BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the owner of a software company offering a Planning and Design tool for Smart Home system integrators.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Baniwal Infotech?

Our old website was made with wordpress and an old page builder which did not work well any more. Every time we wanted to update something then something else was broken. Also every time our old Theme was updated then our ordering page broke. We wanted a modern look web page with a page builder that would go out of date in the near future. Baniwal could offer us that design with our own custom theme which ensure us that it will not break the order process page when we update something.

SOLUTION

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

We received an offer from them with the right key words like custom theme for Elementor page builder. After checking them out on Clutch and other online reviews we decided to go with them.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

At first we described the style we wanted on our pages, then we received some mock-ups for the main page, we asked for some changes and received new mock-ups. This iteration went on for some weeks until we had some mock-ups for the most of the pages.

At that point they build the website and we could follow the process and comment when needed. We then added our new text which required some new modules which they created and finalized for us. Due to an exhibition we wanted to go live with the website even though it was not fully completed. Baniwal have without any question continued to finalize our website.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

I only met with one person from Baniwal but I think there were one designer and one programmer as well in the team.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The website turned out better than expected and people have commented that it looks very professional.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

I had one contact that was very responsive. We communicated via Skype and it was easy to follow up on tasks that needed to be done.

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

I liked the fact that there never was an argument if this or that was included in the deal or not. We ordered a complete new website and they made all the pages we wanted, no questions asked.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Some SEO information was not transferred from our old web page. They corrected it later but I would have liked to have a check list where they described what they have done for each page. This would have given me a better overview of what we have done in terms of SEO.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm the principal owner of a web and software development firm.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Baniwal Infotech, and what were your goals?

Our agency was growing and our leased employees were becoming strained. To maintain the growth curve, as sought out an additional agency to augment our staff and keep larger projects moving forward while carrying the weight of new assignments.

SOLUTION

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

We received a number of solicitations and screened numerous outsourcing candidates, they seemed to be the best fit and were willing to work within our own agency's culture.

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

There were numerous projects worked on, varying from web development, API integrations, UX/UI evaluations, technical SEO, and PHP web applications for business and industrial clients. With provided project management and guidance from our firm to supervise and lead the work, we were able to have successful conclusions for our projects.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We worked with one of the agency owners as a liaison for resources, a senior developer, and a project coordinator to execute our plans.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The deliverables were completed to industry standards, within the timeframes provided, and their team was able to work with our Git repositories, servers, and all other collaborative systems. Clients were generally pleased with the outcomes of the projects and felt comfortable providing additional projects under the same scope.

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

Their owner and project coordinator are very responsive and they respect timelines, they've never missed a deadline. They integrated well with our project management tools, company email, chat, and more specialized platforms. As an augmented workforce with a narrow scope, they did this quite well. Their English skills are very good and there were never any problems interfacing with us or our clients directly.

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

They are the right fit for us due to the array of talent they provide to handle a wider range of programming tasks. You feel that you're working with a lone individual, yet it's a small team.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Not necessarily, I would like to see them maintain that smaller feel where they have in-house individuals to lease to you, not a farmed-distributed approach that many others like them take. With a farmed approach, quality and consistency is lacking, but Baniwal was able to overcome this internally by maintaining a small, controllable core of talent. That's important for their continued success.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm Digital Marketing Specialist. We are international accounting and advisory firm with offices in Australia and China.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Baniwal Infotech, and what were your goals?

We wanted to build an online presence for our China business, we hired this team to design and develop a WordPress site for us. By doing this, we were hoping to create strong online presence, increase website traffic and improve lead generation by the end of the year.

SOLUTION

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

We searched online for web developers and shortlisted 3. After initial conversation with them, we chose this vendor based on their previous projects, design skills, and cost estimate.

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

We had an initial meeting to discuss our key goals and objectives. From there, the team delivered staging project with nice mockups for our website. After few corrections, their team designed and developed a WordPress site. They updated content and images, downloadable marketing collateral and adjusted colours to represent our brand, as we requested. They also created contact form, thank you page so we can track lead generation, contact forms for downloading our marketing collateral, etc.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

A project manager, Rachit, was our main point of contact throughout the process. There were also a few developers and designer working behind the scenes.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Clients love the updated design, and they now have a better understanding of our services. In weeks to come, we are hoping to see increase in traffic and leads coming through, as this website is launched just recently.

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

We had daily communications with their project manager, who communicated with the rest of the team. They were very responsive, professional, and friendly. They would jump on any requests we had in 24hrs timeframe. We used Zoom, WhatsUp, and dropbox to coordinate, and they worked well with me.

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

They delivered a professional site that’s easy to update with many great features & downloadable material. I do have previous experience with WordPress, but on any questions & uncertainties I’ve had, Rachit was very responsive and helped to understand how to manage the website in future.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

When we first launched, they were couple of minor issues with 1 link, but Rachit fixed the issue in less than 24 hrs.

BACKGROUND

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Baniwal Infotech, and what were your goals?

We hired Baniwal Infotech to migrate our web sites from Magento 1 to Magento 2

SOLUTION

How did you select Baniwal Infotech and what were the deciding factors?

I was approached by Rachit directly. He was very good at introducing himself, his business and how he could help me. At the time I was very busy and not ready to make a decision. Rachit was patient and would touch base with me from time to time and eventually I chose him for the project.

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

I am not knowledgeable enough to go into details but Baniwal Infotech did the entire process of migrating our entire web site which is a fully e-commerce retail site from Magento 1 to Magento 2.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

Directly contact it was only Rachit but I am sure there was a prepared team working with him.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

I had another web site which I hired another company to do the same service. The other company had much more of a hard time delivering the same project. I was very impressed with the final result Baniwal delivered since there were much fewer glitches and I had to get involved much less than I did with the other company.

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

The communication was very positive, polite, efficient and I was very impressed with how professional everything was.

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

Everything was impressive! The entire process was pleasant and my goals were fully achieved.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Sometimes I noticed the time zone difference was a bit challenging between India and the USA but I had not been promised anything different so I cannot complain at all.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the owner of a digital media agency that provides IT and web development services for a number of different clients.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Baniwal Infotech, and what were your goals?

We had a client with an outdated website that was looking for a design refresh. When we looked at the project it turned out to be much more complicated than we expected.

The site was dated but also the e-commerce aspects were dated and suffering from a long list of issues. We wanted to create a compelling front-end UX/UI but also needed to update the catalog and back-end processes.

SOLUTION

How did you select Baniwal Infotech and what were the deciding factors?

I was explaining the challenge to a friend of mine. I was not sure I could get everything they wanted with the site, especially the back-end work. He suggested I reach out to Baniwal. He had used them for a project so I worked up a list of requirements.

I was not sure if they would be up to the task so asked a lot of questions before hiring. In each case they had provided a good response and the quote was inline with expectations.

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

The job was to build a new front-end e-commerce experience that would allow for good usability for a fairly large catalog of items. In addition, the client needed a way to manage changes on the backend for new items, inventory levels, shipping, etc.

The client did not want a traditional WordPress or Shopify site. Baniwal helped me decide on Laravel for the back-end system and a custom front-end in React and Node.js.

We settled on a JavaScript based e-commerce utility. The result was a highly performant front-end site with a secure back-end management layer. We mostly exchanged emails during the initial discussions.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

I only dealt with the project manager and she handled all of the internal communication with the team. It was super easy.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Client was very pleased with the site. The design came out great and most importantly the UX/UI was also much improved. Due to the tech stack the website was also very performant.

We are not following up with this client on his ongoing sales or marketing so in terms of a boost is sales we are not sure. We did make a few tweaks to some of the design elements and product filters based on client feedback but it was fairly minor stuff.

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

They were good about providing project updates but sometimes I had to ask for more clarity and examples. Their project timeline was on the mark and the project came in on budget.

We had regular touchpoint meetings setup on Monday's. Each week I'd have my punch list of deliverables for the week. Our PM was good about providing updates and timelines. We mostly used email and Slack for our communications.

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

They had enough experience where I didn't have to explain in much detail. They seemed to know what I wanted. In some cases they made suggestions I had not thought of. It appeared that they knew the space well.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

There were a couple of times where things were lost in email translation and I had to provide a visual for clarity. I'm thinking if they would have had a virtual whiteboard or collab space some of this back and forth could have been avoided. The project status reports could have had more detail but they were sufficient.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am a PMP certified project management professional providing IT services in support of federal and local government clients.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Baniwal Infotech?

My website was created in 2013 and it was quite rudimentary. It was functional, but at the time I did not possess the requisite skills to improve the UX/UI and this was problematic. Consequently, it was difficult to gain new clients.

What were your goals for this project?

I was so happy to make the acquaintance of Ajay and Rachit, who provided me with an end product that is engaging, functional, and aesthetically pleasing.

They are responsive, deliver according to schedule and at the cost quoted, and are extremely patient with regard to change requests. I highly recommend them! I use them for all of my web design and mobile app projects.

SOLUTION

How did you select Baniwal Infotech?

They contacted me through LinkedIn. After several discussions, I was happy to work with them on an initial project. They did such a good job that we subsequently worked together on 4 more projects, each more outstanding than the other.

Deciding factor was responsiveness, professionalism, in-house skills, ease of payment, etc.

Describe the project in detail.

There were several Wordpress, Shopify, PHP projects which they delivered for clients with disparate needs. They applied project management principles to guide the kick-off, implementation, and delivery of each project, informed by the unique requirements of each client.

We utilized Smartsheet to track project deliverables, to manage scope and budget, and to update the client in a timely manner.

All projects were delivered on time, in-budget, and per expectation.

What was the team composition?

I have personally worked with two executives, two project managers, and six developers with unique skills and expertise including Reactive, Wordpress, Shopify, PHP, and other technology solutions.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The following websites were developed by Baniwal for clients:

• Stranpoint.com
• ZimFarmProject.org
• NahmiasBooks.com

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Even though there was a time difference, they were easy to work with. They worked late hours to accommodate my schedule, often presenting deliverables for review and consideration in the early morning hours.

The workflow and communication were seamless, utilizing project management tools like Smartsheet and other tools such as email, Slack, and WhatsApp.

They were extremely clear about the work being performed, managed against a schedule, heard, and considered additional requests. They were excellent about managing expectation by not over committing or under-pricing projects.

Tools: Smartsheet, Slack, WhatsApp, Email Communication:

Excellent Timelines: On-time and in budget

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their professionalism, excellent communication, technology acumen, ability to listen to and translate clients' expectations into tangible best of class products. The relationship which we developed was trustworthy.

I had no qualms about letting them have access to the backend of client systems and websites, and never once worried about any data or security breach.

Are there any areas for improvement?

If there was any improvement it would be for selfish reasons, I would have liked for them to have a Squarespace developer.

I have worked with many companies, but Baniwal is the best. They have talented, professional, and highly-skilled developers who deliver projects on-time.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am a freelance LAMP developer and a director of NishRaj Ltd.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Baniwal Infotech, and what were your goals?

Due to over load of projects and a new client asking for help, I reached out to Ajay from Baniwal for additional support.

SOLUTION

How did you select Baniwal Infotech and what were the deciding factors?

Working with third party companies can be hard so I was testing the waters with Baniwal in terms of service, costs, speed and detail. They described themself as WP experts, so wanted to see how we could work together.

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

Scope was a WP project so that they were able to manage the website themself once it was up and running. Client had used WP before so WP it was.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

From Baniwal side, it was Moni as the developer and Ajay as the PM.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Feedback was good from myself in terms of what I saw delivered from design implementation to functionality required from client. All was achieved and where it could not, Baniwal were able to explain why and being a developer myself, I know they were not fobbing me off.

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

Communication was via Skype (calls and messages) from Baniwal to myself and via email and Google Docs for tracking tasks and signoff.

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

Their experience with WordPress was impressive. It was excellent and it appeared easy to them, whereas I would have struggled to do it alone.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Hmmm, I did not find any difficultly tbh, so could not really answer this.
