SysGears

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

The Carveco™ software range is the trusted CAD modelling and CNC machining solution to a multitude of industries worldwide.

The easy-to-use, yet immensely powerful, tools included in Carveco software give sign-makers, woodworkers, engravers, jewellers (and countless other creatives) the freedom to design and manufacture high-quality 2D or 3D products from their artwork, faster than they’d ever thought possible.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with SysGears?

Carveco wanted a portal platform as a unifying application, connecting a variety of business specific software services, enabling the delivery of digital services world-wide.

The aim of creating a singular portal was to enabling sales partners, machine tool vendors and customers to be able to transact with Carveco and communicate on technical matters. It would also allow them to administer and manage their users and software licences.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Sysgears have been involved since the inception of the project, and have provided business analyst services, as well as development and QA services.

What is the team composition?

There are two teams doing concurrent development work, led by a business analyst providing connection and management between the two teams.

How did you come to work with SysGears?

Initial connection was via an online marketplace.

What is the status of this engagement?

The project has delivered 2 of (at least) 5 stages, and our work is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We would not want to demonstrate anything publicly as this service does give us a commercial advantage.

How did SysGears perform from a project management standpoint?

Absolutely wonderfully.

What did you find most impressive about them?

The team has eveovled to understand our business workflows, meaning that they are able to provide business solutions and the move to coding them, with minimal additional input from our team.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I feel the team has worked wonderfully and communicated flawlessly throughout the entire project.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with SysGears?

We looked to SysGears to act as an extension of our QA team.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

SysGears provides us only one type of service at the moment, and it is QA engineering. They support our internal portal that allows our customers to perform basic functions and view analytics as well as enables our staff to remotely monitor and control our devices. 

What is the team composition?

We’re working with one QA engineer from SysGears. 

How did you come to work with SysGears?

We interviewed quite a few people but the person provided by SysGears was the one we liked best. We’ve never regretted the choice of working with them.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve invested around $30,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

The partnership began in January 2021 and it’s ongoing. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

I can’t impart any sort of numeric metrics, but overall, we’ve been satisfied with the quality of their work. When one of our engineers in the US was temporarily unavailable, the person SysGears provided stepped in and took over the workload. We appreciate their flexibility. 

How did SysGears perform from a project management standpoint?

We typically communicate through Slack and Google Meet. We have stand-up meetings three times a week and an all-hands meeting twice a week. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

What we like about SysGears is their ability to provide really good engineers. When we were considering expanding the team, we sought their recommendations for a second engineer, and they were able to provide that within a day or two. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, we don’t have a problem with their work. It’s a dynamic relationship and they’re receptive to our guidance and mentoring.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

There are two types of engagements. The first type is when you give a clear spectrum of work to an agency and they come back to you with a finished product. The second type, however, involves treating the agency as your own team. SysGears is perfect for the second type. You can communicate, monitor, and guide them on a daily basis to get the most benefits out of their work.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

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

Our flagship product KS-DSE had been built out as a proof of concept. We needed an experienced team to help push our front end interface to a new level. SysGears helped us do just that.

SOLUTION

We reviewed several candidate companies and after a few video conferences and discussions, we selected SysGears. Their knowledge of the technology platform we were developing towards was the key factor in our decision to higher them.

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

The developer I worked closely with was very knowledgeable with the technology we were deploying and was able to get up to speed quickly.

We worked daily to fine tune the interface and on many occasions he was able to read ahead into what I was specifically asking for. I had very little changes that I needed to be done since he listened closely to what I was asking for and executed flawlessly.

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

Their knowledge of the technology was the most impressive. They were able to offer suggestions and implementations that we were not aware of due to their experience.

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

I can honestly say I do not feel I can offer any suggestions. They provided the exact services we were looking for.

After creating those detailed mockups, we started with an initial feature set for coding; we used JavaScript and React for the frontend, Scala for the backend, and Amazon Docker for hosting. The platform is an on-demand service for software dev that allows freelancers to swarm build coding projects. We’re currently in beta testing.

What is the team composition?

We had four full-time developers and a project manager.
