Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
The purpose of the project is to take all the learnings we have from customer feedback, competitor products, and other usability concerns with the TPS Omni mobile apps, and create new apps that are much improved stability wise as well as adding new features. Essentially, we wanted to build new, re-designed iOS and Android apps from the ground up.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
I was extremely pleased with the project results. First, while a little harder to measure, I think the weekly and often daily communications with AppIt were extremely successful. They always listened to and addresses and concerns we had. From a measurable outcome, so far our app rating (new one developed by AppIt) on App Sore is 4.7 -- up from 1.
On Android, we can't tell exactly since Google does not allow resetting ratings, but from my investigations the app rating is above 4 stars. Again, up from 1. We have also received a lot of positive reviews about the look and operation of the new app.
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
This was a complex project and AppIt met all the deliverables on time. They were available daily for any questions or concerns. They have a great project management process such that I was able to log any bugs/issues during the development cycle. They addressed every one of them and when there was a tough issue to overcome, they never gave up.
This is perhaps what I appreciated most. When one level of developer could not solve the issue, they escalated to their senior level developers and always came up with a solution.
What was your primary form of communication with AppIt Ventures?

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
We were impressed by their weekly and often daily communication on the progress of the project. Their attitude of never giving up on tough issues. Their incredible fast turnaround of new builds to test -- there were times when I was getting new builds on a near daily basis. That is how fast they were addressing issues I was finding in testing.
Are there any areas for improvement or something AppIt Ventures could have done differently?
No. I honestly can't think of anything.

AppIt Ventures has created software for an educational enrollment company. The team has used React.js, Node.js, and MongoDB to build a contact database, enrollment pipeline, and dashboard.
AppIt Ventures has delivered a high-quality software solution that aligns with the client’s vision. They’ve gone above and beyond the scope to ensure the software benefits users. The team has been responsive, communicative, and receptive to feedback, using Trello to manage tasks.
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the co-founder and CEO of Scholarlead; we operate an enrollment management software that helps public schools increase their enrollment.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with AppIt Ventures?
We wanted to build a software platform to meet our current client needs. I’m a non-technical co-founder, so I needed to find a partner to help us make a software solution. Initially, we engaged a different development partner, but they weren’t meeting our expectations, which delayed our timeline by several months. We hired AppIt to help us deliver on our promise to our clients.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
We started researching and designing ourselves and took initial steps to create a vision for the software. We also explored ways to develop the software and hired another development agency to build the software, which didn’t work out.
When we started working with AppIt, we had already completed our designs, user profiles, and architecture; we just needed their engineers to build it. They built the software using React.js, Node.js, and MongoDB, a non-relational database. They also performed minimal design work using our existing templates.
The main technical feature is a contact database, but they also built an enrollment pipeline and an enrollment dashboard. When we onboard a new school, one of our first steps is to import their data from Excel or Google Sheets to our tool. Once the information is in our tool, we can feed it to other features, such as the enrollment pipeline, which shows enrollment stages for each parent’s enrollment status. The tool also features a dashboard that breaks down goals and performance analytics.
Although the AppIt team has completed the project and delivered the MVP, we’ve continued engaging them on a retainer basis for minor software development tasks. They also help us with our ad-hoc maintenance needs.
What is the team composition?
We’ve primarily worked with Amanda (CEO) and Kalyankumar (Tech Architect & PM).
How did you come to work with AppIt Ventures?
We found AppIt through our local networks and online research. They made a great first impression, so we decided to work with them.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve invested about $100,000 in the partnership with AppIt.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with AppIt in March 2022, and they delivered the MVP in September 2022. The partnership is ongoing on a retainer basis.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We’re very pleased with the transition to AppIt because they’ve delivered high-quality work. They saved our business after working with our first development partner. Additionally, they’re expert software engineers, and I only have great things to say about the partnership. As with any software development project, we’ve faced bugs, but the team has addressed them immediately, which is all we can ask for.
Currently, 14 schools are using the software. We launched the software at a conference, and they dedicated significant resources to prepare us for the software launch. It took a lot of effort from them to deliver, but they came through, and I’m pleased to have a partner that is willing to prioritize our needs. If we’d gone to the conference without the MVP, we would have had a very different outcome.
How did AppIt Ventures perform from a project management standpoint?
AppIt is very organized, and they’ve executed a solid project management workflow. Amanda is fantastic; she cares deeply about her clients and work. I also have nothing but great things to say about Kalyankumar, who has managed the process from start to finish and effectively communicated our needs to the engineering team.
AppIt has done everything in their power to deliver good quality software in a timely manner. They do a great job of managing expectations and setting realistic milestones based on our needs. They care more about creating a high-quality product than meeting a deadline, which works for us.
The customer-focused team has gone above and beyond the initial scope and built features to improve the tool. During the development phase, we had a few instances where we realized that adding a feature or tweaking the software could make it better for our users. AppIt was willing to put in extra work and effort to deliver solid software to our schools at no additional cost.
They’re very accessible and communicative, and Amanda has always been receptive to our feedback. We’ve met with AppIt weekly and used email to communicate. We’ve also used Google Workspace and a Trello board to manage project tasks.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I’m most impressed with AppIt’s leadership and appetite for customer success. They care deeply about our success and are dedicated to meeting our needs, which is important. They’ve become a reliable, trustworthy development partner.
Are there any areas they could improve?
AppIt has missed a few deadlines due to their customer-focused nature and desire to deliver the best quality possible. However, I’d rather have a customer-focused partner than one who meets deadlines.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
If you’re looking for a software development partner, going with AppIt is a no-brainer. You can trust them to prioritize your project as if it were their own. Take it from me; they’ll do whatever is necessary to deliver the best possible result.

AppIt Ventures worked with a business technology firm to create a GPS-based asset tracking app that allows users to perform device configurations. The client required the platform to be integrated into AWS.
AppIt Ventures provided a seamless service from start to finish. They perfected the client's needs at the first revision and documented the whole process with praiseworthy credentials and information on the app's maintenance. The project was finished within 12 months of their partnership.

BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
Neoteros, headquartered in Arvada, Colorado, helps physical venues use data to streamline operations and improve visitor/customer experiences. Our Dynamic Business Intelligence solutions and services are trusted in retailers, universities, smart cities, airports, churches, industrial settings, and other large venues around the globe. I am the Executive Director.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire AppIt Ventures, and what were your goals?
We hired AppIt to bring BoxMetrix, an elegant GPS-based asset tracking application, to life. We required Technical Consulting, Blueprinting, UI/UX, Design, Dev, Database, and various API Integrations. The application needed to be downloadable for mobile as well as accessible via the web.
Our goal was to visualize and contextualize data streams from our intelligent asset tracking sensor devices. The visualization needed to be google maps based and the app needed to allow users to perform device configuration, set rules, view events, alerts, notifications, manage teams and clients, and visualize sensor data via a mix of charts, graphs and widgets. It needed to be integrated seamlessly in AWS and be as accurate and reliable as it is beautiful.
At the end of the day, we needed this application to serve as a complete asset location and health management platform for industrial businesses with high-value offsite equipment. The app needed to help our customers increase operational efficiency, streamline workflows, manage high-value assets, and consolidate disparate systems.
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
I painstakingly researched, interviewed, and built out a comparative matrix on 53 software/app dev companies around the globe. After several demos, interviews, questionnaires, in-person meetings, and making the finalists battle for the contract, AppIt was able to prove they were highly process-oriented, had an impeccable understanding of the user experience I required, and could complete the application within my required delivery timeline.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
We started out with several meetings about scope. We talked through lots of granular details about design, inspiration, functionality, UI/UX, and overall expectations. From there, a Project Sprint Plan was developed. We started the sprints with design/wireframing, UI, and UX. AppIt nailed my proposed vision on the first shot and perfected it after the first revision. After design commenced, the dev team started coding and connected the required ancillary backend programs, (AWS, firebase, google, etc) to stand the app up. At this point, sensor APIs were connected and database items were addressed. We moved on to designing rules engines, device configurations, and other logic-heavy items. It should be known that AppIt has testing teams that test, troubleshoot, and debug constantly and they ask that the client test weekly as well. Once everything works as required, the app is pushed out of the dev environment and into production. Our application was pushed into production as a progressive web app for Super Users/Admins and to the android and google play store for mobile users, which comprise of team members and other non-admin staffers. After the app was pushed to production, the standard warranty period started. No issues have come up. After AppIt completed the project, they provided very well-written documentation showcasing how the app was built, providing all credentials and information required to sustain the app, and a future roadmap with instructions on how to properly grow the application over time without wasting time/money.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
Overall, I worked with 8-10 people directly. My main point of contact was a Project Manager. I would meet with the PM and the leads of the departments that were currently in play. For instance, in the UI/UX stage, I would consistently meet with the PM and the lead UI/UX person, and so on down the road to completion.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
We went from a “Good Idea” to a feature-rich, ready-to-roll application in 12 short months. AppIt allowed us to become an industry leader in one of the fastest-growing segments, and we couldn't be more proud of the product they delivered. Success stories to come!
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
Project management was led by Lucas and accompanied by various segment leads. Lucas did a great job of keeping the schedule tight, describing updates, timelines, and bugs that were found and being fixed, while the technical team did a great job of describing all things that naturally go over the heads of non-developers. Special shout-out to Meghanath, Bharath, Emma, Lauren, Ryan, and the rest of the team for continuously exceeding my expectations and teaching me a million things along the way, and Amanda for creating a stellar culture that shines through in the attitude and work product of the team. The google suite was used for meetings, document directories, scheduling, and everything in between.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
The culture! I seriously cannot credit this team enough for the ability to execute a vision and do it with pure joy. It really goes to show that a business, when led by a team-oriented visionary like Amanda, can achieve anything they put their minds to. Our expectations were extremely high and were exceeded every single week of this amazing journey. We cannot wait to start the upgrade phase!
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
Nope!

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the owner of a business called Hop Passport. We are a brewery marketing company that partners with breweries across the country in 28 states and put them into what we call a “passport”, which is essentially a coupon book. Our business does this to drive more new or existing customers into the locations.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with AppIt Ventures?
We needed mobile app development services.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
We went to AppIt Venture’s offices before COVID-19 to lay down the groundwork and show them what we currently had for the first phase of operations. Their team designed how the app would like before they built it out. Our goal with this project was to replicate what we had with our main product which was a physical paper passport.
The cross-platform app allows customers to create a unique username and password to log in. Once they enter, they can see a map that shows where nearby partnered breweries are located and go there to get beer specials and digital stamps on their passports. The app tracks all the locations the client’s been to.
The team also developed different Snapchat-like filters for people to take pictures with them.
What is the team composition?
I have a main contact which is a salesperson that relays the information to the development team. I believe we’ve worked with ten developers, one of them being the head of the team.
How did you come to work with AppIt Ventures?
I found AppIt Ventures on Google, and I reached out to them. We looked at different development companies in the Denver area and met with them.
How much have you invested with them?
Our company has invested $130,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
Our engagement started in May 2019, and it’s ongoing.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We’ve had 800 downloads in just one month, and around 2,200 digital stamps have been redeemed — it’s been a high success.
How did AppIt Ventures perform from a project management standpoint?
AppIt Ventures’ team is very communicative, and if we have any questions or concerns, they’re pretty prompt and get back to us, even on weekends. For instance, we had a problem with an Android update that caused our app not to load on a certain Samsung smartphone model. I texted my contact, and they swiftly solved the problem.
We have a weekly Zoom meeting to talk about how the enhancements are going. Communication is one of their biggest positives.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I’m very impressed with the work itself; they have very good designers that come up with creative functionalities to implement on the app. They’ve delivered each time and have always been there to fix problems quickly. Sometimes bugs appear, but that’s pretty normal when dealing with technology and app development.
Are there any areas they could improve?
There’s nothing that comes to mind.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Come to them prepared with everything you want so they can start working on building your ideas.
