Ideamotive

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm Marketing Manager at Veriori SA. Our company mission is to bring new standards to the social responsibility of brands and help put customers first and foremost - to continually reassure them of the authenticity and supreme quality ofthe products they use. Veriori's solutions are based on state-of-the-art technologies and advanced cryptographic mechanisms. In this way, we secure and authenticate products and documents.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Ideamotive, and what were your goals?

Our goal was to build a new website, with new company branding, on Hubspot. Considering the extensive solutions, such as CRM and Marketing Automation, we had to take into account the later development of the website and the possibility of future growth.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

The partnership was established by the software house serving us in app development, who recommended Ideamotive as Hubspot specialists.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

The project involved programming all elements of our new website on Hubspot based on previously designed UX mockups.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We worked with a project manager who delegated the work to a team of several developers on the vendor side.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

The new website with the company's new branding had to be published on the day of a trade fair in which the company was participating. Everything was done on time, and the new website allowed us to present a wide range of our products. The site continues to be developed with new tools, using the opportunities Hubspot gives us.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

We had daily and weekly stand-ups with their Project Manager, who communicated with the rest of the team. We used Jira to coordinate our work. They worked perfectly with our team, always being there to help and answer even the simplest of questions. The work flowed smoothly and allowed us to quickly close every stage of the project and correct any errors that were reported.

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

The Project Manager we worked with started by making improvements to the UX mockups, which showed us several errors in the project. Additionally, he supported us with his experience at every stage of the work, thanks to which we avoided several potential problems. When working with a team of people on the client's side who are not familiar with programming, he showed exceptional patience and a great attitude, which allowed the work to move forward.

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

We are currently reporting minor bugs on the site as some elements have been built differently than we would currently do. We let them know, and they are trying to fix the issues.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I am the marketing manager at a sports equipment company with its own sports brand that mainly works with European businesses.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Ideamotive?

We hired Ideamotive for website development and marketing. 

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Ideamotive developed our website from scratch utilizing HubSpot as our CRM. We had a few specific requirements, mainly that the website was to serve as a business leads collection point. So, we provided graphics and written content to their developers to add to the site that would appeal to potential customers and showcase our offerings. As part of the partnership, Ideamotive assisted with SEO efforts and helped guide us down the right path when it came to marketing our services. 

Since the website is now complete, Ideamotive now develops additional site functionalities. 

What is the team composition?

We worked with several teammates from Ideamotive, including senior-level and mid-level developers, a project manager, and a marketing specialist. 

How did you come to work with Ideamotive?

A different company we know through our business network had very positive reviews of Ideamotive. First, we were interested in working with WordPress, but the other company recommended HubSpot and connected us with Ideamotive. 

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve invested $10,000–$20,000 with Ideamotive. 

What is the status of this engagement?

We began working with Ideamotive in June 2021 and our partnership is ongoing. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Ideamotive met all of our requirements: they delivered on time, within budget, and the development met our business goals. We’re delighted with their work. We’re finally at a point where we’re generating more traffic and leads on the site, but I don’t have any specific numbers right now. 

How did Ideamotive perform from a project management standpoint?

Ideamotive was a great partner — almost everything was delivered on time. The project management and development were handled well. We communicated daily over Slack and occasionally over the phone; we also used ClickUp for project management tracking. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

The most impressive thing about Ideamotive is their pro-client approach to a project. They also have very efficient, clear communication throughout a project. They’re problem-solvers — if we have any issues they can assist on, they will. 

We’ve worked with many agencies on various projects, but Ideamotive is one of the top companies I’ve worked with.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I am satisfied with our partnership. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I’d advise customers to be transparent and communicative with Ideamotive so they can have a successful partnership. 

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am a CEO of a Software house. We develop custom software, appliacations and e-commerce.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Ideamotive, and what were your goals?

I hired Ideamotive to support our e-commerce project. We needed a highly skilled PHP developer for Prestashop project.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

I work with Ideamotive for a long time. We have made toogether many projects and Ideamoticve was the first choice where I asked for an IT specialist.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

PHP developer from Ideamotive had to create a big part of e-commerce platform . He wasresponsible for the all backend technologies in Prestashop. Developer made custom CMS logic, custom functions and also custom design. He used PHP, JS, CSS and also Prestashop framework.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

One person - PHP/Web developer.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

Developer made an excellent work, all functionalities work fine, the code was clear and communication was also very good.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

We worked on Slack, Trello and Microsfot Teams. Developer worked in Agile methodology and has done it well. As I mantioned communication was perfect as well as timelines.

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

We're most impressed by their professionalism, their developer's skill set, and their excellent communication. 

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

Everything was perfect and I'm looking forward for next project with Ideamotive

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

We’re a kitchen and bath home remodeling company. Builders and homeowners come to us when they’re building new homes or remodeling existing ones, and we will design custom cabinetry for kitchens, baths, and other rooms. We cover the entire scope of the project, from design to construction and installation. I’m a project manager in the company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Ideamotive?

I was tasked with finding software that could manage our entire business, from customer information to typing contracts, accounting, and inventory tracking.

We’d worked with another software developer to create a SaaS program from scratch but felt that they could no longer continue to grow the solution.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We’ve undertaken a full custom software development project with Ideamotive. They enhanced the UI/UX of our existing platform and cleaned up its backend coding, which was messy and had a lot of bugs. They’ve also upgraded us to the most current version of Ruby on Rails, and developed a lot of new features.

The work is ongoing. We’re hoping to integrate our calendars and email systems with the software as well. Additionally, though we’re only using the software internally right now, we’re hoping to sell it to similar companies as well. 

What is the team composition?

I’ve worked closely with 5–6 people from Ideamotive, including the project manager. We’re very flexible in adding to our team when needed, in order to meet deadlines, but we have a core group. Ideamotive has brought in other developers here and there when we’ve wanted to push things faster. 

We originally worked with designers and a project manager to map out our idea. They gave us a lot of screenshots and wireframes, which we approved, and we got in contact with the developers after that.

How did you come to work with Ideamotive?

I looked online for different companies that could take over the project, including on Clutch, and I had phone interviews with Ideamotive’s marketing team. After I described the project, we had some Zoom conversations with their development team. 

How much have you invested with them?

A general ballpark of our spending would be between $250,000–$350,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with Ideamotive in January 2020, and we went live with the new version in August of that year. We’re still working with them on some pieces, but we’ve slowed development at this point. We’ve completed most of the work.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

My general feedback is that they’re efficient and thorough and have superior communication. We were made part of the team from the start, and they consulted us on every idea and change. Ideamotive brought us a lot of ideas that we wouldn’t have considered or thought of, and their suggestions were always methodical and thought-out. They explained how doing something one way versus another would be more efficient or more effective in the long run.

I don’t necessarily have any metrics to share, but Ideamotive is professional, and they’ve done a great job. It’s very obvious that they know what they’re doing. They lead us in the right direction, and they’re always transparent about where they are in the project when it comes to the timeline and budget. We’ve had a great experience with them, and we continue to.

The transition to the software version that Ideamotive built was much smoother than any transition I’ve been a part of. Our software is now far superior to what it was. Ideamotive tests everything extremely well, and anytime an issue does come up, they’re very quick to respond and fix it. I expected that everything wouldn’t work properly the first time around, but it’s been better than we expected.

How did Ideamotive perform from a project management standpoint?

They’re great at communicating with us in terms of talking through ideas and improvements, and they’re very responsive. We’re in the US, and they’re in Poland. We realize that there’s a time difference, and we were hesitant about working with a vendor outside the US, but Ideamotive has accommodated every meeting and request in an extremely timely manner.

Their project manager has handled everything smoothly and flawlessly. We’ve had weekly or biweekly Zoom meetings depending on the speed of development at that time. The amount of detail they provide over text and video communication during these meetings is very impressive.

They check everything with us. I am involved in the final testing of all development phases: the project manager reviews the deliverables, sends them to me, and relays any changes I request back to their developers. They cross their t’s and dot their i’s and I do the final push to my internal team.

Ideamotive drives the project forward and keeps us on task. They’ve also given us tools that we can use to check what they’re doing. All their developers check in daily with the project manager, who checks in daily with us, whether it’s on the phone, Jira, Slack, or another tool. We always know exactly where we were within the development.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their communication and ability to assign a dedicated team stand out. We know that the members of the team aren’t going to continually change, and Ideamotive has been willing to keep us involved from the start.

We talked to other companies, and one of our big concerns was that we didn’t want to receive a final product that was completely different from what we described at the outset. We went with Ideamotive because we felt like a part of the team and enjoyed their constant communication. They promised us that that’s how they like to work, and they definitely showed it.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I don’t know in what ways they could improve. Having worked with another team in the past, we knew what we didn’t want, and that was a lack of communication and involvement in the project. Ideamotive has outperformed our previous partner by far. Their testing, design, and development have been exactly what we look for. We’re excited to keep working with them.

Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?

My advice is to take advantage of the fact that Ideamotive wants the client to be involved in the project. Spend time on weekly calls or check-ins to tell them what you want. The more you share with them, the more they’ll understand what we’re looking for.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am a product manager. We create a tool that provides comprehensive indicators of customer behavior and paths in the real world.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Ideamotive?

We needed the support of an experienced developer to verify our plans. We received the support of a person with extensive knowledge and experience who fully committed to the task.

What were your goals for this project?

Verify the correctness of our approach and learn about technological innovations that will optimize the operation of our product.

SOLUTION

How did you select Ideamotive?

I was looking for companies with the best opinions on the web and that's how I came across Ideamotive. Piotr contacted me and he went into action very quickly. It was a great choice.

Describe the project in detail.

On Thursday, we learned that another company resigned from consultations scheduled for Monday, which were very important to us. We were forced to look for other support because we really wanted time.

After presenting the scope that we need to discuss, Piotr proposed the most suitable candidate. We received enormous knowledge and commitment, which helped us a lot in further work.

What was the team composition?

Frontend developer - Marcin

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Everything was delivered quickly within the timeline and high quality. All that allowed us to make a huge step forward in terms of our priorities and start new projects.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The developer they provided us with was directly cooperating with me. He was always highly responsive, proactive and ready to answer all the questions.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Previous experience in the same industry. Professionalism of the developer we worked with. They provided high-quality service without any problems during the process that was crucial to the product.

I also appreciate the excellent contact with the person who was our guardian and found the perfect candidate for us in no time,

Are there any areas for improvement?

I don’t see any area for improvement right now. Everything was perfect.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the founder and CEO of Microamp Solutions, a deep tech startup working on an innovative RF infrastructure for 5G networks and future wireless communication systems.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Ideamotive?

Companies like ours generally use expensive software to design electronic devices such as RF modules. As a startup, we don’t have a lot of money to spend on this software, so we decided to develop a solution on our own. We needed to find software developers with knowledge in electronics and mathematics.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We went to Ideamotive for help designing and developing a platform for designing 5G power amplifiers based on mathematics and physics formulas. They handled the whole process of designing the UI and developing the backend.

We gave them requirements and explained how the platform should work. We went through our process for designing power amplifiers, and Ideamotive adjusted the design of the platform accordingly.

They built the engine based on formulas and advanced electronics principles that we outlined, like the Smith chart, which is the basis for microwave engineering. The people that Ideamotive gave us understood what we were doing, so they understood the purpose of what they were doing.

The UI was also important to us. Everyone wants to have a user-friendly interface, but ours also had to be adjusted to our procedures and design methods.

What is the team composition?

We worked with four people from Ideamotive. David (CTO) was the main designer of the engine. He has a background in electronics, so he understood the scope. We also worked with two UI designers.

How did you come to work with Ideamotive?

They were recommended to me by a friend whose colleague had worked with Ideamotive. I sent our requirements and vision for the platform to multiple software houses, but they told us that it was too complicated for them and that they didn’t have people with electronics experience onboard. 

They were willing to collaborate with us if we explained everything in detail, but we didn’t have the time for this. We wanted a software house to outsource this project to instead of hiring developers and sitting beside them to tell them what to do.

Ideamotive had a holistic approach to our task. They had highly-educated people on board, including in our area, at least in terms of principles. That was enough for them to create this platform.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent $50,000–$60,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with Ideamotive in June or July 2020, and they finished the project after two and a half months.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The platform is more useful to us than we expected when creating the initial plan. It has a lot of graphical elements, which allows us to design components even faster than with expensive market software. We’d be less efficient in designing our power amplifiers without this software.

How did Ideamotive perform from a project management standpoint?

Ideamotive managed the project on their own. They not only gave us software developers, but they actually built the software for us, despite it being extremely complex from a physics and maths point of view. They asked us some questions, but most of the project was done on their side. That was the work style I was looking for.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They’re not afraid to develop very sophisticated and high-tech software for different use cases. Ideamotive does turnkey solutions, and they manage projects on their own. They’re not just another software house that builds marketplaces.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, nothing comes to mind right away. I don’t have a background in software development, but, from a client’s point of view, everything was better than expected for me.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the sole owner of Peddy Corporation of Disruption and Innovation, LLC. I create different technologies to tap into different niche markets.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Ideamotive?

I needed a partner to help develop an MVP and a website.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

During this project, Ideamotive helped with my mobile app by creating UI/UX designs. Their team essentially created a visual prototype of my mobile app’s MVP that I could pitch to investors. I came prepared with examples of designs, and they finished the MVP design in eight days.

Their project manager chose the platform’s most important screens and listed them in Jira for the team to tack on specific days. As their team’s six hours ahead, we had morning meetings every day to review their completed screens. I would review them and then put the task into the completed bin. They would start the next task the next day.

They currently help to design and develop a Shopify website. One of their designers works on the logo while one of their developers overwrites the code. They take a page from Manga and send it to us to enhance. I originally engaged a person in London who made canvasses of the scenes, but it wasn’t a simple process. Ideamotive helped with that process. We’re still in the process of building the site.

What is the team composition?

I mainly work with three people from Ideamotive: Andrii (Software Project Manager), Arthur (UI/UX Designer), and Adam (Head of Design). I’ve also been in contact with Filip (VP of Sales and Partnerships).

How did you come to work with Ideamotive?

While using my university's portal, there was an option to meet with a tech team that could develop and accelerate businesses. I talked with Filip and enjoyed our conversation. I also liked their site and previous design projects. They specialized in creating digital marketplaces, which I wanted to build. That specialization made them an ideal choice.

How much have you invested in them?

I will likely invest between $5,500—$6,000 in total. The prototype cost $2,500, and the website will cost $1,420. There will probably be another invoice for another contract, which will be anywhere between $1,850—$1,200.

What is the status of this engagement?

The project started in September 2020, and it’s ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Although I didn’t win the competition, one of the judges was impressed by the MVP and shocked that I don’t have investors. Based on my presentation's quality, he said that he would be surprised if I didn’t find investors, which validated the design as an asset.

My presentation’s beautiful, so I feel confident pitching investors. The designs visualize my goals and definitely add value. I showed my supporters Ideamotive’s design updates throughout the project. They were impressed by the progress and results. I also love my prototype’s design.

Ideamotive helps with website development, which was a more difficult process than I thought it would be. This has been a good experience. Unlike previous experiences, I’ve gotten what I’ve paid for.

How did Ideamotive perform from a project management standpoint?

I have many meetings with their project manager and their designer. To communicate, we use Jira and Slack. Andrii’s always present in the Slack channels to redirect the project if necessary.

During the design process, their team used Figma, which housed the logos and graphics. I was able to watch them work. If I had any issues, I commented on the platform. They then addressed it by the next day. I liked that a lot.

What did you find most impressive about them?

As far as the graphic design and visual prototype, I’m 100% satisfied with Ideamotive’s services. It wasn't easy to find a team that could execute my wishes. Ideamotive not only executed but also improved my ideas. Although I came prepared, we thought through my ideas, and they genuinely recommended the route to pursue. For a moment, I forgot that I was paying them. I like their entire company.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I was wary at first because it’s difficult to track development. When I wasn’t certain about hours, I asked their project manager, who then sent the time log. We sorted the confusion, and I reviewed the website to see that their team added a significant amount of code.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Come prepared to avoid the consultation. I came prepared with designs, color schemes, a style board, and an idea for the logo. Their team was able to complete the MVP in eight days because I came prepared.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the Founder and CEO of Road.Travel (formerly Timescenery), an All-in-One Trip Planner and Marketplace from London. Road.Travel aggregates data and services from many sources to let you visually plan trips of any kind and complexity.

The technology of one button booking makes self-guided trips as simple as vacation packages by automating bookings of multiple services.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Ideamotive, and what were your goals?

We decided to approach Ideamotive for our project because we were looking for a reliable partner and looking to hire a senior JavaScript/Angular developer to do custom software development. They had a developer perfectly matching our needs, who was working directly with us.

Apart from the minor improvements in our product in general, we had a white-label platform on our roadmap. That was the main thing to be done by Ideamotive, and they delivered that successfully.

There were two goals:

• The first one was building a white-label platform, and they perfectly accomplished this. Thanks to that, we were able to launch the first white-label client. It was the largest and one of the most popular online travel agencies in Germany. That was a massive success for us.
• The second one aimed to work with a distributed team (mainly full-time software developers) that will be able to develop this and future projects for us.

We wanted to test that kind of cooperation and also have some financial savings thanks to that. Outsourcing worked for us very well.

SOLUTION

How did you select Ideamotive and what were the deciding factors?

We were looking for a reliable partner. I’ve asked around, and one of Ideamotive’s past clients and my colleague introduced us to them as a trusted and highly recommended partner. I’ve also done some background research, looked into their portfolio, capabilities, and previous projects.

They seemed very professional, and prior experience in the travel industry and building booking systems was a big plus. Communication was like a breeze, which was also an essential factor for us.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

Road.Travel is the first ever to introduce road trip packages, which are the combination of curated itineraries, pre-calculated roads, recommended places to visit, trip planning features, a budget optimizer, and booking capabilities that help you book everything you need for a road trip in no time.

Over more than two years of cooperation, they introduced many improvements to our main platform, and they built and then developed new features in the aftermentioned white-label platform.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We were working directly with one full-stack senior JavaScript developer with skills in AngularJS. From time to time, I was also in communication with one of the Directors from Ideamotive, and they regularly wanted to make sure I’m pleased with the output they provide.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

Everything was delivered quickly within the timeline and of high quality. All that allowed us to make a huge step forward in terms of our priorities and start new partnerships.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timelines.

The developer they provided us with was directly cooperating with me. He was always highly responsive, proactive and ready to answer all the questions. The communication with Ideamotive’s management was also very good. We communicated through Jira and Slack.

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

Previous experience in the same industry. The professionalism of the developer we’ve worked with. They provided high-quality services with no issues during the process which was crucial for the product back then.

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

I don’t see any area for improvement right now. Everything was perfect.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m a DevOps manager for a telecom company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Ideamotive?

We took on an endeavor of delivering a whole new, groundbreaking digital product. We needed fresh, creative minds and people that could deliver.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

The project involved creating a Greenfield platform from the ground up. They helped with the creative side of things and created a user flow to make it as client-oriented as possible.

What is the team composition?

The team's skillsets ranged from React Native developers to DevOps engineers.

How did you come to work with Ideamotive?

We were discussing what technology to use and decided on React Native. We started to look for React Native companies that had experience and excelled at it. That’s how we came upon Ideamotive.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in January 2018 and the work is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

They provided us with a very capable team that worked well and understood the project. We could see the sacrifices they made for our project. They were sometimes working 12–16 hours a day to deliver our product and making changes and tweaks. Their approach, professionalism, skill, and knowledge was great.

We knew that working by working with them, we had a stable partner we could rely on. They were part of our team, and as a result, our productivity was groundbreaking. The whole team melded together and made it happen.

How did Ideamotive perform from a project management standpoint?

We managed the project from our side and they provided the necessary means. If there was a problem, I relied upon them to resolve it, and they did. One of our team members had to leave for a month, but they provided the means for him to work offsite so that the service wouldn’t be disrupted. They provided continuous service without any disruptions.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They've met my expectations and delivered what I needed. Their efficiency increased in a manner I would expect, and they continue to do things better and faster. They provide us with really high-grade specialists. They really do their homework.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I’m satisfied overall.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Provide them with a description of your vision. It’s crucial in order for them to get hyped about it. Selling the idea is very important.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the managing director of Spectocare, an online platform matching caregivers, masseuses, physiotherapists, and nurses with people in need, mostly the elderly and those with disabilities.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Ideamotive?

I wanted to make my platform more user friendly and easier to navigate.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Ideamotive reworked the overall UI/UX of my site. They consulted me on possible business opportunities, what to change, and how to make those changes. They explained their recommendations.

What is the team composition?

I was in direct contact with one of their principals, and I had an account coordinator and a designer assigned to me.

How did you come to work with Ideamotive?

I found them through a recommendation while I was living in New York, possibly through the Polish community. Ideamotive was also the main designer of an educational website I was using. I thought that they might be suitable for my project, and I contacted them.

How much have you invested with them?

The cost was £2,500 (approximately $2,900 USD). 

What is the status of this engagement?

I contacted them around late-April 2020, and we had a consultation period of about four weeks. The designer started working around May. 

I was supposed to receive the project back in early-June, but the time was extended by two weeks. We had some differences of opinion during July, and I finally received the deliverables and approved them in early-August.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

My developer is still working on it, so I don’t have any results yet. Ideamotive was very collaborative and flexible with me, a non-technical person with no experience in online technologies. I wasn’t always able to use the proper professional language, but they understood what my needs were.

Right now, I’m waiting to receive the final project from my developer, which should be within a week or a week and a half. Unfortunately, I haven’t had the chance to give it to anyone to try, so I don’t have any feedback.

How did Ideamotive perform from a project management standpoint?

They’re very skilled, open, and flexible, and I never felt that I was overwhelming them with my worries and ideas. They were always happy to listen and give me a resolution, and I was very impressed by this. I believe they have a bright future ahead of them. They had plenty of ideas and resolutions. I’ve sent them a proposal for another project, and they gave me feedback that was very advanced on the technology side. I have only good things to say about them.

We used Slack for communication, and the project was delivered on Figma.

What did you find most impressive about them?

I’ve made two web platforms so far, and I’ve worked with a few other companies. The most impressive thing about Ideamotive was how open they were. It gave me a feeling of being taken care of. They never seemed bored or set in their own ideas, and they were there for me one 100%.

Are there any areas they could improve?

They delivered the project as if it were the final version of the job, and I felt like I didn’t have a chance to provide my input. It was a bit unexpected. They asked me to make a payment, and if I had other requests, those would require additional payments.

Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?

They should be very clear about their expectations and specify subsequent changes as part of the contract.
