We wanted to provide easy access for customers to buy our stickers by building an app for iOS and Android.

How did you come to work with SitePen?
I’ve known SitePen for a long time because I’ve worked on additional projects with them. I liked that they were organized, creative, and talented.

How much have you invested with them?
We spent about $100,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We worked from January–April 2021.

SitePen provided web development and app design services for an early-stage software startup. Their main tasks were to design and develop a marketing website and to do a visual refresh of the firm’s app.
End users and internal stakeholders were impressed with the design that SitePen implemented, and they gave positive feedback to the website and app's design. The team was highly adaptable and collaborative throughout the project, providing suggestions that made the results even better than expected.
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the CEO of an early-stage startup composed of three people. We’re a software firm creating a platform that allows companies to collaborate more efficiently while building their own software products.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with SitePen?
We needed some help accelerating some design and development work. After building our application, we needed to develop a modern, marketing-driven website with a nice design. We also needed some design improvements for the application itself.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
The engagement was a mixture of design for both our application and marketing site for the business. SitePen did a visual refresh for our application, suggesting changes to colors, fonts, layouts, positioning, and behavior of certain UI elements.
We also had a stream of questions that they answered inside a shared Sigma document, showing us the design decisions they made. This gave us a foundational framework for further designs beyond the project.
SitePen also did the development of the website, and they used technologies that I approved and reviewed with them. We used Dojo, which is a modern typescript framework. It creates what’s known as a statically optimized site, so it’s efficient and easy to maintain. It was the technology that we were mutually familiar with, so it was a good fit for this collaboration.
What is the team composition?
We worked with Alyssa (Technical Project Manager) as well as a number of engineers. We also worked with their management team.
How did you come to work with SitePen?
I’ve known them for a long time, and since I’ve worked with them in the past, it was a logical choice to hire them. I knew they were great at creating designs that were reasonable to implement, and their outputs weren’t the same as what everyone else’s applications or websites looked like.
I could trust them to finish the task without having to check in every day to tell them if they were doing something wrong. I knew they’d quickly understand what I needed, so I hired them.
How much have you invested with them?
We invested around $50,000 on this project. It was a relatively small investment, but it was enough to get the work done.
What is the status of this engagement?
We worked with them from July–August 2020. That was when the bulk of the engagement happened, and we’ve done some small things afterward.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
In general, people love the designs that they see, and we get a lot of positive feedback about the website and the design of the application. We know that SitePen played a big part in that.
How did SitePen perform from a project management standpoint?
SitePen was pretty flexible in adapting to our needs and being available as needed. Our typical choices for communication tools were our product and Slack. Then, we used our source code repository to track all changes.
What did you find most impressive about them?
SitePen gave us what we expected and did it very efficiently and with quality. They took our ideas and came back with something better than we’d imagined. They didn’t only do exactly what we requested but also gently suggested better things for the project.
If we disagreed with them, they understood and accepted that and did what we asked. However, their opinions were appreciated most of the time. They didn’t just blindly give us what we wanted, especially if they knew it wasn’t the best idea. They were pretty adaptable, and they bent where they needed to bend, so the engagement was pretty smooth and harmonious.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, there aren’t any. Nothing comes to mind. In general, every project is different and challenging, but this one was relatively easy. As a result, I didn’t really see anything that might give me any concern or alarm.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Knowing what you want to be done will help you accomplish the project faster than if you only have random ideas that you haven’t thought through. SitePen can meet your needs in either of those situations. If you don’t know what you want, they can provide business analysis services. However, if you pretty much know what you need, they can skip the analysis and start working with what you have.
You must know where you’re at and where they can realistically meet your needs. If you think you know everything, then you won’t get the results you want because you won’t take the time to truly figure out what you need from SitePen.
