RiseApp'z

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am a Marketing Manager at act Botezatu Estrade Law firm.

For what projects/services did your company hire RiseApp'z, and what were your goals?

We are a team of agile lawyers, all sourced from top international and local law firms, with an impressive track record of achievements acquired over time in high-profile transactions and complex disputes conducted in a wide array of practice areas.

Our idea was to create an innovative mobile app that can serve as a guide and lawyer contact tool with useful information on the behavior of target entities and individuals involved in an activity conducted by a judicial authority (e.g. police, prosecutors, DNA, DIICOT, court) during the course of investigation proceedings. That is why we needed a team of experienced software engineers that could understand our goals and thus complete the project in a very fast and clean manner.

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

We initially reached out to several different vendors when we began searching. RiseApp’z offered thorough analysis and experienced advice before we even agreed to hire them, which was very impressive. RiseApp’z stood out as a certified ISO 27001 supplier with the capabilities and proficiency to build what’s most necessary for what we needed. We also paid attention to their portfolio and testimonials and we knew they are the one. More than that they were friendly (and remained that way after signing the contract) and we were amazed by their genuine willingness to really help and deliver a great project. We were really happy with their after delivery program – three month free maintenance after that.

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

RiseApp’z built the entire mobile platform, both front-and-backend, for us from the ground up. They completed the coding and the application was completely customized. The application is for both iOS and Android devices and then they gave us the backend for the administration of the application. Both versions are completely finished and are available to download both on Play Store and Apple Store.

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

There were four people assigned to our project: a Web Developer, a Mobile App Developer, a QA Tester and a Project Manager.

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

These app was very well received by our clients and it represented a first in the legal market in Romania. Our position on the market and general perception has significantly improved. That is why we have created another mobile application for our clients with RiseApp’z too.

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

They were using Slack in communication and Agile principles in their processes, but the most impressive project management style was the natural and transparent way to communicate the process. We weren’t a technical team so they explained technical details in a manner that everything was easily understood.

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

The Project Manager – that was our main point of contact made all the communication very easy, he communicated the ongoing process in a very friendly manner and that assured our peace of mind that the project was in very good hands. They seem to really understand the project objective and they make all the necessary steps to build the app that returns ROI, like it was their business. They delivered on time and they were very transparent, plus they are a budget-friendly company.

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

We were satisfied all the way through! The RiseApp’z team did a great job!
