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

We operated over a dozen different websites, almost all of which were subject to hacking and were compromised. Stalwart came to our rescue with more than just comforting words. The typical experience of having to ride consultants and push them to get things done was exactly the opposite with Stalwart— they pushed us! They took initiative and demonstrated a high degree of both expertise and motivation. They didn’t need hand-holding or babysitting. They got to work immediately and cranked through a mountain of tasks efficiently and expertly, keeping us informed and engaged the entire time. Hiring new contractors is always a bit of a nerve-wracking exercise, but Stalwart instantly put any fears or concerns we had to rest. They have gone from being a one-time contractor to being our genuine “Go-To” for anything and everything web or internet related. They are highly competent, motivated, trustworthy, and most importantly— THEY DO EXACTLY WHAT THEY SAY! A very precious commodity in today’s world.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

All compromised websites repaired and secured. New sites deployed from scratch. Invaluable consultation on technical issues and marketing.

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

While competent at their core services, this is what sets Stalwart apart from most others. They actually DO what they SAY, and even exceed expectations. Communication is constant and thorough. Their actions are meticulously documented (seriously, it’s overkill, but welcome). There is never the slightest sense of project creep or delay. If anything, it almost seems *too* quick sometimes— like “Really?! You did that already?” Very impressive.

What was your primary form of communication with Stalwart Info?

Email or Messaging App

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

Value for money is off the charts with these guys. They are a Unicorn amongst a herd of Donkeys. As much as I hate to say it, they should be charging considerably more than they do. I can’t remember the last time we got such a bargain for something so good. It’s like buying a Kia only to discover it’s really a Maybach.

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

We’d have to think very hard to come up with anything Stalwart could improve upon. I’m sure there are some, but they would be trivial and barely worth mention.

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

we had written chats thru Skype, so we could review whatever was explained. Whenever sth was more complicated, we had screenshots and or video recordings, which helped the communication very much. There was a delay, but nothing that impacted my business. Besides, we found some setbacks to manage along the way

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

they overcame the setbacks of the project. One relied on the other, even being from different countries.

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

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

SOLUTION

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

We searched online for app developers in our area and shortlisted 5. After interviewing them, we chose this vendor based on their past projects, design skills, and cost estimate.311

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

We had a kick-off meeting to discuss our goals and objectives. From there, the team delivered mock-ups and wireframes for our site.

After a few iterations, their team designed and developed to reflect our company's services and created a landing page with a contact form.

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

a project manager was our main point of contact throughout the process. There were also 2 full-stack developers and a designer working behind the scenes.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

After launching our site, we saw a 70% increase in traffic, and our incoming leads doubled month over a month thanks to the landing page. Clients love the updated design, and they now have a better understanding of our services.

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

We had daily stand-ups with their project manager, who communicated with the rest of them. If there were any delays, they let us know ahead of time so that we could prepare.

We used to stack, Jira, and GitHub to coordinate, and they worked well with our team.

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

They gave us a professional site that's easy to update. My team had never worked with WordPress before, so they took the time to teach us how to update the content ourselves.

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

When we first launched, there were some minor bugs on the contact form. We let them know, and they were quick to fix issues.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the founder of Tempshifts, a web-based staffing agency for immediate personnel needs for hotels, restaurants, and retail stores.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Stalwart Info?

I needed help developing a site where B2C businesses can post immediate and short-term staffing needs, and workers in the community can pick up those shifts. 

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Stalwart Info purchased a basic WordPress marketplace site and used that to develop a new website. This involved a lot of coding on the backside; they worked on the WordPress and Laravel code to modify the site to my needs. Additionally, they handled the site’s colors, layout, font, and everything that changed within the site. They also created landing pages, blog posts, and payment options.

We had a mutual, back-and-forth discovery process. I discussed with Stalwart Info how I wanted the platform to work, and they came up with ideas on how it could work better. In the first few meetings, they ran with what I needed to get done with the site. 

They have already completed the project, but it’s still under warranty. However, because I’m not a technical person, I will more than likely continue the relationship with Stalwart Info when I have changes to implement on the site. Since they developed and knew the system inside and out, I will use them for any improvements in the future. 

What is the team composition?

Kamdar (CEO) was the only person I worked with throughout the process. However, I know that he had other people working on the site because I had to create log-in accounts for several people. 

How did you come to work with Stalwart Info?

I placed an ad on a WordPress development site, and about 12 people replied. I narrowed them down to three, and out of the three, two had responded to set up a meeting to talk further. 

Although the two shortlisted vendors had similar pricing, I liked Kamdar's background based on what I saw on LinkedIn — he worked in development and came up through the ranks before starting his own company. We had a very similar vibe and background, so I liked that. I felt comfortable with him and thought that he was honest. 

How much have you invested with them?

I had spent $3,200.

What is the status of this engagement?

Our partnership lasted from April–June 2021.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The site was well laid out, and it received many positive comments about its setup and design. It worked properly. 

How did Stalwart Info perform from a project management standpoint?

Stalwart Info was good at project management, and they were quick to respond. Although things took a few extra days, I was informed about it. They communicated all the way through and definitely exceeded my expectations.

We did conference calls early on. However, I had a difficult time because whenever we spoke, I wasn’t in a quiet office — I’m probably driving to and from work. The easiest way we found to communicate was through Skype and email. Additionally, we used Lightbox to take screenshots of what the site was doing. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

They worked and accomplished tasks quickly; they were able to meet my deadline. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

I would like to know more about what they were changing and how they did it, so I could do it myself in the future. That said, I also know teaching coding to someone who doesn't know code can be a very laborious problem. Kamdar still explained a lot of what they’re doing and taught me how to fix issues.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Have a thorough description of exactly what you want to be done and completed. I wasn't detailed enough in my descriptions because I didn't know how to do it and what to expect. As such, we had a couple of unnecessary back and forth about certain functionalities. If I had completed a process diagram, the engagement would have been a lot easier.
