Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?
JetThoughts team helped us to significantly reduce costs of application maintenance by implementing best practices and making our development pipeline stable. They’ve set up the process to work in a remote and async environment between the 2 teams, which continues to produce stable results.
The streamlined project onboarding takes less for new people, reduced risks related to the bus factor, and the whole working process around new features takes way less time for new people and goes smoother. Also, they have delivered a new sub-project, which reduces our expenses we have been spending on similar services.
How was project management arranged and how effective was it?
Guys cleaned up our code, brought some great routines, which allowed us to get our workflows more organized, and enhanced our app. We were flexible to manage every part of the development with their simple framework, utilizing it saved a lot of time. Kanban board, regular updates, agile workflow, etc. kept the whole process crystal clear.
They have also handled product development, QA testing, staging, and live production. We spoke directly, without proxies preventing any problems and miscommunication.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
Usually, in my experience, contractors are either highly talented but lacking in communication skills or vice versa. Guys from JetThoughts got the best of both worlds. They implemented easy ways to manage the flow of a distributed team and support high-quality code and development overall.
Their team was also detailed and precise, helping us to find problems before they appear. We knew exactly what was happening and where we were going the whole time.
Are there any areas for improvement?
I'd say the only thing was, they didn't have enough Data Engineers and DevOps people in their team, which was sometimes necessary. I wish I could submit something else to this field, but any issues we experienced were always worked out.
The solutions provided by the JetThoughts team have been successful so far, streamlining internal processes, reducing costs, and helping to implement best practices. They are incredibly reliable, managing development and QAing themselves to produce high-quality, bug-free results.
