What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
For all vendors and individuals we collaborate with, top-tier skills are a prerequisite, but proactivity is what truly sets great talent apart. The design team we ultimately chose at Arounda not only possessed the technical expertise to meet our requirements and the autonomy to execute with detailed design specs, but they consistently went above and beyond. They proactively brought forward improved suggestions, enhanced UI/UX flows, and thoughtful feature recommendations that strengthened our platform’s design system, making it more cohesive and elevating the overall user experience. True talent is demonstrated when a team delivers not just answers to your questions but even better solutions than you initially envisioned. I can't recommend Arounda enough for your design system needs.
Are there any areas for improvement or something Arounda could have done differently?
Our project involved a complex design system requirement, and our team is notably more hands-on compared to most engagements. One potential improvement early on could be to ask the client about their preferred team member profiles or key qualities they value. While we were ultimately paired with a great and proactive team, as mentioned earlier, technical skill alone isn’t the only requirement. Aligning on priorities at the project’s outset could enhance initial team alignement fro the onset.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
Maksim’s role involved the full design of our MVP UI, from initial concept to a fully animated prototype. His responsibilities included both the Partner's dashboard experience and the consumer-facing web application, ensuring that the designs were optimized for both mobile and desktop responsiveness. The project entailed daily collaboration, where Maksim met with me and my cofounder every business day at 9am to review progress, discuss feedback, and ensure alignment with our vision.
Key Deliverables:
1. Research Review: Maksim thoroughly reviewed all our research documentation in Notion, ensuring that his designs were data-driven and aligned with user needs.
2. Low-Fidelity Wireframes: He created low-fidelity wireframes in Figma, outlining the structure and user flow for both the Partner and consumer interfaces.
3. High-Fidelity Wireframes: After approval of the initial wireframes, Maksim produced detailed high-fidelity wireframes, bringing the designs to life with polished visuals.
4. Animated Prototype: To support our sales and demo efforts, Maksim developed an animated prototype showcasing the platform's core functionality and user experience.
5. Responsive Design: His designs were tailored for both mobile and desktop, ensuring a seamless experience across devices.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Measurable Outcomes from the Project
1. Daily Progress and Alignment: Maksim’s consistent meetings with me and my cofounder at 9am every business day kept the project on track. We were able to review deliverables in real-time, address feedback promptly, and ensure the design was aligned with our goals. This consistent collaboration significantly accelerated our design timeline, allowing us to move forward quickly.
2. Low-Fidelity Wireframes Approval: The initial low-fidelity wireframes were completed and approved within two weeks, providing a clear user flow and structure for both the Partner and consumer experiences. This milestone helped guide the next phase of high-fidelity designs with confidence.
3. High-Fidelity Wireframes Delivered on Time: Maksim delivered the high-fidelity wireframes ahead of schedule, ensuring we had a polished UI ready to present to stakeholders and begin internal testing. These wireframes provided a realistic representation of the final product and helped secure internal buy-in.
4. Prototype for Sales and Demos: The animated prototype was delivered within the project timeline and has been actively used in sales presentations and product demos, contributing to positive feedback from potential partners and investors. This tool has been a key asset in showcasing the platform's functionality and user experience.
5. Mobile & Desktop Responsiveness: Maksim’s designs were tested and validated for responsiveness across both mobile and desktop platforms, resulting in a smooth user experience on all devices. This contributed to improved user engagement during internal beta testing, setting the stage for a successful product launch.
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
Maksim's project management was solid, and overall, we had no complaints. While we were behind schedule by about two weeks, it was a manageable delay that didn't significantly impact the broader project timeline. Despite the delay, Maksim consistently responded to our needs in a timely and professional manner. His responsiveness was excellent, whether it involved quick adjustments based on our feedback or addressing unforeseen changes. He was always available to meet, provide updates, and ensure we stayed aligned on the project’s goals.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
What stood out most about Arounda was their responsiveness and direct communication. They consistently delivered exactly what we needed, without unnecessary back and forth. Additionally, we appreciated that Maksim had access to internal designers within the company, allowing him to get valuable feedback and ensure that the work met our expectations. This collaborative approach, combined with their efficiency, made the experience smooth and productive.
Are there any areas for improvement or something Arounda could have done differently?
While Arounda delivered exactly what we asked for, which worked well for our MVP, we noticed that they often stuck strictly to the provided scope. In future projects, a bit more initiative in suggesting improvements or alternative ideas could be beneficial. Additionally, during the creation of the high-fidelity wireframes, there were a few instances where small changes were made in one part of the design but weren’t consistently replicated across other areas. However, these were minor issues and didn’t significantly impact the overall outcome.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
Arounda was great at delivering within the expected timeframes. They were flexible enough to be able to work around some of the things we were behind on to not get stuck since we had a hard date for the launch of our brand and site. Items were of great quality - very happy with the deliveries.
Few mistakes, which are inevitable, in the process were handled very quickly by the PM and their team. We had missed some items in our scoping, and Arounda was super helpful in getting us a resource to assist before launch. Very pleased with the assistance!

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
The speed and "no-bs" way of getting results. We were able to achieve output that typically can take 5x as long. They truly cared about the end result and did not just focus on "what was scoped." Agility and helpfulness are something that I am truly pleased with.
Are there any areas for improvement or something Arounda could have done differently?
Testing/QC, we had a few snags that I felt like should have been caught earlier. The team adjusted, and we found solutions to the problem. They also helped without cost - so no biggy. For billing, the process was a bit complicated, so either the ability to pay using a credit card/stripe - or provide invoices with swift-code per default, etc. These are minor things.

A nonprofit hired Arounda to design the UI/UX of their mobile app and admin panel. The team also worked on improving the user personas that the client had. They created designs using Figma.
The client was happy with Arounda. The team was great at conceptualizing ideas and designing user flows for the app. They were also willing to go above and beyond the initial scope of work to ensure they delivered the client’s needs. Moreover, they were highly communicative throughout the project.
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 chairman of the board of a nonprofit.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Arounda? I hired Arounda to design the UI/UX of our mobile app and admin panel.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement? Arounda helped us with the wireframing and flow of the app. We shared some of the work we’d done prior to the engagement. We had an earlier version of the app, so we shared those screens with them.
Moreover, we shared a promo video we put together and the color palette we were hoping to use. Our team gave them quite a bit of information alongside the website that was already up and running. For user personas, we already had an ideal subject in mind, and the team helped flesh that out a bit more. They created the designs using Figma. What is the team composition? We worked with a project coordinator, Anastasia (UI/UX designer), and a couple of other team members. A sales representative was involved, alongside two other designers. How did you come to work with Arounda? We found Arounda through Google. How much have you invested with them? Our total investment was around $11,000. What is the status of this engagement? The project lasted from September–November 2023.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? In terms of discovery and conceptualization, Arounda presented great ideas. In building the designs, they were quite good at working through the app’s flow and ensuring we got everything we needed for the UX. They did quite a bit of work for the app’s UI and went beyond the initial scope of the project. Overall, we were happy with the designs and how they turned out. How did Arounda perform from a project management standpoint? Arounda’s project management style was great. We mutually agreed to extend a little bit, but they did everything that they said they’d do. The project coordinator was good at communicating. There were a few moments where we were unclear on some things, but they provided clarity and ensured everything was done. Meanwhile, Anastasia had a great work ethic, and she always went the extra mile to ensure we were happy. To communicate, we used Slack and emails. What did you find most impressive about them? Their communication was extremely strong. Are there any areas they could improve? No, there weren’t any. As time went on, they gained a clearer understanding of our goals and intentions for the project. They did what we needed them to do. Do you have any advice for potential customers? Clearly define the scope of work, and ensure that it’s documented. Make sure you’re hitting the milestones within that scope of work.
