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

The partner provided project management at no additional cost, with their Business Analyst playing a particularly valuable dual role. She excelled at both translating requirements to their development team and handling initial project management responsibilities. Her deep understanding of the requirements and ability to communicate effectively with developers was a significant asset to the project.

While their initial project management approach met basic needs, the project's visibility and efficiency notably improved after our team took ownership of sprint planning and review processes. This transition resulted in:

• Better alignment with our priorities and timelines
• Increased transparency into development progress
• More effective sprint planning and execution
• Clearer communication about deliverables

This evolution in project management structure ultimately created a more productive working relationship, though it required our team to take a more active role than initially anticipated. The BA's strong technical and communication skills provided a solid foundation throughout this transition.

What was your primary form of communication with Geomotiv?

• Virtual Meeting

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

Anastasia Sakatkova, their Business Analyst, stood out as an exceptional asset. She brought a comprehensive skill set that combined deep product development experience with strong technical acumen. Her ability to creatively troubleshoot challenges while keeping the development team aligned was invaluable. What made Anastasia particularly effective was how she balanced our feedback with insights from her own experience, leading to better solutions.

Their Account Management Lead, Tamari Basaria, demonstrated strong commitment to our success through consistent engagement throughout the project. She was instrumental in ensuring a smooth transition to support and showed remarkable flexibility in working within our budget constraints to maximize the value of our partnership.

What truly set this company apart was how seamlessly they integrated with our organization. Rather than maintaining a typical vendor relationship, the team operated as a true extension of our own team, demonstrating genuine investment in our project's success and understanding of our goals.

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

While the overall partnership was successful, there were some challenges with communication due to language differences and time zone coordination. These occasionally impacted the efficiency of our interactions and required additional clarification steps in technical discussions.

The time zone differences between our teams created some scheduling challenges for real-time collaboration, though this is typical when working with international teams.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

PebblePost is a marketing technology services company. I'm the Chief Technology Officer responsible for building our platform and maintaining our production cloud systems.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Geomotiv ?

We needed to hire and scale an engineering team very fast in order to rebuild our platform completely from scratch. The original platform was initially built as a proof of concept, but the business took off at such a high scale trajectory that the platform was falling over since it would not perform or scale to the business needs. We could not hire a team with the needed big data and tiered web skills fast enough in NYC and I had experience with using an offshore team extension through Geomotiv from my previous company the Rubicon Project days. I reached out to Geomotiv and asked them to help me to again grow a highly skilled team aggressively fast. They we extremely helpful in collaborating to find, recruit, close, and maintain a highly skilled team quickly.

What were your goals for this project?

We successfully rebuilt the platform from scratch in 6 months and we're now working together to further scale the business, platform, and extend our product lines into other areas. The platform now essentially scales linearly with big data technologies. The platform has high performance in both speed and in accomplishing client goals.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I had successfully worked with Gemotiv at my previous company the Rubicon Project so they were my go-to first choice for building a fast high skilled team here. We discussed our needs which were different than before. Before it was mostly high performance high scale computing engineers that we were primarily interested in. This time the focus was more around big data technologies. Gemotiv felt confident that they could find engineers with the big data skills and so we worked together to accomplish that.

Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.

The project was to rebuild a big data graph systems from scratch, big data reporting, and build a new workflow campaign and creative management system. The big data was primarily Spark and GraphX. The web technologies were a Java/Spring backend and a react front end.

What was the team composition?

The teams were balanced around 70% onshore and 30% offshore.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The project was hugely successful in that it was built in 6 months and accomplished all of our core goals of infinite scale, high performance, reliable and maintainable through automated testing. The new workflow management web application allowed our client services team to handle 20x more clients per person than before.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

We are an agile team (scrum) so project management is handled within the self organizing team. The Geomotiv team was essentially an extension of our team.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Geomotiv is able to find highly skilled engineers much faster than we are are able to in NY at an equivalent or even higher quality.

Are there any areas for improvement?

If there were areas to improve we would have already done so. I did mention some changes that would help us to create better success early on and the Geomotiv team responded and improved them quickly.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I was the CTO of N Technologies. They offer an advertising audience-management platform tailored for B2B interactions.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Geomotiv?

We needed help developing a real-time bidding system based on RTBKit (open-source software package). Afterward, they helped us out on several smaller projects.

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted to introduce functionalities the business required: a bidder with highly specialized logic and 3rd party-systems integrations.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I worked with them as an outsourcing partner at a previous company. We sent them an inquiry, along with other candidates. They offered a developer who was perfectly suited for our needs, so we hired them.

Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.

We brought them on solely to handle highly complex coding tasks. We provided them with some requirements, but they also developed some of them themselves. They also migrated an ad server from Ruby to Node and did several integrations (Salesforce, Facebook API, Google API).

What was the team composition?

We worked with two senior developers.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

I call the project a success because other developers were able to extend their code without major issues. They fulfilled all our requirements.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

It was quite one-sided. We provided user stories, and they provided deliverables. They were always available on a chat channel, and we had daily phone calls.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their professionalism was great. They tried to up-sell me some, but not to an unacceptable degree.

Are there any areas for improvement?

I can’t suggest anything serious to improve. I think they’re headed in the right direction, and their work ethic is great. You should expect above-average service.
