The client submitted this review online.
BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the CEO of Tibalo Aps, which is a company that provide online education.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Codeus, and what were your goals?
We hired Codeus to work on a system that we launched back in 2015. We have had a lot of different developers involved over the years, so the code was not the most accessible. The main goal was to look at bugfixes and implementation of new features.
SOLUTION
How did you select Codeus and what were the deciding factors?
Codeus was recommended to us by a developer that we previously used, but who was no longer available to help us. We found it difficult to find local developers with the proper experience to work with our system.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
We have used Codeus for our ongoing development of the system. Our system has been live since 2015 and we receive constant input and feedback from our userbase. The system is running on the php-based framework Symfony that Codeus specializes in.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
We have 2 full stack developers from Codeus.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
We have been able to deliver on requested features and thus have a much more mature system thanks to the help of Codeus.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timelines.
The communication with the developers is great. We have bi-daily online meetings and everything is happening according to the schedule. In case of critical work the developers have been able to assist out of regular office hours and resolve the issues quickly.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
The team is hard-working and dedicated.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
Nothing I can think of.

Codeus oversees a furniture startup’s internal API layer that links ERP and MRP systems. They ensure the communication layer’s functionality. The team also helps with payment and merchant accounts.
Codeus’ quick work has enabled the client to make daily deployments and scale improvements. They not only communicate well and adhere to the schedule but also maintain an impressive understanding of a complex system and the client’s operations. Their dependability makes for a long-term engagement.
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
Joybird is an online furniture retailer and manufacturer that offers mid-century and vintage modern furniture, among other things. We’re a startup, and I’m the managing director. I oversee mostly the tech and development of the company.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Codeus?
Our in-house team developed our customer-facing platform’s front- and backends. We also created our own ERP (enterprise resource planning) and MRP (material requirements planning) systems. However, we needed help linking our two sides, namely our consumer- and operations-facing processes. We hired Codeus to help us with our internal API layer.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Codeus is in charge of our internal API system. They make sure that all of the components of our systems are functioning by ensuring that the communication layer works well using Caravel. The team uses other technologies such as PHP, JavaScript, React, and Zend Framework. They also help with our payment and merchant accounts.
What is the team composition?
There are three developers who work with us.
How did you come to work with Codeus?
I asked one of my developers to look for people who could help us. He found Codeus, and he interviewed and reviewed their work. In the end, I trusted his opinion. We also selected Codeus because of the quality of their code and communication capabilities.
How much have you invested with them?
We have already paid them $200,000
What is the status of this engagement?
Our collaboration started in January 2019, and it's ongoing.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
There’s not a formal way of measuring their outputs, but they quickly finish things. As a result, we deploy daily, and we change things rapidly.
How did Codeus perform from a project management standpoint?
They’re doing great, especially given that we have a complex platform that entails an extreme learning curve. They’ve been able to learn and operate while keeping on schedule. We also use Jira to plan, track, and manage our development projects.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Their communication skills are impressive. Additionally, they are extremely dependable. We can easily reach them during emergencies.
Are there any areas they could improve?
I don't think that they have any areas they could improve on. However, I just want to note that their improvement has come through time, and they continue to learn our platforms with more experience. Moreover, they continue to understand our operations as well. In that sense, I’m pleased with the service they provide.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Everybody’s situation is unique, but just try to set up weekly or daily calls. I think that’s the best practice for any type of development.
