BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the owner and founder of an online platform that connects student musicians to colleges and vice versa. This platform is like a musical version of LinkedIn, destined for students and college directors in the musical field.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Konstant Infosolutions?

I was trying to find a company that could build my platform. I can build websites based on templates, but I didn’t know how to build a progressive web application that was functional both on desktop and mobile devices. I hired Konstant Infosolutions to help me with this project.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

First, I emailed a sales representative lady from Konstant, who was my first point of contact. I spoke to her and laid out the whole project, and she walked me through the process and helped me understand their involvement.

After we finished the introductions and I signed the contract, I worked with a business analyst person. He acted as the middleman between the project manager and me, and he took my notes and helped me tweak my ideas.

Now, Konstant is developing my web and mobile app, and I have Zoom calls with the project manager and the business analyst when needed.

What is the team composition?

The business analyst from Konstant is my main point of contact, but I also contact the project manager when they’re available.

How did you come to work with Konstant Infosolutions?

I found them doing research online, and I found their reviews on Clutch.

How much have you invested with them?

I’ve spent around $40,000–$44,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

I started talking to Konstant in March 2020 and signed the official contract in May 2020. I launched the platform on April 2021, and we've gotten feedback from my customers. As this is a new idea in my niche, people have different requirements, so we’re still working together, going through a couple of changes, and making a few tweaks as I’m learning new things.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Konstant was able to expand the fundamental concepts and principles of my business and create a platform that is easy to understand and digest for the consumer — that has been really helpful.

Their understanding of graphics is great, and the layouts were very nicely done. Additionally, I liked how they incorporated my style into the platform. I had a Wix template on my main page, and Konstant studied it, adapted it, and was able to implement it. That was a very nice touch, and I appreciated it.

How did Konstant Infosolutions perform from a project management standpoint?

I really like Konstant’s collaboration on ideas. After going through a couple of calls and emails, they understood the project and tried to give me ideas to add to it and make it easier to understand for both sides of my target audience, which was very refreshing.

In terms of communication, we use Skype and Zoom.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Konstant’s collaborative process and understanding are great. They also understood the challenges in terms of budget. Last year, I wasn’t able to work for many months because of COVID-19. I was upfront about that, and they gave me discounts and better costs on different parts of the project.

This made me feel that they really cared about it, which has been really refreshing. Their understanding blows my mind — they’re really helpful.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Working with Konstant, I’ve faced a couple of issues that could be improved. First, their customer service is different compared to here in the U.S. If there is a mistake, which is understandable on occasion, there is a lot of back and forth that could be avoided to begin with. 

At times, their attention to detail could be improved by thoroughly reviewing emails and/or files, notes, etc. 

Finally, we’ve had a couple of issues with the timeliness of meetings but they improved over time.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Make sure that you fully think through your idea. As this is my first time doing a project like this, there have been some things that I initially didn’t know. Thus, I’ve had to request a lot of changes on things that I thought would be included.

Additionally, make sure that you get a project manager involved. Initially, the business analyst was my main point of contact, and some of my requirements got lost or misunderstood when he communicated them to the project manager. Since the project manager has been on the calls, they’ve understood my requirements better, and it all has been smooth sailing.

And I had found what I have looked for and still in work to improve this app, and work on other projects as well.

SOLUTION

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

Given that the vendor is in another country, I have searched through the internet and researched multiple vendors online. From the reviews found on the internet and from the ratings given by many reputable sources including clutch I decided to physically visit them all. In 3 separate trips to India, in the cities of ahmedabad, Delhi, and Jaipur. After meeting face to face with all the candidates, given the preplan that I was shown from Konstant, the questions asked of the project in hand, and the clarity of the discussion were the deciding factors to make my choice.

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

First it was the preplanning and getting points clear. Then it comes to the designs and the wireframes to make to give a blueprint as a clear vision of how the app will look like and the links between each feature. Then documentation is the roadmap of the application. the next is the development and the deployment on server. Where Konstant takes all that was discussed in pen and paper and agreed upon and transform it into an app. Of which we test together and approve of the work done. The technology used was native IOS and Android applications with a marketing website

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

One BDE, One BA, 2 Project leads, 2 development leads, one Design lead.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The outcomes of the project are very good and promising. Within a month of moving the app live on both apple and google stores and a week from starting the marketing campaign we have seen each day increasing number of app downloads and we believe its going to be a very successful product. All the delivered features work perfectly fine, and in case of any issues the support team is always ready and prompt in looking at it.

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

Communication due to corona situation has limited our talks and discussions to online meetings after we managed to be able to meet face to face in some occasions before the virus. We have daily discussions on numerous ongoing add ons and improvements on app feautres. These are mainly through skype and zoom meetings. where we share our screens. The timelines are accurate, before the start of work the cost and the time needed for each step is calculated and presented and we abide by the schedule and work accordingly so that each party can plan their works.

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

The most unique feature about this company is the challenge they accept with every new idea brought to the table. In which they never have a no as an answer to every new feature or idea we have. It is why I have been able to share openly everything with them and after some time see it in my phone in a form of an app. Their knowledge and expertise in development is very special in comparison with the experiences I have before in app development

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

I believe they did everything as should be done. Given the struggle of the virus, the long distance communication, the struggles that both sides were facing, we both managed to have very good results. from what I've seen till now its near to perfection.
