Magora exceeded the client's expectations by delivering high-quality deliverables and insights. Their communication was good, and it was a fluid collaboration. They were committed to addressing needs and presenting inventive solutions. The client appreciated the project's fixed price and schedule.
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I'm the project manager for a medical device startup. We specialize in manufacturing medical devices and software as a medical device (SaMD).
Our company offers services to various clinical centers known as hubs. We provide training, assistance, and support for our procedures, which primarily involve biopsies and prostate cancer treatment.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Magora?
Our application has been in use for over six years. It collects various data about patients and procedures. We were searching for a provider to help us with a new application.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Magora took the time to thoroughly evaluate and confirm the business needs by meeting with various stakeholders and interviewing the team during the discovery phase. This ensured that the project aligned with the organization's goals and objectives. They dug into the main pain points and what we needed to prioritize. It was an exciting phase, and the collaboration went very well.
We initially planned to create a mobile app. Still, we opted for a web-based app for better cost-effectiveness instead of developing separate iOS and Android apps.
We are currently using a PHP backend and Android/iOS frontends. However, we are facing the challenge of managing three different code bases. One solution proposed is to retain the PHP backend while optimizing it. Additionally, the team recommended implementing progressive web development, whereby the app opens in the browser upon launch.
What is the team composition?
We worked with 3–4 people from Magora's team. Initially, we communicated with a sales representative. Later, we collaborated with two business analysts, and once we began the project, we were assigned an account manager.
Are there any employees from the service provider's team that you would like to give a shout-out to in this review?
Andrew (Business Development Manager) consistently ensured the project ran smoothly by regularly checking in. Alexander (System Architect) and Mikhail (Frontend Developer) were exceptional in their respective roles. They provided valuable insights and consistently performed at a high level. Overall, we were pleased with the entire team's performance.
How did you come to work with Magora?
We found Magora on Clutch. Among the different providers we interviewed, Magora stood out. We were particularly impressed by their discovery phase approach.
How much have you invested in them?
We invested £5,000 Pounds (approximately $6,400 USD).
What is the status of this engagement?
We worked with Magora from April–May 2023.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Overall, Magora exceeded our expectations. We can attribute the project's success to its fixed price and schedule. As a small business, we must clearly understand the project's cost and delivery timeline. Therefore, we greatly appreciated the fixed price and the team's utmost professionalism. We received quality deliverables and great insights from the team.
More seasoned colleagues paired up with junior members of the team. Magora's team provided valuable insights, and we were pleased with the overall outcome.
One of the final requirements was a comprehensive proposal for the new application, which we reviewed with the team. Unfortunately, we couldn't proceed due to limitations with our business and budget.
How did Magora perform from a project management standpoint?
The communication was good. We defined the communication channels at the beginning of the project, and everything was very fluid.
We utilized Teams for daily communication and Jira and Confluence for project management. Everyone was happy in the end.
What did you find most impressive about them?
We were very impressed with the business analysts and their insights about our business. They rapidly became familiar with our procedures and staff, allowing them to comprehend our challenges fully.
Are there any areas they could improve?
I don't have any areas for improvement at this time.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
My recommendation is to take a look at Magora's reviews on Clutch and reach out to those who have left a review to gain insights into their previous experiences with the company, including their strengths and weaknesses. Doing that may require a few days of effort, but will be beneficial.

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the senior digital project manager at a digital transformation company.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Magora Systems?
We hired Magora Systems to help us develop a healthcare product.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Magora Systems developed the MVP of an iOS and Android mobile app focused on telemedicine. It helps manage information about diseases, surgeries, dental interventions, and hospitals. Users can log in to the app to book appointments and search for services, hospitals, and general practitioners (GP). It is also integrated into GP surgeons' and hospitals’ data so that people can track their medical records. Additionally, it helps users find the medicine they need.
Initially, we provided Magora Systems with the client’s briefs regarding the required design, branding, and functionality of the app. Then, they developed the app from scratch.
What is the team composition?
We worked with a core team of five developers from Magora Systems, including a technical lead, senior developers, and mid-level developers. We also communicated with the account director.
How did you come to work with Magora Systems?
One of our internal product managers recommended them. I checked their reviews on Clutch, and they were great, so we contacted them and started working with them.
How much have you invested with them?
The original project cost $300,000, but the client requested additional features, so the total was around $350,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We worked from November 2021–April 2022; it was a six-month project. Still, I would hire Magora Systems again for further development and future projects.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Our client was happy with the MVP developed by Magora Systems, and they’re now trying to get more investors interested in the product.
How did Magora Systems perform from a project management standpoint?
Magora Systems delivered everything on time on the first iteration, so we experienced no delays. We managed the project using Jira and YouTrack, where they shared reports. Their team constantly shared information about the project and tracked their work hours.
We worked using a scrum methodology, so we had daily calls via Zoom and communicated via Slack and email very clearly. Additionally, Magora Systems is based in London, so we met in their office twice.
What did you find most impressive about them?
A really good aspect about working with Magora Systems — and one of the reasons I would go with them for our next development project — was that they had a really well-established process. Although I didn’t meet this person, they had a product owner involved who helped with the scope and documentation, allowing developers to kick off the project faster and understand everything.
Usually, other providers don’t bring product owners unless the client pays extra. Of course, the cost of this resource surely was included in the project cost, but Magora Systems’ approach in including support from the start was excellent. They didn’t simply take our requirements and run with them; they truly made an effort to understand everything by doing research and asking the right questions.
Additionally, Magora Systems was very transparent. Whenever we requested changes, they never took a hard stand. Instead, we had good, transparent, and honest conversations about what they could and couldn’t do, never overestimating themselves and always delivering on time.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No. Everything was good.

Magora created a mobile app for a travel company. They produced a business process model and notation (BPMN) and user stories that were evaluated by internal developers. The team does ongoing QA for the client.
The app was successfully launched, but there are no results available yet due to the effects of the global pandemic. Overall, the team delivered the app on time and the client has been pleased with the outcome.
The client submitted this review online.
BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am a developer at a small travel company located in Norway and is the project owner of the project. Our company has 10 employees and sells trips to beautiful locations in Norway.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Magora?
Norway is a complex geographic country, with a lot of fjords and mountains. A lot of trips offered by the company is therefore complicated with a lot of train, bus and boat connections.
To be able to offer the best experience for the customers of the company, we wanted to develop a virtual guide, to make the trip easier and more delightful for the tourist.
As the internal developers of the company did not have the capacity to do this work an external company was needed to help out with the development of the application.
What were your goals for this project?
Create a mobile application to engage travellers and diversify their experience when booking a trip at our company
SOLUTION
How did you select Magora?
We found Magora by searching online. We contacted a few different companies, but Magora seemed to be the most professional and easiest to communicate with.
Describe the project in detail.
We started off the project with a lot of initials meetings. Discussing the scope and mapping all the ideas. The result of this was a detailed BPMN and user stories that could be estimated and evaluated by the developers.
By creating this, the scope of the project was clear and ready to start the development. After each development phase both our company and Magora did a QA on the current work. When the QA was completed the project was deployed and released.
What was the team composition?
We were assigned a project manager to support us and serve as the main point of contact throughout the project. We also had a business analyst as well as a designer that came up with the initial design of the application. The company also provided a QA team.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The app was launched early june 2020. It is still yet hard to see if the app was a success or not because of the impact of the Covid-19 situation affecting the world at this time. Resulting in very few, if any, travellers. The app with expected content was delivered in time, and we are pleased with the result that was delivered. Hopefully we will be able to test the app in more detail 2021.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
The project manager that we were assigned was easy to communicate with and provided us with detailed updated. We had regular meetings to ensure we all were on the same page. Overall impressed with the people we worked with.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
Their planning skills and business analyzing skills have been extraordinary and detailed. The common understanding on what should be delivered or not was perfectly clear during the entire corporation.
Are there any areas for improvement?
The development process slowed pretty heavily when bugs were found in their own QA process. But they always delivered in the end. Overall pleased with the process.

How did you come to work with Magora?
One of my co-workers had worked with them before in a successful partnership, so they were one of three companies that we asked for proposals from. Their proposal was by far the best in terms of what we were aiming to achieve and showed strong attention to detail.
How much have you invested with them?
We spent about $40,000 so far.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working together in September 2019, and our teams are still collaborating. The project will likely be complete by July 2020.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We’re still mid-way through the project, so I can’t comment much on the quality of the code. However, they show attention to detail in their work and have been hitting milestones at the general pace we’re looking for.
How did Magora perform from a project management standpoint?
We set very detailed requirements from the beginning and documented milestones. In the end, we’re doing more than initially expected, so sometimes there was a bit of scope creep. We communicate via Slack and have a very skilled project manager.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Broader than just the code itself, the team strived to understand the entire project. Their attention to detail impressed us. They’ve proven to be understanding of some pretty complex code requirements and data sets. The breadth of their skills and processes is very impressive.
Are there any areas they could improve?
We’ve addressed how we’re going to work around issues with scope creep, and they’ve adapted to our needs.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Share as much about our needed deliverables and context early. That way, you’ll get the most out of their services. They’ve been a great team overall for us.

BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I am a lawyer, and the company I represent is a startup that works in education.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Magora?
We developed an application for iOS and iPad that allows users to write in Altai, a language in a region of southern Russia, using a downloadable custom keyboard.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Our team is not very familiar with the process of developing an application, so the Magora team worked with us from the beginning to the end to help scope out the technical requirements of the project and then to build out the entire thing.
What was the team composition?
They provided a project manager as well as a couple developers, so 2–3 people in total.
How did you come to work with Magora?
From our first meetings with them, they were friendly and incredibly helpful, so we knew that we wanted to move forward with them.
How much have you invested with them?
We spent a total of a little over $10,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
The project ran from around July–December 2019.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
The application that they helped us to develop is incredibly useful. We have people using it every day already, and many of them often thank us for much the app has improved their ability to type in Altai. We are totally satisfied with the usability that Magora enabled, and it goes a long way in helping to save our culture and language for a little while longer.
How did Magora perform from a project management standpoint?
We were not a particularly easy customer to work with, because we were often guilty of procrastinating and causing delays, but they were always tolerant and helpful to us. I learned to communicate more effectively because of the professionalism with which their team operated.
We primarily used email, WhatsApp, and phone calls to interact with their team. They were very adaptable to the means of communication that was easiest for us to use, which we appreciated.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Their whole team is highly professional, from their project managers to the implementation of all the technical requirements. They worked hard to ensure we were satisfied with every aspect of their work with us, and it really paid off.
Are there any areas they could improve?
If anything, I could have improved with my communication and meeting deadlines, so I certainly don’t think there was anything that they needed to do differently.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
It is easy to work with them because they are eager to communicate and find a way to help no matter what you do.

Their flexibility and ability to move through processes quickly were impressive.
Are there any areas they could improve?
We were one of the first clients in our industry to partner with them. While that would have made me nervous, they were easily able to pick up on our requirements and regulations.
