The bank's investors were looking for a reliable contractor to develop an official website for Bank Lviv, as well as its further maintenance..

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We chose the company on several criteria, namely, for expertise and experience in implementing such projects. The contractor was to be located in the region itself, where the bank's head office is located. The contractor wanted not only to create a project but also to actively develop it in the future. The Redstone company fully meets these criteria.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

The process of developing the site lasted about 6 months, as it included several stages, namely: marketing research, drawing the design concept, developing the design of all pages of the site, working with html mockups, software part and official launch. Because the banking industry is quite dynamic and needs reflective changes, we are constantly working on additions to the site and the guys from Redstone are helping us.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We are constantly in touch with our key account manager through whom we communicate with developers and specialists in various areas of the Redstone company.

High quality of work, easy communication, timely technical support whether it is a working or weekend day and transparent conditions of cooperation. We tend to believe that this is a very customer-oriented company with good service!

Our key account manager uses a flexible method of managing our project. We recognize that the project approach method chosen by our manager is effective!

For what projects/services did your company hire REDSTONE, and what were your goals?

Our company wanted to upgrade the existing site making it with modern design, user-friendly interface and simple navigation with many integrations and advanced functionality.

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

Our choice was based on detailed market research. We analyzed more than 15 companies in our country before choosing Redstone. When choosing a contractor, we paid attention primarily to his expertise in the field of website development with similar functionality, and work with companies operating in the financial sector. We have entrusted the implementation of this project to Redstone and we are glad that our choice was based on them.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

First of all, it should be noted that the project itself is multi-stage, and is constantly changing according to trends in the financial sector and the financial services market.

The guys from Redstone took part in all stages: development and implementation of design, were engaged in software development, participated in work with and also carried out numerous integrations with third-party resources.

As a main steps we can enumerate: design and structure with different contemporaneous features as possibility of sending phone number, loan calculator online, applications online, etc. And elaboration of design and structure for 7 types of personal cabinets for our partners, clients and employees.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

On behalf of Redstone, Redstone's Technical Director, Project Manager, and a team of several technical developers were involved in the implementation of our project. After the official launch of the project, we have a project manager and several developers who are constantly in touch with us.

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

Cooperation with Redstone brought us only positive impressions! We especially appreciate their ability to find a way out of situations in which other professionals would probably give up and drop their hands! After launching the new site we raised the quantity of visitors twice.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

It would be unfair to identify only one project management method that they used during the development of our project. They skillfully combined different project methods, and always completed a specific stage of work within the specified period according to the contract.

In communication, we use mail for official correspondence, Skype for operational tasks, and a messenger called Viber for communication during non-working hours if necessary. These guys know what it's like to be constantly in touch. I would mention that we are from different countries and during this period, we never meet face-to-face, which not influenced the efficiency of the project.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their ability to clearly understand the needs of their client impressed us. If necessary, if the situation requires it, the guys will dissuade you from a decision that they think will not benefit you. They also argue this with examples! And yes, they always keep in stock alternative solutions to both technical issues and their implementation.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

They do a great job and deserve our positive feedback. We, as one of the leading companies in our region, recommend working with this company. They will not only develop a useful and practical thing for you in the web space, but also make it work well!

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am a Project Manager at a VC start-up firm. Here, I oversee and manage a number of different projects, both internal and client-facing.

For what projects/services did your company hire REDSTONE, and what were your goals?

We had hired Redstone to help complete the development of a corporate branded website for one of our clients. We had previously worked with another team who provided us with the UX/UI design but did not have the resources to develop and deploy the website with the timeline given. The challenge was developing a website for a client in a manner of 2 weeks.

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We had searched for high-level developers who would turnaround and deliver on launching the website in our tight timeframe. Redstone was one of the only agencies who was up for the challenge, as they were confident that they would be able to deliver . Ultimately it was their confidence that led us to selecting Redstone.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

We started with a quick phone call explaining our immediate needs. From there I sent over the Figma file which contained all of the Design assets necessary as well as the Hi-Fi wireframe to Redstone. From there they quickly implemented the design into a WordPress site in roughly 2 weeks.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

I worked directly with Yaroslav, who was our account manager. He provided a very direct line of communication with me and communicated all of our needs effectively with his team.

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

The website was extremely well received and our clients were ecstatic to see the final product.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

We spoke daily through Telegram since we needed to communicate across borders. Though a little unorthodox, it was an efficient means of communication and the website was able to get launched in time.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their quick turnaround time was impressive.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Not really.

Please describe your company and your position there.

“Pizza Letta” is a pizza bakery & delivery service. It was found in 2018 in Lviv, Ukraine. At the moment, we have 2 bakeries within one city with 78 workers on board. Pizza Letta is a well-known brand & our product appears to be the most delicious pizza around the town.

We produce & deliver nearly 600 pcs per day. My name is Andrew Ivanov, I am the Operations Manager. One of my main tasks is the control and communication on the implementation of works in the field of SMM, CRM and website.

For what projects/services did your company hire REDSTONE?

We were forced to find new web developers for our pizza delivery, since the previous site was not flexible to use. Any adjustments we had to wait for a months, the reason was that the previous contractor developed our site on Ruby.

And all the changes we needed to make, we had been waiting for them for a long time and they were expensive for us. And it was these costly and long-awaited factors that made us look for new programmers.

What were your goals for this project?

When we started looking for specialists, we had the following developer requirements:

• The site should not be visually different from the old one, and the style of the brand should be saved.
• The site should be flexible to innovate and adjustments.
• The site should be easily accessible for integration with third-party CRM products
• All planned changes to the site should be made in a short time and be of good quality.

How did you select this vendor?

REDSTONE company was recommended to us by our company owner’s friend, who was highly satisfied with their work on the website for his café chain “Lviv’s croissants”.

Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.

With REDSTONE team is very comfortable to work. All the wishes we voiced, they fulfilled, and we have never heard that it is not possible. They came up with a very cool idea with a visualized pizza designer, and with this advice we became the first company in the Lviv market to have this functionality on the website.

They are also very detailed and responsible for their tasks. Such as, when I asked to change the page template after we approved it, they drew it in a short time and launched it on the main version of the site.

What was the team composition?

5 specialists were involved to work with us. I solved almost all the questions directly with the project manager in telephone mode or in meetings. We used different communication channels (viber, email, meetings, phone calls). In my opinion this is not a template solution, as I could call at 9pm and inform that I want to make some changes, and my appeal was easily accepted.

The moment when we were sent technical documents (audits, recommendations) was very comfortable. When owners of our company didn't understand some things, the project manager (Alexander) came to our office and explained everything very simply, which had a great influence on making a quick decision.

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

Creating this site gave us the opportunity to sell pizzas of different diameters, namely 30cm. After we introduced this option the number of pizzas sold increased by 40%, and this result exceeded our expectations. I cannot disclose the amount of money as it is a trade secret.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

As for me, the basis of project management is communication, and in REDSTONE there are no communication problems at all. Compared to the previous contractor, whose task could have been a week left unprocessed, these guys respond to the request within 30 minutes, and it is very convenient.

As I described above, the main source of communication is Viber and Email. No delays have been reported for REDSTONE at this time, all tasks are completed within clearly stated deadlines. There was one force majeure at the launch of the site, our site "lay down" but guys reacted instantly and 5 minutes after the appeal our site was working again.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

What is most striking is the clarity and responsible attitude to work. There are very few such criteria on the market right now. This is the moment when you are not worried about whether the changes will be made in time, since the entire department can wait for the ad campaign to run.

Are there any areas for improvement?

In my opinion, this company is a market leader, and in my experience of working with them, I have nothing to offer for improvement.
