Custom Software Dev for Loyalty Service Provider
"Not only were they a genuine one-stop-shop for everything from the design to the testing, but they brought passion."
the reviewer
the review
The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
I'm the Chairman of Loyalty Solutions GmbH, a customer loyalty service provider to small and medium sized businesses
For what projects/services did your company hire Ingsoftware, and what were your goals?
We hired ING for a complete redesign and rebuild of our flagship app, Stampshark. The previous version had been developed in-house and simply didn't feel or function professionally enough.
How did you select Ingsoftware and what were the deciding factors?
We found 3 software companies with the right skill sets and a local presence, checked all the online reviews and feedback we could before asking each for a proposal. We selected ING as their proposal showed a very good understanding of what we were trying to achieve at a price point comparable with the other quotes we'd received, and communication with them had been punctual, professional and friendly.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
The scope of this project was to redesign the App and develop a cross-platform solution that will be available both on iOS and Android. The admin portal was also incorporated in the same App, and also added in subscriptions, in-app purchases, Google Ads, and a lot of improvements and new features in comparison to the current App.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
It is hard to say exactly how many people worked on the project as almost all communication was routed through an ING project manager, however we had contact with design consultants, a software architect, multiple developers with different specialties, and testers.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
ING hit every single milestone through the whole project on time and on budget. With the design we were given a choice between options which were all of a high standard, the first release was issued on the day it was promised, and subsequent releases were all ahead of or on time, even when we made unscheduled changes to the specifications.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timelines.
Highly professional project management, regular updates, and immediate repossess to queries. Feature changes & testing results were managed using Trello.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
Not only were they a genuine one-stop-shop for everything from the design to the testing, but they brought passion for our project that I would not have expected to find outside of our own organisation.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
No. Since the completion of this project we have signed a new framework agreement for our next development project. We can't give a better reference than that.

Please describe your company and your position there.
We are a research institute engaged in the foundation of spin-off company based on an in-house developed technology. I am a senior scientist at the research institute (Empa) and CEO of the spin-off company (Urban Sympheny AG)
For what projects/services did your company hire Ingsoftware?
We hired Ingsoftware to develop a Web frontend and backend for our SaaS prototype, to enable the deployment of our technology as a SaaS solution.
What were your goals for this project?
The main goal of the project was to complete a MVP of our SaaS solution which can be presented to pilot customers for testing and validation.
How did you select this vendor?
We originally found them on Clutch, followed up by a detailed discussion of our requirements, and then requested an offer on the basis of which we made our decision.
Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.
At the start of the collaboration, we provided Ingsoftware with a detailed description of our requirements. In a first Discovery phase, we further iterated this set of requirements and Ingsoftware defined a development schedule. After this, development was initiated. We engaged Ingsoftware on a Time & Material basis for a period of ca. 3 months (6 sprints), with a focus on the Web frontend and backend development.
What was the team composition?
On the side of Ingsoftware, most of our interaction was directly with the project manager. The project manager in turn engaged 2-3 other developers for frontend and backed development.
Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?
The results were very much in line with our expectations for this project. We really appreciated the effort and ability of the project manager to understand our requirements from a customer perspective, and to come up with well considered solutions aligned with our priorities. We have subsequently extended our contract with Ingsoftware for a second phase.
How was project management arranged and how effective was it?
Most of our communication with Ingsoftware was through a project manager. The project manager has done an excellent job managing the process and meeting the deadlines, and has been responsive to our requests and realistic in his time estimates for different features. The main tools used include Google Meet, Slack, Jira and Bitbucket.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
We were initially attracted to Ingsoftware for 2 reasons, their reasonable pricing and their track record of work with startups. In particular the latter of these has meant that we are able to align with Ingsoftware effectively on development priorities.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Not at this time.

Custom Web Development for Basketball Gaming App
"We find their team responsive and accurate in communication, and their project management is excellent!"

The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am a Game designer, project leader and also founder of Webelinx. We develop casual free-to-play mobile games and diverse apps for daily use for Android and iOS. Our goal is to create the best high-quality apps and games for our users.
For what projects/services did your company hire Ingsoftware?
The first project we entrusted Ingsoftware with was web application development for internal administration.
After they had successfully developed our administration system, we realized what they were capable of doing and we tasked them with a big project we were planning on developing for years - a basketball management game.
I have been playing a certain basketball management game for more than 10 years and I always thought that its gameplay and functionalities needed large improvements.
Therefore we started to make plans for the game and we need a reliable and responsible team with great experience in the development of robust systems like this - a team which could materialize my idea.
Ingsoftware wrote the first line of the code for our game in March 2016 and our collaboration is still going strong to this day.
What were your goals for this project?
My first goal was to create MVP of the game - first playable web-based game. At the very beginning of our collaboration, we had been working on a UI/UX responsive design and creating web pages upon it.
The main goal and hardest part of the development process were making an engine that simulates entire basketball matches in prime detail. This engine is the core of the game and it had to work flawlessly so the game could be as life-like as possible.
The developers needed to come up with algorithms for the whole game. When using the interface of the app, users can manage players and tactics which would result in matching them with the best possible result.
Another big part where these algorithms are used is player trading. This turned out to be the most interesting part of the game for the users, so extra effort was put into making the system for real-time processing of player trading and open market system.
A large (invisible) part of the web app is an admin panel. This is an internal part of the game and only admins have access to it. Nonetheless, it is crucial for the game as the admins manage the details and finesse of the game day-to-day.
Admins have the ability to track statistics and monitor e-commerce tools. Other things that admins can manage are game settings, game news creation and cheat detection system. Thanks to the admin panel, the game is managed in the best way possible.
Another option that we wanted them to make is pro user accounts which had privileged access to special features. With pro users we needed in-game payments, so Ingsoftware made payment processing integrations for Google Pay, Paypal, Paymentwall and Fortumo.
One of the most important things in a game like this is developing time zone awareness and multi-language options, as our users are based all over the world and the game now supports more than 20 languages.
In addition to having the game in their language, users have matches scheduled in their local time which allows them to plan accordingly if they intend to watch the game live.
In order to handle substantial growth of user numbers, the game was designed and developed with scalability in mind and is currently using multiple servers so everything can work perfectly without any delays, slow loading or bugs.
All the goals that we set for Ingsoftware have been successfully met, so now we have a product that has a responsive design, the whole game has real-time processing of player trading and the matches are time-zone based with multi-language support.
The game has pro player accounts with premium features and in-game payment for multiple platforms. Back-end scalability was handled very well, so the game now works perfectly.
Platforms, coding languages and custom integrations which are used for our game are:
- Platforms: Web and Android at the moment
- iOS planned Tech Stack: NET, MS-SQL, JavaScript, Unity
- Custom integrations: SignalR for client-server communication (basketball match watching, player market live auctions, event notifications for the mobile app)
- payment processing integrations: Google Pay, Paypal, Paymentwall, Fortumo.
How did you select this vendor?
Having successfully developed and deployed the internal administration project for our company, we realized just how skillful and reliable Ingsoftware is. We acknowledged the high level of experience, resources and knowledge project managers, developers and designers have and decided to confide our MBT project to them.
Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.
MBT is a free online multiplayer basketball manager game in which the user takes charge of a virtual basketball club and manages all aspects of the club like: Players, Training, Tactics, Finances, Transfers, Facilities, etc.
In addition to just plain player management, the game includes handling player fatigue, injuries, firing, buying and selling, the game has many other options. Users have the option to train and level up their players and team and then decide if they’ll proceed to match rosters or trade on the transfer market. They can play friendly matches via the invitation system, or by using an automated matchmaking feature.
Every club has its own appearance - they can use their creativity and make custom-designed team emblems and jerseys or buy an existing jersey from the shop which has a wide selection of pre-made jerseys.
The My Basketball Team game has Regional Leagues, Champions League and National basketball competitions. Every user participates in one National competition, but only a small selection of best teams make it to the Champions League.
The most successful 32 teams in each country that didn't make it to Champions League are participating in a similar competition, Regional League in which they compete against teams from their geographical region.
Every user has insights in statistics - they have the option to monitor their and opponents’ match and player statistics, competition success and player transfer history. With these insights players can strategically manage the game and decide how to play and where to invest.
Speaking of finances, MBT has a finance management option where every expense and earning is monitored and contracts can be managed. Buying TV rights can significantly affect the user’s playstyle.
Another thing that will significantly influence the success of the player are facilities. There are various facilities that can be built to help the club grow.
- In Arena users have chance to upgrade the capacity of arena and earn more income from tickets and merchandise
- Youth Academy offers a rookie scouting option once per week so users can recruit a young talented player to join their ranks
- Training Facility gives users the ability to unlock higher level of skill training and upgrade players even more
- Medical Facility provides an opportunity for advanced medical care of players and reduce injury duration
- Rest & Recovery Facility serves a purpose of managing player fatigue
- Entertainment Facility exists for player form management.
Users can share their experience or feedback with the community or participate in various community-driven events via the User Forum. Users can follow all the global or team related news in the News and Notification section.
Ingsoftware developed the Administration panel for internal use. This panel contains various game statistics and e-commerce monitoring tools, game settings, game news creation and cheat detection system.
Admin panel helps us track the game and make sure that everything is in order and the game is cheat free. I am the Project Owner and my team and I were the ones who planted the seed for this project.
We came up with the idea and delivered the design and Ingsoftware’s part in this project was to provide Strategy, Web Design, development and support. We collaborated every step of the way and communicated without any problems. Any bugs or misunderstandings we solved without any fuss and in the fastest way possible.
What was the team composition?
A total of 15 people worked on my project. The team was made of 7 back-end developers, 2 front-end developers, 4 Unity developers and 2 Web designers.
Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?
The project works great and we have more and more users every day. We create a very active game community, which was our goal for this year.
How was project management arranged and how effective was it?
Our teams worked as one and collaborated on a daily basis without any problems. We find their team responsive and accurate in communication, and their project management is excellent! Tools which we used in collaboration are Trello, Skype and Google Tools (Gmail, Drive, Docs, Sheets).
What did you find most impressive about this company?
It’s amazing how Ingsoftware’s employees combine experience and innovation in development. Their managers are highly professional and responsible. Communicating with them was very easy and they are open for collaboration and new challenges.
No problem was left unsolved by this team. Meeting deadlines is just one of their many qualities and we know that we can rely on this team. We highly recommend Ingsoftware!
Are there any areas for improvement?
Everything worked fine.

They needed to fulfill end-client requests and seamlessly integrate new modules into existing software, specifically Visionic, our flagship product.

We wanted them to build the new module with new web technologies for easy maintenance, modification, and future development. We also wanted to ensure the solution’s stability and reliability as part of an improved UX.
How did you select this vendor?
INGSOFTWARE pitched their competencies and interest at a bilateral meeting with our respective Chambers of Commerce. We saw the potential for a strong partnership for not only development, but also support and advice.
Can you go into detail about the services they provided and the scope of the project?
INGSOFTWARE analyzed our clients' requirements for the new application before outlining a solution. The team then developed a program for easy and efficient management of multiple integrated receiver decoders (IRDs) and transmission chains. They integrated the later into our Visionic product. We sent it to the end-client for beta-testing and review.
What was the team composition?
We worked with one project manager and three developers.

After first connecting over Skype, both development and engineering team have communicated directly with each other. INGSOFTWARE’s team is transparent and fast to answer questions and requests.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
INGSOFTWARE contributed much more than software development; they actively provided advice, new technologies, and additional solutions. Their in-house expertise and adaptability continues to impress us.
Are there any areas where they can improve?
They should continue to invest in employee training while working with other companies to gain experience and knowledge.

I am the CTO of a company that provides pricing and margin solutions based on distribution data.
For what projects/services did your company hire INGSOFTWARE?
We hired them to upgrade our legacy software, which had serious problems due to poor and inconsistent data entry, bad reporting, bugs, etc. It needed to be upgraded with better software structure and clean code.
What were your goals for this project?
Our goal was to develop a software that would reliably reproduce the functionalities of the older system. We wanted a stable system that would be easy to maintain. In addition, we had a very short timeline.
How did you select this vendor?
They were recommended by our previous vendor. There were other possible vendors, but most of them were disqualified due to inexperience or the estimated total cost. Since the project was such a high priority, it was essential to choose a results-driven partner who could also provide reliable support.
Can you go into detail about the services they provided and the scope of the project?
INGSOFTWARE designed, developed, configured, and launched a new platform for distribution and sales. The solution manages everything: employees, products, prices, discounts, orders, reporting, invoicing, retail, etc.

Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?
They quickly stabilized the platform, with most of the bugs and problems resolved within the first few months. A lot of the improvements were suggested by the development team during key sprints. Now, our software is more optimized and automated. It has less errors, provides better reports, and helps us in everyday business. Given how well they performed, we extended our engagement with INGSOFTWARE.
How was project management arranged and how effective was it?
Compared with our previous vendor, their project management was very impressive. There were no delays and all of our deadlines were met. In addition to regular emails, we communicated via Skype and used Jira. They were responsive and highly professional. They also communicated well with our previous PM, which was a big plus.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
We were impressed with their professional approach and ability to scale. They quickly understood the problem and had the technical expertise we needed.

the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I'm the CEO of a technology company that brings performance metrics to youth soccer coaches in the U.S. and abroad.
What challenge were you trying to address with INGSOFTWARE?
We used ING for two projects. We first worked with them to produce an iOS mobile application that communicates with the Beyond Pulse smart belt to capture performance metrics from players. We're currently working on a second project to create a database and improve the coach dashboard.
What was the scope of their involvement?
The hardware is a belt with a sensor module worn on the players' chest just below their breastbone. The module has both a heart rate sensor and an accelerometer to capture data while the player goes through a practice session. At the end of the session, the app sucks up the data from multiple players into a local storage location on the iPhone. We feed that data into a database in the cloud. An API interprets that data and delivers it to the coach dashboard so that it’s represented in a useful way.
What is the team composition?
We have little insight into the team behind the project manager, but I believe there are three developers.
How did you come to work with INGSOFTWARE?
They were recommended to us by the provider of the smart belt hardware.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve spent about $50,000–$60,000 so far but the whole project will likely be north of $200,000 dollars.
What is the status of this engagement?
We began working with them in August of 2017. It's an ongoing relationship; in fact, it's an increasing relationship.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
I'm not technical enough to tell you what underlying technology they used, but I know the challenge in dealing with the smart belt was pretty significant. They’ve managed to get the performance metrics to a point where we're happy with the product as are the end users.
How did INGSOFTWARE perform from a project management standpoint?
The biggest strength in working with ING is our project manager, who is one of the one of the best I've ever dealt with. Originally we used just email and Skype to communicate with them. We’ve since begun communicating via Slack and that's working particularly well.
What did you find most impressive about them?
The level of project management is some of the best—if not the best—I've ever seen.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Because the project management is so good the onus is on the client to be just as good in order to maximize the relationship.
