Altabel Group

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the product development manager of One Hub Energy, an energy company. We use proprietary technology and data-driven intelligence to optimize the value and performance of solar and battery energy storage assets for energy users, generators, and investors across their entire lifecycle.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Altabel Group?

We needed support for the development of our solar and battery storage optimization platform, One Hub Analytics. Our objective was to accelerate the delivery of the platform by outsourcing the main frontend and backend development work while keeping the API architecture, core optimization logic, financial modeling libraries, and proprietary analytical components under our internal control.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Altabel Group handles the main frontend and backend development for One Hub Analytics. Their work focuses on transforming our internal modeling capabilities, APIs, and computational libraries into a usable SaaS product.Specifically, the scope includes the development of the web application interface, implementation of backend application logic, user workflows, data handling, project configuration screens, results visualization, and integration with our internal APIs and proprietary simulation and optimization libraries.Moreover, the main goals are to develop the UI, implement the backend application logic, integrate the platform with our internal APIs and computational libraries, and help transform our internal modeling capabilities into a usable cloud-based product.

What is the team composition?

We’ve worked with around 6-10 teammates from Altabel Group.

How did you come to work with Altabel Group?

We found them through a referral. We chose them because their pricing fit our budget and offered good value for the cost.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with them in January 2024, and our engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Altabel Group has helped us move One Hub Analytics from an internal modeling environment towards a usable SaaS platform. Their work has enabled us to have a functioning frontend and backend application layer around our proprietary optimization, financial modeling, and simulation libraries.The progress is visible through several concrete results, including working UIs, project and scenario configuration workflows, backend services connected to our internal APIs, dashboards, and result visualization screens. Moreover, they’ve contributed to around 7–8 product updates and releases of One Hub Analytics.From a business perspective, the collaboration has helped us prepare One Hub Analytics for client demonstrations, investor presentations, and commercial validation in the renewable energy and battery storage market. The platform has been shown in around 20 client demonstrations, and we now have clients using or evaluating the product.

How did Altabel Group perform from a project management standpoint?

Altabel Group’s project management is very effective, especially in the early phases of the project. We have a highly capable project manager who has established the basis of the collaboration in a very efficient way. This has helped us organize the work, coordinate the frontend and backend development teams, and create a productive working rhythm with our internal team.Moreover, they generally deliver on time and help us maintain momentum across several product releases. This is particularly valuable because the project is complex and evolving, involving the development of a SaaS application around our proprietary optimization, simulation, and financial modeling components.

What did you find most impressive about them?

What impresses us most about Altabel Group is their flexibility and ability to adapt their development capacity to the needs of the project. At the beginning, we needed a larger team to accelerate the initial build of the platform. Later, we reduced the team for ongoing development and then scaled up again when we needed to integrate the financial model.This flexibility is very valuable for us as a small startup because our development needs have changed significantly over time. Overall, what makes them stand out is their combination of technical execution, team scalability, and practical collaboration. They’ve helped us move faster without requiring us to build a full in-house frontend and backend team from the beginning.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Overall, our experience with Altabel Group has been very positive. One area that could be managed differently is the rotation of some key roles during the project. Their flexibility and ability to adapt the team size to our needs are very valuable, but they also mean that some important positions have changed over time.In a complex product like One Hub Analytics, involving frontend, backend, APIs, optimization, simulation, and financial modeling, continuity in key roles is important for efficiency and knowledge retention. That said, Altabel Group has managed these transitions responsibly. They’ve assessed the cost and impact of their internal personnel changes and worked to maintain project continuity.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Altabel Group is a very good partner for SaaS product development. They have a very capable team and a very good project manager. They’re also very flexible and collaborative.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Altabel Group?

We needed to design and develop a website that would support the growth of our business, not just look good visually. Our goals were to create a clear, intuitive UX, communicate our brand philosophy, and integrate all the necessary tools to move the business forward: from bookings and consultations to content, structure, and scalability.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The project resulted in a much more structured and efficient business workflow. We saw clearer client journeys, higher-quality inquiries, and smoother online booking and consultation processes. The website now supports our services more effectively, reduces manual work on our side, and allows us to guide clients more intentionally through our offerings. Overall, the platform became a true business tool that supports growth, scalability, and a better client experience.While we didn’t set out with rigid KPIs at the start, we’ve seen clear, measurable improvements across key areas. 
Online bookings and consultation requests increased after launch, manual back-and-forth communication was significantly reduced thanks to automated flows and structured intake forms, and client engagement improved as users were able to navigate services more easily and complete actions in fewer steps. Internally, the time spent on administrative tasks dropped noticeably, allowing us to focus more on clients and growth. 
In fact, we saw a 30% improvement in these metrics, and the improvement was sustained over the following months. After the initial post-launch uplift, the metrics stabilized at a higher baseline rather than dropping back. Online bookings and consultation requests remained consistently stronger than before, and the reduction in manual administrative work continued as the automated systems became part of our daily operations. Over time, we also saw more qualified inquiries, which further improved efficiency and client engagement.

How did Altabel Group perform from a project management standpoint?

Altabel Group delivered on time. We primarily communicated through virtual meetings, emails, and messaging apps.

What did you find most impressive about them?

What impressed us most was how easy and professional the collaboration felt from start to finish. Altabel Group was highly focused, client-oriented, and very attentive to our business needs.

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

We have engaged Altabel to develop a comprehensive online training platform designed specifically for clinicians to enhance their understanding of microscopy morphology content and improve their ability to interpret images for more informed decision-making in cancer treatment. This platform focuses on the educational needs associated with breast and prostate cancer morphology, delivering content through a structured and interactive learning experience.

Key Components:

Basic Training Module:

• Content Overview: This module is designed to provide clinicians with foundational knowledge in morphology relevant to breast and prostate cancer. It will include multiple chapters, each consisting of detailed reading sheets that cover essential concepts.
• Interactive Learning: Each chapter is accompanied by quizzes that clinicians can complete at their own pace. However, to ensure a robust understanding, clinicians must achieve a specified score on each quiz to unlock the next chapter or subsequent part of the training.
• Outcome: By the end of this module, clinicians will have a solid grasp of the basic morphological content necessary for informed image interpretation in cancer treatment.

Advanced Training Module:

• Content Overview: This module builds on the knowledge gained in the basic training and introduces advanced concepts and techniques for image interpretation.
• Image Viewer Functionality: A key feature of this module is the integration of an online image viewer that allows clinicians to interact with microscopy images directly. Clinicians can navigate within images, make annotations, and submit these annotations for review by designated stakeholders.
• Collaborative Learning: The review process is designed to provide feedback and enhance learning, ensuring clinicians refine their skills in image interpretation.

Summary of Key Deliverables:

1. Development of the Online Training Platform: 
   • A user-friendly platform tailored to the needs of clinicians, featuring an intuitive interface and seamless navigation between modules.
2. Basic Training Module: 
   • Creation of structured educational content, including reading materials, quizzes, and progression criteria.
   • Implementation of a scoring system to manage access to subsequent chapters and modules.
3. Advanced Training Module: 
   • Integration of an online image viewer for advanced image navigation and annotation.
   • Development of a feedback system for reviewing clinician annotations by relevant stakeholders.
4. Testing and Deployment: 
   • Comprehensive testing of the platform to ensure functionality, usability, and performance.
   • Final deployment of the platform, ensuring all features and modules are fully operational for clinician use.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The project’s success can be evaluated through the following key measurable outcomes, each of which reflects progress towards the overarching goal of enhancing clinicians' ability to interpret microscopy morphology and improve decision-making in cancer treatment:

User Engagement and Completion Rates:

• Metric: The number of clinicians who enrolled in and completed the basic and advanced training modules.
• Outcome: The platform has seen strong user engagement, with over 200 clinicians actively using it. Notably, 60% of these clinicians have completed at least the basic training module, demonstrating the platform’s effectiveness in attracting and retaining users.

Quiz Performance and Knowledge Retention:

• Metric: Average scores on quizzes and the time taken to progress through the training modules.
  Outcome: The average score obtained on the final test of the basic training module is above 90%, indicating high levels of knowledge retention and understanding among the clinicians. This high success rate reflects the quality and clarity of the educational content provided.

Improvement in Image Interpretation Skills:

• Metric: The accuracy and quality of clinician annotations on images before and after completing the advanced training module.
• Outcome: Clinicians showed measurable improvement in their ability to interpret morphology images, thanks to the platform’s comprehensive training. This improvement is a key indicator of the platform’s success in enhancing clinical decision-making capabilities.

Feedback from Clinicians:

• Metric: User satisfaction scores and qualitative feedback collected via surveys after completing each training phase.
• Outcome: Extremely positive feedback from clinicians and partners
