Emvigo Technologies Ltd

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the co-founder and managing director of a German-based startup that formed last year. We’re developing an AR application for smart devices.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Emvigo Technologies Ltd?

We’re a very small team in Germany and needed additional capacity to develop the product, in particular building a scalable, robust backend.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Emvigo Technologies Ltd is developing the backend of our AR app as well as some parts of the frontend using React Native. The app is built for both iOS and Android mobile devices as well as potentially for smart glasses. The backend includes a dashboard to place the AR objects globally.

One of our co-founders, who’s a UI/UX expert, created the initial designs, and based on which, Emvigo helped us to create the wireframes. The whole project will take six to nine months.

What is the team composition?

We have roughly nine people supporting us including a business analyst and the CTO.

How did you come to work with Emvigo Technologies Ltd?

I’d worked with them previously through another startup I co-founded. I had been introduced to them when I worked in R&D for Nokia in Germany by a colleague who was from southern India where they’re located.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in September 2018, and it’s ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Emvigo makes every effort to help us. They have extensive domain knowledge. In cases where they lack the requisite knowledge, they quickly adapt and learn. We can reach out to them 24/7. They’re friendly, supportive, positive, and proactive—great to work with, overall.

How did Emvigo Technologies Ltd perform from a project management standpoint?

They assigned a scrum master for our project. We work with project management tools like Jira, Confluence, and Bitbucket. We communicate via email and Skype meetings. They meet internally every day, and we have every-other-day meetings with them. We have people from multiple locations on our calls. The communication is very smooth.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They have a lot of domain knowledge, they’re cost-competitive, and they deliver. They quickly identify issues and solve them. They may lack a little design thinking or creative design compared to Germany companies, but that’s not a problem for us as we have our own designer on board.  

Are there any areas they could improve?

Not really. Maybe they could proactively study upcoming technologies like hardware and AR for us. But I don't know what they could do more.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I work for a talent agency that represents actors and theatrical talent.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Emvigo Technologies Ltd?

We brought on Sanjay (CEO, Emvigo Technologies) and his team to design a WordPress website and maintain its backend.

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted a functional, user-friendly website to promote our clients.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We found them via word of mouth. The IT director of another of our vendors recommended them to us.

Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.

After having an in-depth conversation about our requirements and goals, we provided them with PDFs of designs we created in-house. They then implemented them into WordPress. We provided feedback, and they affected those changes until we were satisfied.  

What was the team composition?

Sanjay was our main point of contact, but we also had several conversations with members of his team. They communicated to us through one person on our side, which made our workflow easy.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

It’s now much easier to promote our clients to the general public and industry insiders and find them work. The new online presence has also helped attract additional clients.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

It was impressive and efficient. We encountered issues launching our site linked to our previous hosting company, but Emvigo was incredibly helpful and patient. They ensured all our problems were resolved.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The promptness and efficiency of their CEO’s communication were reassuring. As previously mentioned, their perseverance and assistance in fixing external issues was very helpful. They were friendly throughout the project.

Are there any areas for improvement?

There is precious little to improve. Overall, we were impressed and satisfied with their service. My only recommendation would be to properly research appropriate hosting companies. They initially recommended a service that turned out to be incapable of meeting our requirements. Though it wasn’t Emvigo’s fault, they might have been able to avoid this with extra research.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

As a professional, I help people step into their full potential. Through my website, I offer services to a global audience.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Emvigo Technologies Ltd?

I hired Emvigo Technologies Ltd to design my website.

What were your goals for this project?

My goal for the engagement was to create an easy-to-use website that would help me energetically connect to my customers.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

Most vendors will design a website based on what you ask for, which is not always what you really need. The team at Emvigo Technologies Ltd spent time clarifying what I truly wanted so they could design a site that aligned with my vision.

Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.

Using my guidelines as a basis, Emvigo Technologies Ltd designed my entire website. They completed the project from start to finish.

What was the team composition?

I met Sanjay (Cofounder and CEO, Emvigo Technologies Ltd) in the UK and held an initial meeting with him. Emvigo Technologies Ltd assigned me a remote point of contact to manage the entire project. We regularly held meetings via Skype so they could better understand my ideal requirements at each stage of the project. Even though they have experts in many areas on their team, I always communicated with the project manager directly.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Emvigo Technologies Ltd delivered a website I find beautiful. It shares the type of work I do with the world. I often receive compliments on the design from my customers. The site they created showcases me and my offerings perfectly.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

From start to finish, the project was carefully managed and flowed well. Even after the website went live, Emvigo Technologies Ltd completed little tweaks I wanted within a very short timeframe.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

What impressed me most about Emvigo Technologies Ltd was the level of service and care they gave to my project. I never felt like I was just another customer. They genuinely cared about doing their best for me and my business.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the director of a UK-based development company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Emvigo Technologies Ltd?

We wanted to develop a patient safety application and needed additional help.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Collaboratively, we built the web app on open-source technology using PHP, Apache, and MySQL. We designed graphics with CSS and HTML5, and built the charts and dashboards with D3.js and Chart.js. We also used jQuery and JX. The team continues to provide support.

What is the team composition?

I work with the company’s directors and provide direct feedback as needed.

How did you come to work with Emvigo Technologies Ltd?

I found them while working on other products. I tried two different companies and Emvigo Technologies Ltd was the better choice. They specialized in security and had experience relevant to my future goals.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in October 2015 and the partnership is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

In 2016, we won a prestigious national industry award due to the app’s quality design.

How did Emvigo Technologies Ltd perform from a project management standpoint?

I like to control every detail. I have Skype chats with the designers, the warehouse developer, and the frontend developer. I talk through every single detail, even though they can capably execute the project on their own.  

What did you find most impressive about them?

The team is highly skilled, but also willing to learn things outside of their comfort zone.

Are there any areas they could improve?

There could be more communication about the work they’re doing for other customers. However, the team likely wants to keep that information confidential.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the founder and CEO of Pet Pardon LTD, an organization with an app that enables animal advocates to more efficiently share and donate towards the welfare of animals that will be euthanized in high kill shelters.
  

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Emvigo Technologies Ltd?
Our app and web presence are the core of our business, so I wanted to put together a new tool for the social media world. I needed a partner who had the skills to develop a high-quality app.
 

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?
Emvigo Technologies Ltd worked on our project from beginning to end. I gave them wireframes and a list of requirements for the minimum viable product, and they came back with what they could and couldn’t do. From there, they conducted research, created user stories, and developed the app. The product is a hybrid app for iOS and Android, and they recently delivered the prototype.

What is the team composition? 
I worked with a business analyst, project manager, and two developers.

How did you come to work with Emvigo Technologies Ltd?
They were a referral. They understood what I wanted to do and had the right experience, so I hired them. Plus, their price was great.

How much have you invested with them?
I spent around £43,000 (approximately $56,200 USD). 

What is the status of this engagement?
We worked together from July–December 2018.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We’ve gotten good feedback on the prototype from users and investors. They say the flow is good, it makes sense, and it looks good.

How did Emvigo Technologies Ltd perform from a project management standpoint?
They were a responsive team that met deadlines and communicated well. They provided an overview of the project at the beginning of the engagement, and we usually talked once a week. We mainly used Skype and email to communicate, although they were extremely accommodating to our needs.

What did you find most impressive about them?
They provided personal service and didn’t treat us like just another client. I felt special and listened to, and they understood what we wanted out of the partnership.

Are there any areas they could improve?
Sometimes I wasn’t sure who our main point of contact was, but that was a minor issue.

BACKGROUND

I’m the managing partner and director of a software company. I also work with a newer business that advises local and foreign Island visitors on what activities to do with their children.  

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Emvigo Technologies Ltd.?

We hired Emvigo Technologies Ltd. to build a new website and help develop our app.  Originally, we were using their team to design our magazine but then discovered our customers wanted online access to our content.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

When Emvigo first began working with us, they would organize all the images and text we sent them and create a physical magazine and upload the content to our site.

We wanted our platform to host information from local councils, schools, children’s shops, restaurants, etc. The engagement transitioned and they developed a new website and backend from scratch.  into web developing a new site from scratch and backend to hold all the magazine information. They created an iOS and Android app to correspond with the new site and make our information accessible via mobile or desktop.

Other business’ we partner with are able to display their information and website through the backend that Emvigo created. The next stage of the project is to enhance the functionality of the app. We’re planning on implementing tools to sell tickets for various attractions through the platform

What is the team composition?

We primarily work with Sanjay (CEO & Co-Founder, Emvigo Technologies Ltd.) and Anoop (CTO, Emvigo Technologies Ltd.) There are a few other members working on the design and functionalities of the platforms, as well.

How did you come to work with Emvigo Technologies Ltd.?

We were trying to find a local company or a UK based firm, but nothing was the right fit. After hearing about the positive experiences people had with Emvigo, we followed referrals and reached out to their team. We knew they had a strong reputation for design and database projects.

How much have you invested in them?

We’ve spent €75,000–€100,000 (approximately $85,773–$114,353 USD).

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with them in July 2017, and it’s an ongoing relationship.

The app is fully functional. Our customers are able to input information on the backend and browse our services.

They excel at managing the project. We have a point of contact for each stage of the project. Their team provides the right amount of resources even when the scope of the work changes. Their staff has a diverse skill set, ranging from technical to personable.

They feel like a part of our team and treat our project like a true a collaboration. Their level of involvement makes them stand out from other outsourced companies.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Though language differences were a slight barrier at the beginning, they worked with our team to supply the right resources for our needs.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Make sure you have a clear understanding of what you’re asking for and they’re providing.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

I engaged Emvigo for digital marketing services, but their project management was highly unsatisfactory. They failed to deliver items on time, faced constant connectivity issues, and had poor communication. Despite detailed feedback, they did not address the problems or meet project requirements. Tasks that should have been completed in a week dragged on for five weeks. Their inefficiency and lack of accountability led to a disappointing experience. I do not recommend Emvigo for digital marketing services due to their poor project management and inability to fulfill promises.

They should be honest, and say no, if of project is out of their competence. Not to lie to custumer and lose them time and money when they have not the capacity to keep theri promises.
