TekRevol

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the creator and owner of Save A Spot, a parking reservation company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with TekRevol?

I needed someone to develop my application for me.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

TekRevol is developing my mobile app and connecting it with other devices using Bluetooth. Initially, they laid the project down on a defined schedule to address the scope step by step. We’ve been following that plan; every time I approve a deliverable, we move forward with the next step.

Among its core features, our app integrates with a map so that users can see where available parking spots are. If users are near the parking lot they identify, they can reserve a parking spot before they get there so that they don’t waste time looking for one. Once they get to the spot, they can check in on their arrival and park there as long as they need.

Currently, we’re working on a device prototype internally, while TekRevol is working on the app’s backend development. Once we finish the prototype, we’ll send it to their team. Although this app hasn’t been launched yet, it’ll be available for iOS and Android.

What is the team composition?

We work with four people from TekRevol, including Hassan (Project Manager).

How did you come to work with TekRevol?

I found them on Google and liked their reviews. I saw that they had an office in Miami, and I’m also in Florida, so they were very close to me.

How much have you invested with them?

The app will cost around $40,000 in total.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together around October 2022, and our engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

So far, we haven’t experienced any issues or bugs with TekRevol’s deliverables. Moreover, I’m very pleased with how responsive they are; whenever I ask for changes, they make them immediately.

How did TekRevol perform from a project management standpoint?

TekRevol has met every deadline and is very attentive to my needs. Although they have offices near us, our collaboration has been virtual. We have a weekly meeting with them via Zoom, and we use Asana for project management. We also use email and communicate with Hassan via WhatsApp if needed.

What did you find most impressive about them?

TekRevol understood our project very well from the beginning, and so far, they’ve shown that they can keep their promises through their work.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I don’t think so.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Give them an opportunity, ask for a quote, and see if you like them.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO and founder of Agent Monitoring, a remote BAC tracking company for cities, government officials, and anyone that needs our third-party supervising their clients.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with TekRevol?

We were looking for a company that could develop a mobile app for us. I’ve worked with other app development companies before, but it always seemed like the transparency wasn’t there. I was promised a lot by other companies, and they always fell short. I wanted to find a company that would let me know everything that was going on at the time that it was happening.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

I hired TekRevol to handle the front- and backend development of a mobile application for iOS and Android. They’re also working on our web portal, and we’re really close to finalizing everything.

What is the team composition?

I’ve worked with five people from TekRevol, including a frontend developer, a backend developer, a project manager, and a tester.

How did you come to work with TekRevol?

My COO found TekRevol through online research. During our interview with TekRevol, I really felt like they were going to be a company that could deliver on my vision and dreams for my company.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent around $60,000 on this project so far.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in June 2022, and the engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We’re definitely getting what we’re paying for. Our team members have been really astounded by the app’s aesthetically-pleasing design and ease of use compared to our competitors. 

How did TekRevol perform from a project management standpoint?

TekRevol has performed well in terms of project management. They’re incredibly transparent. Whenever they encounter any problems or a bump in the road, they always let us know.

We use Asana for project management. I speak to their project manager on a daily basis through text messaging.

What did you find most impressive about them?

TekRevol’s transparency, professionalism, and attention to detail blow me away. They hire the best developers, and their performance is like night and day compared with the other app developers I’ve worked with in the past.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, they’ve met my expectations.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Make sure to trust the process and your team. Being burned by past app developers, it was really hard for me to trust again. But TekRevol has definitely proven themselves to be a trustworthy, reliable company that’s incredibly great to work with.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the founder and creator of My Medical Planner, an application that will streamline and bridge the gap between chronic illness patients and doctors.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with TekRevol?

I needed a developer to develop my app.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

TekRevol is helping me create a very complex and detailed mobile app with a lot of different features. Initially, I provided them with some drawings, sketches, and notes about what I wanted. Then, their team put together a plan to follow in a collaborative effort.

We’ve already finished the design phase, and we’ll go into the alpha and beta testing phases next before launching it. This app will be available for Android and iOS devices. Once launched, TekRevol will provide me with maintenance and hosting services.

One of our app’s most important features is the clipboard feature. When a patient is in the hospital or incapacitated in some way, their caregivers are able to communicate through one digital clipboard. On it, they can take doctor’s notes and see lab results and other results of tests done on the patient. This clipboard will keep everything in one place so that family members can keep abreast of the patient’s condition.

How did you come to work with TekRevol?

TekRevol contacted me when I was looking for new developers; I wasn’t happy with the quotes I had already been given.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ll spend $90,000 in total on this project.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in March 2022, and our engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

TekRevol has taken my ideas and turned them into features on my app; it has been very exciting to see my creations become real software solutions. Some of the most important features of my app haven’t been done before in the app world. Still, TekRevol has successfully developed them completely from scratch.

How did TekRevol perform from a project management standpoint?

TekRevol has performed very well. The process has been perfectly streamlined, and their team is in constant contact with us. We’ve had a lot of setbacks due to personal reasons on my end; still, TekRevol has been very caring and compassionate about my current situation. They’ve paused the project when I’ve asked for it and restarted it when the time has been better. They use Asana for project management.

What did you find most impressive about them?

TekRevol's ability to take my drawings and ideas and bring them to life is impressive. I knew what I wanted, but it was hard for me to explain it. Still, they’ve been able to capture my thoughts exactly the way I wanted them. They’re very creative.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No. Everything has gone as expected.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Don’t hold back on your ideas. TekRevol can take them and bring them to life.

We brought on TekRevol for mobile application development. 

SOLUTION

What is the team composition?

We work with two project managers, who serve as our primary contacts.

We looked into several companies we found online but found that TekRevol was the most professional. They were the best choice for the work we wanted to do.

We’re in the alpha phase, so we’ll soon begin testing. In about a week, we’ll be able to see what works and what doesn’t. The screens we’ve seen so far are up to our standards. 

How did TekRevol perform from a project management standpoint?

Their team uses Asana to manage the project, which helps us understand where we are in the development process. We’ve had weekly meetings with them where they go over development updates. We’ve set our project timeline to end around December 2022, but we might actually be ready to go live as early as October 2022. 

Whenever we want to explore new avenues, they’ve been open to doing so without any additional cost. Their team is very easygoing. TekRevol’s team has been very approachable and communicative through Google Meet and Zoom. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their strength lies in their professionalism, communication, and continuous follow-up. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

We’ve had some connectivity issues, but that isn’t their fault. However, I would appreciate that being fixed. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Customers should follow TekRevol’s directions and ask as many questions as needed. Don’t be afraid to ask questions that may seem silly because TekRevol is always able to answer them. TekRevol will assist customers in any way they can.

They found and approached us. I started by asking them to look and give us feedback and if they could work on this project or not.

I decided to work with them because I saw they were knowledgeable and knew exactly what they were doing. We did a one-month trial with them, and it was great, so we continued with the process.

How much have you invested with them?

We've spent $10,000–$15,000 with them so far.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in January 2022. and the engagement is ongoing.

We hired TekRevol to put together what we had designed and developed over the past 30 years, including our work with our partners and all the training and consulting we had with businesses. Our goal was to create something that consumers would be able to understand and have fun with.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

TekRevol has built an Android and iOS app for us. Instead of our customers searching around and finding seminars on how to start a business, we’ve incorporated a step-by-step system on the app to help customers create their business. They also provide app store optimization and marketing services. Overall, their work involves design, development, and consulting.

I listed approximately 10 different companies I found on Google and I chose TekRevol because they were extremely responsive and genuinely excited about the concept of our app.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We haven’t completely launched yet, but we’ve been able to do a soft launch to less than 1,000 users. In connection with that, the feedback we’ve received has been positive. Users love our content, design, and the concept of how everything has been placed. 

We also like that we haven’t experienced any bugs or crashes, and we’ve only encountered minimal things such as password reset and spinning for a little extra time. We plan to continue working with them for a long time. In fact, we want them to manage all of our customer communications.

How did TekRevol perform from a project management standpoint?

TekRevol has handled everything very well, and they’re quick to fix things. They also have great communication skills.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the president of a platform that makes collaborating and publishing social media content easier for small businesses. The platform is still in development. I have another business called Ranch Office, a co-working space company. 

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with TekRevol?

I needed a contract development partner that could bring our concept to reality, so I hired TekRevol. 

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

TekRevol is currently developing our platform. Specifically, they’re building it as a native iOS platform. The team is using a certain design and wireframing tool to finish the designs and transfer them over to development. While we’re starting with the iOS platform, we’re also planning to make the product a web platform. 

In terms of key features, our app serves as a social media scheduler and publisher that’s focused on capturing and publishing content. It’s designed to make capturing media and collaborating easier for small business teams. 

What is the team composition?

I work with a dedicated team in terms of the sales process. The team works on the scope of the project and ensures the engagement is lined up. They’re a key stakeholder in managing the project and our communication. We also work with the development team. 

How did you come to work with TekRevol?

I needed a partner that was easy to work with and could do the job in a professional manner. With that in mind, I researched local developers because I wanted to have an in-person connection with the team. I looked for teams in Houston — I’m a champion of local businesses — as I tried to put Houston on the map in terms of industries. 

Eventually, I found TekRevol online. I reach out to them, and they took a detailed approach in inquiring about the project and my requirements. They immediately understood what we wanted and offered ideas. It was clear to me that they were the right team for this project, and they were unlike other firms that would just sit there and say okay to get my business. As a result, after interviewing several firms, we decided that TekRevol was the right partner. 

How much have you invested with them?

The project cost is in the $40,000–$50,000 range. 

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in October 2021, and the engagement is ongoing.

They have a smooth process for engagement, design, and development, and everything is maintained in a punctual and professional manner. 

How did TekRevol perform from a project management standpoint?

Project management is one of their main strengths. Their management style is highly structured, especially in terms of communication and collaboration. The software they use to communicate and demonstrate their designs has been useful for me to make decisions and give feedback. In other words, there’s been a healthy level of communication between us. I never feel like I’m being deprioritized. 

In terms of tools, TekRevol uses Asana. We also use Zoom calls; we’ve used this to meet their team and get to know the stakeholders. Their resources have come over to my office before, which I also appreciate because it’s a great way to get on the same page with them. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

The TekRevol team has been pleasing and professional. Their work has been great, and there’s a level of discretion in their design team as per our guidance. Their resources have knocked the project out of the park. As a result, I’m happy that I’ve chosen them; I don’t know if I would have received the same quality from a different partner.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, there aren’t any. They’ve satisfied all of our requirements; I’ve been pleased with their work and there’s nothing I’d change. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Make yourself as available as possible. That’s the key to a successful project because the TekRevol team will need as much information as possible upfront to make the process go quicker and smoother. In our engagement, I’ve made myself extremely available to them, and that has helped them acquire the things they need to accomplish their job. They’ve made progress and never held anything up.

TekRevol is excellent at project management. We collaborate through Asana, where we can monitor tasks and communicate with each other.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I can’t think of anything. Everything has been great so far. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

They’re good communicators, and they will understand your requirements. They’re always open to suggestions and feedback. Make sure to communicate what your needs and desires are, so they can help you achieve your goals.
