I found them online, through a web search. Before proceeding with their company, we had hired and fired four development teams. They were all OK, but I'm a very picky client.

I work for a keyboard company that builds 21st century designed keyboards to improve worker productivity. Our optimized radial keyboard has been designed to address the shortcomings of the existing standard QWERTY design. It helps users improve their keyboarding skills, increasing data entry speed.

What is your position?

I am the Managing Director and Technical Officer.

What business challenge were you trying to address with Perception System?

We were trying to prove the worth of a new concept for keyboards. The radial keyboard design, which is what we're promoting, is a radical new design in terms of keyboard layout. We felt that the cheapest way to go about proving the new keyboards worth was to create a mobile application.

Please describe the scope of their involvement in greater detail.

We asked Perception System to create an Android keyboard app. We're basing the actual prototype on the app that was created.

How did you come to work with Perception System?

The app took approximately nine months to develop. I researched who were the leading app developers in the market at the time, and Perception System kept coming up. We ended up deciding to go with Perception System.

Could you provide a sense of the size of this initiative in financial terms?

It was approximately $24,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

The project is completed.

We got very good feedback on the performance of the application over a 30-day test period. We're hoping to launch the actual product in a few months. Those that have used the app have raved about how easy it is to use. That reflects well on both the quality design and the fact that Perception System was able to implement it in the manner we specified. Users have asked us when we're bringing out an iPhone version. We would love to bring out both an upgraded version of the Android keyboard and a matching version for the iPhone.

How did Perception Systems perform from a project management standpoint?

Their performance was consistently good for each state of the development up to and including, the final working product. The system of communication was online and worked very well. They provided us with the project outline and schedule and then tackled it in stages.

What distinguishes Perception System from other providers?

Perception System's ability to take on and deliver innovative projects is what sets them apart from their competitors. Wherever we searched on the internet, their ratings were consistently high. The user experience mentioned was always positive. This gave us confidence that they had the ability to deliver the Android app solution we were looking for.

Is there anything Perception System could have improved or done differently?

Communication and response time could have been a bit better. They gave us decision-making power for every aspect of the project, down to the colors.

Could you provide a sense of the size of this initiative in financial terms?

We would be in the $10,000 to $50,000 range.
