The goal of the project was to create a highly-performance platform with intuitively understandable for every user UI and UX, as well as, to make the app run without “overstressing" users’ computers.
AnyforSoft used a complex approach for the Back-end and Front-end part. The best solution to save the process of video editing was editing not a video, but frames with full simulation on the Front-end.

Pine Dev Studio
Pine Dev Studio is the web agency who contacted AnyforSoft for help with the custom request on setting up the high load environment on the AWS platform. The business goal was to develop a flawless and as stable as possible environment with an advanced backup system. In the course of planning, our team faced several top-level challenges delivered from the client where the client wanted to either avoid some of the pains they have or minimize their impact.
During multiple internal discussions and communication sessions with the client, Anyforsoft came up with the architecture that as a result, has covered the main customer’s pain - loss of data resulted from an unstable connection between front-end and back-end applications.
Now the existing system has:
-
two separate servers for the back-end and for the balancer in the separate subnet;
-
two separate servers for the front-end and for the balancer in the separate subnet;
-
PostgreSQL for the front-end and for the back-end in the separate subnet.

Frontend Dev Augmentation for Blockchain Tech Co
"I have high standards for my team and vendors, and AnyforSoft has met my expectations."
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 Vareger Group. Our team of 50 focuses on blockchain technology.
What challenge were you trying to address with AnyforSoft?
We didn’t have enough frontend resources. As it wasn’t one of our core competencies, we decided to outsource those tasks.
What was the scope of their involvement?
AnyforSoft’s developed our web app from scratch, so there was nothing in place before their team started the development. They worked on the frontend and integrated blockchain logic based on our specifications into the app. Their team used TypeScript and React. The blockchain solution’s for the insurance industry.
What is the team composition?
At the moment, we work with one developer from AnyforSoft. There’s also an account manager on their side who manages tasks like invoicing and projecting workloads.
How did you come to work with AnyforSoft?
As this was an important project for us, we wanted to work with a team based in our time zone that spoke our language. It was also important that our partner wasn’t bigger than 80–100 people because I wanted to have good communication between us. I found AnyforSoft through a local alternative to Upwork.
How much have you invested with them?
So far, we’ve spent around $15,000 on their services. In 2021, we expect to spend a total of $50,000–$70,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
Our ongoing partnership with AnyforSoft began in January 2021.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
AnyforSoft delivers excellent quality. Before working with us, their developer didn’t have blockchain experience but quickly learned it. He now has great knowledge of the technology and provides quality products. I’m satisfied with their developer’s work. He’s professional and doesn't waste time on unnecessary tasks.
How did AnyforSoft perform from a project management standpoint?
Their developer fully integrated into our company. We use Slack and email and have no issues with their communication. We also have a monthly meeting. Although their account manager’s process wasn’t what I expected, I’m happy with it.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I have high standards for my team and vendors, and AnyforSoft has met my expectations.
Are there any areas they could improve?
They could improve their account management. AnyforSoft is also a bit expensive for our local market. They could be more flexible with their rates and team compositions. We expect to need more frontend engineers and given their high rates, I’m debating whether or not to use AnyforSoft.

The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
Enterprise-level online luxury cosmetics store with own production. President/Founder at Bellame.com.
For what projects/services did your company hire AnyforSoft, and what were your goals?
We started with a trial scope of work and after cycling through a few other companies, we ended u hiring AnyforSoft to take on the complex work. It was a great decision to start working with them!
How did you select AnyforSoft and what were the deciding factors?
We were connected through Drupal.org and were impressed by one of their Senior devs and diligently follow up. With the help of our CTO, we selected AnyforSoft to take on our complex project.
Then Bellame started rapidly growing and the tech team grew up as well. The quality of work, responsiveness, and technical expertise were some of the key factors that allowed us to capitalize on our growth potential. They care about our company and have really become part of our team.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
Drupal is our core technology platform we leverage, and as a result, we don't have to rely on third-party plug-in programs that limit our customization.
In general, Bellame's system consists of many unique deliverables, but the main are: the engine for running rewards and compensations calculations for our partners with an adjustable dashboard to track their current standing, fraud protection system, shipment integration system, eCommerce for selling our products.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
Project manager, technical lead, dev team (back-end and front-end engineers), QA engineers, system admin and designer. 9-11 people, it depends on ongoing needs.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
A big part of our propriety platform besides our commission engine is inventory management and forecasting. This has helped us forecast demand based on the inventory that helps us time new purchase orders.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timelines.
Project management is very agile, which is a must for our business. We have to chat with the team about our day to day communications, JIRA as a task management system, monthly reports. And sync up, live face time meetings of course.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
People on the team - professional and service-oriented who are willing to bring value. The team truly feels Bellame is their company too and willing to do what it takes to get the job done, even on weekends.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
We have our challenges from time to time, and it's expected when you're growing and developing fast. Still, they are very attentive to feedback and are capable to improve processes proactively as well. Technology and business changes happen, especially today, but it's how you react and solve problems that matter most.

Please describe your company and your position there.
I'm a Founder at Artjoker Software.
For what projects/services did your company hire AnyforSoft, and what were your goals?
We needed a partner for large website development project from scratch using a Drupal CMS.
How did you select AnyforSoft and what were the deciding factors?
We've looked at several Drupal vendors for possible collaboration. Based on the results of the negotiations, Anyforsoft was preferred due to their fast response with a well-formed proposal.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
AnyforSoft did both part of the back-end and all front-end for the project. All in Drupal 8. The project involved theming, as well as adding reporting, subscription, and 3rd party API integration functionality and other features. Their developers also integrated the site with HubSpot. I was partially in charge of project management from our side and gave tasks to Anyforsoft’s team.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
We had a team of 6 people. Account manager, 3 full-stack and 2 front-end devs.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
The main outcome was that the project was successfully completed on time with significant cost savings and a high level of technical competence. At the moment, the site is working smoothly and we've never received negative feedback in almost 5 months (which, I think, can be considered as positive feedback)
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timelines.
In overall, project management was excellent. There were no delays that could affect the rapidity of making the necessary decisions. Thanks to that we always stayed on time, even when unexpected obstacles occurred. For communication we’ve mostly used Slack, as well as regular meetings in Hangouts and occasional phone calls.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
We were amazed at their flexibility. Projects as large as this often have many moments when process enhancements need to be made due to various difficulties that arise along the way. The team very quickly adapted to any changes, as well as often proposed their own ideas for improvement.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
Can't think of any at the moment.

For what projects/services did your company hire AnyforSoft, and what were your goals?
The Client had an urgent development request with really strict deadlines. Since most of our resources were busy at that time, we decided to hire Drupal developers from Anyforsoft. Our main goal was to fully satisfy our customer's wishes and preferences.
How did you select AnyforSoft and what were the deciding factors?
We found AnyforSoft through the platform for development vendors.

The team of two back-end Drupal developers.

Project management is at a very high level and the dev team is efficient and energetic. All tasks were completed on time and fully met expectations. Communication was well organized throughout the whole time of the cooperation thanks to which they have become a full-fledged part of our team.
To control the progress of execution we used project management tools, email, and periodically had phone calls with developers.

The simplicity of communication and execution speed distinguishes this company from similar ones.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Please describe your company and your position there.
I am a freelance consultant that advises various software companies on project processes, resources, and technologies. The client for that project was a finance themed digital media company with HQ in New York.
For what projects/services did your company hire AnyforSoft, and what were your goals?
Staff augmentation for Drupal web development of the financial media portal. The client had an old website built in WordPress that could no longer effectively cover all business needs.
The main goal was to create an MVP version of the new version of the website from scratch as soon as possible with the help of a third-party vendor, in order to gradually implement all subsequent improvements using internal resources in the future.
How did you select AnyforSoft and what were the deciding factors?
As a result of resource and workload assessment, it was decided to use the out-staff model. We turned to several vendors at once, choosing between several Drupal development companies. AnyforSoft was among the first ones to respond and the client was extremely pleased with the results of their estimate. The key factor was the ratio of price to execution time.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
After initial discussions and suggestions which led to some changes to the initial project, the team delivered the MVP version of the website built in Drupal 8 with implemented Thunder distribution and multiple UI elements, including a ribbon bar, menu, grid, dropdown, fully functional blog posts search, contact form and subscription service with a user account feature.
All content from the old client's website has been migrated and indexed.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
Account manager, 1 UI designer, 3 front-end developers and 1 QA engineer who carried out end-to-end testing.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
With the migration to Drupal 8, it’s now much easier for the client to manage typical for the media industry large scopes of content which dramatically increased their team productivity. As well as, 8th version simplified transition to the next versions of CMS in the future.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timelines.
Basically, everyday communication took place through Slack, as well as 3 times per week were organized sync-ups through Google Hangouts. Less commonly used was email.
The Dev team and the client were in different time zones, which slightly limited the communication window, nevertheless, the Account manager was available even outside of working hours when urgent questions arose. As a tracking tool client chose Jira.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
We were really impressed with their proactivity. At each stage, they proposed how to improve and speed up the process without losing quality, which was extremely important in the context of the unfolding economical crisis.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
Due to the difference in time zones, there were a couple of moments when it wasn't possible to find a time convenient for both sides for communication. But against the general background, this is too insignificant to pay attention to.

I'm the Management Assistant at a bio-tech company.
For what projects/services did your company hire AnyforSoft, and what were your goals?
Our website were out-dated and we need to have it updated to match the new corporate identity. Since we don't have the expertise in house, we need to hired an external company to perform the service. Our goal is to increase site visitors and raise corporate publicity and reputation.
How did you select AnyforSoft and what were the deciding factors?
We were recommended via a contact to Anyforsoft as a Drupal specialised website developer. We checked other websites designed by Anyforsoft and were persuaded that they are able to fulfil our needs.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
We had a kick-off meeting with our desired website pages and content and style. Anyforsoft developed a demo environment and we reviewed the design. After that we started to fill the content, where we had some feedback and experienced some problems.
After several rounds of feedback and update, the website was completed and good for running. The project ended with the website online and a warranty period of 30 days.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
The project manager was the main contact person through the project phase. The business development manager was in touch when initiating and ending the project.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timelines.
We had daily communication with the project manager and the main communication tool was email. They were able to communicate the leading time clearly and keep the timeline as planned.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
Anyforsoft created a mock website while developing, so that our website was still able to run during the development phase, while working on the new update in the background.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
It would be better to have structured communication and regular project meetings.

Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the Managing Director of a digital agency and we work with a variety of SME & charity clients.
For what projects/services did your company hire AnyforSoft, and what were your goals?
We had 3 projects that had a similar build architecture and we wanted to find an experienced and reliable supplier to assist us in delivering these. It was very important that the quality of the build was high as we would ultimately be maintaining it for the long-term, with good communication and meeting deadlines.
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
I have been quite active in attending various Drupal community events and would always enjoy my interactions with the team members. I always met with friendly people that I could share some fun conversations with.
These relationships became friendships and the feeling of trust was embedded within that. They were always helpful and I was looking forward to working with them for over a year, then finally the right project came along. The main deciding factor was their availability, responsiveness to communication, and professionalism. As the expertise we required with PatternLab & Layout Builder was relatively new and niche and AnyforSoft had previous experience with them, it was a really good fit.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
After an initial kick-off meeting, for the first week, we had daily standups and then decided they were no longer needed as communication on JIRA & Slack was enough. For design components, we broke down deliverables into different phases including:
- designs converted to Pattern Lab
- sitebuild and backend development
- theme integration
- technologies used included Drupal 8 (Symfony & Twig) & PatternLab (HTML, Twig, CSS & JS).
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
Our main contact was with our account manager who also assisted a little with project management and scheduling time of the developers. We worked with two frontend developers who worked on Pattern Lab. We also worked with one full stack developer who did some backend work & theme integration.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
We have learned about a few new contrib modules and some ways to improve the architecture of our projects. At times of higher pressure and workload, I was impressed with how flexible the team was to accommodate our requests.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
We were all happy to work in a light touch, ad-hoc basis. When either I or one of the developers would reach wanting to clarify something, we would schedule a voice call or screen share when convenient for all.
Many times this was immediate or very close to, which is great when project priorities and needs change. Their communication style has been friendly, helpful, but also they're never afraid to speak their mind when they believe there is a better way to do things which I always appreciate. Tools we used for project management & communication were JIRA, Confluence, Slack, Google Docs & Zoom/Google Meets.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
They provide great communication and are flexible to different ways of solving your problems as if they were theirs. And understanding our joint success helps all of us gain more business from my clients by doing everything possible to please them.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
No, I just wish they'd made it easier for me to remember them sooner so we could have worked together sooner as I've worked with some less reliable suppliers in the past.

I'm a BizDev Manager at Rolique. We are a web and mobile development agency.
For what projects/services did your company hire AnyforSoft?
We were in need to partner with the service company that could help us quickly extend the team with PHP specialists (Drupal, Symfony) for three projects. AnyforSoft agreed to help us with this.
What were your goals for this project?
One of the projects was a SaaS platform for the cleaning business and the goal of the project was to complete an admin part. The goal of the other two projects was to provide continuous support and maintenance of the existing projects.
How did you select this vendor?
We worked with a part of their PHP team when they were owned by another company. After they joined AnyforSoft we wanted to continue cooperation with this team and started negotiation process with AnyforSoft. They were open to establish a partnership with us as well as retain the previous team setup at our projects. We were impressed with their loyalty!
Describe the project in detail.
The first project - support and maintenance of the series of Drupal projects (long-term). The second project was a SaaS platform for the cleaning services. We needed to finalize an admin panel built with Symfony (short-term) The third project was also about the support and maintenance of the ski services platform built with PHP (short-term).
What was the team composition?
The team setup was changing depending on the projects' needs and phases. They provided us with three engineers for the two short-term projects and two engineers for a long-term project. There was also a QA involved in the process occasionally and a Project Manager.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
They were very responsive and pro-active during the negotiation process. It helped us quickly and smoothly expand our team with the resources and start working on the projects. They are diligent and flexible, ready to go the extra mile for effective cooperation. We are happy with their performance, management, and communication level.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
There was a Project Manager who was responsible for the communication, reporting, process, risk and delivery management. We communicated regularly in Slack with their Project Manager and were always aware of what's going on in the projects. All issues were timely communicated and resolved, and all the work processes were simple and clear.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
We are really impressed with their dedication and loyalty. They are proactive and we can always rely on their commitments. All team members are skilled and do their job well, and we appreciate it a lot.

Introduce your business and what you do there.
Stage Entertainment operates within the music business. We perform musicals often in our own venues within Europe and the US. On our websites, we inspire customers to go to a show and sell the tickets. I’m responsible for the development of all country websites.
What challenge were you trying to address with AnyforSoft?
Our company had been locally organized, meaning that all different countries —Spain, Germany, France, and the Netherlands— handled development locally. Every country developed its own website using its own provider, CMS, analytics implementation, etc.
It was my project to migrate everything to a central platform. The agency that made this happen is AnyforSoft.
What was the scope of their involvement?
AnyForSoft was our development party on the project. I played the role of the head of product, while AnyForSoft provided a proxy product owner/project manager on their side.
AnyforSoft made sure on their side that all business requests for new features designed by our agency in the Netherlands were developed in the correct way. They also provided all support for the website, making sure all sites are performing correctly.
AnyforSoft also handled stakeholder management. They had to manage questions and requests from different countries, as well as deliver support on how to set up and use the new CMS.
What is the team composition?
I was always in contact with the project manager/proxy product owner on their side, and he was responsible for making sure that all new requests were being developed. They had a team of frontend developers, backend developers, and testers.
There was a total of 9 fulltime people on their side. We had an account manager, a project manager, an architect, testers, frontend developers, and backend developers.
How did you come to work with AnyforSoft?
My predecessor met AnyforSoft at a Drupal conference. I took over the collaboration from him.
How much have you invested with them?
We started small, and we added more resources over the course of the project. The exact amount is confidential.
What is the status of this engagement?
I started working with AnyforSoft in November 2018.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
The impact of the new CMS has been huge. In the past, all countries had different CMSs and tooling, which cost a lot of money. Each component had to be made five times for each country.
Now, we can use e.g. the same header everywhere, and we can also reuse different components. We no longer have to develop a new website each time when we have a new show.
There is more harmony and efficiency, and we have higher-quality components than before. This also allows us to work better together across the company. In the past, we were more locally organized, and we’re working more together now, on a global level.
How did AnyforSoft perform from a project management standpoint?
They did a great job on that part! It was a very difficult project that involved the migration of seven websites to one platform, each one with different needs and coming from different cultures and different local plannings that were constantly changing.
The project manager on AnyforSoft’s side did an amazing job in communication, constantly balancing between the wishes of the business customer and the needs of the development team. He communicated well with the stakeholders about all the changes being done and about the process, and he gave the demo's every sprint to all stakeholders. It went very smoothly overall.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They’re willing to learn, and they work extremely hard. They’re ambitious and loyal, and they want to make an impact for the customer as well as the business. They’re really service-oriented, and they have a drive to go far. They’re open to feedback, and they try to adjust and become better.
Are there any areas they could improve?
As an agency, AnyforSoft became better and better during the project. We worked in an agile way, with constant sprints and support. They had to learn to work in this way, and it’s something that was pushed by me. They didn’t really have a choice, but they embraced this way of working and thinking.
Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?
There are different kinds of agencies with different expertise. AnyforSoft is really good in Drupal development at its core. I have no experience with their designers, so I cannot say something about the quality of that.
AnyforSoft dedicated a competent resource who quickly ascertained impressive knowledge of blockchain to begin producing outstanding deliverables. The experienced team member effectively prioritizes and executes tasks. Their assimilation with internal resources supports a successful partnership.
