How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

After searching high and low across Fiver, Upwork, Clutch and Google, we wanted to work with someone who has expertise on creating HIPAA-compliant apps. Apzumi really stood out. We got to look at the past projects conducted, and were impressed with the quality and complexity of their past projects. In our initial conversations, they were thorough, timely, fast with deliverables and showed how they have the technical know how to get our product out. We were between a few other companies but Apzumi from the start was committed to making our project a success, and they sure did deliver.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

Apzumi created a Hybrid mobile app on both IOS and Android and a web admin panel for the administration process.

Initially COO and CEO when estimations were created. Later, the team consisted of UI/UX expert, PM and developers (flutter, frontend and backend developers).

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

We developed our social network, which was done exactly how we hoped for it to be created. In addition, the survey platform created. The survey platform created used a completely new technology, and the Apzumi team took it upon themselves to learn how it not only works, but also, how to implement the tool to our platform. Even if the team doesn't know how to do something initially, they will find a way, which is what I appreciate about working with Apzumi.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

The team is working in an incremental way to deliver the newest version of the App. The Project Manager is helpful and transparent, explains risks if there is any obstacle faced by the team. We are communicating via Slack to solve any ongoing issues and connect for Sprint Planning and Sprint Review meetings. Whole Apzumi team is very friendly and stands up whenever there is a need to take action.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

I am impressed about the partnership of Apzumi with our startup. They've been integral to our growth. The team is knowledgeable and always makes sure we're satisfied with our work. They go above and beyond their expectations. When we needed assistance explaining our technologies to programs and partners, Apzumi's team not only helped prepare for meetings but was present at them.
