What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
RootQuotient went beyond our expectations, especially for an MVP. Specifically, we’ve received positive UX feedback from beta users we’ve interviewed recently.
We’ve also garnered positive reception on sharing different file formats and about privacy-first settings within the chats. We love that they continue to meet our customers’ expectations.
How did RootQuotient perform from a project management standpoint?
They did a really good job at project management.
First, we brainstormed the requirements along with their team, and they were able to suggest features related to the performance of the app. Next, for communication, they scheduled daily calls during the analysis phase, where we discussed the requirements.
Subsequently, they managed the product from the early prototype stages, and we drafted the requirements for the MVP. The design and development were really based on those requirements, and on an agile methodology. We used Azure DevOps as a project management tool, and we had four development sprints for the MVP.
Everything went according to plan, and they did a good job categorizing our user’s stories and features.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Their turnaround time is truly phenomenal. I was really amazed at how quickly they could turn around with a solution, a backup solution, or an alternate solution. For example, they made two design iterations in order to ensure that development wouldn’t be lagging. Their design iterations and solution methodologies were pretty fast, and the quality was impeccable.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, not really. We learned a lot of things from their team, and they were open to hearing our business strategy and our vision for future achievements. We consistently learn from each other, and RootQuotient did their job of providing a technical partnership.
I appreciate their insights into how the app should evolve and how we can set a roadmap for future success.
Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?
Clients should bring proper requirements to RootQuotient, so that they can deliver the right solution quickly. We didn’t have our requirements solidified in some cases, so our solutions would take more time to implement. It's important to come prepared so RootQuotient can provide the fast turnaround that clients value.
