I wanted to create a prototype of my business idea to present to the market and assess market-fit.

For what projects/services did your company hire Goldweb Solutions?

UX/UI design and prototyping of web app

What were your goals for this project?

To create a prototype that would showcase the business idea rich with UX and UI elements.

How did you select this vendor?

Based on reviews here on Clutch.co

Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.

I provided a very rough sketch made in excel of the pages' contents and key functionalities that I wanted the prototype to demonstrate.

1. They created the wire-frames of the website and nailed down the key buttons and elements as well as their interactions.
2. They proceeded with creating the actual mock-up of the site by adding design elements (color and design schema).
3. They produced a mobile version of the same site with an interactive, mobile-screen ready prototype that was fully interactive and clickable.
4. They created a design guideline based on the above feature (colors, fonts, accents, sizes, hover status, etc.)

Communication through each phase of the project was extremely efficient, direct and productive. They applied sound critical observation and proposed useful changes to my original sketch adding additional elements and removing redundant or unnecessary features when needed.

What was the team composition?

The project was small in nature so I worked with only one person - a UX/UI Designer - which was all that was needed considering the size and scope of the project.

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

Whereas there are no demonstrable metrics that would illustrate the value-impact of this project, I can say that I am very happy with the product I obtained from this vendor. The prototype I received is fluid, easy to use and understand and this gives me confidence when presenting it to the public.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

Communication from the vendor side was effective. The scope and size of the project didn't warrant the use of project management tools. We relied mostly on Figma comments and Telegram communication. I believe that this approach made both sides more agile and allowed for more quick and direct communication.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The overall quality of the output and ease of communication stood out. This combined with their critical observation and ability to quickly grasp the overarching goals and functionalities that the project intended to prototype/showcase.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Personally, I didn't really find any. Maybe we stretched the timeline a little longer than was initially planned but I believe that the quality of the final product ultimately trumps speed.
