Kloc Technologies

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

Owner / Creative Director

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

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

Kloc Tech helped me to create two shopify stores. One of the stores is for regular online streetwear apparel, and the other is for apparel and music.

On the streetwear apparel side, we specialize in silicone sculpted apparel as well as apparel made from more commonly known fabrics.

Having, such a niche market in silicone sculpted apparel created some challenges in regard to how to calculate price and weight as well as how to showcase and explain this non-traditional product.

Kloc did I great job helping us overcome all the challenges that presented themselves, and would not stop until we were completely satisfied with the end results!

SOLUTION

How did you select Kloc Technologies and what were the deciding factors?

We saw Kloc as a recommended consultant on Shopify, and went with them on a whim. It ended up being a fantastic decision!

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

We had an initial meeting to discuss our goals over Skype. Then, Kloc presented us with the project steps, key deliverables, and guided us through the technologies used all the way to completion.

It is worth noting, that even after completion we still keep in touch them for any extra work needed that comes along.

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

We worked with between one to four different team members; however mainly two were our point of contact.Their roles were manager and lead designer / engineer.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

I was in close contact with Vishal and Priyanka at Kloc, and I must say they did an amazing job of answering all of my questions and making sure our sites could be the best that they could be!

I am very grateful for all of their hard work even until today.

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

Our communication was primarily through Skype and sometimes email. I could contact them any time of the day, and they would always respond to my inquiries as soon as possible. Most of the time, I had a reply back within hours.

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

Great communication and awesome work! Thanks for not only doing a great job, but also making us feel like family.

Are there any areas for improvement?

I wish they had a sales and marketing department that could help us more in that area.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the owner of Raw Nutritional and we sell vegan protein, superfoods, and eco-friendly kitchen items online and in stores. We also own a sports manufacturing facility that produces vegan sports supplements.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Kloc Technologies?

We previously worked with a firm that was charging us excessively for just minimal work. We needed someone to redesign and develop our website — specifically on the front page.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

The majority of their work is on the design aspect of our Shopify site. They updated our front page and provided highlights of every product. 

They also customized the collection on the product page and how it was shown. Moreover, the team did some design work for the page banners. Right now, they’re mostly working on the interface to make it more user-friendly.

Kloc also manages the liquid code in the backend of the website.

The nature of the work is always changing depending on the issue on the website. At the start, they only worked on the homepage, but now they’re working more on the blog section or if there are any issues with the coding. We buy a bank of hours and allot each task with the hours they worked on it. Every time I send them a task, they remove the appropriate amount of hours from the block I purchase. They don’t quote me for every project — they just work on it and I trust them for the hours they’re doing.

What is the team composition?

Initially, I spoke with Abhi (Director). She then transferred us to one of her colleagues, Vishal (Project Delivery and Client Relationship Manager), who I regularly kept in contact with since then.

How did you come to work with Kloc Technologies?

Their team was featured on the Shopify website as one of the top experts in the field. We contacted them and didn’t even try to contact any other company because we were already satisfied with their firm from the start.

Their pricing is also better compared to the previous firm we worked with — especially with all the service they provide.

How much have you invested with them?

At this point, we’ve invested around $5,000–$10,000 maximum.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in January 2020 and our partnership is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We can’t really scale their work based on the sales we do from our website because there are so many variances that can change that—like our monthly promos and returning customers. However, their ability to precisely accomplish a task has been on point and done perfectly.

If things aren’t clear enough, I correct them and they will work on the changes immediately. We never have to wait a long time before changes are implemented.

I know many people love our new website as we haven’t had any negative feedback regarding its design. Usually, when people complain, it has more to do with when things aren’t working properly.

How did Kloc Technologies perform from a project management standpoint?

We have never imposed a deadline but when we send them a task, we ask them to do it as rapidly as possible. We don’t have to mention when we want the task done because they always respond 1–2 days after we’ve given it to them. Not to mention we have a time zone difference. I never wait more than 3–4 days for tasks to be completed.

If it’s a bigger project, like the first one we did together, they have always updated me on its progress through email with all the details of what they have worked on.

They always make sure to answer my points clearly so I can easily follow along. They’re really genuine with their work and they’re not abusive. They’re not hiding any issues just so they can correct me every time and take my money. They’re honest people who want me to do well the first time around.

What did you find most impressive about them?

I’m impressed with the speed of the work and all the details they provide. I have never seen anything like this in the technology field.

Are there any areas they could improve?

At first, they didn’t really get what the company was so it was maybe difficult for them to get the sense of the industry and the vegan crowd. However, since we’ve been working together for a year now, they have figured out exactly what we want. 

We had issues with the design of the front page and the banner but once we told them what we wanted it to look like, they applied the corrections immediately.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I would just say to explain your project really well. I always try to put as much information as possible and repeat the details to make sure everything is on point.

In addition, make sure you tell them to work on the backend of the website as opposed to the live one, so customers can’t see the changes until we approve them.
