Cosmonaut Technologies Pvt Ltd

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m a software architect that used to be a software developer. Now, I’m taking on contracts for web development, app development, consultancy, R&D, and source code development. I’ve been working in this domain for over 15 years.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Cosmonaut Technologies Pvt Ltd?

I contacted their team to execute code, leaving me time to take care of the architecture, code review, and deployment.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

They’ve been working with Laravel, PHP, and general frontend development work. We created a mobile app that included two management dashboards. They also developed a solution for utility subscription billing. It includes a dashboard that allows customers to check their water and electricity consumption. After I architected a wireframe and designed the product, they executed on the code.  

What is the team composition?

We have a project manager and 4–5 developers. 

How did you come to work with Cosmonaut Technologies Pvt Ltd?

I originally found them on Upwork. After interviewing them, I found that they would be the best fit for the work I needed. We had a Skype interview, and they proposed a good solution. 

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent under $5,000 on the project. 

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in November 2019, and the collaboration is ongoing. I’m working currently on a management app that I’m engaging them to help with.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Compared to other vendors, they deliver quality service and are consistently willing to provide support. Overall, this has been a good experience. The solution delivered is still functioning without any crashes, glitches, or security concerns.

How did Cosmonaut Technologies Pvt Ltd perform from a project management standpoint?

I would like our project manager to spend a little more time coordinating and following up with his team. Sometimes, I have to push him to have his developers correct bugs. Other than that, project management went well. They’re strong communicators. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

They’re honest and execute quickly when needed. Instantly communicating and correcting bugs, the team worked quickly and remained proactive. They’re able to understand requirements and deliver products that meet them.  

Are there any areas they could improve?

I’d appreciate more attention being given to project management. However, they execute very well. We don’t often have to explain ourselves more than once. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

So far, I’m satisfied and recommend them. They’re flexible with payments and timelines. It’s rare to find a team that executes as they do.
