Please describe your company and your position there.
Fondee is an online platform that allows users to invest in ETFs by automating their investments according to their risk profile. I am a CTO - a person responsible for all the development activities.
For what projects/services did your company hire NETVOR, and what were your goals?
We had a substantial challenge ahead of us. Fondee has been aspiring for a higher-tier trading license for quite some time. This license, which Czech National Bank has awarded, would allow Fondee to begin the next period of its growth as it enabled us to offer more smooth and complex services to our clients. The side effect of this transition was also the ability and need to change the broker that Fondee was using and contain some of their responsibility. This change has had vast and structural consequences to our online platform.
After a few years of development with other vendors, we've decided to start from scratch and rewrite the whole project with someone experienced that would be both reliable and able to scale up such a fast-growing project. We have already validated our market fit, time to build robust foundations has come and we needed a strong partner.
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
We were connected with one of our team members who had a previous experience with NETVOR. Before we decided to work with them, several intensive workshops helped us understand if we could work together and deliver on time. NETVOR proposed a timeline and a budget that was not exactly according to our initial expectations but we had a good feeling that they could provide the output we were looking for, and we had trust in their experience.
We really appreciated their honest communication. They did not promise anything that they knew they could not deliver. Such an attitude turned out to hold throughout our cooperation. We knew what we were getting and what to expect.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
The main goal was to rewrite the whole system to prepare it for a new broker. Most of the work was on the backend, where most of the operations were happening. The scope was divided into several smaller projects, each project covering part of the main functionality. We began with partially rewriting the frontend, preparing the architecture, preparing the data structure model, and documenting all the functionalities.
As preparing the documentation was a long process, we decided to code the backend step by step. Once most of the backend core functionality worked, it was time to prepare the API and implement it with the frontend. Then we had to do the most crucial part - connect to the new broker. It was not an easy task because of the strict deadline and not much time for testing and debugging. But in the end, there was not a significant issue we had to face. We decided to rewrite the frontend with React.JS and the backend with PHP (Nette Framework).
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
We communicated mainly with a project manager who has been the go-to person for everything. If there was a need for technical consultations, the project manager set up a meeting with a needed team member who participated in the project. Apart from the project manager, we were in touch with the account manager, who cared for our business. The development team covered backend, frontend, QA, and release management.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
Because we had a strict deadline from our previous broker, we had to move quickly in a relatively short period. After the analysis, NETVOR proposed to divide the project into smaller projects that should be deliverable in one month. That allowed us to measure our progress, so if we could not provide the functionality in the small project, we still could in the next one, or we could change or decide not to do it. In the end, we were able to launch the project on time with all the crucial modules which was a success.
The one thing I appreciate the most is the delivery process - 99% of the functionality we tested was ready for production release. Although just a tiny percentage of functionality had some minor issues. It was a huge step forward for our team because we didn’t have to spend so much time resolving bugs. Instead, we could have focused on preparations for the launch.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
Once we agreed on the project scope, we gained access to NETVOR Slack to quickly communicate with the team allocated to our project. We used Atlassian tools: JIRA for project management, Confluence for documentation, Bitbucket as a Git repository, and Tempo for time tracking. The project manager played a crucial role for us and helped us a lot during the project preparation and daily project management. As I described, we planned the monthly projects that were estimated before the development started so we knew if we could make it for one month or not.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
As we've had some bad experiences with other developers, we really appreciate NETVOR's professionalism, honest communication, precise budgeting, and quality work.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
Sometimes, NETVOR didn’t deliver the small projects on time, but we understand that the output’s complexity was more complicated, so the estimations couldn’t always be 100% precise.

Project summary:
NETVOR provided mobile app development services for an investment solutions firm. The team replicated the web UI and built the app in Flutter to make it accessible for iOS and Android devices.
Feedback summary:
The client launched the app, and nearly 60% of their customers used it. The team communicated effectively, but the timeline became an issue because the Flutter developer had other obligations with other clients. In the end, NETVOR handled the complaints, resulting in positive feedback overall.
BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
I work as a product owner at an investment solutions firm. We aim at a larger number of smaller retail clients.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire NETVOR, and what were your goals?
We wanted to develop a mobile app mainly for our existing clients to use as another channel to access their client accounts, check their portfolio balances and perform certain actions with their investment portfolios. The goal was to pretty much replicate the web UI and wrap it into a mobile app, thus bringing us closer to our clients.
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
We selected Netvor mainly due to the fact that they had built the web platform. So they were already familiar with our graphic style, our client base and the overall product.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
The app was built in Flutter as a cross-platform solution for iOS and Android. We wanted to keep things simple and did not want to maintain two separate code bases. We decide on an MVP scope, that would mirror our existing web-based client zone, without any additional bells and whistles. This was supposed to serve as a proof of concept and to see if the clients really used the app.
How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
We had a PM on their side, who covered the web development as well as the mobile app. And then a dedicated Flutter developer.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
We have seen a massive surge in numbers after the launch. At this time, close to 60 % of our clients use the app to access their client zone. The overall feedback was positive, with certain repetitive complaints. They were concerned mainly with the login process, which was not sufficiently streamlined / specified in the MVP. We have since rectified some of the bigger issues with some minor ones remaining on the backlog.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
We have known each other with the PM for a long time so it made the communication easy and effective. We mainly used Slack. The project management itself was handled using Jira and Confluence. The timeline was a bit of a problem because of limited capacities. We only had one Flutter developer and he had other obligations (with us as well as with other clients). The MVP scope took about 3 weeks to prepare, the development itself about 10 and another 8-10 weeks of the review process, which made us quite frustrated at the end.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
We decided on Netvor because of the good work they had been doing for us previously with web development. We haven't had many issues with bugs so the overall quality of the work is at a high level. They are easy to talk to (not only the developers but the management also) and flexible in their approach.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
One thing we have found challenging was the timeline and related expectation management. The overall client expectations could have been managed better and with a greater emphasis on the review process and associated costs. Also, resource allocation is something we have been struggling with, but I understand Netvor's position.
Star Ratings
Overall rating: 4.5
Quality: 4
Cost: 3.5 Overall still quite OK, but unexpected due to additional review costs.
Schedule: 3 Hard to anticipate timeline. During the review process we were struggling with a certain lack of experience from our POV.
Willing to refer: 4.5 Great company overall. Taking into consideration other projects as well.

Please describe your company and your position there.
ELEARN.AERO is a fully-digital learning management system (LMS) for flight crew, cabin crew and other aviation personnel. I’m a COO responsible for unique educational content, customer relationships and I oversee operations regarding the product development on a daily basis.
For what projects/services did your company hire NETVOR, and what were your goals?
We approached NETVOR in 2015 with a rough idea about a custom-made LMS that would set a new standard in the industry of aviation personnel education.
How did you select NETVOR and what were the deciding factors?
We were introduced to NETVOR on a call via our common business partner. Guys made a solid research of the specification and got back to us with a proposal and questions. We agreed on terms and conditions after a short discussion.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
We had quite clear expectations about the MVP. Design was delivered by another agency. The NETVOR team focused solely on the coding and development of the Landing page, the Educational Platform and also on the Administration, where all educational content is being created and maintained.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
About seven people. A Project Manager, who was the single point of contact for us, then there were:
- 2 Back-End Developers
- 1 Front-End Developer
- 2 iOS Developers
- 1 Quality Assurance Specialist
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
Sure. The main deliverables were a responsive web application running smoothly on smartphones, tablets and desktops and then a native mobile application for iPad, that introduced several new features like off-line learning, Facial Recognition for Final Tests.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timelines.
The communication has always been great. We communicated mainly over email as Slack hasn’t been so popular those days.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
Although there were some small hurdles on the way, the direct communication with one of the founders has always been great. They are always willing to help and solve our troubles with onboarding customers, be it over email with short reaction times or lately via WhatsApp.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
I think we should have avoided several delays during our cooperation. So keeping up to deadlines could be an area for improvement.

I'm COO of creative digital agency Story TLRS - we are part of the Near & Dear group. Our focus is on digital marketing and story telling and we provide our clients with a wide range of services, from a new identity or product through a website to social networks.
For what projects/services did your company hire NETVOR, and what were your goals?
Our clients goal was to start a new website app for selling his sports photos primarily in Scandinavia. We had to help him with the concept of this new photo bank and then create the whole brand and website.
How did you select NETVOR and what were the deciding factors?
We knew that our development team wasn't strong enough to develop the whole app on their own in given time, so we were looking for some good experienced partner.
Deciding factors were team experienced in technologies that our solution was designed (for example PHP Symfony on backend) in and flexible enough so they could start right away and vary the amount of people and hours as we needed.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
When we started to cooperate with NETVOR, we had already done a lot of things with our client. From the concept and branding to the wireframes and design. Our weakness was in the specification of the scope of the technical solution, that was one of many challenges for NETVOR.
The custom solution was based on PHP Symfony framework + VUE JS and the rest of the frontend (CSS, JS, HTML). The website had to be ready for the payments, invoicing and uploading, downloading viewing a lot of high res photos on desktop and mobile devices.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
Their project manager was the main contact for us and to be honest I can't even remember how many developers was there - I do believe this is a big plus because their project manager took care of all the briefing, tasking and supervision of his team.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
Client was happy, that was the main thing, with NETVOR we have manage to launch the solution on time and it was working!
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timelines.
We had statuses multiple times each week (as the situation required). The tools were - Slack, email and phone. Developers worked in GitLab.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
They have a good company culture, similar to ours so we speak the same "language". We've managed to speak about problems and find the solution together. It is great to find such a partner.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
There were some minor bugs during the launch but it is hard to point fingers, there were also some issues on our side.

Our website was created in 2012 and managed by multiple agencies and IT companies throughout this period of time.

Please describe your company and your position there.
I'm responsible for the technical aspects of a telecommunication company based in Prague that is providing internet and telecommunication services to a wide range of customers.
For what projects/services did your company hire NETVOR?
For most of the internal processes we used old ways how to manage our work (f.e. MS Access or MS Excel) and at some point it was unsustainable. So we decided to transfer all these processes to digital in order to help our company to grow. And because we didn't have any internal developers, we decided to hire NETVOR.
What were your goals for this project?
We wanted to have all internal processes under control, so we can manage them better. It was also important for our potential growth to easily extend our customers base.
How did you select this vendor?
We already had an experience with NETVOR, because they provided us several websites for our portfolio companies. Because we were satisfied with their work, it was a logical solution to also hire them for our internal system.
Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.
Once we started to talk with NETVOR about our internal system, we had a series of meetings to describe them our idea, how to digitalise our internal processes. Then we prioritize functionalities and NETVOR prepared a project scope. Because the functionalities were really complex, we always started before development of each one, with a several workshops. After we had a really detailed description of the functionalities, NETVOR started with the development. Once the development was finished we had enough time to test the functionalities before they were implemented to the production. By this way we collaborate till now.
What was the team composition?
There is always one project manager and at least one full stack developer dedicated to us. And sometimes we also need a designer, tester or product manager - depending on the functionality we wanted to develop.
Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?
We were able to digitalise our internal process and that was a long and not easy process. Thanks to NETVOR, we were able to do it continuously over the years, so now we have a really complex internal system that helps us in everyday work.
How was project management arranged and how effective was it?
We are in touch directly with developers over email, phone or JIRA. It help us to really quickly resolve bugs or to make small improvements.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
We have been with NETVOR for more than five years, and they are still our reliable partner. I really like their communication and the way they work.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Once the development took longer than it was estimated, but then it was clearly communicated to us, what was the issue and why it happened. After that they always asked more in detail, so they have enough information to give us more precise estimation.

the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I am the founder and CEO of Bric, a project planning and contracting software company based out of Omaha, Nebraska.
What challenge were you trying to address with NETVOR?
We had a core team to develop our application, but we didn't have the experience or the resources to develop a Chrome extension. We also needed help understanding what was possible for our project roadmap.
What was the scope of their involvement?
We first approached NETVOR with a need to develop integrations and pull data from other systems. Instead of building multiple extensions, they recommended that we create a Chrome extension that worked across multiple integrations. Acting as business and technical advisor throughout the project, NETVOR developed the extension.
What is the team composition?
Our primary point of contact was their CEO, but they did have a team of developers working remotely.
How did you come to work with NETVOR?
We connected with them on social media and over time we realized we could work very well together. We set up some meetings and hired them for our project.
How much have you invested with them?
We invested $10,000 in the project.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with them in February 2018 and finished the project in April 2018.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
There were no major bugs and we now have a new approach to integrations that we didn't have before. We no longer must spend more time and money making multiple apps. The extension allows us to easily support new launches and the quality of the code is excellent.
How did NETVOR perform from a project management standpoint?
They were very careful and deliberate with making commitments. NETVOR was highly responsive, communicative, and we talked several times a week. Their team was excellent at managing a very complex project.
We communicated with them using Slack, Facebook Messenger, email, and managed the code through GitHub. They were very up to date on DevOps and the industry standards for development. They worked U.S. business hours from the Czech Republic and were digital natives—nothing was lost during our conversations.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Overseas teams we worked with in the past always focused too much on cost. NETVOR, in comparison highly valued code quality and business strategy. Their team focuses on innovation, creativity, and creating a quality product. NETVOR was outstanding in helping refine and validate our vision.
Are there any areas they could improve?
They could’ve shared more of their visual designs to make it easier for inexperienced developers. However, they were very clear with the specs and exactly what was available. It would have been helpful, but it wasn’t required.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Make sure to understand exactly what you want to build first and then collaborate with the NETVOR team to refine that initial vision. Good software development happens through iterations and communication.

Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the CEO of the Prague Fertility Centre.
For what reason(s) did your company hire NETVOR?
We hired them because of their reasonable pricing, great knowledge of web technologies, and product development.
What were your goals for this project?
Our goal was standardization of embryo scoring among the embryologist community by using time-lapse technology. The impact would be that my embryologists would attain a higher skill level.
How did you select this vendor?
I used a competitive tender with the following deciding factors: reasonable price and proven knowledge by developing a prototype of a critical part of this project.
Describe the project in detail.
The technical requirements entailed fast download of time-lapse images (several GB of images) and integration with Artificial Intelligence solution developed by IBM. I was in charge of defining the business requirements and giving feedback to outcomes. I provided my embryologists to take part in user testing. NETVOR's responsibility was the MVP development, project management, and later taking over system integration of the whole Embryo Score and Compare ecosystem including coordination of several vendors.
What was the team composition?
I met with a project manager and NETVOR's CTO, Filip Mika. Sometimes I am in touch with their UX designer to give feedback to product feature prototypes.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The projects are still in development, but shortly after releasing MVP we received feedback and the new version is coming soon. We also have a concept of the business model together with NETVOR.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
We meet almost every week. They show me the progress of the project, and I give them feedback, and sometimes, we change requirements and priorities.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
NETVOR follows project deadlines and agreements. They understand my needs. This is important because embryology is difficult to understand. They are also very flexible.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Work could be a bit faster. But, there are other vendors whose outputs they are dependent on, so sometimes it is justifiable.
NETVOR has successfully built a new website within the expected timeframe. More importantly, all of its main modules are working properly. The team works in sprints, ensuring a seamless process and high-quality output. They've also been very professional, communicative, and transparent.
