Please describe the scope of their involvement in greater detail.
Brainvire is building our app and website, which will allow our company to work with different organizations, including e-commerce platforms and different online business directories.
The platform has evolved into a lot more than a Magento-based e-commerce site, which was the starting point. We have combined with another company, which is building cashback and other programs. There is a lot of integration between our e-commerce site and the other company's platform. Brainvire is helping us on that front as well.
Our partner company is combining its PHP-based solutions with other systems like Magento, in order to create one backend interface. With it, we will be able to signup organizations looking to sell products on our site, and there will also be a directory portion through which they will post information and send out mobile notifications.
All of these components, including our mobile app, will be integrated into a Yelp-style site featuring reviews for products and businesses. The review portion is being developed by Brainvire, as is the app. I believe that it's using AngularJS on the frontend.
The cashback element involves building out something beyond a standard Magento plug-in. Brainvire will be developing a custom piece using PHP, Magento, and Symfony.
How did you come to work with Brainvire?
Brainvire was recommended to us by a friend of the owner. He had done some work with Brainvire before, and they'd also worked with a few other decent companies in Salt Lake City. Upon that recommendation, we chose Brainvire.
Could you provide a sense of the size of this initiative in financial terms?
The cost of Brainvire's work has been between $75,000 and $150,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with Brainvire in March 2015. The development is ongoing.
Brainvire’s team demonstrated technical prowess with the most advanced technologies, as well as a firm commitment to client satisfaction and project management.
