the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the COO for a company called Damage Prevention Solutions LLC. We manufacture underground damage prevention equipment for public utilities.
What challenge were you trying to address with SharePoint Designs?
We started utilizing SharePoint internally for all of our workflow, repository, central calendar and documentation and stuff through Microsoft 365. Our intranet was a SharePoint site and left a little bit to be desired, functionally speaking.
What was the scope of their involvement?
We contacted SharePoint Designs to help us build out improvements to that internal site based on requirements that we laid out for them. They came up with the layout based on our list of uses that we wanted to have, and then added recommendations from there. Once we had the design finalized, they implemented everything and migrated it over to our live site so that we could start using it.
They did such a good job on the internal project that we actually brought their team on to update our website as well, which has just launched, and we are quite pleased with the final product. The team is providing ongoing support for that site now as well.
What was the team composition?
They had a team of people working on the project behind the scenes, but most of the interfacing was between Venkatesh (CEO), myself, and our marketing coordinator.
How did you come to work with SharePoint Designs?
I believe I found them through a LinkedIn post originally. I reached out, we had a dialogue, and just took things from there. I liked their process and the pricing was competitive, so we decided to partner with them.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve spent about $10,000 in total.
What is the status of this engagement?
The partnership started around May 2020 and is still ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
All of the feedback we’ve received both internally and externally on the sites they worked on has been incredibly positive. The internal site in particular is much cleaner and more functional for our team, which has boosted the efficiency of our workflows significantly.
How did SharePoint Designs perform from a project management standpoint?
I don’t believe they ever missed a deadline, and if they did it was because of one of our change orders. We communicated primarily over Teams and Zoom calls if they had to take over any of our computers for anything. They always helped us to stay on top of everything that was going on, which we really appreciated.
What did you find most impressive about them?
The level of customer service that they provide is really on another level. We didn’t go that far outside of the original scope, but we did ask them for some changes later in the project and never had to worry about the cost of those. They were always willing to make sure that we were satisfied with the final form of the product no matter what, which was outstanding.
Are there any areas they could improve?
It would be hard for me to pinpoint anything specific that I think they could be doing differently. You can get ahead of just about any problem as long as you’re communicating in an open and honest way, and they always were.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Have your requirements and goals clearly mapped out in advance, because the better you do that, the faster you’ll be able to hit the ground running with their team and the fewer changes you’ll have to make down the line.
The final products delivered by SharePoint Designs completely satisfied project stakeholder requirements, in large part because of the team’s complete flexibility in meeting any changes or requests the client had later on in the project. They were organized, skilled, and communicative at all times.
