BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CTO of Naiz Fit. We offer a product for size recommendation in online e-commerce sites for garments. We’ve produced a size form inquiry that asks for weight and height and recommends the user the correct size in the garment they’re seeing.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Digis?

We were developing new products around size recommendations. One was a smartphone application, so we needed help with the whole backend development process.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We initially hired two backend developers from Digis. We’ve onboarded them to be on our team, integrating them into our business, culture, and processes. Once they were onboarded, we began our project. We didn’t plan for them to take on the project. Digis resources work for us inside the team.

What is the team composition?

We’ve hired five people, including a mobile app developer, a frontend developer, and a DevOps engineer.

How did you come to work with Digis?

They contacted us. We started the hiring process for an engineer with experience in Scala. A partner company focused on hiring people for this technology contacted us and told us that Digis could hire a team for us.

How much have you invested with them?

We pay $40–$45 per hour per person. The total is around $40,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We began working with them in July 2023, and the partnership will be done in January 2024. We’ll continue with the DevOps engineer, but we have to reduce costs in the company, so we’ll end the relationship with the other four teammates once the project is done.

Maybe we’ll hire them if we need more development work in the future.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The first impact is that Digis has been able to develop our application. The second one is that the DevOps engineer has helped us reduce the costs of infrastructure and hosting, which has improved our systems and infrastructure. Finally, Digis has shown us how to manage a development team to evolve and become stronger. Now we know the kind of profiles we need to develop these products.

How did Digis perform from a project management standpoint?

Digis found candidates quickly and did an excellent job in the hiring process. The project went slow in the beginning due to a culture mismatch. We didn’t do things like they did. However, Digis soon corrected it and provided us with a project manager, which helped a lot to streamline the process and make everything work.

Overall, they’ve performed at a higher standard. They’ve delivered on time and done much better. We communicate through weekly meetings to see how people are performing.

Are there any employees from the service provider's team that you would like to give a shout-out to in this review?

The best performance is from the DevOps engineer. He’s overperformed, and we’re pretty happy with him.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They perform very well and are good at finding people. Moreover, the project manager is awesome, and we have a great relationship with her and the DevOps engineer.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Initially, we were looking to hire people for a long-term relationship. Digis was unprepared for this; they’ve managed to have a team for the project, but they don’t staff people for long periods.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I recommend starting the relationship with clear objectives. Also, hear their advice on what you need to make the project work. Digis knows what they do and how to build a team that can perform and support your work; they’ve done it many times before.

Digis delivered software on schedules, the quality of their work and code was unusually high. Their project manager oversaw the coordination of deliveries, quality engineering and testing, as well as delivery very effectively. When I had outliers that were usually "surprises", often Digis would adapt and incorporate in delivery but was always truthful in pushing back if they could not make a desired ask. I pushed them hard, and they responded with incredible work ethic, quality, and delivery.

Unusual levels of very talented both software and QA engineers at very competitive rates. Their forthrightness and honesty in working with me and letting me know if a deliverable was at risk or could not meet my asks rather than just saying "Yes" like most others.

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

I should have funded a Configuration Management engineer to help the team.

I’m the CEO of SENDY INC. We’re an online platform that allows users to sell and buy outdoor sports equipment. We’re based in the US and soon to be live in Canada.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Digis?

We needed to develop our mobile application and website. I believe outsourcing development projects have many benefits, including having different levels of expertise and accessing a bigger team.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Digis has designed and developed our Android and iOS applications. They’ve designed the app’s UI/UX and are currently working on our website’s development. 

Initially, we had several discovery calls with Digis’ project manager. We had an initial design idea that we shared with Digis, and we also had our user personas identified. We knew our market and had a clear idea of what we wanted to accomplish regarding design. Digis has used Figma for design. 

Digis has developed our mobile app using PHP, Python, Laravel, React Native, React.js, Next.js, and TypeScript. Our app is now live, and Digis is currently working on our site’s development, which will have the same functionalities as the app. 

We’ve asked Digis to optimize our site for mobile and desktop compatibility, and they’re using Google Cloud Platform for hosting. Digis also provides us with ongoing maintenance. 

What is the team composition?

I work with five teammates from Digis: a project manager, a designer, a web developer, front- and backend developer, and QA specialist. 

How did you come to work with Digis?

I found Digis through online research. We were looking for a company that outsourced developers primarily from Eastern Europe. I interviewed around 30 different companies and felt confident with Digis’ team skills. I selected Digis after having three calls with their project manager.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve invested around $420,000 with Digis.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with Digis in November 2021, and our partnership is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Digis’ work and infrastructure are fantastic. They understand our needs and are great at outsourcing developers. All our developers are based in Ukraine, and their work quality is excellent. Digis’ developers have hit every milestone and goal we’ve required, and they’ve done it during the Russian Invasion of Ukraine, which is really impressive. 

Digis has created a beautiful app, and we’ve had a collaborative process. Our app mobile app has been downloaded 15,000 times. We also have over $1 million worth of gear listed on our platform and an average of 2,200 daily visitors.

How did Digis perform from a project management standpoint?

Digis stays on budget, although our budget has changed during our engagement. Digis also meets deadlines and works quickly. I thought it’d be impossible to develop our product as fast. 

Digis’ project manager is communicative and understands our needs. We communicate daily through WhatsApp and use Confluence and Jira for project management.  

What did you find most impressive about them?

I’m most impressed with Digis’ management skills and dedication because they work at any time. I’ve contacted Digis’ developers at 1 a.m. of their local time, and they’re still working. Digis’ team dedication is hard to find. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

All Digis’ team has improved during our engagement. I can’t think of anything else for them to improve. When we’ve had issues, they’ve addressed them correctly. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I recommend being very clear about your project’s requirements and scope. You need to understand the product you want to develop, the timeframe, and the budget. Having an idea is easy, but the challenge is to communicate your idea to a development team. The more clear you can be with each goal and sprint, the better results you’ll have.
