BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm the marketing director of a Danish company that specializes in marketing, advertisement, and event management.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Impero IT Services Pvt. Ltd?

I had a concept for a mobile app that allowed singles to find other singles at nearby restaurants. I approached Impero IT Pvt. Ltd to build my idea.

What were your goals for this project?

The main objective was to develop the app. Once I told them my idea, they helped me understand all of the app’s scenarios and suggested the best solutions to implement my concept.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

Raza Noorani (CEO, Impero IT Pvt. Ltd) was in a business group with my partner, so we reached out to him for some potential solutions. They provided us with a splendid way to realize our idea. After such a productive conversation, we decided to continue the project with them. 

Describe the project in detail.

Impero IT Services Pvt. Ltd developed our mobile app for singles. People can use the app to check into locations (e.g., restaurants, etc.) and find other singles who’ve also checked in; likewise, users can easily find them, too. The app also allows users to rate places where they’ve checked in, set their favorite locations and other preferences, and then access available offers for those spots.

What was the team composition?

During the initial phase, we were in touch with the CEO of the company. Afterward, we communicated with the project manager during the development process for work updates. They also had a team of five members working in the background.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Realizing this idea has been a success in and of itself. We’re finally ready to launch our singles app, and we are excited to see people using it. As a marketing company, we plan to enroll at least 10,000 users in the next couple of months to start using the app.

They have exceeded our expectations by developing a firm baseline for the project and inspiring confidence for the future.

Are there any areas for improvement?

They could have provided more detailed timelines so that we could better schedule the user testing. Testing an app like this requires prior planning as we have to imitate real-life scenarios, which could be better planned if anticipated properly.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I'm the general manager at a company that provides IT services. 

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Impero IT Services Pvt. Ltd.?

We hired Impero IT Services Pvt. Ltd. for mobile app development to support a project for our client. 

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

One of our clients required a mobile app for his library, which includes almost 3,000 books. He wanted an app to identify which books he already owned so that he could organize his collection.

 Impero IT Services Pvt. Ltd. designed and developed the entire app from scratch. They built the product for the Android platform. We didn't have to provide them with any wireframes or designs.

What is the team composition? 

I don't know how many teammates worked on the backend, because I only interacted with one person. Impero IT Services Pvt. Ltd. assigned a project coordinator to interface with me. 

How did you come to work with Impero IT Services Pvt. Ltd.?

During my search process, I used Google to find companies based in India that could develop our mobile app. I contacted a few different vendors, and Impero IT Services Pvt. Ltd. was the best option. They were much better than any of the other vendors I considered. 

How much have you invested with them?

We spent $500–$600. 

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together between March–April 2017. The project was ready to launch in about three weeks.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm the director of The Clubman App and an active community member of the Gaelic Athletic Association, an international amateur sporting and cultural organization focused primarily on promoting indigenous Gaelic games. 

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Impero IT Services Pvt. Ltd?

We hired Impero IT Services Pvt. Ltd to develop a native mobile application that integrated with Twitter APIs. 

What were your goals for this project?

Each club dedicated resources to updating their game scores on Twitter; we wanted to save human effort by automating this process. We also wanted to remove human error and eliminate formatting mistakes while allowing anyone to tweet accurate game scores in real time. 

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We found them online, where their reviews seemed decent. We sent them an inquiry, and they replied promptly. After discussing the problem, they researched Twitter APIs and responded quickly with possible options. Their quote was reasonable and their communication was professional. 

Describe the project in detail.

Using our unique template, the app dynamically creates tweets and pushes them to all our followers. It effectively manages time calculations, player replacement, goal updates, fouls, and half-times. They also created universal formats for each of these events. The interface has intuitive graphics, so all our users need to do is click.

What was the team composition?

We dealt primarily with our project manager and client communicator. We had one UI/UX designer, one Android and one iOS developer, and one backend developer who specialized in .NET. We also had a tester who provided QA. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The results were better than we expected. Most of our clubs now use this app to update their followers with live scores. We had more than 600 downloads. Since club managers only use the app, that's a great figure. Overall feedback is positive, so we achieved what we needed.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We communicated using WhatsApp. Our project manager was always available, and we never had problems because of the time difference. Their team promptly implemented the necessary updates, especially when we needed to make urgent changes after releasing the app.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I was impressed by their professionalism, cost, and transparency. Their rates were unbeatable; they built an app for just 30% of what local companies charged. They also gave us the entire source code after the final payment, as per their standard practice. That was impressive.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Twitter disabled our API because of the large number of automated tweets originating from our platform. It took three days to convince them that the tweets weren't spam. It would have been great if Impero IT Services Pvt. Ltd had anticipated this issue. However, I'm not sure if that was their fault.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

What were your goals for this project?

Our objective was to deliver weekly driver reporting to our client's divisions.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We chose them based on our positive previous experience working together.

Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.

After drafting the requirements, we analyzed the API. Impero IT Services Pvt. Ltd created and optimized Big Data clusters, then built, ran, and optimized big data queries. They plotted graphs and scheduled email reports. Finally, they handled testing and production to roll out the solution.

What was the team composition?

We worked with developers, testers, and a project manager from their team.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

We’re a company that provides software to individuals and organizations that facilitates sports player development and training at a young age.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Impero IT Services?

We needed assistance executing on our idea and creating apps for iOS and Android.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Impero built native apps for iOS and Android that allow coaches of all different sports to assess players and teach fundamental skills. They created the platform so a coach can input a result in the most user-friendly way possible. That information is then stored on the back-end, which I have access to, and all that information is collated. The granular information is gathered into thousands and thousands of players, and you can get real data from it. It's a native app.

What is the team composition?

I liaised mainly with our project manager, Raja. We worked very well together. He was almost always available and would pass me off to another manager on the rare occasions he wasn’t. In those circumstances, the new contact was completely up-to-date on our project. Altogether, their team was about 10 people.

How did you come to work with Impero IT Services?

We were unhappy with a previous vendor in Ireland, and pricing for outsourced development in the area is extremely expensive. We looked at offshore companies for a less expensive, more reliable option. I contacted a few different companies and was very happy with Impero. Their portfolio, staff, and cost structure made them a very reasonable option. I've been dealing with them for a good while now, and they're very honest. They consistently follow through on their promises and stand by their initial quote. They're very flexible, and I couldn't rate them higher.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent £15,000–£20,000 ($18,500–$24,700).

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in June 2017, and the project ended in December.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Since launching the apps, we have about 5,000 downloads. Coaches use the app for a large number of players, and we have about 10,000 players registered with the app so far. We’re measuring the amount of player/coach engagement and looking to expand as we move forward.

How did Impero IT Services perform from a project management standpoint?

The communication was stellar, and they were consistently available when we needed them. They were honest, friendly, and forthright with any concerns that came up. We’ve worked with companies in the past that don’t value transparency, and Impero was a refreshing change of pace.

They also took time to understand the details of our project, even before we formally agreed to bring them on. They were meticulous and provided substantive input on the app’s usability/functionality. I felt that they understood my goals and trusted them to build apps that reflected them. Communication was mainly through WhatsApp, Skype, email. I used TestFlight for testing the apps on my end.

What did you find most impressive about them?

We really appreciated their honesty, friendliness, and attention to detail from the start of the project. They're genuinely nice people and they’re very good at their jobs.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, nothing comes to mind.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I'd say just give them a call. Their appeal is very self-explanatory. They’re very professional and they stand out from their competitors. Get them on the phone, connect with them, and you'll see the difference.
