A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Please describe your organization.
My company develops and publishes consumer photo apps for the iOS platform.
What is your position?
I'm the owner, and I do the core research, product development, branding, marketing, and most of the development.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What business challenge were you trying to address with MindSea Development?
I'm a one-man company, but I hire help when needed. I first started working with MindSea after I published an app that had become very popular. The popularity upped the stakes for quality. I approached MindSea in order to maintain the app with a level of quality that I couldn't bring to it.
SOLUTION
How did you come to work with MindSea Development?
At some point, I had met another app developer that had a great app by MindSea. After talking to the MindSea team it seemed like their team brought everything that I was looking for. They had experience in the exact same market that I was in and was familiar with the technology and publishing.
Could you provide a sense of the size of this initiative?
In total, it's mid-six figures. I've been using MindSea for other work throughout the years.
What is the status of this engagement?
We've done business together since 2011.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What distinguishes MindSea Development from other providers?
MindSea Development brings the full picture to the development process. They have an understanding of the marketing factors of the business. They can go deeper in areas where I can't. They can dive deeper in the area of graphics, UI [user interface], and the level of optimization.
In hindsight, are there areas in which they could improve, or things you might do differently?
MindSea has been very flexible and brought a consistent level of quality to my work through the years. It's all been great.

A Noona software demo display is a modified Padzilla device powered by an M1 Mac Mini with an LG TVdisplay and a PQ Labs USB touch screen.
