InfiniOne

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the head of acquisitions at a real estate firm. My team is responsible for sourcing and acquiring real estate deals. We source and analyze real estate deals across the country. 

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire InfiniOne?

We're always modernizing our workflow and weren’t happy with any of the technology solutions available. We needed a mobile app that could track locations under review, especially when our team is on the road.

What were your goals for this project?

We needed to create an intuitive iOS app that would ideally reduce the amount of time required to access data across a variety of platforms. 

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We initially found InfiniOne through a Google search. We had many conference calls and demonstrations over the ensuing months. Our specs changed as they relayed feedback and inquiries. InfiniOne was the natural, obvious choice.

Describe the project in detail.

The technology we needed didn't exist, so they built a custom solution and adding map and manual entry functionalities. The app brings together multiple data sources. It centralizes text, multimedia, research, and other relevant information for each property.

What was the team composition?

Two developers and a QA engineer worked on the project full-time. We had access to senior leadership when necessary.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Every member of our team has adopted the app. It has become an integral part of our workflow, dramatically cutting down on inefficiencies and helping us focus on the core of our business. InfiniOne has made sure that the UX is easy to understand and that it conforms to our needs.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

It was extremely effective. Their weekly sprints surprised me at first, but I now see why they used them. This process gives me real-time insight and helps me provide feedback at the appropriate times. I could chat with the developers directly and wasn't limited to a project manager.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I'm impressed by their transparency and the quality of their work. They didn't agree to everything we requested, but instead provided constructive feedback on product and technology decisions.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Aside from general tweaks for personal preference, nothing comes to mind.
