Web App UX/UI Overhaul for Healthcare Consulting Firm
"Partners like them are hard to find."
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 owner and director of operations for Healthcare Compliance Pros. We do healthcare consulting.
What challenge were you trying to address with Pixoul?
We needed help improving the UX design on our web app.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Initially, they provided some new design elements, wireframes, and more to overhaul the UX/UI of the SaaS application.
Since then, they’ve conducted extensive user research, and competitor analysis for a new platform, before any code was written.
They are starting to build the infrastructure of our new platform using HTML5, among other technologies. They are using Azure Cloud for web services.
What is the team composition?
Devon (Entrepreneur) was my initial contact. He oversees a team of roughly five people daily, with another two developers working part-time.
How did you come to work with Pixoul?
I searched online, and vetted a few freelance agencies with a mini dashboarding project. We liked the relationship and work ethic we saw in Pixoul, as well as the direction they took with the mini-project.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve spent between $200,000–$999,999.
What is the status of this engagement?
We began working together in July 2018, and our work with them is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We gather monthly feedback from our employees and some of our end users. Pixoul creates products that express our communicated desires and goals very well.
How did Pixoul perform from a project management standpoint?
They communicate well without overpromising anything. They are very collaborative, and proactive, which is great. They reach out to us to schedule meetings and give progress reports.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I like the flexibility they show, allowing us to be very hands-on and participate, while still taking over where needed. We’re on the same wavelength. Partners like them are hard to find, in my experience.
Are there any areas they could improve?
It’s hard to criticize them because I’ve had very bad experiences with other companies. However, if I am to be hypercritical, I would say their prices could be more competitive.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Be prepared, and be as specific as possible. However, don’t overthink. They bring a lot to the table and will help guide you along the way.
The client is satisfied with the work of the team at Pixoul. Their work matches the stated goals and needs of the client, and the team is communicative, innovative, and proactive.
