Smart Software Ltd.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the co-founder of a pre-revenue start-up working on developing solutions for tax professionals in Bangladesh.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Smart Software Ltd., and what were your goals?

We hired Altar to initially develop a scope of work and initial UI/UX mock-ups for our planned MVP. The detailed scope of work would then serve to help us to better allocate resources and time for the development and launch of the MVP.

SOLUTION

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

I had already worked with Altar in the past and was impressed by their professionalism, fast response times, transparency, and high quality of the deliverables. When considering outsourcing for the development of our new project it was a no-brainer decision to work with Altar.

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

The project that we contracted Altar.io was for the creation of a detailed scope document for the development of our MVP. The scope document included competitive landscape, identification of ICP, user-flows, UI/ux design and time/cost estimates for the delivery of the MVP.

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

there were 4 people that interfaced with most of the time, but there was a much larger team working on the deliverables on the backend. Most of my communications were with the Partner of the firm and a project manager.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The Altar team was able to deliver a very detailed project scope document along with mock-up screens of the UX/UI for the MVP. Along with the scope document the team delivered a detailed timeline for the development of our MVP under two scenarios that were presented during the scoping calls.

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

Communications with the Altar team took place regularly during the duration of the project. Responses to questions or inquiries where quickly responded to and addressed. The collaboration took place via video calls using Whereby.com and Miro.com for wireframing and use flow.

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

The team is extremely responsive and knowledgeable. During our collaboration, the Altar team readily shared best practices and shared a ton of valuable insights with us. We were very impressed with their talent, professionalism, and quick turnaround on the deliverables.

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

None that I can think of at this time.
