Custom Software Design & Dev for Real Estate Platform
"Enkonix understands startups and thinks beyond just the development process."
the reviewer
the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the co-founder of Visualized.
What challenge were you trying to address with Enkonix?
I had a concept for a product and needed a software development team to build it.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Enkonix built our platform from the ground up, so their services included design and development. Their team created the custom product, which delivers a service. It’s a virtual staging platform for real estate agents, brokers, and homeowners. Users upload photos of a space, and then we get it virtually staged for them. Right now, they’re testing the platform.
What is the team composition?
I work with a dedicated project manager who’s helpful. Also, the CEO periodically touches base with me to make sure the project’s going well.
How did you come to work with Enkonix?
Someone in my network recommended them. I talked to a bunch of development firms and developers, and only Enkonix offered a business perspective. Their team understood startups.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve spent around $20,000 on the project.
What is the status of this engagement?
We began our relationship in May 2020, and the bulk of the work’s coming to a close. Once they hand everything over, I’ll keep the relationship open for product updates.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Their service’s great. I appreciate how their CEO touches base to ensure that I’m happy. I’ve had other people review their code who’ve said that it looks really good.
How did Enkonix perform from a project management standpoint?
We use G Suite, and they use InVision for demos. Enkonix touches base weekly. Their team also documents the process to show how we’re moving toward our budget. They shared a spreadsheet where their team tracks their completed work. Their team’s communicative.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Enkonix understands startups and thinks beyond just the development process. Their team makes recommendations based on what they think would be best for my business. They also have a strong development team.
Are there any areas they could improve?
The only challenge was the difference in time zones, but it wasn’t a big deal. I prefer taking calls at certain times of the day, and it can be hard for them because they’re seven hours ahead or so.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Give the project a lot of thought before you reach out to them because it makes the process more efficient. Have a dedicated liaison on your end. As the founder, there are times when I’m so swamped that I can’t get back to them right away.

Custom Development for Online Digital Marketing Platform
“Their team went out of their way to provide extra features that I didn’t think of.”
the reviewer
the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the owner of an online marketing company. I work alone and don’t have any employees. Instead, I hire other companies for the work I have.
What challenge were you trying to address with Enkonix?
I needed to create an automatic link building service for one of my projects. It was something I'd seen on the internet before; but since I can’t program myself, I was looking for someone to build it for me.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Enkonix developed the platform; it’s a website with a tool built into it. Their team is using different technologies. They started with AWS for hosting. Now, they’re using Django for the back office, as well as some other technologies I’m not familiar with. They showed me what they use, and it all sounds logical.
The project began with a conversation with the owners of Enkonix. I explained every detail to them, and it was actually difficult because I was basing my description off of something I had only seen. I told them all the needed requirements, but it was hard to build the solution from scratch. The Enkonix team took my information and derived a plan to build everything. The details of the plan were even more than I expected.
After that, we started on the designs. Enkonix made the process easy because they handled all the design work themselves. Afterward, we moved onto the technical part of building out the designs. This was the hardest part because everything had to connect with one another and it took some time.
What is the team composition?
Upon engagement, I met with two people in-person and three people online. There’s a group of designers and developers that are working on the project. I have an account manager who I communicate with, and he delivers the projects to the developers and designers.
How did you come to work with Enkonix?
I was looking for a developer and posted my task on Upwork. Enkonix replied, and we took it from there. A lot of companies applied but Enkonix really stood out to me. We met in-person because they have an office here in Amsterdam. I explained the project details to them, and they looked at the example I saw online. I’m glad I selected them because, in the end, it all worked out.
How much have you invested in them?
I’ve spent between $50,000–$100,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
The ongoing project started in September 2019. Now, we work together on a regular basis, but not as much as before.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
The platform’s base and specifications are all developed and finished. Overall, I’m really happy with the design because it looks better than my competitor’s, and that was the goal. Not to mention, Enkonix was really fast in implementing the design phase.
The quality of their work has been good from the start. Enkonix quickly provided resolutions for any problems we faced. I ended up with a completely functioning tool and backend for me and the users. This is very important because for now, I’m handling all marketing efforts to obtain new users.
Now that I’m working with the system, I get a lot of user feedback. Users have to register and then they can access the tool. Often times, there are extra things that need to be built or changed. If things aren’t working properly, I will hear about it. So far, I don’t have any complaints about usability. All-in-all, the solution is really good and my users like it too.
How did Enkonix perform from a project management standpoint?
They shared some tools that allow me to check on the project progress. Also, I have weekly Skype calls with my project manager where we discuss project status. Personally, I didn’t find it necessary to receive daily updates about the project; a weekly update was enough for me. Things are working well between budget and fixing issues, so I’m ok with the frequency.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Enkonix’s communication has been really good. I’ve been working in online marketing since 2004 and have used many other companies. This was the first time that a company really understood what my project was about.
Enkonix is detail-oriented. Their team went out of their way to provide extra features that I didn’t think of. It’s difficult to find a company that’s in control, communicates well, and is an effective listener. Enkonix is all of those things plus they transformed my ideas into a working tool.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, I can’t think of anything. In the end, I paid a lot of money. I’m paying a big price for the service I get, but then again, I’m getting really good service. It’s worth the money, but it’s still a lot of money in the end.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
One thing that’s important is the type of communication coming from your side. Communication needs to be present because it keeps the project going. If you communicate with Enkonix on a daily or weekly basis, you can move forward with the project you’re helping build. That’s something I’d recommend to anyone who wants to hire them.

Web Development for Custom Game Developer
"The impact was enormous."
the reviewer
the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
We create custom games for companies. Those games are meant to give teams a simulated experience to further team bonding or resolve issues in the future. We also perform some gamified assessments. We put hiring candidates through psychological tests and assessments.
What challenge were you trying to address with Enkonix?
We had a homemade software package in place for tracking people on different subjects and tasks. It was a bit outdated and not adaptive enough, so we hired Enkonix to develop a newer version.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Enkonix developed our web-based system. We have a database for collecting data in the backend and a dashboard. I work in the background, between the head of our company and Enkonix, to make sure all requirements are translated into technical terms. It was influential in the early stages to make sure that was communicated while building the framework.
What is the team composition?
That very much depends. On average, there’s a team of five people. We had two developers, a QA tester, a frontend designer, and our main point of contact. Our main contact is a manager that handles quality control. Once, we asked for an extra feature a few days before the launch, and our team went up to eight. We’re also in frequent contact with the owners.
How did you come to work with Enkonix?
We were referred to Enkonix by someone who worked with them, developing financial software with simulation components. Our contact thought we would be the perfect fit because of their experience. We ended up having consultations with them, talking over how it was supposed to look.
We assumed there would be a language barrier since they’re based in Ukraine, but there wasn’t. We were able to see how capable Enkonix was before deciding to develop the new software with them.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve invested between $50,000–$100,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We had initial consultations with them in either June or July 2019. The development began that August.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
The impact was enormous.
Before, we had to bring our laptops with the system on them, which was difficult when the system needed to be used by 30 or so people that also needed it installed. Now, we have a web link, and everything is taken care of in the background. It’s currently operational only within our internal team, but we’re building it to become a SaaS in the future.
We were also reliant on one developer, which involved things not working out at times. With Enkonix, we made it clear how each setting worked, and we started from scratch. Their team made it clear how to use everything, so we were never surprised. Whenever we had a question, they were available.
With the new system, we can make a game or simulation, and either delay it or put it forward at any time. We’ve been able to reduce labor, and the user-friendliness of the UI has very much improved. It reduces the amount of effort needed to set up a simulation.
Whenever there’s a new feature, their team completes it within a test environment. We can identify any missing features or tweaks needed. They comply with our wishes, pushing it to the production server, where we can work with our clients. If there’s a quality issue, it’s only on the test server. It’s always handled before it reaches our clients.
How did Enkonix perform from a project management standpoint?
Using Jira gave us access to their backlog. We can see their hours, what they’re working on, and any issues. We can prioritize certain issues for resolution as well. It allows us to see the entire flow and all of the priorities. Jira makes the managing of the development very simple and clear.
When we have a new request, we can see how they enter it into the system after a meeting, and whether it’s in-line with what we requested. If it isn’t, we can give them a heads up about what needs to be changed.
What did you find most impressive about them?
When we first launched the project, their company heads traveled to us to see the system in action. That showed their dedication to the project.
When we requested something urgently, they’ve had a few all-nighters. Their team worked through the night to have it delivered by the morning, so we could have our simulations run smoothly.
Are there any areas they could improve?
Even though we understand each other, I sometimes get a feeling that they don’t discuss a few things thoroughly enough. While it works out using Jira and having back-and-forths, I feel like they could ask more questions.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
They’re kind people that are great to get along with. My advice would be for the client to have a plan ready to allow them to start working immediately. It’s important to have a vision and not put together the plan as we go along.

the reviewer
the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the CEO of an online marketing firm. We manage different types of websites worldwide.
What challenge were you trying to address with Enkonix?
We needed a new website. The old one was getting too big, and slow, with outdated technology.
What was the scope of their involvement?
They worked with us to build a new website. There were some elements that stayed the same, but it was basically built from scratch. The website is custom-built, using Python and Laravel for backend, and Vue technology for frontend.
They improved the SEO of the website by increasing its speed in order to provide information more quickly to internet users. They continue the maintenance and implementation of new ideas to the website currently.
What is the team composition?
There are usually 2-3 people working on the project, but it varies depending on the period of the project we’re in.
How did you come to work with Enkonix?
We searched for developers online. We felt they were the most trustworthy out of the companies we considered.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve invested €75,000 (approximately $82,000).
What is the status of this engagement?
We started the project in May 2019, and it is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
They have improved the speed, as well as the SEO, of the website, which was what we were looking for when we started the project.
How did Enkonix perform from a project management standpoint?
I’m in contact with the account manager, who reviews and delegates tasks to the appropriate team member. I send requests in Word documents through Google Drive. We also communicate with Skype calls and chats. There are no issues, despite the distance.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I really like the speed with which they respond. If I make a request, I know it will be done within a few hours, or at most, a few days. They’re far superior to my previous experience. They did a good job; everything is neat.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, nothing comes to mind.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
First, I suggest speaking English when contacting them. Be responsive when they have questions to facilitate the speed with which they can finish tasks.

Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the managing director at StartMy, an online recruitment and training company in the financial sector. We’re based in The Netherlands, but we work with customers from around the globe, especially universities, banks, and training companies.
What challenge were you trying to address with Enkonix?
We wanted assistance in bringing our online training services to global customers.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Enkonix is building our virtual environment. They built a training portal and an evaluation environment for us, both based on Django and Python. In the environment, teachers can assign documents, tests, presentations, and simulations to students. Right now, there are several simulators for different sectors of the financial industry. In addition, they built a landing page for our services.
They also helped us bring our proposition to our target groups through different marketing channels. They’re our partner-in-crime for being successful in this marketplace.
What is the team composition?
Our primary points of contact are the CTO and CEO. They have a team of architects and developers under them that work on the platform. We also worked with several designers when we were creating the landing page. The team is flexible, so we can add more people to the project if needed.
How did you come to work with Enkonix?
We started working with Enkonix two and a half years ago, for Oxyor, our other company. When we started this project as StartMy, I decided to work with them again. We have a good relationship we had and the work they produce is high-quality.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve invested between $50,000-$200,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with them on this project in January 2020, and the work is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
The quality of their work is good. They address any bugs or issues we encounter, which is very important for us. They have a lot of experience, and they focus on finding solutions for us. The team is proactive, reasonably priced, and knowledgable.
How did Enkonix perform from a project management standpoint?
We use GitHub and Jira, where we can see exactly how they’re spending their hours. We’ve never had a debate on what they were doing or what price we had to pay. It’s a transparent process. The project management is straightforward, proactive, and efficient, despite working remotely.
We’re based in the Netherlands, and they’re based in Kiev, with offices in Dublin and Germany. They’ve traveled to the Netherlands to meet with us several times.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They’re a trustworthy company. The work to produce the highest quality work, and they share our ambition for the project. They have really capable people in their team and are keen on new technologies.

We were creating a new technology called “Best Product” and we needed a vendor to assist with software development.
What was the scope of their involvement?
A big component of the software is a cloud-based database that allows us to analyze sports performance data for different action sports. The development included creating a customized architecture that enables us to create and visual data products.
What is the team composition?
The core team was made up of five people, but there were seven people in total.
How did you come to work with Enkonix?
I met one of their employees through a networking opportunity. We decided to work with them because they are a startup-focused company. Their team understands the challenges that startups face and are skilled at combatting those.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve spent close to €100,000 (approximately $110,000 USD).
What is the status of this engagement?

Are there any areas they could improve?

Have a clear plan of what it is you want to do and make sure that you can communicate that properly. Fluency in English is also important, otherwise, communication will be difficult.

the reviewer
the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m a partner for an educational company in the Netherlands.
What challenge were you trying to address with Enkonix?
We work with a lot of different companies. We needed to establish a system for managing our students, courses, and website using the same technology and language. We’d started many years ago using different kinds of systems just to make it work. Now, we needed to rewrite it all into one stable system.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Enkonix developed a system for automatically managing our bookings. It uses microservices so that we don’t have everything in one big database. That was pretty challenging. They also redesigned our website and brought new features to it.
What is the team composition?
We had a designer, a QA tester, two backend developers, two frontend developers, and a project manager. There were 7–9 people involved in total, but some of them just handled small tasks.
How did you come to work with Enkonix?
We posted a request for developers on a website. We do that regularly because we’re always looking for freelancers and companies. Enkonix responded, and our discussion went well.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve spent around $125,000 with them.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started around August 2019. We still work with them for support.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We’d been searching for a proper company to have a long-term relationship with for years. It’s hard to find professional developers like Enkonix that can help us come up with better business solutions. Enkonix has a good structure. Their team tries to understand everything about our business in the first step rather than working on individual tasks.
How did Enkonix perform from a project management standpoint?
The project manager is one of the smartest managers I’ve worked with. The whole flow was properly organized. I have a million things to do, so it was nice to know that the PM was actively engaged in the project without constantly messaging him.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I’ve worked with around 30 different companies; Enkonix stands out through its overall structure and processes. I can give them a task and not worry about it. They think ahead and come up with better options than what we had.
Are there any areas they could improve?
Enkonix sets the bar really high for themselves. If we give them a task, they want to do it perfectly. However, sometimes, we’ll take less than perfect if it gets done a bit faster.
Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?
Clients should take Enkonix’s advice. They’re an experienced team, and they’ll give lots of feedback that you should take into account. They think differently than non-developers, and they think of the long term.

the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I'm the owner of Status 418. I'm a subcontractor for different kinds of development projects.
What challenge were you trying to address with Enkonix?
I don't always have the time to complete development projects myself. I hired Enkonix as additional muscle to help build a project for my client.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Enkonix built a platform that allows a company to verify whether or not its purchased outdoor advertising placements are being displayed as expected. They primarily work in Django and Python on the backend, and Vue.js on the frontend.
The platform allows agents to walk around a physical location, such as a bus stop, via GPS. Then they take a photo of the ad placement and upload it to the platform. They indicate whether the advertisement is displayed correctly, or if it is blocked or absent altogether. Enkonix continues to do maintenance and feature development as needed.
How did you come to work with Enkonix?
I found them on Upwork.
How much have you invested with them?
I spent between €30,000–€40,000 (approximately $34,000–$45,000 USD).
What is the status of this engagement?
Work started in October 2018 and the engagement is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
The platform was finished in January 2019. Enkonix did a really good job. They had a great project manager who was always one step ahead. As a developer myself, it was super helpful to have someone like that managing the project.
How did Enkonix perform from a project management standpoint?
Their team performed exceptionally well. They led most of the project management. I was just there to oversee some aspects of platform development.
What did you find most impressive about them?
The communication skills of the project manager are most impressive. Communication is often difficult with offshore projects. Enkonix addresses that issue by hiring good project managers. Also, they really know their stuff in terms of technology. They know the best practices and their code is solid. I have no complaints.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, nothing comes to mind.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Have a clear idea of what you want to build. Otherwise, there's room for interpretation on both sides. That ambiguity could cause delays in the project.

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m one of the managing directors of Oxyor. We provide training services within the finance sector.
What challenge were you trying to address with Enkonix?
Our product suite was becoming outdated, and we engaged Enkonix as a tech partner to modernize it.
What was the scope of their involvement?
We had an initial two-day workshop with Enkonix in The Netherlands to gain a better understanding of our teams. We discussed our fundamental challenges and what the market looked like. That meeting gave our company a chance to understand our tech supplier better and decide whether we wanted to move forward. We were happy with how Enkonix prepared everything, so we continued with the engagement.
They made a breakdown of our work, timeframe, and prices, so it was clear what we could expect. We’re not IT experts, so we relied on them for changes in the solution and technology. Enkonix helped us choose the right technology by explaining the impact it would have on our price and future development.
They developed three parts of our product using Django Python. We have a lot of market trading and bank management simulations that they helped us with. They also built a portal where we can upload evaluation questionnaires and simulations.
What is the team composition?
Their CEO acted as our project manager. We also worked with their CTO, a designer, some QA testers, and separate teams for front- and backend development. They defined and split the roles quite well. Depending on the phase, we held meetings with the project manager and the CTO, or just with the project manager.
How did you come to work with Enkonix?
We found Enkonix through Upwork.
How much have you invested with them?
The total cost for this phase has been above €50,000 (approximately $56,875 USD).
What is the status of this engagement?
We worked together on this phase from September 2018–March 2019. We have many products here, and we’d like to continue working with Enkonix.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We were really content with what they delivered, in terms of the price-to-quality ratio. They also completed their work per our schedule. We’ve already deployed their questionnaire module to bank managers, and everything is working well.
How did Enkonix perform from a project management standpoint?
They provided clear financial spreadsheets with budgets broken down per project, along with our progress. We knew exactly what our burn rate was. We had short meetings every Thursday, and if we needed to get in contact outside of that, we would have a quick Skype call or WhatsApp chat.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They’re proactive, and we’re thinking about establishing a more in-depth partnership with them. They’re experts in IT, and they can bring new ways of thinking in this area. We’re helping them position themselves as an IT expert in our country to provide new opportunities for them. Enkonix demonstrated a lot of experience and discipline. They have good developers and project management.
Are there any areas they could improve?
Their development team could improve its English skills, but the project manager picked up much of the slack in that regard.
Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?
I would recommend working with them. Enkonix has high-quality specialists, and they have a lot of ambition. We’re glad to have found them.

the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the founder and CEO of a tip management software company.
What challenge were you trying to address with Enkonix?
I needed a skilled development team that was capable of meeting deadlines.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Our software allows restaurants and bars to share, organize, and manage their tips. It’s a web-based application that also works on mobile devices. The app was already built, but Enkonix came in and did a complete overhaul. They fixed our existing problems and added several new features. The team continues to support our backend development efforts.
What is the team composition?
We work with a team of 2–4 resources, depending on the workload. I have a consistent main point of contact.
How did you come to work with Enkonix?
I’d worked with one of the founding members in the past, and it was a positive experience. We kept in contact, and at some point, he informed me that he had his own company. When the relationship with our previous vendor started to deteriorate, I reached out to him. His team had a great work ethic and seemed smart in our initial discussions, so we chose to engage them.
How much have you invested with them?
So far, we’ve spent around $25,000
What is the status of this engagement?
We first partnered with them in November 2016, and it’s an ongoing relationship.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
The Enkonix team fixed our entire system, completing tasks that our previous vendor deemed impossible. We were pressed for time, but they still delivered high-quality work. It’s a complex application, but they continue to eagerly embrace each challenge. It’s clear that they care about our business.
How did Enkonix perform from a project management standpoint?
They’re truly a full-service company with a well-rounded staff. Our company uses a technology that falls outside their specialty, but they still have a few resources that are familiar with the framework. The Enkonix team can efficiently multi-task, working like a well-oiled machine.
Our main point of contact is a dedicated and skilled leader. Their full team is always responsible and available even during off hours. We communicate well, and the language barrier has never caused misunderstandings. Their team is realistic about their capabilities, and they will offer alternative solutions when necessary. We can also count on them to follow through on their promises and meet our budget restrictions. They’re a collaborative and reliable partner.
What did you find most impressive about them?
It’s not all about the money; they’re genuinely invested in the success of our project and want to see us succeed. They also take full responsibility for their work. If something isn’t right, they’ll fix it immediately.
Are there any areas they could improve?
It would be nice if they had more resources with experience working with our system’s framework, but I was aware of their areas of expertise before I agreed to partner with them. They’d still benefit from expanding their core focuses to include more technology.
Any advice for potential customers?
Clients should do their research to make sure Enkonix would be a good fit. While their work may be great, it’s important that both teams have a good working relationship and get along well. I recommend clients ask Enkonix a few in-depth questions about their project and see if their answers match the vision.
Enkonix produced a platform with high-quality code. The involvement of leadership demonstrates the team's commitment to the client’s satisfaction. Their detailed documentation enables transparent collaboration. The team's technical and business acumen supports a successful long-term partnership.
