BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

Dipal Patel, Founder, DWConsultancy. We are a growth consulting firm for tech companies & startups.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

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

We approached SoluLab for one of our clients to build a massive NFT marketplace similar to Rarible and Opensea. With NFT trading on the rise, we decided to take advantage of the opportunity by developing an NFT marketplace so customers can trade smoothly utilising cryptocurrency.

SOLUTION

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

We came across SoluLab on Clutch while searching for a Blockchain development company. We saw their portfolio and previous apps. We got impressed with their amazing service coaster and 360 support, which was totally needed for our client's project. They had developed a good number of web apps previously and had hands-on experience working with several technologies and well-known firms in the world, which assured us of hiring them. We are very sure that we made the right choice.

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

They developed a mockup of how the app would seem once completed. They then created a prototype for it. The prototype was thoroughly examined, and any adjustments we made were promptly documented. After finalising the prototype, their team turned it into a fully working NFT-based app.

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

1 project manager, 1 business analyst, 1 quality assurance expert (QA), 2 backend engineers, 2 frontend engineers, 2 blockchain engineers and 1 account manager make up the exceptionally skilled team.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The app functioned without any glitches, and the SoluLab crew implemented many high-tech features such as decentralisation, smart contracts, and tokenisation functionality for seamless NFT creation and trading. These features attracted a vast number of users after going live.

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

We communicated with the project manager via Skype, which was efficient and structured. When we were in the intense beta phase, they used the kanban strategy and project management tools like Jira for detailing every item on the site and would update it in real-time using different colours so that we could be on the same page. Nowadays, these types of methodology and execution are rarely seen.

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

SoluLab has been an invaluable partner to us. They've walked us through the process, and the staff has been proactive, which is critical for a firm like ours. As newcomers to the blockchain realm, we appreciate that they approach the project from our point of view. They considered what we didn't know and our problems regarding the project, so they helped us understand all the intricacies. This impressed us the most about SoluLab.

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

We encountered no issues. We look forward to working with them in the future.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm a co-founder of the SaaS products co building a NFT collection product that uses DeFi and Web3.0 as it's foundation.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

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

We were not looking for one specific task to be done. We hired SoluLab for several different tasks. For this project, our existing platform was designed our web 2.0 and we were looking for DeFi wallet integration and many more customizations.

SOLUTION

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

We have worked with SoluLab before for few other blockchain specific projects. Obviously, we had a great experience earlier due to which we gave no second thought other than SoluLab in selecting our vendor.

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

Among all the requirements that we had, our major requirement was the DeFi platform that we needed for token management. The design is very minimalistic. Thus, giving a very user-friendly experience. We have also added some new features to our existing platform. Also, the blockchain experts have prepared smart contracts for us.

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

We had about 3 Full-stack blockchain devs involved.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We were able to host the website successfully. The whole project, despite so many things to be done, went smoothly. It was a completely hassle-free experience. We got delayed but that was due to complexity involved.

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

The team worked in coordination. We had to stand up calls on a daily basis to discuss the upgrades, improvements and progress. The team at SoluLab is very flexible to work with.

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

Since we have worked before, we knew how great they are at their job. The team at SoluLab go the extra mile to provide client satisfaction and meet up to their expectations.

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

The project is still in the process. So far, we have not felt the need for any sort of improvement. They can strengthen up their design team a bit. But that's really subjective.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO of Y Coin, a cryptocurrency focused on democratic governance. We have a mobile application under development and are based in London.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with SoluLab?

We were trying to develop a cryptocurrency wallet application with governance. SoluLab said they could deliver this, so we engaged with them.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We initially filled out the form on their website and received a message a couple of days later; they wanted to get on a call to discuss the specifications. After a brief call, they gave us the price, and once we agreed on the project cost, we signed the contract. A couple of weeks later, we started development.

We stated on the contract that they’d deliver mobile and web apps for desktop use with governance and earning features. The tech stack would be Node.js, React.js, ER20, Three.js, and React Native.

What is the team composition?

We had 12 people working on the project, including a product manager that was replaced. We also collaborated with another manager and several other team members.

How did you come to work with SoluLab?

We found them on Clutch. We wanted someone experienced with Blockchain mobile and web application development. After looking through the options and reviews, we chose them.

How much have you invested with them?

We made a few minor additions after signing the scope, which increased the project cost from $55,000 to $57,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from July 2021–March 2022. However, they haven’t delivered the products, so we currently have a legal issue with them.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

How did your relationship with the vendor evolve?

We were working on development, and there were delays. The product was scheduled for September, but they messed up on the design side and the wireframes, so it took longer. Although we were expecting delays, there were also a lot of issues with their management. The project manager left and didn’t efficiently give all the details to the new project manager. He wasn’t professional about the transition, so the whole team forgot about the desktop side of the application.

As we looked at the wireframes and designs in November, we realized there weren’t any wireframes or designs for the desktop application. When we confronted them about it, they were confused about what we were referring to. After about a week of communication, they found out what happened and apologized, promising it’d be all done when completing the application.

How did SoluLab address the challenges that arose?

January was the next expected delivery date. When January arrived, we asked about the desktop application, but they said they’d allocated the resources to the mobile app and wouldn’t do the other one. We reminded them of their contractual obligations and spoke to the manager who had interacted with us from the start. He said he’d talk to his seniors and get back to us.

After weeks of waiting, communicating, and delaying, they got back to us in March, asking for another $25,000 to complete the desktop application. Since they were at fault, they were willing to pay 50%. Nonetheless, we explained that they were obligated to do the desktop app since it was in the contract, and it was their fault entirely for forgetting it. They took another month to get back to us, but they said they were willing to do it. However, by the time they finally got back, we no longer needed the application and had already paid the total amount for the desktop and mobile versions.

It was supposed to be a 50/50 split. Half of the $57,000 was supposed to go to the mobile app and the other half to the desktop. By the end of March, we told them we wanted them to finish the mobile app and receive a refund for the uncompleted resources. They said to me that a refund wasn’t possible at that stage, even though the contract stated that we were applicable for a refund. We didn’t want to proceed with the project, so they froze our mobile application and essentially blackmailed us into accepting their terms, or they wouldn’t finish the mobile app.

Describe the impact this engagement has had on your business.

We haven’t received a single functioning product even though we’ve paid the full amount. Currently, we have a legal issue because they’re breaching multiple terms of the contract.

This greatly impacted our business because we had a community on standby waiting for the applications in December. Due to their mishandling of resources and lack of professionalism, they delayed the project multiple times. We expected the first delay because some things weren’t correctly done. However, we expected it to be done by December, and it wasn’t. They postponed it to January, didn’t deliver, and said the final date would be February.

When February arrived, they said they needed another month to be 100% done. However, they froze the mobile development due to the missing desktop work. Since we’re a cryptocurrency community, all these delays have caused many communities to sell. We’ve already spent on financial planning, advertising, resources, and so on. We’ve had to reschedule and cancel our ad plans, which has had a significant negative economic impact on us.

How was project management handled?

They did very poorly. The developers were polite, but the management was disgraceful. When the previous manager passed the project on to the new one, he didn’t pass over all the details. When we confronted him about this, they argued with us for months, saying they wouldn’t do the desktop side. Any professional firm would agree with us because it was in the contract terms.

When they finally agreed, they decided to freeze the work on the mobile application, although we’d paid them the total amount. We essentially paid for nothing; we haven’t received any work. 

Once this happened, getting in contact with SoluLab became extremely difficult. They didn’t use proper grammar and were very informal in our email exchange. Moreover, they were reluctant to reach any sort of agreement, even though we’ve been lenient on the terms of the refund. They’re strict and unwilling to do a refund, persisting in delivering the desktop side even if we no longer require it. We’re entitled to a refund, so they’re breaching the contract.

Is there anything that the vendor did well or that you would consider a strength?

The design was decent, but the initial design was terrible. We spent hours and hours on calls until they finally got it right.

In what specific areas can they improve?

They need to improve on internal communication and transparency. The development was slow and unproductive, their management was terrible, and their smart contract didn’t deploy correctly. They signed it, but they didn’t agree to the terms, so now we’re stuck here with a breached contract.

Also, communication was informal. Each person on the team had a different idea of what the final product would be, and they didn’t have a clue about the desktop application. All in all, it was a terrible experience.

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

I’d advise anyone looking at SoluLab to go to a similarly-priced firm in that category. SoluLab isn’t experienced, and you should definitely avoid their customer service.

Company Responses

The service provider responded on July 1st, 2022. 

We educated client about the mobile-first approach to keep an informational landing page and have Android and iOS mobile app links to download apps. We showed him top 5 crypto wallets using the same mobile-first strategy. When the client didn't agree with this, we accommodated his request to build a fully functional webapp. At that point, the client asked for a refund and walked out without completing the contract. We are still willing to complete the full project as per scope. It's unfortunate to see this outcome. 

We agree there was a delay in meeting the timeline but due to COVID19, several of our developers had to take medical leave and there were few instances where we were waiting for weeks for client feedback on designs and other dependencies to move forward with the development. 

Youssof - If you are reading this, let's make this work together. We still believe in this project and can deliver the quality mobile and web app that you are looking for.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am Chris Mills, CEO of NFTY, a company that develops crypto tokens, and built-up pools to stake in for gaining rewards.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

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

We hired SoluLab for developing a decentralized staking platform for the purpose of launching our token. In addition to this, our goal is to create an NFT platform which is already under discussion.

SOLUTION

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

We selected SoluLab as our vendor for this project because of their fantastic reviews online from the previously satisfied clients. We personally had a chat with SoluLab’s previous clients and gauged their capability.

We were also told by SoluLab’s previous clients that they have some of the best developers in their team. Moreover, their online presence as the premium blockchain development company was a key factor in deciding to select SoluLab as our vendor.

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

The team of SoluLab and NFTY worked closely to appropriately define the scope of the project and then lay out the action plan accordingly. This, in turn, gave us a very clear idea about the progress of work, deadlines for each of the steps, and the expected results.

The first step of the project was the discovery phase which included feature listing, developing wireframes, and creating user stories. The next step was creating the design which was done with a software known as Figma, a graphics editor and prototyping tool.

This was followed by the architecture setup, integration of design, development of smart contracts, and integration of API by using React Javascript. Finally quality analysis was done before the production deployment by using Kubernetes to run Continuous Integration or Continuous Delivery (CICD) pipelines.

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

SoluLab assigned us a special team of 11 adequately trained, highly skilled, and vastly experienced members consisting of 1 Project Manager, 1 Business Analyst, 1 Designer, 2 Backend Developers, 2 Frontend Developers, 2 Blockchain Developers, 1 Quality Analyst, and 1 DevOps Developer.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The decentralized staking platform was successfully built and it went live on the scheduled date with full functionality. But the development of the NFT platform is still ongoing which I hope will be another great success in a few weeks’ time.

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

The workflow between the teams was just fantastic. Throughout the project, there was not even a bit of communication gap and all was always clear. With the continuous interaction of both the teams, it was never understood that the teams sat in different countries.

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

The most impressive things about SoluLab was their superb planning and timely execution of plans. The entire work was planned very well by SoluLab’s team and all issues that came up were addressed timely which is why we were a hundred percent satisfied.

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

Currently, we are very happy with the team and their commitment to deliver things on time so far no such areas we can think off.

Over the years, and SoluLab as development partners, we have seen the best ROI on all the collaboration. Be it advance blockchain development projects or complex back-end for asset trading platforms, they have best development practices and clear line communication so clients always stay in the loop with all communication that takes place.

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

Headquarter being in India, we never felt any communication gap leading to mismanagement of any project. With clear communication channels between them and the client, they act as a development team seated in the same building in the side room.

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

Along with in-depth knowledge of advanced and latest technologies, project management is the most impressive part. Also, they work with the client to create solutions that are both technically and financially feasible. They deliver on time and within budget, with the best backend and frontend solutions and the greatest ROI.

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