NewsMaker - Media Production System Development

We developed News Maker – a cutting-edge high-performance news and media production system for different types of users – journalists, editors, video designers, sound producers, voice-over and subtitle specialists, etc.

To simplify content production process Romexsoft developed a video workflow automation for a file-based content system (including automated content assembly). As a result, the system needed less manpower which led to cost-saving – 9 working places instead of 12 ones which included additional paperwork and the cost of phone calls.

Developing a custom media production system instead of buying a ready solution and improving its functionality helped save costs up to 90%.

Time: 2 years

Team: 9 people

Technologies: Java/Spring/Struts/Hibernate, HTML/CSS/JavaScript, Apache Tomcat/MySQL, ActiveMQ - message broker, Apache Lucene - full text search,...

Colorjive - Online Graphic Editor Development

Romexsoft developed Colorjive Lite 2.0 – an HTML5 application which allows users to perform full paint job in less than 10 minutes. The technology is based on the idea that color involves three participants: light, surface, and an observer. Integrating this technology gave Colorjive a competitive advantage as most color-matching software only takes the surface into account using an RGB calculation.

For better distinguishing between objects and greater use of color, The Paint Bucket algorithm has been used, which gave an opportunity to process images more quickly and increase user engagement.

New design enhanced user experience, making the application easy to use and highly serviceable.

Developing Colorjive Widgets increased Colorjinn’s income by allowing the transition into B2B model targeting on design studios besides independent designers.

Open Market - Advertisement Managing System Development

Radio broadcasting company Radio 24 had a need in managing multiply radio streams in different cities, simplifying workflow and resolving the issues of people working with placing advertising orders, checking their compliance with legislation and standards, monitoring the execution of tasks.

Romexsoft developed OpenMarket web application, which allows to manage those advertisements and control the broadcasting process on different radio stations. OpenMarket gives an opportunity to see all ads, schedule their timeline and mix their positions depending on the target audience.

The application provides flexible configuration of user rights in the system. That is, the system does not have rigidly defined user roles; each user can be assigned with particular rights that are necessary for performing the duties.

Now, OpenMarket is used by 2 radio stations that have up to 50 regional substations providing an opportunity to process over 5000 ads per day.

SavvyMoney - Fintech Web Application Development

 

At the start of the assignment, Romexsoft provided Rescue Mission service and improved website performance from 80% up to 98% by using REST architecture. This gave an opportunity for the system to maintain more than 250k users without system crashes. At the moment application is running online 24/7.

The rapid traffic growth led to a need of adding resources on Amazon Web Services every time it happened and terminating such resources when the traffic falls in order to reduce costs. By adding an auto-scaling feature we created a cost-effective model reducing man-hours and 60k USD yearly of the total cost of Amazon Web Services resources.

Romexsoft team has helped SavvyMoney develop a new product such as SavvyMoney Credit Score which is designed to monitor financial health based on SSO solution for integration with financial business partner software systems. This solution allowed the transition into B2B model targeting on credit union users and creating co-...

The Review
Feedback summary: 

Romexsoft brought in a lot of knowledge and expertise in the projects. There has been a significant improvement in the quality of the projects and received positive feedback for the reliability. The team demonstrated professionalism and made sure to deliver work within the timeframe and budget.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your organization.

We are a product development consultancy specializing in product and project management for medium to large companies, as well as startups. We provide other expertise, like product management, customer development, development of software and hardware, as well as UX/UI [user experience/user interface] design.

What is your position?

I am the head of project management.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What business challenge were you trying to address with Romexsoft?

Our primary focus is on product management. We partner with a number of studios for technology development work. Romexsoft is one of those studios and we leverage them to help us build solutions faster than we would be able to otherwise

SOLUTION

Please describe the scope of their involvement.

Romexsoft has worked on quality assurance for a number of our projects. We have a research and development studio that collaborates with their team in order to ensure that our technology is of the highest quality. They handle everything, from software testing to documentation.

They've worked on a healthcare platform for feedback and surveys aimed at users in the United Kingdom. Another project involved online transactions. Our products come as web and mobile applications for iOS and Android.

We work on regression testing, manual as well as automated tests, usability testing and so on. We've used the environments set up by Romexsoft and we’ve found them very effective.

We've worked on four or five projects simultaneously with Romexsoft. At the moment, we only work with them for quality assurance projects, but it is possible that we will contract them for technology development in the future.

How did you come to work with Romexsoft?

Our main office is in London, but my partner is based in Ukraine. He is in charge of creating a partner network and forging contacts. He participates in a lot of events as a result, and came across Romexsoft at one of them.

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

The total cost for their services has been between $14-28,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

Most of our projects remain ongoing. Our most recent quality assurance project was for our financial application.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Could you share any statistics or metrics from this engagement?

Once we've decided to engage in quality assurance services from Romexsoft, the quality of our projects improved significantly. The company we'd employed to develop our technology also handled our QA, so we needed to apply an external perspective into the work they provided. Romexsoft brought in a lot of knowledge and insight into how the developers for that project were performing and what their level of quality was. Their project manager is in charge of the QA department. He is very knowledgeable in this area, and we've had a generally positive experience. We’ve never had an issue in which we’ve delivered a defective solution to and end-customer.

How did Romexsoft perform from a project management standpoint?

They're a professional company. Estimations are done on a two-week basis. Romexsoft has always stuck to them in terms of delivery time and cost.

We use Jira and Taiga for project management. Romexsoft is also developing a custom platform for status tracking, which will be available to users very soon. We communicate primarily through Slack and Skype. Romexsoft also collaborates directly with our other partners, sometimes coming to work in the same building. Face-to-face relationships are always positive.

What distinguishes Romexsoft from other providers?

From my experience in working with a number of partners, I found Romexsoft to be driven by knowledge and always keen on extending their expertise. Their team attends various seminars and classes constantly, which keeps them on the cutting-edge.

Feedback summary: 

Romexsoft delivered their work on time and within budget. They have an exceptional talent pool from which to draw and the ability to scale their team in accordance with project demand. They also have excellent communication skill, both in written and spoken.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your organization.

We offer a comprehensive product for credit unions, banks and other vendors, which allows their clients to have access to credit scores and find savings opportunities on an ongoing basis.

What is your position?

I am the vice president of products.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What business challenge were you trying to address with Romexsoft?

Keep costs low and leverage scaling up the development organization as we grew.

SOLUTION

Please describe the scope of their involvement.

Romenxsoft handles most of the software development for our key website. They also provide QA [quality assurance] services for us.

How did you come to work with Romexsoft?

They were referenced by a staff member. We considered a couple of other companies, but Romexsoft stood out through their ability to scale their resources. They were able to give us a dedicated team with a project manager and organized them fairly quickly. The cost was a big contributing factor, as it always is when outsourcing, but their flexibility and scalability mattered most to us.

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

On an annual basis, we spent between $200,000-1,000,000 with Romexsoft.

What is the status of this engagement?

We have an ongoing relationship with them.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Could you share any statistics or metrics from this engagement?

We don’t publish metrics.

How did Romexsoft perform from a project management standpoint?

They delivered their work on time and within budget.

We used standard tools for project management, including Jira for tracking our bi-weekly Scrum-based sprints.

What distinguishes Romexsoft from other providers?

They have very good developers. The Romexsoft team is fairly well versed in English, both written and spoken. We haven't had the same problem with them as with other vendors.

Is there anything Romexsoft could have improved or done differently?

Comparably, Romexsoft is smaller than traditional outsourcing companies and, thus, they don’t always have resources available to us on-demand, especially when more specific technical expertise is needed for a short project.

This is not so much a negative, as it is an observation. We expect that Romexsoft will have a richer roster as they grow.

Feedback summary: 

Romexsoft successfully delivered the therapy system. Its overall functionalities provided the company an advantage over its competitors. The team exercised competence, meticulous approach to Agile development and responsiveness throughout the development phase.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your organization.

We're a software company. Our software is designed for the home health industry.

What is your position?

I'm the founder.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What business challenge were you trying to address with Romexsoft?

We were looking for developers to implement the product that we envisioned. We outsourced the entire development. We did a bit of research and ended up with Romexsoft.

SOLUTION

Please describe the scope of their involvement.

They are our entire development team, and they've been able to accomplish every challenge that was thrown at them. The product has been functioning and has been on the market for a while. It's very successful, and that speaks for itself.

Our system enables companies in the home health space to operate all aspects of their activity: business operational aspects as well as clinical. There are thousands of implemented features. The product is evolving constantly. We're adding new features and expanding to other niches of the home health industry. Development is going on all the time.

They use a variety of tools. The software itself is Java-based. We also use Adobe Air, which is a client development tool. I pass on some of the architectural aspects and business requirements to the team lead. I work with that person, and he manages the team there. We have five developers and two QA [quality assurance] people.

We have some influence on the people assigned to our project but, mostly, we leave it up to them.

How did you come to work with Romexsoft?

I scoured the Internet, and asked my colleagues. I don't exactly know who passed the information to me, but we began conversations with them and brought them on board eventually.

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

We've spent roughly $1.5 million.

What is the status of this engagement?

We began working together in 2009. It's an ongoing relationship.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Could you share any statistics or metrics from this engagement?

The success of the product speaks for itself. We are far ahead of our competition in terms of features, usability, and overall strategic direction. The team at Romexsoft has added to our internal strength. Together, we have been an unmatched combination.

How did Romexsoft perform from a project management standpoint?

There will always be defects, but there is a QA team to catch them. They have been very professional and competent about delivering objectives. Their technical strength is bar none as far as my own experience goes. Their competence is one of the key elements of our success.

We collaborate through our tech software, JIRA, with which we track features, bugs, and overall progress.

What distinguishes Romexsoft from other providers?

I haven't worked with any other offshore company, but I know that I wouldn't even consider working with anybody else at this point, having experienced their quality of work. As far as unique capabilities, I couldn't compare them to another offshore firm, but they deliver all their requirements successfully, and we've had a productive relationship.

Is there anything Romexsoft could have improved or done differently?

I can't really cite anything specific. They had their process down 100 percent. Any issues that came up, they have resolved. No relationship or company is going to be immune to this. The question is how well those things are dealt with, and how many people are sitting on top of them. That is critical, and it's never been an issue.

My recommendation for prospective clients is to have someone engaged on their side. I am that person here. I don't know if the relationship would be as successful if we had a hands-off approach. We are very much engaged. We don't actually do development work, but we're involved in user acceptance testing, and providing good, solid specifications. This isn't anything specific to Romexsoft. It's going to be true for any firm of that kind.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your organization.

We make digital color tools for the home deco industry. For instance, software that allows you to upload a photo of your own home and apply new colors onto it. We have product configurators and so on.

What is your position?

I am the founder and chief executive officer.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What business challenge were you trying to address with Romexsoft?

We couldn't find enough qualified engineers in Holland. We started to look elsewhere, and came across Romexsoft. We just needed more resources available to complete our project work within our timeframes. Scalability and cost effectiveness were big factors in our search. 

SOLUTION

Please describe the scope of their involvement.

We have projects that use Flash and Java. We have staff in Amsterdam that supervise the people at Romexsoft. After awhile, we started giving them more and more responsibility. Eventually, they did things on their own. We interact directly with the engineers.

When we started out, they operated as a contractor for us. During the course of the years, they became kind of an extension of our own team. That's worked very well for us.

Delegating developers for our projects is a shared responsibility. They will come up with some people that might be a good fit, and we discuss it. They don't impose anyone on us. It's really a two-way discussion. We always have the power to switch people around if we feel like we need to.

How did you come to work with Romexsoft?

We found them through general research. Resource availability was a determining factor in choosing them, along with price.

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

It runs in the hundreds of thousands, but I'd rather not be too exact.

What is the status of this engagement?

The relationship is ongoing although, at the moment, we don't have many projects. That's not their fault, though. If the work picks up, I'm certainly planning on extending our collaboration.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Could you share any statistics or metrics from this engagement?

We have collaborated with other IT [information technology] companies. By comparison, our team, including Romexsoft, was able to deliver faster and at lower cost. Together with them, I think we work more efficiently than much of the competition. At times, I need to slow them down a bit. They keep working during the night and on weekends, and I have to tell them that it's not that urgent. That has been my problem, rather than getting them to work.

How did Romexsoft perform from a project management standpoint?

They've always delivered on time, although that has been largely my own responsibility as well. I acted as project manager in most cases. The tools we use for project management are JIRA, Basecamp, Google Hangouts, and agile.

What distinguishes Romexsoft from other providers?

They take it personally to deliver upstanding work. It's very much a part of their corporate culture. I appreciate that about them.

Is there anything Romexsoft could have improved or done differently?

I couldn't think of anything. Through the years, we've worked as a joint process and, whatever we do, we always keep improving.

My advice to anyone looking to manage an IT [information technology] project is to know what they need. I always define the problem first. Every piece of software exists to solve a problem. When that is clear, the management becomes much easier. You can delegate to developers, and they can come up with solutions. When the problem is not clear, and you just need a page with a button here and there, they won't understand what it's about, and the solution will be below par.

Another tip is not to try to control them too much. Give them some space to do their own work. You have to remember that they're the experts, and your job is to guide their thinking, not actually manage their problem solving.
