The scope of work was a full website redevelopment aligned with our recent rebrand, delivered using Webflow. The objective was to create a modern, scalable platform that supports lead generation, improves user experience, and clearly communicates our multi-service offering.

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

Project management was strong throughout the process. Communication was clear and consistent, with regular updates on progress and next steps. Items were delivered on time in line with the agreed schedule, and any delays were communicated early and managed proactively. Mike was responsive to our needs, quick to action feedback, and flexible when requirements evolved during the project. He took the time to understand our business, offered practical recommendations where needed, and ensured the final output aligned with both our brand and commercial objectives.

What was your primary form of communication with Mike Zak?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

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

We were looking to migrate to a Webflow website, and Mike was clearly an expert in the platform. At the same time, he also had strong experience with WordPress, which gave us confidence in his advice. He was able to objectively guide us through the pros and cons of both platforms, without pushing us toward one over the other. That impartial approach really stood out and helped us make a more informed decision based on what was right for our business.

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

Overall, the experience was very positive and it’s difficult to highlight any major areas for improvement.

Mike rebuilt my client's website (a remodeler in Vancouver) in HubSpot. The client's original CMS did not allow for customization...it was really bad. Mike rebuilt the site in HubSpot using a theme and customized it to look almost identical to the client's original website. The biggest improvement was that the client's site is now drag & drop, easy to edit, and we have the base theme on which to build future content and pages.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

• Stayed on schedule
• Built the website to our satisfaction
• Communicated clearly throughout the project

Mike was easy to contact and quick to meet. It required minimal communication and oversight to complete the project to our satisfaction.

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

I found a minor error after the website was delivered. (form fields didn't display properly on mobile) - but to be fair, I missed it too! Mike fixed it in short order. But it's important when working with any developer to check the functionality of your site on all platforms - a lesson learned on my part!

Mike Zak handled the full development of UnifiedTrack.ai, from the initial concept to the final launch. The project started with discovery meetings to understand your goals and target audience, followed by detailed research and strategy to inform the website’s design and functionality.

Mike integrated HubSpot’s analytics tools for tracking user behavior and conversions. After building and testing the site across multiple browsers and devices, he deployed the site live. Post-launch, Mike provided training on how to manage the site and offered ongoing support for any updates or issues.

The site’s responsive design and fast load times have also led to a smoother user experience across all devices, ultimately driving better conversions and supporting the company’s broader marketing goals.
