DNAMIC

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the VP of Engineering for Reibus International. We are an anonymous independent marketplace for buying and selling industrial materials. I am in charge of product delivery within Reibus.

For what projects/services did your company hire DNAMIC?

We needed qualified senior engineers to augment our teams in our newest products, Finance and Logistics, to help me grow the teams quickly.

How did you select this agency and what were the deciding factors?

There were four factors I was looking for in a partner:

• First, I was looking for high quality senior talent we could get quickly, not junior or mid level.
• Second, I was looking for expertise in Low Code QA Automation tools we were looking to roll out.
• Third, I wanted to find a strategic partner that would grow with our growing needs.
• Finally, I needed people that could solve problems, not just do what they were told to. Dnamic checked all of these boxes.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

Within 30 days they provided 4 senior engineers to start working on the teams. We had problems with one of them and were able to replace this person quickly so our business did not miss a beat. Once on the team, they were able to provide senior level engineering and oversight on these teams quickly.

A few months later I asked for help rolling out our Low Code QA Automation tool and they were able to provide me experts for this. In addition, they helped with the planning and rollout of this new tool throughout my organization.

Describe the recruitment process in detail.

For all the people they were able to provide the resumes and strengths of all their people. We took all the people they gave us quickly as we have learned that you really need to get your hands dirty to know if someone will work. When it was found out someone did not work, they gave us a new person and we made it successful quickly.

Can you share any outcomes from the engagement that demonstrate progress or success?

We pulled up these teams in a 30 day period, and had MVP products out within 3 months. Their engineers make up about 1/3 of each of these teams with Reibus employees making up the rest.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The workflow is great. We integrate the teams directly onto our team and there is little difference between what a Reibus employee does and a Dnamic employee.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

DNAMIC seems to have a niche where they have great access to senior-level talent, and they can bring them in quickly. Most offshore firms can provide junior or mid level talent. I always struggle with senior level talent. However, when I needed help for my Low Code QA Automation project they were able to provide me the people I needed for that as well. This level of specific expertise is great to have in a partner.

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

They provide great value for the cost, but I do pay a premium to get access to this level of talent. I wish it was cheeper, but given the access to high quality talent and expertise, I truly am getting what I pay for.

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the founder of Equine Simplified - a company that supports clients from individual horse owners to barn managers with sophisticated competition or breeding operations.

For what projects/services did your company hire DNAMIC Artificial Intelligence?

We had been working with another company, and DNAMIC helped us finalize the commercial and technical launch. It is not easy to take over another companies unfinished work, yet DNAMIC finished up on the code and migrated to a more robust architecture for deployment.

They also focused on building our marketing plan and finalizing our launch content. Next phase will be building out future offerings and continuing to improve our UX.

What were your goals for this project?

Since this is a new service offering to market, our goal was to gain adoption by the horse community to help them simplify their life and focus on the horse...not the paperwork. Our objective is to build a robust platform and gain user subscriptions per our financial plan.

How did you select DNAMIC Artificial Intelligence?

DNAMIC was a referral based on work they had done in the engineering construction environment. I was introduced to this company through colleagues and thought they were an interesting fit for the project.

They had successfully navigated other "take-over" projects which was critical in my decision making. Also, they had strong work processes that I am familiar with from my engineering background.

Describe the project in detail.

The project was divided into two aspects...technical development and marketing. On the technical side, we had a systematic approach to allow time for DNAMIC to get up to speed on the code and conduct a risk assessment.

They defined a new architecture and built out the appropriate systems. Meanwhile, DNAMIC prepared a comprehensive marketing strategy that remained flexible based on estimated launch dates.

Although they knew nothing of the horse industry, they applied proven processes to get us to go live.

What was the team composition?

At the onset, we were assigned a project manager, developer, and QA. Additionally, we had amazing interaction with their CTO and technical lead to advise us on the preferred architecture.

From the marketing side, we were assigned one point of contact, but a team of 4-5 attends our weekly calls and is actively engaged on various aspects of our SEO and SEM

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

After being very delayed in going live from the original developer, DNAMIC enabled us to go live. Further, they offer a very flexible approach. They are not trying to reinvent the wheel and redesign what is working. They are methodically developing epics and sprints for my future developments.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The communication is fantastic. For the technical team, we have daily 15 minute stand up calls to discuss any key topics. We schedule other time for deeper dives.

For the marketing team, our cadence is weekly calls, but also interim calls to further discuss any key topics. Further, the responsiveness has been amazing from ad hoc texts or emails.

They gave me access to JIRA and are setting up a custom dashboard to accommodate my preferences. We also use Trello and a file sharing system to manage project workflows and content.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The most impressive aspect is the ability to handle a take-over project. This was my biggest fear, and DNAMIC was simply fabulous to work with. We discussed the strategy to handle this transition and really didn't lose much time in the implementation.

The other aspect that I didn't appreciate until after working with them further is the integration of the technical development and marketing. I can have a great product technically, but if I don't reach the audience, then it doesn't matter.

They truly act as a partner.

Are there any areas for improvement?

At this time, I am completely satisfied. We successfully navigated a tricky transition from the former company to DNAMIC and they have been fantastic. They are truly transparent and I can't wait for what the future holds!

I am the CIO for Monin Inc. Of the Americas. We are a premium brand in gourmet flavorings for beverage and culinary applications. 

For what projects/services did your company hire DNAMIC Artificial Intelligence?

We have hired Dnamic to handle several projects over the last 5 years. In respect to this review we hired them to build a mobile app for lead management.

What were your goals for this project?

Our company engages in many tradeshows throughout the business year. The number of leads that come in through these channels is significant. So our goal was to create a unique digital journey that would not only capture the lead but engage the customer and capture their interests in our products.

How did you select DNAMIC Artificial Intelligence?

We originally hired a local company to help us build out our requirements and design requirements. We thought a local US company would understand what we were trying to accomplish. Once the documents were completed we shared them with Dnamic to get a quote for the actual build.

Two days later they came back to us and turned what was an OK app design into something relevant and a leading edge proto type. They took the project and created something special.

What was the team composition?

Our internal team was 3 from marketing, 2 developers, 1 project manager and myself. We worked with the Dnamic team which included the CEO of Dnamic, CTO, a project manager and two developers. We had a great relationship with there team and we're always working toward the same goal.

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

After completing the app we have reduced the sales teams time in managing leads by 60%. The app has created a customer journey that engages the customer and uses AI to guide and recommend ideas for them along the way. The app captures there likes and interests sends it to our CRM and automatically sends samples and product information.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We worked seemlessly with Dnamic and the development team. They utilize agile methodology and this was very affective.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

It has always been their creativity that stands out with me.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Some might say they want it done faster but I believe great things evolve as you build them and therfore take longer. In the end there is greater reward.

I'm the Director of Engineering for a SaaS company.

For what projects/services did your company hire DNAMIC Artificial Intelligence?

We needed to rapidly scale our development and QA teams in order to deliver value for our clients in a growing market.

How did you select this agency and what were the deciding factors?

With many challenges in staffing development and QA locally, we initially expanded our search across the US. When continuing to find a shortage of talented developers and escalating costs we decided to explore a nearshore options. We screened 9 separate companies across LATAM, and Dnamic stood out amongst the companies for their deep technical roots, commitment to a true partnership and dedication to their staff.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

So far, we've staffed 11 development and QA resources through Dnamic in the last 4 months. This includes full stack .NET SaaS developers and QA testers across our SaaS and Mobile Products. While these resources are fully supported by Dnamic, they operate as an integrated part of our broader team.

Describe the recruitment process in detail.

Dnamic has a deep technical expertise and is highly skilled at finding resources that fit our needs. We simply submit a job description, and Dnamic brings us any clarifying questions. From there, they have been rapidly able to deliver top tier candidates. While I don't have exact metrics, I'm sure we've hired over 50% of the candidates presented.

Can you share any outcomes from the engagement that demonstrate progress or success?

Every Dnamic resource we've added has been high quality. They are fully engaged members of our team, have extremely positive attitudes, are able to ramp up quickly and speak very highly of working for Dnamic.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Fantastic. The Dnamic management team stays very engaged in the ongoing business. I have near daily email communication with them regarding ongoing searches and logistics. In addition, we touch base regularly via video conference to discuss the state of our business and potential future direction. In addition to being a high-quality organization, the management team is made up of great people who are a pleasure to work with.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

They're roots as technologists. They are willing to go the extra mile to support us. And the level of partnership they bring to the table.
