RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?

Since we are a SaaS company, our product is key. This is what Cloudoki successfully build together with us. Searching for new resources and hiring them is also the key for the continuation of our product.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

PM was done according to the SCRUM methodology with a SCRUM master taking care of the development team in close combination with the product owner and myself. It was done very efficiently as there were every now and then very hard deadlines.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The flexibility in combination with their knowledge. Next to that, it was always fun to meet them and have some drinks together... they pay a lot of attention to the culture in the company and this can be seen going out with the team, which was always very relaxed, but again, when working they react very professionally and always go the extra mile to deliver.

Are there any areas for improvement?

None for me.
