I am the CEO of KnowNOW Health.

We were founded in 2017 and have been in constant redesign and development with the help of Mobikasa.

For what projects/services did your company hire MOBIKASA, and what were your goals?

We wanted to create a mobile App for our patients that could connect with us easily and at any time. This would allow our medical providers to see the patients after hours and on weekends from the comfort of their home. Patients had been asking for such a device to be available from their smart phones.

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We searched online for App developers and came across Mobikasa. We also had some guidance from their prior work with 1-800 Flowers and Versace. We chose Mobikasa based on their competitive pricing, past projects and design skill.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

We met with the Mobikasa team in their Park Ave office in Manhattan and kicked off a discovery meeting that led us from our initial website with KnowNOW STD to a full scale App completed in 2020. We met with their CEO, Prateek Sachdev and their US based team. From the very beginning to completion of our projects we have only received professionalism, patience and complete guidance and support. They are an amazing team.

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the deputy city clerk of a city’s governmental agency.

What challenge were you trying to address with MOBIKASA?

Due to the ongoing pandemic, we faced having to manage our municipal elections during a time when it was difficult for candidates to qualify for the ballot and public financing. Traditional campaigning requires candidates to go door to door to collect the required petition signatures and qualifying contributions to qualify for our public financing program.

We launched an RFP to find a company that could help us meet this challenge remotely or in an electronic format. We wanted to build a program to allow our candidates to collect the qualifying contributions in a web-based format, instead of them going to the population in person to collect them on paper.

What was the scope of their involvement?

MOBIKASA first spend a lot of time building into the scope that we had written to make sure that it was specific enough for them to start working. Then, they spent a couple of weeks building the program frame. They showed me how it would look to ensure that it matched our needs before they did the actual development.

The program is live now, and although this is a finite project, we still have a maintenance contract with them. It is built on an API that runs through the Secretary of State’s office because we don’t have access to a voter registration database.

What is the team composition?

Richard (Delivery Manager) is my main point of contact from MOBIKASA, which is nice because I’ve got to know him really well. He acts as the project manager, so I don’t have to bounce around with different people.

However, whenever Richard is gone, they provide me with enough contacts so that I can get something done if needed.

During the onboarding process, I also met MOBIKASA’s president and all of their developers, so I had a good experience meeting the people who would be doing the work.

How did you come to work with MOBIKASA?

We issued an RFP, so this was a competitive process. Among all of the companies that responded, MOBIKASA seemed to understand our scope the best; they matched better to what we were looking for.

Additionally, they had already worked with other governmental agencies similar to ours. For example, they had experience working with the New York City’s election bureau, so I knew that they would understand our language.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent $75,000 on the development, and the ongoing maintenance will be $15,000 per year.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together around August 2020, and the site went live in April 2021. We will shut it down in August 2021, but we hope to keep using the program for the municipal elections and keep upgrading it based on what we’ve learned so far.

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

Even though we built this program due to the pandemic, this has been a very successful project, and we hope to continue using it in future elections. Some candidates decided to have door-to-door campaigns still, but others decided to make broad use of this tool.

Overall, the ones that decided to use it found great success in it. Some candidates got over 50% of their required signatures and qualifying contributions through this site.

On the other hand, we as a city are very happy with the program, which is an additional useful tool. The site works exactly how we wanted; it is very simple and allows our registered voters’ population to sign a petition or donate to a candidate.

How did MOBIKASA perform from a project management standpoint?

MOBIKASA uses Trello, which was especially helpful before we went live when we were doing a lot of testing. There were a lot of moving parts that we didn’t have control over, so managing the project through Trello helped us keep that moving pieces together while we were building tickets and trying to fix everything before the site went live.

What did you find most impressive about them?

MOBIKASA’s customer service is impressive. I know that they have offices in the US, but as they built the program during COVID-19, they managed all the development from India. I was initially worried about the timelines and how much it would take them to fix issues. However, when we’ve faced issues, it takes them no more than a couple of hours to get us back online.

They’re one of the easiest companies I’ve ever worked with, and I enjoy working with them. Additionally, from my experience, it was nice that MOBIKASA spent time walking me through the process instead of just coming in to do it.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I faced some inconveniences throughout the project, and if I had been asked this question during the development process, I would have some constructive feedback to share. However, we’re about to shut this project down for now, and I’m happy overall. This has been a pleasant experience, and I’m thrilled with the product, so I would definitely work with them again.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Make sure that you have a very specific scope in mind before you go in. We made a lot of changes before we went live, and because of that, we faced problems in the first couple of weeks after launch. If you have a clear enough scope, those issues can be resolved earlier, and you’ll not be fixing them once the site is live.

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the co-owner of a company that manufactures mountain bicycles.

What challenge were you trying to address with MOBIKASA?

We wanted to increase our revenue, so we brought in MOBIKASA to develop software and design our website on Shopify Plus.

What was the scope of their involvement?

We began the project by providing MOBIKASA with a requirements document. Their team researched references extensively to come up with a layout for our website. They also did SEO for us.

What is the team composition?

There are probably more than 10 people working on the project. That includes the project manager, creative director, software developer, QA tester, and SEO analyst.

How did you come to work with MOBIKASA?

MOBIKASA was recommended to us. When I was interviewing finalists, their agency was clearly the winner. They had provided mockups of what our website would look like, which communicated that they understood our business.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve invested an amount within the range of $10,000–$50,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

The partnership began in October 2020 and it is ongoing.

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

We’ve experienced a 90% increase in our conversion rate. 

What I appreciate most about MOBIKASA is they don’t just take orders. After I describe the challenges, they would always go back, think about it, and engage their team to come up with three different options for us. I had not even thought about some of those options, which is why I value their proactive problem-solving approach.

How did MOBIKASA perform from a project management standpoint?

Their project management is just fine. We conduct web conferences and use Asana and InVision.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They’re one of the top website design and development firms in the world.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

First, make sure to be clear on what you want. Second, don’t underestimate how long it will take to get images, brand assets, and copies for the website.
