Unfortunately they have created the web and apps platforms, basically with lack of many advanced features to ease the operation and management. And although the solution is offered initially to Turkish audience, they didn't take in consideration the requirements and adaptions for that.

Only you hear good words and communications till the get your money

Company Responses

The vendor responded on January 2, 2019.

We had accepted to develop the website and mobile apps for the food delivery startup, and we completed the original scope of work (SoW) well within the committed time. The final result was supposed to just be an MVP. 

However, the CEO kept coming back with requests for new features he’d seen in other apps, thinking that it would help him gain a foothold in the market. Having worked with numerous startups, we knew how important it was to be accommodating, so we accepted a few of the requests, even though they were outside of the SoW. 

Eventually, we had to politely turn down the newer features, and some of the ones we were working on had to be trimmed down because the CEO wasn’t in the position to maintain funding. 

All the same, he kept pestering to include more and more despite us clearly communicating that we couldn’t go much further beyond the scope. We offered to prepare a detailed project plan at no cost for when he decided to upgrade in the future. We had to pull the plug as the beyond-the-scope discussions were taking too much of our team’s time.

Now, the CEO is blaming us for hiccups that we weren’t responsible for like he’s failure to share a domain name system (DNS), inability to follow log-in instructions, and insistence on using a shared server rather than a dedicated one (we explained that the solution needed to have a dedicated server or else it wouldn’t run).

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

We’re a digital agency that develops customized applications for small and medium-sized business. We focus on online ordering systems.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Planet Web Solutions Pvt. Ltd.?

We hired them to assist with some development work focused on building an online ordering system.

What were your goals for this project?

The goal was to create a tool that could convert CSS files and upload them into a backend application. We wanted to create a complete website.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We connected multiple times online. After personally visiting the office in India, I felt very comfortable with the team and the overall setup of their operation.

Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.

We started the engagement with an in-person meeting where we walked through our requirements in detail. They designed and developed the front- and backend of a web-based e-commerce application. The team is also providing ongoing development work for several other projects.

What was the team composition?

The team consisted of a project/product manager, a frontend developer, a backend developer, and a QA analyst.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?

Their development team has substantially impacted our ability to scale and grow as we bring on new clients.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

We communicated directly with a product manager at the company. From a communications standpoint, it was great to have a direct point of contact who was very responsive.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

They’re extremely hardworking and dedicated to their work. They don’t lose patience with high expectations and do their absolute best to deliver the results you want to see.

Are there any areas for improvement?

My only suggestion is that they show more care with quality assurance and quality control during the final stages of development. Outside of the final stages, whenever we pointed out something that was overlooked, they were always very quick to fix the problem.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the regional manager of Wikisiha, a healthcare company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Planet Web Solutions Pvt. Ltd.?

I needed a company to help develop our medical consulting app.

SOLUTION

They made the updates on the website and mobile apps, and now it’s perfect. I will continue working with them for future updates.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

They bring my ideas to life and know what I need. The apps aren’t yet in the market, but we’re about to start promotion—a lot of doctors and hospitals are very interested. It’s a very nice app, and everything is working according to schedule.

How did Planet Web Solutions Pvt. Ltd. perform from a project management standpoint?

It’s very organized. They put all the issues together then fix each, one by one. My server was down on a weekend, so I called them, and immediately, they got the site back up and running. They made things clear for me, stayed within budget, and met timelines, even if it meant working overtime. At the end of the week, they would send me a very detailed email report with updates on the issues. We generally communicated over Skype.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their manager is a quiet, professional man, who makes you feel at home and in safe hands. He doesn’t push you what to do; rather he knows how to deal with customers.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I can't name anything right now.
