Taking the risk out of software development services
Pegasus One is a hybrid software development firm that combines the simplicity of a US-based management team with the economy of offshore expertise. Since 2009, our end-to-end development and consulting services have helped clients across North America achieve their business and innovation goals.
With in-house resources that are stretched already, many turn to outsourcing, but that isn’t an easy decision. The costs involved in engaging a US-based third party can be prohibitive—and offshoring business-critical projects can be risky and difficult to manage.
But there’s another option: Frictionless hybrid software development from Pegasus One
Companies know we can help them achieve their goals because we deliver expert teams, flexibility to pivot and scale quickly, and white-glove customer service. But our biggest advantage over other software development firms is our frictionless hybrid service model:
Local: You’ll be paired with a US-based IT Account Manager who will be your point of contact from kickoff to launch and who will handle all communication with the offshore development team.
Transparent: Your Account Manager will brief the development team on your project vision and make sure they understand exactly what you need. You’ll receive detailed progress reports, but no unexpected surprises.
Efficient: You’ll never be kept waiting while our development teams get up to speed on a new platform or technology. All of our experts come to you fully upskilled, and poised to begin your new project on Day One.
Diligent: Our commitment to excellence extends beyond just getting to launch. Until you’re satisfied, we’re not either. We won’t rest until you’re thrilled with the outcome and start seeing the business impact you need.

Custom Software Dev for Healthcare Consultancy
"Pegasus One embodies the same sense of pride in my project as I do."
the reviewer
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 CEO of IN.S.P.I.RE., a healthcare consultancy.
What challenge were you trying to address with Pegasus One?
We wanted to build a software platform focusing on healthcare and education.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Pegasus One is our development team. I’ve supplied the original design and specs. We’ve gone through several testing and discovery phases, and have ended up making design changes along the way. It’s been a pretty mutual process in terms of mutual input on R&D.
The team focuses mostly on the backend development and main architecture of the platform. They’ve done a lot of integration work and leveraged features with Azure Cognitive Services. The team also uses C#.
They’ve helped with the scoping and analyst work as well. Throughout the project, they’ve offered insight into best practices and tools, as the platform itself is pretty complex and our industry is very regulated. The platform is very detailed — it’s multilingual and has a lot of intricacies.
What is the team composition?
I work very closely with Tushar (CEO & Founder). Over the course of the engagement, I’ve worked with about 15 members of their team.
How did you come to work with Pegasus One?
When I started looking for a developer, I was already working with another provider, with whom I was satisfied. We did some proofs of concept and I realized we needed to add more resources for the backend work.
I started looking on LinkedIn and reached out to some contacts. I spoke to several providers, reviewing their portfolios, and assessing their work. What stood out about Pegasus One was Tushar’s initial ability to understand what I wanted and the confidence he instilled in me.
What is the status of this engagement?
Our collaboration has been going on since August 2017. We have a roadmap that’s probably going to take us out a number of years and then some.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
The project is still ongoing, so it’s difficult to share any success metrics. In terms of turnaround time, however, the team was able to put the mainframe platform architecture together in less than a year. It was pretty impressive. What we started with and where we are today in terms of the value of the product are two different things.
How did Pegasus One perform from a project management standpoint?
They assigned me a business analyst, so in addition to having an entire team, I also have a designated contact who helps to shepherd the project. Their communication among one another is one of the things I’ve been most impressed with. They place an emphasis on clarity, so if there’s ever a time when they need to pause and explain something to me, they do so.
They function as an extension of our own team. Due to the complicated nature of the platform, we usually have daily calls and web conferences, sometimes even on weekends. The team has been incredibly responsive about fixing bugs or other issues as they come up. When it comes to timelines, Pegasus always delivers when they say they will.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Tushar and his team are there to do the work, but they also care. Pegasus One embodies the same sense of pride in my project as I do. They have my best interests in mind, and they never do anything to put me in any sort of financial risk. Their honesty and integrity really set them apart. They’ve just been great partners.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No. They have such a wide net to grow their team, I’ve never felt a gap in competencies or skills.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Anyone looking to engage Pegasus One will see that they deliver. If you don’t have full clarity on your plan, Tushar and their team will help guide you to the right place. They work hard to make sure their clients are satisfied with their work.

Proof of Concept & Development for Freelancer
“They focus on providing an effective solution instead of just developing whatever you ask for.”
the reviewer
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 a freelancer that consulted for a company that digitizes real coffee mugs and makes 3-D models that allows users to preview logos on them.
What challenge were you trying to address with Pegasus One?
I needed a partner to develop a web-based app for the 3-D modeling service.
What was the scope of their involvement?
I met with Pegasus One to explain the problem and determine the time and cost of the project. We did research for about 2–3 months to figure out how we would build the app and what the risks would be. An architect and developer created a roadmap for the project, and we then built a proof of concept that met my expectations. They used WebGL and COLLADA for the project, taking it from coding to launch. The app allows users to superimpose their logo or image onto a 3-D mug and see what it would look like in real life.
What is the team composition?
They provided a project manager, business analyst, and four developers.
How did you come to work with Pegasus One?
We wanted a partner from Southern California and found about 5–6 online. Pegasus One understood our project and knew the technology well, so we hired them.
How much have you invested with them?
We spent around $100,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
The engagement lasted from February 2017–April 2018.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Even though we were dabbling in new technology, we were happy with their work and the effort they put into making a successful product.
How did Pegasus One perform from a project management standpoint?
They had great project management, using Asana and an agile methodology to keep things moving. We set monthly goals and mainly communicated via Zoom.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They focus on providing an effective solution instead of just developing whatever you ask for. They’re open to innovation and are dedicated to their projects.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, I can't think of anything.

The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
I'm the founder and CEO of Dream Big Gaming, a startup in the world of social gaming.
For what projects/services did your company hire Pegasus One?
We needed Pegasus One to create everything from the ground up, starting on the backend and finishing with the frontend.
What were your goals for this project?
We wanted to create a social gaming application that could be used across all browsers and devices.
How did you select this vendor?
Initially, I met with multiple developers but their prices were too high. I weighed the pros and cons and ultimately chose Pegasus One.
Can you go into detail about the services they provided and the scope of the project?
They provided a range of services, as we were beginning entirely from scratch. They designed the website, built and incorporated multiple features on the backend, performed analytics, and delivered other essential aspects needed to bring the idea of a system to a reality.
What was the team composition?
Though the team changed depending on the task at hand, I has access to my project manager, senior developers, coders, site designers, and graphic design team members whenever I needed them.
Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?
If not for the guidance of Pegasus One, I wouldn't have the knowledge about app development that I do now. I don’t think I would have been able to complete the project on time and on budget without their help. I learned many things throughout the process about how to bring an idea to life.
How was project management arranged and how effective was it?
The project management arrangement worked well for me. I had a project manager who I worked with on various details of the project during the day. The work itself was done at night, so I would have an email every morning with status updates. I could always reach my project manager.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
Their communication and speed were what made them impressive to work with.
Are there any areas where they can improve?
There aren’t any areas for improvement in the work they did for us.

Please describe your company and your position there.
Thoroughbred Analytics gathers raw data for races across North America. We apply proprietary algorithms and advanced statistical models to these metrics. We sell our handicapping reports to fans and pertinent websites.
For what projects/services did your company hire Pegasus One?
After our initial development, we’d hired a series of teams who claimed to have LAMP stack experience. In practice, none of them could handle our requirements We needed a competent and proficient development provider.
What were your goals for this project?
Our pressing objective was transitioning to a new environment that could facilitate both development and production. We needed to keep both of them operating smoothly and migrate incoming data. Our expansive database runs 20 hours a day and automates updates every 10 minutes.
How did you select this vendor?
We searched extensively online for local firms with substantial LAMP stack experience.
Can you go into detail about the services they provided and the scope of the project?
Pegasus One continuously migrates live results from our database. They update algorithms and models per the requirements. Programmers write detailed code using a Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP software bundle. They’ve developed improvements for our reports, analytics, and statistical processes. Maintaining a scheduling command keeps our development and production environments running seamlessly.
What was the team composition?
We work with a manager and a developer from Pegasus One.
Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?
Pegasus One is the only developer we’ve worked with who successfully manages the size and complexity of our database and real-time ongoing processes.
How was project management arranged and how effective was it?
Using an ad-hoc method has proven fairly effective so far. We provided such detailed requirements that we only have to manage things as needed.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
I admire their work for the initial server migration. They’ve provided needed updates over the past four years of our partnership. Pegasus One performed services that several more experienced shops could not.
Are there any areas where they can improve?
They could be a bit more responsive to resolving issues.
Though the platform is still in development, internal stakeholders are impressed with Pegasus One’s work so far. The team has a range of talent and capabilities, and have helped to elevate the project to an extremely high level. Customers can expect a dedicated, engaged, and timely partner.
