"We're super happy with the quality they've delivered."

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'm the founder and CEO of a tech company developing a mobile app for finding new friends by participating in activities in users' local areas.
What challenge were you trying to address with New Wave Devs?
We needed an iOS developer.
What was the scope of their involvement?
New Wave Devs provides us with a full-time iOS developer. We did an interview and asked about their technical skills. From there, they dove into our codebase. We had an existing app, and New Wave Devs has continued working on it.
They've added features like user profile registration and a photo gallery. The app matches users based on their interests, values, and preferences. New Wave Devs has also helped integrate Sendbird, a third-party solution for chatting. The team participates in discussions to decide our approach to development.
They continually add new functions and improve the UX. We'll be releasing a new design, and they've been working on developing the latest version for the past month. After the design is released, New Wave Devs will focus on an event/activity function to ensure users can meet new friends in a group.
What is the team composition?
We work with one consultant from New Wave Devs.
How did you come to work with New Wave Devs?
We found them on Upwork. We interviewed a candidate from New Wave Devs and told him what kind of technology we used and how we worked. He didn't need much more information, so we started working with them.
How much have you invested with them?
We spend around $4,000–$4,500 a month. In total, we've spent less than $50,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working together in November 2021, and the engagement is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Of all our developers, we're most happy with the one New Wave Devs has supplied. They're independent, efficient, detail-oriented, and thorough. They do their own testing, so any bugs are found during the testing phase, avoiding errors on the live app. Overall, we're super happy with the quality they've delivered.
Our app is live, we have almost 30,000 users, and our metrics are pretty good. People are using the app for the purpose we want, and we have a good rating on the App Store.
How did New Wave Devs perform from a project management standpoint?
They're very good with deadlines. Their time estimates are good, and they do whatever they need to meet them. We mostly communicate via Slack. We also use Twilio and Jira for project management. Overall, we haven't had any negative experiences with the team.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I'm impressed by how well New Wave Devs understand our needs. In the beginning, we were quite clear that we wanted a senior developer, and they didn't disappoint. All the candidates they presented were senior-level. Additionally, the team is pretty good at following up. They send me an email every month to check if we're happy and if there's anything we need, and it's easy to communicate with them. Overall, they're very professional.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, they haven't disappointed me.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
I recommend you have an in-house tech wizard. Since I'm not technical, having an internal CTO who can help me communicate with New Wave Devs is quite important.

Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the Head of Engineering at POM Safe. At POM Safe our mission is to provide safety to all through use of a small iOT device and integrated mobile application. We partner with schools, hospitals, and direct with consumers as well to empower a safer world through the use of smart technologies.
For what projects/services did your company hire New Wave Devs, and what were your goals?
We were looking to move away from traditional iOS and Android development to be able to use a "build-once" framework. We decided we wanted to build a brand new app experience using Flutter. We needed expert Flutter developers who could help us build iteratively and quickly.
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
We searched online and decided to use New Wave Devs because of the great talent they were able to connect us with. We also really like that they are there to help with any issues and support both sides of the agreement. They provide safety and assurance in that if a developer were to no longer be available they will help us to quickly backfill to avoid interruptions. They always respond quickly and the developers we contract through them seem to really like working for New Wave Devs.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
We have aggressive timelines and started with an initial walkthrough of the prototype and began to refine user stories. We started sprinting almost immediately and our Flutter developers have worked incredibly hard to get all of the screens built. We are now in an integration phase and continue to be impressed by their diligence, aptitude, and dedication to the project and team. We will have an MVP release shortly and hope to continue to work with them for years to come.
How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
We have 2 resources from New Wave Devs and are currently looking to bring on one more. The current resources hold Lead Developer and Senior Developer positions.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
Almost exactly 3 months ago we began this process and we now have a nearly complete application. The developers are both excellent communicators and have delivered above and beyond our expectations.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
We primarily use JIRA and Slack. The developers are fully integrated into our full stack development team and participate in all scrum ceremonies.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
I was impressed by the quality of talent & also the dedication they put in. This has not been my usual experience with contracted engineers. I also was very impressed with Roman (CEO) in how he promptly addresses and handles any confusion. He seems to be a good leader who truly cares about the people who work for him.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
