SOLUTION

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

Lloyds Digital has redeveloped and implemented a new design for our website. Our previous website was 10 years old, so we remade it. Thanks to a government financing initiative, we've also had the team introduce a webshop as an additional option. Lloyds Digital has programmed the website, and we've provided the design work to ensure it aligns with our vision.

The team has rebuilt the website almost from scratch, around 95%. The website's core functionality was to be a representative idea of our company and look better than our competitors. Lloyds Digital has aimed for the site to be a representative picture of our business for potential B2B businesses, similar to a digital portfolio.

Lloyds Digital is also responsible for our site's hosting and maintenance.

Our primary contact from Lloyds digital is Nikolina, who has been our account manager. We communicate with her, and she coordinates the staff we need for our project.

How did you come to work with Lloyds digital?

Our marketing agency recommended Lloyds digital. We worked with a marketing agency for the last three years, and they referred us to Lloyds digital for our technical development. The original idea was to have the marketing agency do the design, and Lloyds digital do the development, but we ultimately created the design in-house, and the team did the development

What's the status of this engagement?

The project if finished and everything is running smoothly.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

How did your relationship with your partner evolve?

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

During the project's first stage, given the standard norms necessary for the government initiative, Lloyds digital performed well, but since then, the team has missed our deadlines. We've also experienced communication difficulties.

Lloyds digital communicates with us via email and phone calls.

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

I can't point out anything particular that has been very positive. Lloyds digital has positive things, but nothing too extraordinary.

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

They’ve done a fantastic job developing our website. Everything works perfectly, and there’s truly no room for improvement.

What advice do you have for clients with similar needs to yours?

Lloyds Digital helped us redesign our website. We wanted a responsive platform to generate more online bookings and expand our business.

SOLUTION

What is the scope of their involvement?

Lloyds digital did web design for us using Figma. We started the process by sketching the website and coding it, which they connected to our sales platform.

Currently, they're helping us with the maintenance and hosting of the website.

How did you come to work with Lloyds Digital?

We searched online and talked to some specialists in the technology area. We found different companies and got some offers. Still, we chose Lloyds Digital because they are a well-known agency in Croatia and were also recommended to us by some associates. Moreover, they immediately seemed like a perfect fit because they understood our needs. 

What is the status of the engagement?

We started the project in September 2020, and the engagement is still ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

They've delivered everything according to our needs and expectations so far.

Their best attributes are their communication, work ethics, and understanding of our needs. Moreover, we appreciate their willingness to have an open mind and listen to us.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I don't think there's anything they can improve on — they're extremely flexible and responsive to our needs, and we'd like to recommend them to everyone.

Any advice for potential customers?

Prepare well for the project, talk to them, and be present during the process.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

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

We wanted to have a mobile app which will serve primarily for ferry ticket purchase, but with additional values like information of all routes, live ship positions, ticket selling and info points, current weather and traffic situation, data about destination ports etc...

SOLUTION

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

By word of mouth and competitive offer

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

Lloyds Digital lead us through the project from whiteboard to testing stage and then to the first live version. There were two steps - first version was published with just a basic function (electronic ticket selling), and later we published second version where all additional live data (positions, weather, traffic...) were integrated in the app.

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

I don't know the exact scope of their resources used internally, all was coordinated through just couple of persons. We mostly spoke with Project manager who coordinated development and kept all under her control.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

As we - TP Line (ferry company) - just started commercial business this year, we do not have numbers to compare. What I can say is that ticket purchase through the App exceeded our expectation. The application was straightforward and easy to use.

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

They are very well organized company. No any problem in communication, on the contrary.

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

Quick feedback to our needs.

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

For sure there is, everyone can improve. At this time I cannot pinpoint any particular area.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

We are a leading professional association for online publishers and other digital advertising industries. My position: Executive Director

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Lloyds digital?

Our first conference needed an identity and a logo and Lloyds provided that - and much more. They offered us support in everything design-related that one event needs. From social media templates, web design, and animated web banners to prepress for the T-shirts and award sculptures.

SOLUTION

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

Lloyds Digital is a known agency in Croatia so they were recommended to us by a few associates. They were an immediate fit - not only because of their experts but also because they organize a conference themselves. Their experience was very valuable since they could come up with solutions that were a true fit for an event.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

After an initial meeting where I explained the vision of the event and went through a questionnaire with the designer, they set up a mood board based on that meeting and all of the other information I sent. After that, we went through the mood board and I delivered the feedback for it.

The next step was a design proposal - logo, and visual identity, followed by mockups. The proposal was approved and the designer made different designs and templates - landing page design, social media templates, web banners, accreditations, T-shirts…

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

Project Manager and a Graphic Designer

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Our conference gained a representative look across all platforms - on the web, in the social media, in the media, in-person…

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

I was working with the Graphic Designer directly and we had frequent updates. Since event management can be very dynamic, I had to change some of the requests frequently and we were always aligned. I was very happy with the communication and responses from the whole Lloyds digital team.

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

Their work ethic, their communication, and their understanding of the problems and challenges event management can bring. And the fact that they nailed the design proposal in one attempt.

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

Nothing, I loved the whole process!

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m an IT manager for a company that produces doors and windows from aluminum and plastic. We’re in Croatia and we have around 120 employees, and half of our production is exported to the EU and Switzerland.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Lloyds digital?

We needed help with custom software development.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Lloyds digital designed a custom mobile app and web app for gathering and storing data. The mobile app is built for Android devices. It allows our employees to insert their locations on the apps when they come on-site and take pictures of all the work they’ve completed. In doing so, we can track what they finish and what work still needs to be accomplished. The app also shows when materials are ready and when they can be picked up from the warehouse to go to the building site for assembly. Lloyds digital handles everything according to our requirements, and they’re now managing the maintenance of our apps.

What is the team composition?

I've worked with 5–6 people. However, I entered the project very late in the process. We have a point of contact that I’m in touch with for everything I need, and whenever there are meetings, there are 3–5 people present.

How did you come to work with Lloyds digital?

I wasn’t sure how we hired Lloyds digital. However, our headquarters was only 10km from theirs.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent around $75,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We began working together in April 2020, and it’s ongoing. They finished our customer mobile app and web app last October 2021.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We used to depend a lot on doing our business via phone calls and now we’re doing it more through the apps, so we spend a lot less time on some things. We’re also more accurate now and are able to reach project deadlines. Most of our employees are quite satisfied with the apps, but there are still some things that people would like to improve. However, I would say that it's not related to the design or performance of the app.

The ideas from the improvement that we have now are things we hadn’t considered before. If we had communicated those things back then, I know that Lloyds digital would’ve delivered. Despite that, I believe we will get those improvements done this year. We’re 95% satisfied with their work, and I can say they’ve met our expectations.

How did Lloyds digital perform from a project management standpoint?

They’ve done quite well in terms of project management. We had a couple of meetings in person and also via phone calls, but we mostly exchange emails. They’re quite responsive and I’m satisfied with their communication skills.

What did you find most impressive about them?

We appreciate their team’s dedication and proactive approach. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

I’m not really sure what areas they can improve. However, if they continue to grow, they’ll need to hire more people to handle their projects. For now, everything's fine.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Discuss your need openly and Lloyds digital will help you find the best solution.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

Media Val is a Croatia-based agency specializing in communication management and consulting. As a senior consultant, my role in the company revolves around servicing our biggest client Mastercard.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

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

We needed to launch a website for our client Mastercard that would serve as a content platform for their long-term project Uplift, aimed to empower mSMEs in Croatia. This website would become a unique place from which Mastercard in Croatia communicates with all their audiences: business partners and merchants (B2B), customers and potential customers (B2C), key opinion leaders in business, and the general public. Since we do not have the resources inside our agency to do so, we outsourced Lloyds Digital for this job.

SOLUTION

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

We received a recommendation from our business partner based on their previous experience with Lloyds Digital. We did however take into consideration a few other options, but when evaluating their proposals, Lloyds Digital turned out to be the best value for money option for us.

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

After the kick-off call, we arranged a workshop with the team where they guided us through the process of introducing them to the client, the industry, the overall project, target audiences, goals, etc. Based on the workshop we defined key milestones in the project and agreed on the timeline and deliverables. We had weekly check-in meetings where all major decisions were made. The technology used to develop the site was WordPress. We used Figma for communication with the team.

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

Four people: Project manager, Lead UX/UI Designer, Graphic/UI Designer, and Frontend Developer.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

What's most important for us - the client is very satisfied with the project. But also, in the first month after the launch, we recorded over 100.000 visits, 250.000 page views, and a bounce rate under 10%.

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

We had weekly/daily short meetings with the project manager (up to 15 minutes) where we discussed all current tasks and made all necessary decisions on the go. Comms tools used were email, Zoom, and Figma.

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

Although they are a young team, they do not lack the professional expertise and know-how in client servicing. We felt we could rely on them in every moment and that trust was highly appreciated and reassuring for us, as the deadlines from the client were impossible to start with.

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

There was one situation, a few days before the launch when we could not reach them all day, but they compensated that with some overtime the next day, so everything went well in the end.
