find with them is not a lack of technical skills, but a lack of communication skills. However, I didn't have any issue in that regard while working with Intelivita. Being in the UK, their project manager was always available if I needed to call him. He often answered emails within an hour or two, but certainly within 24 hours and even on weekends. The lead developer and his team are based in India so we mostly communicated through the project manager. However, the lead developer assisted in solving specific development issues when necessary, via Skype.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their geographically split team was beneficial in terms of cost, quality, and communication. The project being managed in the UK, we could easily speak with someone who understood our app and the experience we wanted to cultivate. However, the development costs weren’t astronomical because their team’s offshore.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I can’t think of a specific area they could improve on. They offer a cost-effective service and I was happy with the experience.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

General advice for working with any company is to make sure the project details and scope are thorough and communicated effectively.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

Chatagram is a social messaging app that is designed to be more visual. Users can personalize it according to their preference. I am the founder of the company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Intelivita?

I needed help with developing the first version of the app for iOS and Android.

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted to begin the process of market validation. I wanted to see how many users I could interest in downloading the app.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I came across Oliver Baker [iOS and Android Developer, Intelivita] on a website for programmers. We discussed my proposal via email, particularly what it would cost to build an MVP [minimum viable product]. The price seemed reasonable, but we only met a couple of months later to discuss the start of the app development.

Describe the project in detail.

I had already built the screenshots for the app, but there were additional features that were required. From there, it was just a matter of making sure that they understood what I wanted the app to look like.

What was the team composition?

I was assigned a project manager after meeting with Oliver.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

They provide me with screenshots of the app design to make sure that they can proceed. They respond quickly to any issues.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

It has been easy to communicate with their project manager. I check my emails a lot to make sure I don’t miss his messages. I usually respond quickly since I want to be sure they are on the right track.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I’ve noticed that they are quick to respond to changes required for the app. They let me know when there’s a problem with the app and send updates as soon as it’s fixed.

Are there any areas for improvement?

None.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the founder and CEO of a new, online art gallery that will be launched next year.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Intelivita?

We needed someone to create a mobile application for us. It was difficult to find someone who was cost-effective and also knew what they were doing with augmented reality.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

I’m a graphic artist by trade, so I designed the frontend and user experience of the app. I gave the screenshot to Intelivita, and they did the code-level support and actual coding of the iOS and Android app.

They created an augmented reality, cross-platform app. It’s the first collage-style app where users can view images from their camera rolls or galleries on their phones. Users can create a collage and then view what it would look like prior to getting it printed at local stores.

They tested it and did the edits and changes, and then sent me back either screenshots or new builds. I’d download it on my phone, try it out, and give my feedback. It was a calibration exercise. They published the app for me, and also added Google AdMob, so we have advertisements on it as well (which users have the option to remove).

They’re developing another app for me as well.

What is the team composition?

There were 3–4 people on the team.

How did you come to work with Intelivita?

I was working with another freelance app developer before I found Intelivita. He was a single developer working from home, and wasn’t very proactive in fulfilling work. I thought I would have to pay for the app to be developed again due to the difficulty of finding people willing to work on the same code.

I looked on a freelancing website and contacted Oliver [Project Manager, Intelivita]. I sent him some details and he said that it was something they’d love to work on. I found that Intelivita could provide a good level of service for us, and that they had everything we wanted at the right price. They were also willing to work on the already-existing code. I couldn’t have been happier.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent under £1,000 pounds [U.S. $1,335].

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in June of 2017, and the engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

The feedback has been focused on the app’s innovative and unique qualities. It does what it promises. I’ve received suggestions, but no negative feedback.

How did Intelivita perform from a project management standpoint?

They performed very well. We communicate through Skype. They’re really proactive and good at communication, as well as making suggestions. We experienced no issues, despite a time difference. They have offices in both the U.K. and India.

I’ve worked with companies in the far east before, and it wasn’t easy because of the time differences and language barriers. It was quite refreshing to find someone who worked well with me. I would use them again without question. I highly recommend them. They produce high-quality work at a good price. I have nothing but good things to say.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They know what they’re doing, and the communication is good. They always respond quickly. We were never left questioning anything.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No. I’m very pleased with the service they’ve provided.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

It may be a totally different experience for someone who doesn’t have graphic design capabilities, like myself. The only advice I can offer is to have some sort of sketch or Photoshop screenshot that they can utilize. Give as much information as possible, and it will save a lot of time and energy later on.

At every milestone they would provide a test app, and we would go through it and see what we wanted tweaking,the team at  intelavita were very helpful to do this, and communication was prompt. We had multiple test apps, which showed the progression intelavita was making.

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

I came to Oliver at Intelivita back in September with my business plan and a some PDF slides I had made. He understood my concept immediately and gave me a clear outline of how they would build the app and how long it would take.

He then introduced me to Shishir and the team who helped me the rest of the way.

I am a creative myself and admittedly can be a bit difficult, going back and forth on small changes, or the slightest adjustment to spacing and the team have been great and very understanding.

I now have a brilliant app on the app stores which both aesthetically and functionally surpasses what I originally had in mind, I’m really proud and my company is set for good things.

Given the time difference communication has been seamless and I’m never waiting long for a reply.

I couldn’t be more happy with Shishir and all the team at Intelivita. It has been a pleasure and I look forward to working with them in the future!

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

Project manager Shishir was responsive and flexible, accommodating all our needs as they developed throughout the process. Expectation setting was generally clear, there were some delays which we worked through collaboratively, and we did also add/change some scope items through the process ourselves.

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

We were impressed with their responsiveness and flexibility to requests.

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

To make the experience even better, I would suggest the team can proactively notify clients of how long requests for changes will take and whether that will delay or impact the project. 

Testing-wise, we also picked up a fair amount of snagging issues ourselves by testing out the events, so I would recommend that testing doesn't just test 'functions' it actually tests user experience and more robust testing documentation about what's been tested, how, and what was found. We did find a lot of basic issues ourselves, recognising these were rectified quickly when we drew attention to them.

we came across Oliver Baker [iOS and Android Developer, Intelivita] via a referral from a project manager we was working with then he kindly put us in touch with Oliver and his team. we discussed the need for a website. We discussed my proposal via email, particularly what it would cost to build an MVP [minimum viable product]. The price appeared very reasonable, which was attractive to us. We then met via zoom call to discuss the start of the app development. We had the app built from scratch with additional features. Oliver and team worked closely with us, great communcation via a platform called basecamp making sure that they understood what we wanted the app to look like.

It has been easy to communicate with their project manager. checking our emails emails a lot to make sure I don’t miss his messages. we would usually respond quickly since I want to be sure they are on the right track.
