OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What specific goals or objectives did you hire Interexy to accomplish?

• Assist the move to CI/CD
• Help settle on core app development approach (i.e., WASM vs. Flutter vs. other).

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

We contacted Interexy to get help with CI/CD implementation, including test automation, in our app team, help with creating a more modular approach to make it easier to reuse componets across many apps, and for help with validating our technology choices for our app development (WASM, Flutter, native, other).

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

• Ensure solid understanding of CI/CD in team
• Demonstrate CI/CD pipecleaner flow
• Hands-on based result for aiding technology choices for app
• Modular architecture for new app dev paradigm

We did not get what we hoped for, in terms of understanding and implementation of CI/CD. We also did not get the tech help to the tech valuation (e.g. WASM test and hw app debugging - this was carried out by our own engineers).

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Our PM has been reacting to all needs and have tried her best to keep up with what we wanted. We are hard to work with, as we have a deep understanding of tech, and also of what CI/CD is and is not. It is clear that Interexy is very adapt at working with Agile (SCRUM and likely SAFE), and less used to work with CI/CD. 

Further, we do not care so much about detailed process and architecture documentation, which counters how many more traditional companies would approach app dev. So - our very nice, professional, and structured PM, has had a hard time, as what we are after is outside the usual comfort zone. 

What was your primary form of communication with Interexy?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

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

They are very willing to try to get things to work and very good at following up on deliveries. Our PM has really gone over and beyond in trying to cater for us.

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

Yes. Hire people with very deep tech knowhow (system engineers/hw engineers). Also, when venturing into a new setup with a customer, make sure that the requirements are well understood and within the domain of what can be delivered on (e.g. CI/CD seemed to be a new concept and so did troubleshooting on the hw level).

We were looking for a company who could take our idea and turn it to reality. We needed a platform for university graduates to be able to come and easily verify and tokenize their educational credentials.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We have just wrapped up our build sprints with Interexy and are already receiving healthy traction. Universities have a demand and immyoutable is supplying a quality product.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Interexy did really well with planning for a project with a lot of uncertainty. Some sprints took additional days, but they never under-delivered on those sprints. The task was always completed. Along the process we changed, edited, and even eliminated features. They are very familiar with how to handle ever changing startups.

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

The first thought that comes to mind is how Interexy can bring any idea to fruition. No task was too complex or challenging for their team.

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

If you are a bootstrapped startup, I suggest adding in extra budgeting for app development. It is not something that is specifically Interexy's fault, but we did go over budget. App development comes at a hefty price tag, so be ready to pay a premium.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I work at Crate.io as a lead engineer for one of the company’s three products. My role involves leading the technical team for this product.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Interexy?

We needed more development power on our mobile app.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Interexy provides us with staff augmentation. They’ve provided a mobile app developer who has integrated with our internal development team. The developer has inherited the codebase from our existing mobile app and developed more features. They work with React Native for the framework and also use GraphQL and REST APIs. 

More recently, Interexy has also provided a UI/UX designer. We’ve given them guidelines for how we need them to work and our expectations. They work with Figma. 

What is the team composition?

I mostly work with three teammates: a mobile app developer, a UI/UX designer, and an account manager. Additionally, someone from Interexy’s higher management is involved, though we only interact with them if necessary. 

How did you come to work with Interexy?

When I joined the team, we already had an ongoing collaboration with Interexy, so I wasn’t involved in the early steps of the engagement. 

How much have you invested with them?

We spent €6,000 (approximately $6,400 USD) per month when we only had the developer, and we’ve spent €9,000–€10,000 (approximately $9,700–$11,000 USD) per month since we onboarded the UI/UX designer. In total, we’ve spent €60,000–€70,000 (approximately $64,000–$75,000 USD) with Interexy. 

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with the mobile app developer in May 2022 and with the UI/UX designer in November 2022. Our engagement with Interexy is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Interexy's resources are tightly integrated with our team, and they've had a very good impact. The developer has worked very well with us; he's very responsive and communicative and quickly got up to speed. Moreover, he's capable from a technical perspective. Our internal developers work remotely, and when we planned a social event, they asked if the Interexy developer could join us because they feel he's part of the team. 

As for UI/UX design, our interface has a visual difference, though Interexy's impact isn't easy to quantify. Still, I was surprised by how quickly they could provide a good candidate matching our specialized needs. The onboarding process was very smooth, with support from their side. 

Since I took over the collaboration with Interexy, their communication and support have been great, especially from the account manager. We planned this engagement as a temporary setup, but the experience has been so good that we've extended our partnership. I'd be happy to seek further help from Interexy in the future. 

How did Interexy perform from a project management standpoint?

The account manager's support is excellent; she's always finding ways to improve and consistently identifies any issues. She's also very open to feedback, making problem-solving easy for me. The developer works with our Scrum team and joins daily meetings. We use Azure DevOps with the team, which is our project management tool. 

For official requests, we use email. Once Interexy teammates are integrated with the internal team, most communication happens through Slack or Zoom meetings. Additionally, I have regular sync meetings with the account manager via Zoom to exchange feedback about the resources and solve any issues. Through these calls, Interexy proposed the UI/UX designer. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

I'm impressed with Interexy's communication skills, the quality of their resources, and their cost-effectiveness. When we needed a UI/UX designer, I looked at other options and found much higher rates than the ones Interexy has provided. They give us excellent service at a very competitive price. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

Their level of English communication could be better. However, this has never been a significant issue. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Hurry up and go for Interexy — it's a no-brainer!

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO of Anatomia. We’re a mobile application for patients suffering from mild to moderate depression. We treat them with physical activity, lessons, and follow-up calls. Overall, we measure their well-being and physical capacity.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Interexy?

We needed help with mobile application development and UX/UI design services.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Interexy developed our mobile application, its UI, and its admin panel. We started with the preparation stage, which included several hours to set up our goals and the product development program. They had many questions during this stage; we drew our thoughts in Miro and showed them the boards. Then, we moved on to sprints; there were four sprints in total. 

The app was an onboarding system for patients. Users could onboard the program by logging in with their Swedish bank IDs to verify the patient. Then, users answered questions, including age, name, and gender. Additionally, there was a health questionnaire with nine questions that ranged from sleep and physical activity to concentration ability and lust for life.

Patients would be assigned to a physiotherapist, who would guide them through the program. They’d start with a physical training program, but the physiotherapist would also follow up daily through messages and follow-up calls on the first, sixth, and tenth weeks.

What is the team composition?

We worked with seven people, including front- and backend developers, QA people, business analysts, and project managers.

How did you come to work with Interexy?

Someone from our team recommended Interexy. They knew them from another company.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent about $75,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked on the project from September–November 2022.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Interexy has fixed some significant bugs and made the app stable. The application is out in the App Store and Google Play Store. We’ve tested with real patients and gotten a lot of feedback about the onboarding process and changes we could make, but the feedback has been good overall.

How did Interexy perform from a project management standpoint?

Communication was clear. The project manager kept us updated with the budget and development. We faced some obstacles on the way, especially with the bank integration, which increased the cost and delayed the product a bit. However, it was a smooth process and a good collaboration overall.

We mainly communicated through Slack and video meetings, but we also used Confluence and Jira for project management.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They stood out for their communication and project management skills. They kept deadlines and stayed within the budget.

Are there any areas they could improve?

The bank ID integration was challenging. We’d never done it, but it was especially well-suited for healthcare providers like us.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I’d definitely recommend them. However, if you integrate the bank ID, maybe consider using an external expert.

We had weekly touchpoints where we would discuss project updates, upcoming milestones and overall goals and expectations. We'd communicate via slack on a daily basis. The Interexy team was always very responsive.

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

Our team is not technical. The Interexy team took the necessary time to explain to us what was needed and served as a trusted advisor in addition to great technical work.

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

Nothing comes to mind.

Our team was delighted with Interexy's work.

How did Interexy perform from a project management standpoint?

Our project manager was incredible; they delivered everything on schedule and budget, which is the best metric for our agency. Regarding tools, they led a seamless process using Jira and Slack.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their consistency and the care they put into clients' relations are outstanding. Also, they put great quality in their work — they're a meticulous team in QA, which is great.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Since they have many agents based abroad, they could be more self-aware of the location-specific standards of every region regarding dates or number formatting and everything along those lines.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

If you communicate your expectations thoroughly and check in constantly with them, you'll be happy with the results.
