Herbertus

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the head of project management for a software development company. We develop and design mobile applications, websites, and web apps, and we work with some partners to help us with that.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Herbertus?

We were facing a lack of available resources, so we asked Herbertus for help.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Herbertus was our outsourced partner for one of our web development projects; their team was in charge of the design and development work. The design phase started with a kickoff call with our client to discuss their vision regarding their website’s design, during which we brainstormed different ideas.

The design process took quite some time because we required the client’s approval, so we iterated with them until we reached their desired design for the site. Once we got the approval for the design, Herbertus started developing the website from scratch. Throughout the process, they worked on the different pages and helped us optimize the website. As for the technology stack, they used JavaScript, WordPress, and some third-party integrations.

What is the team composition?

We worked with a UI/UX designer and a developer.

How did you come to work with Herbertus?

One of my colleagues recommended them. They were flexible and easy to communicate with, and their price was very competitive. Additionally, their portfolio was very good, so we hired them.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent around €15,000 (approximately $16,000 USD).

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked from October 2021–October 2022 — the project took us a year to complete.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

One of our success indicators was the quality of Herbertus work.

How did Herbertus perform from a project management standpoint?

Herbertus’ project management was very good. We divided the project into two phases — design and development — and assigned milestones to each phase. Herbertus reached those milestones on time and on budget.

Moreover, Herbertus communicated with my colleagues and me as if they were our external team; we had a very close and flexible collaboration. We used Slack to communicate and had weekly calls with their team. Additionally, they used Figma to create and share their designs.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Herbertus flexibility and project accountability were impressive. They truly cared about what they would deliver, ensuring that the end client was satisfied with the result.

Are there any areas they could improve?

It would have been great if we had used more project management tools to engage.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Communication is key. Have a few initial calls with them to discuss your ideas and what you want to achieve so that it gets easier for Herbertus to understand your requirements. Additionally, leverage regular meetings throughout the project to review their work and progress.
