The team designed and implemented API endpoints, added unit tests, and provided DevOps support on Google Cloud Platform. **Review Rating**: 1.0 - Quality: 1.5 - Schedule: 1.0 - Cost: 1.0 - Willing to Refer: 1.0 **The Reviewer** Founder, ataraxy - Industry: Other industries - Client size: 1-10 Employees - Review Type: Online Review - Verified **The Review** — Oct 9, 2025 **Feedback Summary**: ZirconTech's work was incomplete and required major rework, resulting in more costs and reputational risk for the client. While their GCP DevOps engineer was responsive and reliable, the team's overall project management was poor, and they breached trust by contacting the client's customer directly. ""We did not find anything impressive or unique about the company."" **BACKGROUND** Please describe your company and position.I am the Founder of ataraxyDescribe what your company does in a single sentence.Ataraxy is a digital product agency that builds and scales market-ready software, AI, and hardware solutions for clients across industries. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** What specific goals or objectives did you hire ZirconTech to accomplish?We hired ZirconTech to deliver backend/API development in Java, with the goal of producing maintainable, well-structured, and professionally tested code that could be integrated into a client project without causing rework **SOLUTION** How did you find ZirconTech?Online SearchClutch SiteWhy did you select ZirconTech over others?High ratingsClose to my geographic locationHow many teammates from ZirconTech were assigned to this project?2-5 EmployeesDescribe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.The scope of work included backend/API development in Java and DevOps support on Google Cloud Platform. ZirconTech was responsible for designing and implementing API endpoints, following proper code conventions, adding unit tests, logging, and error handling, and ensuring the codebase was production-ready. In addition, we contracted a GCP DevOps engineer from their team to handle infrastructure setup, deployment pipelines, and cloud resource configuration. Key deliverables were: (1) properly structured and documented API endpoints aligned with specifications, (2) tested and maintainable backend modules, (3) DevOps support for CI/CD and cloud infrastructure, and (4) documentation for both code and deployment processes. **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?The only partial success in this engagement was the GCP DevOps engineer, who supported our cloud infrastructure and CI/CD needs appropriately. However, the backend/API development was not successful: the endpoints delivered were incomplete, lacked proper testing, logging, and error handling, and required us to redo significant portions of the work. As a result, while we saw some progress on the DevOps side, the project overall produced no measurable positive outcomes and created additional cost and reputational risk with our client.Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?Project management was poor. Items were not delivered on time, and when issues were raised, ZirconTech responded with superficial artifacts (such as Postman screenshots of 200 responses) instead of addressing the underlying quality concerns. They did not demonstrate accountability or a structured approach to delivery, and communication often deflected rather than resolved problems. When we escalated concerns about a developer’s behavior, they failed to handle the matter internally, leaving us to deal with the fallout directly. This lack of governance compounded delays, rework, and additional cost. The only exception was the GCP DevOps engineer, who was responsive and reliable within his scope.What was your primary form of communication with ZirconTech?Virtual MeetingEmail or Messaging AppWhat did you find most impressive or unique about this company?The only positive aspect was the responsiveness of the individual GCP DevOps engineer we engaged, who worked reliably within his scope. Beyond that, we did not find anything impressive or unique about the company.Are there any areas for improvement or something ZirconTech could have done differently?There are several areas for improvement. First, ZirconTech needs to deliver work that meets professional software development standards: proper code conventions, testing, logging, and error handling should be mandatory. Second, they must implement real project management practices, with accountability for timelines and deliverables, instead of deflecting with superficial artifacts. Third, they need to address personnel issues internally — when we raised concerns about a developer’s behavior, nothing was done. Finally, they must respect contractual boundaries; contacting our clients directly was a breach of trust and of our master agreement. Had these areas been handled correctly, the project outcome could have been very different. --- #### Payment System Fix for AR & 3D Solutions Company **The Project** - Services: Custom Software Development - Project size: Less than $10,000 - Project length: Nov. - Dec. 2022 **Project Summary**: ZirconTech was hired by an AR and 3D solutions company to solve a problem with their international payment system.

Partner and company representative in Latam for consulting company based in Austin Texas. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** For what projects/services did your company hire ZirconTech, and what were your goals? A network like that of Ethereum is not suitable for handling large volumes of data or storing files, therefore a feasible solution is to calculate a hash that represents this file in a plain text format that can be stored as part of a block. It is then the job of a centralized system to ensure that this hash stored on the blockchain is kept consistent with its original file. That said, we needed to implement a software product that provides the necessary functionality to solve this problem, as well as additional functionality, in such a way that it could be adaptable to multiple use cases. In addition, this project also sought to promote interest, knowledge, and practical exercise in the Blockchain world. **SOLUTION** How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

There is a high distrust in the insurance industry due to the existing conflict of interests since the profits of the companies increase if less is paid to the users or it is possible to charge them more money. Our solution allows, for this particular case, to provide transparency to the scoring calculation that is what defines the value of the policy. We used Hyperledger Fabric as a Blockchain platform and the following chaincodes were developed: Information tracking (to track vehicle information and store it in the blockchain), Scoring (calculation of scoring from information received from vehicles) As part of the project, two APIs, three SPAs and one mobile application were developed. The stack used was the following: APIs: Java, Spring (spring boot, spring mvc, spring data jpa, spring data cache, spring job), MySQL, Maven SPAs: ClojureScript, Reframe, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Bootstrap Mobile App (Android): Java  ### Component for Hyperleder Burrow interaction Development of the Vent component of the Bosmarmot open source project. Bosmarmot is a set of tools developed by Monax for use with Hyperledger Burrow (Hyperledger Burrow provides a modular Blockchain client with a partially authorized smart contract interpreter, developed according to the specification of the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)). What the Vent component does is interact with Burrow gRPC obtaining blocks, transactions and events generated from smart contracts implemented in Solidity, unpacking and decoding them to store in legible form in sql tables created on the fly. ### Electronic Bill of Ladings using blockchain Global Share is a company dedicated to the continuous improvement of business processes, providing innovative solutions to companies to add up value and competitive advantage by improving their processes productivity. This week announced a major milestone in Global Share/edoxOnline history, the brand new development for the preparation, issuance, signing, transmission, negotiation and presentation of the electronic Bill of Lading (e-BL). Zircon Tech has been a key partner implementing blockchain technology in the solution architecture. ### NFT Marketplace The client needed an attractive marketplace and at the same time a cost-effective, secure, and scalable way to prove digital and physical asset authenticity and ownership by brands and customers that require a high degree of trust. ZirconTech formed the core team that developed the different parts of the platform. Hedera Token Service (HTS) was used to strengthen the trust between brands, customers, and marketplace participants. The system guarantees scalability to millions of users through a backend infrastructure built in AWS ecosystem running NodeJs (NestJs) backed up by a MongoDB data layer. Quality aspects were ensured through unit and integration tests as well as interface tests with Cypress Lastly, the frontend was developed using React.js first and then Svelte.js. We were using Svelte and SvelteKit working in pairs with a design team to power the use of a custom UI library and a defined set of development guidelines.   ### Link-in-bio landing page The music industry is becoming more competitive and it is difficult, mainly for independent artists, to create and maintain a place where they can have up-to-date information about their music and social networks. Added to this is the impossibility of publishing more than one link on some social networks (eg Instagram) which makes it necessary to have a single URL with which you can access all the information about each artist. We designed and developed a mobile application (Android and iOS) that works as a CMS (Content Management Service) that allows artists to unify all the information from streaming platforms and social networks in a single link. The application was developed using React Native with a backend in Node.JS. All the infrastructure is in Amazon Web Services. It also has an integration with Google analytics that allows obtaining information about the engagement generated. Both the backoffice and the web page that is generated from the CMS were developed in React.JS   ### ProvaGrad diploma notarization with blockchain Blockchain application that will be used by universities to notarize diplomas and transcripts.

Smartcontract using EOS blockchain. ### Industry Recognitions - Top 10 Mobile App Dev Agencies in Buenos Aires 202 - Top Ecommerce Development Companies & Ecom Dev ## Packages ## Locations (3) ### New York, NY (Headquarters) - 1325 Avenue of the Americas - New York, NY 10019 - United States - 2 - 5 employees - Phone: +(1) 347 571 9089 ### Montevideo, Uruguay - 8 de Octubre - Montevideo 2956 - Uruguay - 6 - 9 employees ### Montevideo, Uruguay - Bulevar España 2253 - Montevideo 11200 - Uruguay - 6 - 9 employees - Phone: +(598) 9831-2859 ## Contact ZirconTech [Send a message](https://clutch.co/profile/zircontech) ### Connect on Social - [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/zircontech) - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/wearezircontech) - [X](https://twitter.com/zircon_tech) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/zircon.tech/)
