Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Our product is complicated, customizable with over 10K SKU's it is very challenging. We needed to show our product in a way that makes it easily understandable for the consumer, a dealer, a designer etc.. They only way to achieve this was via Metadata. ITGeeks designed a custom product that is used for all our products. The many levels of variants and options was made possible to display all the proper info when variants change.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

For anyone to comprehend our product and to have the ability to lay it out in one meeting is remarkable. We were afraid that this was never going to happen as someone had to grasp what was going in order to produce anything. That alone was what sold us from day one. To be able to complete the work in a timely manner shows their ability to maneuver through many types of services that they offer. These two factors is a measure for success in our eyes.

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

The communication throughout project was stellar. Our project manager was fantastic in communicating and answering our questions, friendly, professional and knowledgeable. The project was delivered on time which was huge. There was a mutual respect of each others time and an understanding of requests that were being asked. It was a pleasant experience even knowing the amount of work involved.

What was your primary form of communication with IT-Geeks?

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

Again, comprehending the scope of work was so important. Communication as well. Both could not have been any better. Everything flowed, how they showed us with video on how to do certain things, always keeping us updated where and when things will be completed.

Are there any areas for improvement or something IT-Geeks could have done differently?

Always room for improvement. Nothing major just tightening up on certain things is all that needs to be mentioned. Yes, communication was impeccable but maybe a little more explanation with a little more detail in certain areas where things get a little more tricky. Metadata is new to us and very powerful. Just took us a little while to comprehend how it all went together. Answering each question directly I would say is helpful when there is lots going on. This was done most of the time. There were a few times we had to really comprehend the answer if there were multiple questions being asked. All in all they did an amazing job.

We were looking for a company to work with that could help design and bring our new company website to fruition and we were pleasantly surprised by the work that IT GEEKS did for us. They built that sight on Shopify for us setting up hundreds of products to be sold through our ecommerce store. 

It was a very complex project with many moving parts of building a retail store website from scratch and throughout the whole experience they were very communicative and responsive to our calls, feed back and questions. They were able to deliver a professional looking website that has the ability to scale up as we scale up.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

We went from having no website presence of our own to having a complete store now that makes us very excited to see how the future shapes up and how we may be able to reach more customers through soical media and other non-traditonal media.

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

I worked with a couple of guys who I would say broke theproject up into two halves and each did their piece masterfully. Both kept great communication lines up and both delivered on the tasks at hand needed to design, implement and complete the project.

They really were personable and made you feellike you were working with a great teammate.

Are there any areas for improvement or something IT-Geeks could have done differently?

I really can't recall anything that egregious that warrants bringing up here to cast them in any sort of bad light at all.

Below is the scope of UX changes we needed made to our code within our new Shopify theme. IT-Geeks delivered everything quickly and ahead of time. They are strong communicators and they always ensure the final product is exactly as I wished for before they wrap up their work. They are not afraid to continue to go back and get it perfect before they complete everything. I appreciate that. 

1. Ensure that the top navigation bar remains sticky in the header without converting to the mobile header while scrolling. 
2. The top navigation bar will now smoothly collapse to the mobile header as soon as it can no longer support a single row, providing a more responsive user experience. 
3. The "Four Easy Payments with Shop Pay" section will be relocated below the product description copy block on the product page. 
4. The image thumbnails will be moved to the left side of the main image vertically, aligning with the current theme's layout. 
5. We will incorporate your custom fonts throughout the entire site, following the copy headline and paragraph sizes from your existing site for consistent font usage. 
6. The "Powered by Shopify" attribution in all footers will be removed to create a clean and branded footer design.

We hired ITGeeks on a monthly retainer to handle many dozens of small tasks to improve the quality and user experience on our website. This included content updates and coding improvements, that in aggregate would have taken hours of our own time each week.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

There were no specific KPIs other than functional and visual improvements to the website.

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

We used our own project management tool to delegate and follow up on open tasks.I would say 95% of the tasks were delivered on time, an other were not simply due to unforeseen or additional complexity of the task.

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

ITGeeks has been an incredible partner in enhancing our Shopify website. Their team consistently delivers high-quality work with remarkable speed, ensuring that our site runs smoothly and efficiently. What truly sets ITGeeks apart, however, is their approach to communication. They are not only responsive but also incredibly friendly and easy to work with. This seamless interaction has made managing our website a much more enjoyable and stress-free experience.

Are there any areas for improvement or something IT-Geeks could have done differently?

At this point in time, I cannot say that I fault them on any count.The only improvement suggestion I could make, and that will consistently add value to all retainer customers, is to proactively remind the client if they have unused retainer hours, thereby encouraging the client to use their services all the more.

IT Geeks implemented a fully custom product page template for our e-commerce store. They were able to execute against a visual that I provided that showed the styling that I wanted to see across different elements on the page, and also showing variance in ways that I had intended them to. 
There were some tricky logic involved with the toggling between different thumbnails of images on the product pages, but they were very patient and working with me through these issues, and we were able to resolve all of them.
The final product page is something I'm very happy with, and will be a page that we work with for a long time. We also introduced a distinct shopping flow to our pages which would add Meadowfields to the shoppers experience that would direct them to specific pages after adding something to the cart. 
This was also fairly tricky to implement and took several rounds of edits, but again they were very accommodating, and we were able to execute a really solid solution at the end of the day. 
And finally, they implemented many small fixes to various quality of life snags that we had been experiencing on our website since it had been developed last year. 
This included things like bulleted lists, not appearing correctly on our pages, the hamburger menu, not functioning correctly on mobile, certain elements the original developer had created, would disappear at times. They fixed all of these, and give us certain elements the original developer had created, would disappear at times.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Every single scope we hired them for was delivered exactly as they promised. And being more than a month out since they completed each of these scopes, I can attest to the durability of the solutions they implemented. In fact, the performance of our site has improved over the last month.

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

We had a dedicated project manager who worked with me across several distinct scopes of work. My project manager was very responsive, and they delivered all solutions within the time frame proposed. The only exception was a particularly complex scope we hired them for, which took a few weeks longer than originally expected, but that was ok as there were several unforeseen technical challenges to work through. 
They did not bill us for the extra time on the project, and the end deliverable was of very high quality. The project manager was very responsive, always replying within a few business hours of my questions and requests.

What was your primary form of communication with IT-Geeks?

• Virtual Meeting

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

Their commitment to getting it right. There were a couple of times where I felt like a solution wasn't perfect, but good enough to push live, and they insisted on continuing to iterate on the solution until I was fully happy with the deliverable. That really impressed me.

Are there any areas for improvement or something IT-Geeks could have done differently?

Not at this time. Hiring them was one of the better professional decisions I've made this year.

Also done perfectly. I then needed the number of pages on my product pages to be removed and replaced with button which loaded more pieces on the same page. The button was put in custom. The look, the colour and the size of the button as well as how it performed was all done perfectly also.

We are yet to go live with our website so we do not have an outcome as of yet, but I can confidently say that my website looks overall a lot more welcoming
