"They walked the extra mile to accommodate our requirements, which in some cases were outside the ordinary."
the reviewer
the review
The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the co-owner of the company and my position is to be responsible for the technical side of the software.
For what projects/services did your company hire 9series Inc, and what were your goals?
Our original software in the field of Time and Attendance was developed more than 10 years ago in the days of Microsoft Silverlight. With Silverlight being discontinued and unsopperted by Microsoft, the goal was to rewrite this software on a new tech platform, but keeping it as close as possible to the original software to minimize the impact on users accustomed to the current version but yet enhance the look and feel.
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
This vendor was selected based on the positive experience from another big software company with whom we are associated.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
After the initial kick-off meetings they would develop a mock-up so we could evaluate the look and feel against our expectations so we could sign off on the fundamental design before actual programming would commence.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
The project manager was the main point of contact with the CEO also involved at times where necessary.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
The deliverables were clearly defined and scoped and 9Series were/are delivering accordingly.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
Regular meetings with the project manager.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
They walked the extra mile to accommodate our requirements which in some cases were outside the ordinary.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
For certain type of requirements especially the more complex ones, they could have done more detailed testing prior to handing over to us for testing.

Custom Software Development for Drone Company
"9series Inc has been extremely helpful in creating the look and feel we wanted for our system."
the reviewer
the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the technical director of CrossChecks. We have a compliance-based OS for the aviation industry — in particular for the commercial drone industry. Our OS is geared for the South African market at the moment, but we plan to expand our target market significantly in the near future.
What challenge were you trying to address with 9series Inc?
As experienced aviation operators, we recognized the gap in the emerging commercial drone market — it was an industry entirely strangled by regulation, duplication and extensive paperwork.
As a result, our vision was to create a subscription-based operating system that would take the paperwork out of the process to free up huge amounts of time and help commercial drone companies get going with what they do best. We decided to engage with 9series Inc because we had no experience in software development and were looking for a professional company to support the project.
What was the scope of their involvement?
The 9series Inc team helped us with every aspect of the development from the look and feel, to the full functionality of the system.
The custom software is completely interactive with numerous modules. All the modules talk to each other and the system is able to keep track of expiry dates of licenses, certificates, and approvals and send out alerts. Each company’s approvals and limitations are taken into account for total compliance in all operations and users are able to store all of their documents, monitor expiry dates, track their assets, plan and fly missions, select numerous reports and effectively communicate. It is intricate and complex but presented in a simple way.
The subscribers are Commercial Drone Companies and among their multiple heir users are pilots, quality managers, flight operations managers, and safety managers who all utilize the system for their different needs and requirements. The software keep operators 100% compliant all the time, which means that the system doesn’t allow users to operate outside their limitations and approvals.
Our software went live in August 2021, and 9series Inc has offered full support for a couple of months to fix up small glitches that appear in the system and make any changes. This is a system that’s going to continue to grow as we start adding modules to our platform — there’s a lot of future work involved here. We’re currently in the phase where we’re marketing, demonstrating, and training companies to use the software. Going forward, we have a monthly retainer with 9series where they’re going to manage our live site, too.
What is the team composition?
We have had teams working with us on different aspects from the production of a Functional Requirement Document to the writing of the code to the management of the live site. Our main point of contact through the development phase is Rajnikant (CEO).
How did you come to work with 9series Inc?
We were investigating development houses in SA and abroad and a colleague suggested 9series Inc. Within a few hours, 9series contacted us. We had a couple of video calls, and interviewed a few companies. We liked what we saw in 9series Inc and decided to work with them.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve spent $42,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We worked together from February 2021, and it’s ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
9series Inc has been extremely helpful in creating the look and feel we wanted for our system. The product they’ve built is exceptional and we’ve received very positive feedback from the industry. Specifically, people say they love that our system is clean, simple and very easy to use. On top of that, the system works extremely well.
As a start-up company, we are also self-funded — which means that we've placed our life savings on the line for this project. With limited finance, we were open as to how far we could go. The potential project and the platform of the OS is enormous and 9series Inc helped us to cut it down to a solid core that was manageable in our budget. They’ve done a lot of things for no charge because they’re aware of our situation — working over and above what they’ve quoted for. Overall, what they've done for us is quite a rare thing for a business to do.
How did 9series Inc perform from a project management standpoint?
The project has continued to grow in complexity during the development and they grew alongside us — we’re all involved in its growth. We use video calls, WhatsApp and email. We also use Google Sheets for shared interactive feedback.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They provide huge amounts of support to us, and they look at the project for its growth and long-term benefits rather than short-term benefits. As a new business in the operating software industry, we really appreciate that. Overall, they walked us through the project with professionalism and care.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, we're having a good run with them.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Know what you want and be very clear about your goals. Spend more time figuring things out before the development begins. We wasted a lot of time ourselves because we didn’t go into enough of the tiny details.

Web Platform Dev & Maintenance for Car Maintenance Service
"They’re flexible and bring a unique perspective to our work."
the reviewer
the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the founder and CEO of an online marketplace that facilitates connections between certified mechanics and partners. Our goal is to offer a one-stop-shop for the automotive industry, where we provide services and repairs. We aim to care for cars from the point of purchase up until they no longer need their care anymore.
What challenge were you trying to address with 9series Inc?
We needed to build out our development and engineering team but were unable to hire our own internal employees. Therefore, we decided to look for a technology company to be our tech partner.
What was the scope of their involvement?
We wanted them to look after our infrastructure as we upgrade and progress various aspects of the site. They manage, maintain, and improve upon our existing technology stack, acting as our engineering team. Currently, they’re doing this for our web app, but they’re also working on a mobile native app experience to provide a better mobile experience for users. They’re working with Python as our core programming language, and we’re hosting the platform on DigitalOcean. Whenever we run into an issue, like a bug or customer-facing problem, they make themselves available to solve those problems.
What is the team composition?
They have a competent team of engineers, an engineering manager, a QA engineer, and a business analyst. I work most closely with one of their managing directors and a tech lead. When we encounter problems, our tech lead will address them himself or delegate the work to the rest of the team. He is our point of contact for any issues, though.
How did you come to work with 9series Inc?
We were introduced to them through my co-founder, who had a positive experience with them in the past. Working with them sounded like a better option than hiring our own employees because they were able to provide many resources and services all packaged into one engagement. We knew we could contact them for a multitude of skills and talents because their team was so well-rounded. Additionally, they’d already worked on projects for Kenyan companies within our own industry, so they seemed to understand us well from the beginning.
How much have you invested with them?
So far, we’ve spent about $5,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We’ve been working with them since October 2020. As our main tech and engineering partner, we intend for them to work with us for a long time.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We had to create a brand new platform with them using different technologies after realizing that we could majorly improve our technology with them. They catered to the new vision and roadmap to meet our needs. Their coding standards are high, and the code follows all relevant security protocols.
On both the front- and backend of the system, they over-delivered in a very short time. Within two months, we had a state-of-the-art platform on the market.
How did 9series Inc perform from a project management standpoint?
They have a great team and top-notch project management skills. At the start of the project, everything was well-documented. Their analyst and project manager worked hard to make sure that we always had the proper documentation when introducing new features to the project, for example. That process made sure we captured all of our goals and requirements before sending our information to their developers.
They’re located in a different time zone, but they’ve always been able to help us when needed. Even if it’s late at night their time, they’re committed to solving our problems. We communicated through Slack.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They’re flexible and bring a unique perspective to our work. Many companies are rigid in the way they work, which wouldn’t work for us as a startup company because things are changing all the time on our end. They had perfect industry knowledge and were an ideal culture fit for us.
Are there any areas they could improve?
We would love for them to grow their team and skills further as we grow and expand on our end. It would be great to introduce even more new technologies to our platform.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
I’d recommend them as a professional, invested technology partner. We kept changing our requirements because we’re a startup, and they understood our situation without complaints. That would bother some vendors, but they were incredibly understanding and flexible.

In addition to normal e-commerce functionalities, the platform has different funneling for B2B and B2C customers. The pricing varies based on the account type.
What is the team composition?
9series had a whole team behind the project. We spoke to their two directors, especially during the initial business analysis when we were starting to form a relationship. We had initial conversations with their head of business development, and they introduced us to the whole team that’d be working on the project. Then, we interacted with a project manager, a UI/UX designer, the development lead, and the main software engineer.
How did you come to work with 9series Solutions Pvt. Ltd?
We found them by luck. Our CEO was talking to a peer from another company who happened to mention 9series. He put in a good word for them, and we were already on the lookout for such a company.
We also considered a couple of Kenyan companies and other ones in India. Compared to those, 9series was really interested in the solution we were trying to build. They were a little on the higher side in terms of cost, but we chose them because of the quality of their engagement, flexibility, guidance, and unwillingness to take shortcuts in certain areas just to keep the cost down. 9series was focused on the solution much more than the pricing, and they were vocal about it.
How much have you invested with them?
The cost so far is around $45,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with 9series in August 2018, and we went live with the first phase in July 2020. The collaboration is ongoing for support and enhancements.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
9series has a good team from a technical standpoint. We’ve faced some challenges, but everything was resolved in good time.
The prevalence of e-commerce platforms isn’t that high in this part of the world, especially in the B2B segment. That said, we do have an 8% adoption rate on the B2B side, out of all our customers. We also measure website traffic, bounce rates, cart abandonment rates, and other metrics, but we’re still in the early days.
We appreciated having their directors on the front lines. This is generally overlooked during these kinds of collaborations. It was nice to have visibility into the whole team and relationships with members at different levels.
How did 9series Solutions Pvt. Ltd perform from a project management standpoint?
They were very professional in keeping us in the loop during the requirements gathering and development phases. They delivered on time.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Their customer relationship management is pretty strong, along with the technical skillset of their team.
Are there any areas they could improve?
I would’ve taken a more iterative approach on how the project was delivered instead of a waterfall one where the whole website was built out then tested and launched. Building it in pieces and rolling each one out separately would’ve allowed us to integrate customer feedback into the solution.
Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?
Clients should be really clear about what they want to get out of the engagement. In addition, I recommend engaging 9series in an incremental and iterative manner in order to create the most relevant and beneficial solution for customers.
