AppSierra initially held manual testing services for a financial services company. Now, the vendor is working on establishing an automated test suite for them, too.
The beginning of the client's partnership with AppSierra stamped on their trust towards the vendor. The app is not accustomed to running hundreds of automated tests before deploying their projects. The teams hold weekly standups to report progress and communicate sufficiently through Zoom and Slack.
The client submitted this review online.
BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
I'm the head of quality for my organization where I oversee testing and release readiness.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire AppSierra?
We provide a suite of front end and back end products to our customers so ensuring that we have a stable and usable product is incredibly important. Our initial requirements were to have manual testing of our front end but has since expanded to our mobile product as well as establishing an automated test suite.
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
We initially started working with AS after discovering and interviewing him from UpWork. Our scope has since expanded and we are utilizing several resources to conduct manual and automated testing of our applications.
Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.
The team is responsible for all manual testing of any new functionality which includes regression testing . The team is also responsible for building out all new automated test cases and maintaining the existing repository.
How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
We work directly with 4 manual testers and 1 automation tester.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The manual testing has provided confidence that our application is stable and functioning. The amount of progress we have made with automation testing has been incredible. We use a custom CLI that the team has been able to get accustomed to and we can now run hundreds of automated tests before deploying.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
Communication has been sufficiently managed over Zoom and Slack. We have a weekly standup at the start of the week and have plenty of dialog over Slack throughout the week. The team sends end of day and end of week summaries which are great to understand and track progress.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
The team was very quick to onboard and begin testing. They have been incredibly thorough and have proved to be an invaluable part of the QA process.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
"They possess an abundance of both quantity and quality resources."

Each week, the team did exactly what they said they would do. The team used Slack a lot to make sure problems were fixed so they wouldn't affect the results or cause plans to slip.
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

As we brought on the Appsierra team, it became clear that they needed to know a lot about Linux for what we were doing. Appsierra found out what training was needed, gave us the course outline, and then taught the team. Once the training was over, it was clear how much they had learned and how quickly they could use what they had learned.
Are there any areas for improvement or something AppSierra could have done differently?

AppSierra provides ongoing end-to-end web-based application testing for locker management software. They use the strategy the partners collaborated on for manual testing; the next step is automated testing.
AppSierra has comprehensive testing practices — they've revealed a lot of app bugs for the client to fix. They use agile methodologies and work in sprints. The partners collaborate and track project progress through ClickUp. AppSierra is very helpful and accommodating.

BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
I'm the product manager of a web app connected, data driven smart locker company for businesses.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire AppSierra , and what were your goals?
I'm the product manager at a leading smart locker company and we hired AppSierra to test both our app. The goal is to also getting them to test our hardware as well for a full end to end test.
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
When we were looking at all the applicants for the position AppSierra really stood out as very professional and went quite in-depth with their feedback to the tasks we assigned to them, well above any of the other competition.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
We had a kickoff meeting to discuss our needs and requirements and AppSierra came back with an in-depth document on their strategy they were going to implement via manual testing of both of our main web apps. The next step for AppSierra is to do automated testing which they said they would happily provide, it's really great how they have a solution to any problems we might have testing wise.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
I believe we've worked with two of their manual testers, one being replaced by the second when they were no longer available, the transition was flawless between these two and we did not need to provide further training as they did it themselves.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
After using AppSierra we found out we had a lot more bugs that first thought and they worked very thoroughly when assigned tasks to test.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
Sprint, agile, using click-up.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
They are very helpful to your needs and accommodate very well.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.
Without going too specific, I can say it is an app adored by esports gamers worldwide. As we added new features and games, by integrating various APIs, we frequently encountered unpredictable results. So we required a person to download nightly builds and go through the app with fresh eyes every time and try to break things, and articulate the problems in such a way that it was repeatable and easy to understand for the app team.
How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
This is a focused group project - We're a small team of ten, mostly developers. Our company however has over 500 employees

Overall we're very happy with the quality and industriousness of the contractor, who is very consistent and communicative. Relative to local costs, we have saved money.

Over time the app has improved in direct results of their QA work, so I would say this process is effective
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
They are knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and communicative. It's also nice that they can provide a range of other IT services on a whim, and on short notice. It is a collective of talented people
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
I don't have any particular complaints, they're quite flexible

BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the director of a home bakers unit which based home based. We get hundreds of order every day from different locations nearby.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire AppSierra?
We receive hundreds of orders from different parts of our locality on daily basis and for the smooth ordering we managed to build a mobile app. But it was too basic version and it had a lot of issues including user interface . So we connected with Appsierra to rebuilt the mobile app and to give it a new look and better performance. The main reason for the quick rework was the huge raise of orders that we received during the covid 19.
What were your goals for this project?
We wanted to resolve the customer complaints regarding the slow pace of the working of our old version mobile app. As because of the covid 19 we experience a huge spike in the order the app almost stopped working and this made us really struggle to work during the pandemic. So we wanted to built a quality, user friendly application that will enable our customer to order products through our app smoothly.
SOLUTION
How did you select AppSierra?
We found out about Appsierra via a peer recommendation and had a meeting to decide how to move forward. They recommended the needed changes and the strategies.
Describe the project in detail.
They recommended going with a simple and easy-to-use interface as it will help in improving user experience and downloads. Instead of doing this that we told, they were giving us feedback and advice. The team developed mobile apps for iOS and Android using native languages . The platform has new features such as a real-time chat tool, saved search with alerts, social logins, and highlighting products according to the tastes to the user. The team conducted end-to-end development. We provided our specifications and old data bases before starting the rework. We then offered feedback and testing throughout the project.
What was the team composition?
They provided us with three to four people, including a tech lead and project manager and developers. The team had excellent skills and they worked well as expected..
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The end product made the quality at high and prevented bugs and issues that the platform experienced. They completely rewrote the previous architecture of the app. The clearest impact of the success of the project was seen in the speed/response time of the app which we had the concerns. Soon after the relaunch we seen a huge spike in the downloads and despite of the huge numbers of downloads and users, the app is preforming well.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
In my opinion, they are the most responsive service provider. When i compare the company who built the old app with Appsierra, i can clearly see the difference and impact. Appsierra managed the project very well and they coordinated very well with me and took more responsibility than me. We had daily meetings and received weekly activity reports. Even their feedback times were super fast.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
Appsierra provided us a project manager who did a wonderful job. They shown both professional as well as personal quality. I was concerned about the communication between a team with whom i never met, but they were just superb. Appsierra stood up to my expectations as a committed company, with professional quality and ethics, and dedicated friendly team.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Nothing to report regarding this matter. They are very much professional and no room for complaints.
