Magebit

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

They understood the level of urgency of the project. The website was crashing and unstable, and they worked diligently to get it on track. They quickly understood problems that arose and got them fixed quickly. 

Since they fixed the site, there has been an increase in traffic, revenue has increased monthly, and the user experience seems to be good. 

How did Magebit perform from a project management standpoint?

They’re accessible, organized, and accommodating. Jira is the primary tool we use, and I have an open line of communication with the developers any time I need to discuss things with them. Communication is good.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They allow us to have direct communication with the developers. This helps the project to run more efficiently, making our work easier and the execution of tasks quicker. I really appreciate this.

Are there any areas they could improve?

They could use more rigorous quality assurance before the deployment of each task.

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

Proactive support in the successful planning, execution, monitoring, controlling and closure of this project has not been a strength.  This project is not yet complete as of Jan 2020 despite being a year in development.

Other then that, I found Magebit developers to be extremely professional, patient, and clearly know their stuff.  They are excellent at explaining things, even to non-technical people.  

Despite not being live, this been a mainly positive experience.  Estimates for time have been quite reliable.  We would recommend Magebit's services and look forward to continuing to work with them after we launch this thing.

How did Magebit perform from a project management standpoint?

They’re working with just me, and I’m not very technical at all, so they’ve been extremely helpful with explaining whatever we were working on at the time and answering all my questions. They always understood exactly what was being asked of them, and they were very clear about establishing a direction for the project given basic instructions from me. It’s been a great experience from start to finish.

What did you find most impressive about them?

My website connects to two brick and mortar stores, and I don’t think they had done a lot of POS work before working with me, but they did a great job of digging into that and figuring out how to develop some pretty unique subscription and inventory functionality anyway. They’ve done a wonderful job.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I’m not sure if usability has been addressed yet, so I’m not sure how that’s going be, but that’s just a matter of things we won’t be able to determine until after launch, not something I would necessarily complain about.

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

Magebit delivered two high-quality and fully functional websites that have never crashed or had downtime that impacted the customer experience. They rapidly deliver on all our ideas and solve every problem we identify quickly and correctly.

I found it particularly impressive how accurately they translated our ideas into concrete designs based on our short dialogue sessions. They captured our desired look and feel in a cutting-edge website we’re very pleased with. 

Unlike past developers we’ve used, Magebit is very reliable. They’ve never put us in line behind other clients or taken multiple weeks for tasks to get done. Our line of business sees frequent and unexpected changes, so keeping pace is critical.

I appreciate the team's reliability, ease of communication, and quality of work. The most important result they’ve produced has been giving our business peace of mind. I can always rely on Magebit to keep everything running smoothly. They’re so responsive, efficient, realizable, and skilled that I never have to worry about the results.

How did Magebit perform from a project management standpoint?

Despite a 12-hour time zone difference, the developers are always willing to answer my questions when I get to work in the morning, even though it's late at night for them. They're consistently available online, responsive, and open to problem-solving outside the standard workday. 

Magebit uses Alison software to track all the ongoing tasks. We can open new tickets and communicate through that platform. They're very organized and detail-oriented. The team stays organized by logging their tasks and progress. 

For all our requests, they provide accurate timeline and cost estimates. They're flexible about prioritizing and escalating urgent matters. Everything they launch on our site is thoroughly tested first. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

MageBit's knowledge of the latest industry trends was invaluable. They considered what worked well in the marketplace when developing our site. When they suggested using Magento, they explained why it was the right platform for our needs. The team’s informed advice saved us time spent researching technology options. 

All the aspects of building a website can be daunting and stressful, but Magebit made the whole process feel easy. They took initiative and used discretion about pitching ideas. Since I'm not a web developer or graphic designer, I appreciated their wealth of knowledge about what to include for the best customer experience and overall appearance. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I’ve been very happy with their work overall. There's no constructive feedback I can think of at this point.
