- Review Type: Phone Interview

**The Review** — Feb 15, 2023

**Feedback Summary**: The client and the end customer were happy with SPD Group’s good work. They integrated with the client’s internal team quickly. The team was timely, good at project management using GitHub, and communicative through Slack and phone calls. Their overall work process was impressive.
"“SPD Group did an excellent job, and our end client was very satisfied.”"

**BACKGROUND**
Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m a director at a consulting firm.

**OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE**
What challenges were you trying to address with SPD Group?

We had a project to develop for one of our clients and needed external help for frontend engineering. Although we have an internal team, we’re also used to working with external contractors. However, our contractors had moved to other activities, so we decided to give offshoring a try.

**SOLUTION**
What was the scope of their involvement?

SPD Group provided us with two frontend engineers. We interviewed three candidates and decided to go with two of them. The engineers we hired worked with PipeScript, React, and Redux.

What was the team composition?

We worked with two teammates from SPD Group.

How did you come to work with SPD Group?

A business developer from SPD Group contacted me on Linkedin. After that, we started discussions, and I met their CTO, who was located in Ukraine. He gave me more insight into their work and sent me some resumes. 

How much have you invested in them?

We spent €60,000 (approximately $64,000 USD). 

What is the status of this engagement? 

The project lasted from September 2022–February 2023.

**RESULTS & FEEDBACK**
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

I’m very satisfied with the work SPD Group did. Just a couple of days after integrating with our team, SPD Group started working on the code and implementing features. Overall, SPD Group did an excellent job, and our end client was very satisfied. 

How did SPD Group perform from a project management standpoint?

They met all deadlines. We used GitHub for project management and communicated via Slack and phone calls. SPD Group’s teammates were good English speakers, so we had no issues communicating with them.

What did you find most impressive about them?

SPD Group’s process was impressive. After our initial meeting with their CTO, they sent us resumes of developers that matched our needs and expectations. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

I can’t think of anything SPD Group needed to change.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Give SPD Group’s developers a chance to learn something new and to have ownership of the features they’re building.

#### Mobile App Dev Support for Software Development Company
**The Project**
- Services: Mobile App Development
- Project size: $50,000 to $199,999
- Project length: Mar. 2020 - Ongoing

**Review Rating**: 4.0

- Review Type: Phone Interview

**The Review** — May 17, 2022

**Feedback Summary**: All tasks are delivered on budget, and internal stakeholders are more than satisfied with SPD Group's performance. Their multi-channel communication has been beneficial, as has their ability to work under a lead assigned by the client. The overall competence of the assigned resources stands out. 
""The results are good. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be working with them." "

**BACKGROUND**
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I am the CEO of a software development company that provides B2B and B2C solutions.


**OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE**
What challenge were you trying to address with SPD Group?
Their team is helping us outsource some of our development positions by assigning a couple of resources to us. 


**SOLUTION**
What was the scope of their involvement? 
We are building a marketplace application for sporting activities that's available on Android and iOS. SPD Group is providing us with the resources, but we provided the requirements and are driving the idea and implementation from our side.
What is the team composition?
It changes depending on the intensity of the work, but, on average, there are about five people. We have a team lead on our side who's in contact with their resources.
How did you come to work with SPD Group?
We were introduced to them by someone we knew. 
How much have you invested in them?
The cost is somewhere between $150,000–$200,000 at this point.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with them in March 2020, and the relationship is ongoing. 


**RESULTS & FEEDBACK**
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
The main metrics are the tasks being done and my team lead's satisfaction with the engagement, and we're satisfied with their performance in both categories. There is some room for improvement — we experience bugs and crashes — but they're a normal part of the development process. All in all, the results are good. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be working with them.
How did SPD Group perform from a project management standpoint?
They've been good in this regard. Projects are never usually on time or on budget, but that isn’t SPD's fault; it's more because there are always hidden features and requirements that appear along the way. We use our own project management tool, and communication has been fine. over emails, phone calls, and meetings. 
What did you find most impressive about them?
SPD Group provides a very good service and solid developers; we've had a very good experience.
Are there any areas they could improve?
At the end of the day, I don’t think there is anything for them to improve at this point. 
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Communication is the key to success.

#### Custom Software Dev for Biotech Company
**The Project**

- Project size: Confidential
- Project length: May 2019 - Ongoing

**Project Summary**: SPD Ukraine provides outsourced developers to assist in creating medical device simulators. Working both as product lifecycle drivers and collaboratively on requirements, they create all bespoke solutions.

**The Reviewer**
Senior Software Engineering Manager, Roche
- Industry: Other industries

- Client size: 10,001+ Employees
- Review Type: Phone Interview
- Verified

**The Review** — Apr 11, 2022

**Feedback Summary**: Where other engagements have seen delays and regressions in quality, SPD Group has well outstripped the industry expectations for the client. They excel at balancing different working styles and working across time zones. Customers can expect a transparent and straightforward partner. 
""They are doing a lot of training to keep their people and their skills up to the market expectations." "

**BACKGROUND**
Introduce your business and what you do there.

I am the senior software engineering manager at Roche. We’re a pharmaceutical company and we build medical devices.

We have two project teams that are working on different projects that are very similar in nature. We do different kinds of automation and are building software simulators for medical devices.

**OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE**
What challenge were you trying to address with SPD Group?

We have a combination of developers working here in Santa Clara and in the Bay area. We have a workforce working in this time zone, but by having another workforce working remotely, we are getting multiple benefits: there is someone that can still deliver the software fixes and run it overnight.

**SOLUTION**
What was the scope of their involvement? 

With SPD Ukraine, the whole hiring process is transparent. We are able to participate in it and can tell if someone is good or not.

We work with their software developers. They receive a task — sometimes it is something smaller, so they are able to deliver it the next day. We create a set of changes called a pull request, and we’ll review and test the code when we receive it back. We then accept and merge it and it becomes part of our codebase once it’s accurate. If there are any issues or changes needed, then we can provide feedback, and their team can provide a base that is necessary and run the process again.

Some of the team we are working with acts as our representatives. They gather the requirements, and by having all of this information in hand and this communication channel, they can drive the development on their side. They are basically product owners defining the requirements for their developers so that they can drive it with full-cycle independency.

All the deliverables are custom software. For a medical device, there is the hardware, chemistry, and consumables, and in order to build a simulator, you have to gather all the requirements and understand the behavior of each of the components and how they integrate and work together. Then, we build the software that mimics and pretends that it is actually doing it. This allows us to show it to business people without having them deal with real hardware that is undergoing upgrades or is expensive or impossible to get into the lab without special permission. There are a variety of different cases where they are helpful.

What is the team composition?

The last time I counted, I believe there were 15 team members, including different levels of software developers: senior and mid-level software developers, and a requirements engineer. There are 1–2 people more focused on DevOps type of work.

How did you come to work with SPD Group?

I’d worked with them in the past on some other projects, and when I joined Roche a few years later, we onboarded SPD Ukraine as our vendor.

What is the status of this engagement?

I believe it started in May 2019, and it is still ongoing.

**RESULTS & FEEDBACK**
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

They need to deliver software that meets a certain quality requirement, and those requirements speak for themselves. We don’t have much regression. Typically, in ongoing software development, when you are building a feature and then another one, the second feature potentially breaks the first one, but we aren’t having those types of issues. That is a really good time and quality metric for software development.  

The most important metric though is that there are some delays, but they aren’t because of SPD Group, but rather because the requirements changed. I don’t remember if there have been any delays or slips from the timeline that were purely because of SPD Group. Obviously, with the Russian Invasion of Ukraine, there are some additional challenges that we are experiencing, but prior to that, it has been just a positive experience.

How did SPD Group perform from a project management standpoint?

We are driving the team and doing the project management from our side. There have been some things that they delivered on their own, and from that perspective, they’ve done well with project management.

They are professionals as are we, so it is a perfect combination. We know what other professionals need to get the job done. From our side, we are trying to provide as much detail as possible and give them useful information to be able to start the development. It isn’t an issue or a concern, but because of the time zone difference, we have very little overlap with each other. We need to plan the work accordingly, as we have a small window to communicate. That has been the only challenge working with a team from Europe.

I like that we have periodic meetings where we provide feedback on the work and the individuals working for us . We’ve only had one time where something minor needed to be corrected.

For tools, we use industry best practices like Jira, Miro, and some other specific project management tools. We have multiple channels for communication, but the most common one is the Google ecosystem where we have Sheets, Docs, Chat and Hangouts. We also use Slack and email.

What did you find most impressive about them?

In the past, I worked with vendors from other countries like India. The challenge with that was there was even more of a time difference. Our morning is their night, and I used to run my stand-ups at 9 a.m. in California, which is midnight in India. After half a year of working that way, I saw that they couldn’t keep up with the pace.

With other vendors, there are some things that they do behind your back without telling you like training or engaging new team members, and by the performance of the team members, you can tell there is something happening, but you don’t know exactly what it is or how to explain it because you are just seeing the performance of the employees. These are things that have never happened with SPD. They are honest about what they’re doing and I really appreciate that.

Are there any areas they could improve?

As I mentioned, we are part of their hiring process, and if something goes wrong, it isn’t only their responsibility. It is really hard to distinguish what they can do differently because we are sharing the responsibility. We are trying to make a big impact and be more efficient by constantly identifying efficient tools, new libraries, and technologies that can help us move faster, as well as educate people. They are doing a lot of training to keep their people and their skills up to the market expectations of the knowledge of the most recent tools.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I believe you have to know what they want. If you can talk to people and explain what you need, then they can find the right people to get the job done.

**The Review** — Apr 1, 2022

**Feedback Summary**: The company was pleased with SPD Group, which delivered an AI tool that worked as they intended. They also managed the project with proactiveness. They were always on time and available to communicate with the stakeholders. They hit all project milestones, resulting in a successful engagement. 
"“Everything they did was good.”"

**BACKGROUND**
Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the senior director of IT for an investment group. 

**OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE**
What challenge were you trying to address with SPD Group?

We needed SPD’s help with AI tool development. 

**SOLUTION**
What was the scope of their involvement?

SPD helped us develop an AI tool for elementary school students. Using this tool, end users could copy and paste a paragraph that could be normal, intermediate, or advanced level. The AI would then automatically create multiple choice questions for the user. It would also let users delete or change questions. 

Once the questions were made, the user should click submit. The test questions would then go to Google Forms, which the user could send to students. The students could then go to Google Classroom and solve test questions.  

Our goal for this tool was to spend less time creating questions while checking the student’s general knowledge level. We could simply select a paragraph and create questions in a matter of minutes.

What is the team composition?

I worked with a project manager.

How did you come to work with SPD Group?

I found SPD through a freelancing website. One of my friends also recommended them, saying they were good developers of AI tools. Our team had asked other companies, but those firms refused to do the project. As a result, we hired SPD. 

How much have you invested with them?

We spent between $3,000–$4,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in July–October 2021. 

**RESULTS & FEEDBACK**
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

We were happy with SPD’s work. My partner and I were fully satisfied with their outputs, and the tool worked as intended. I’d hire them again if we had another project that suited their abilities. 

How did SPD Group perform from a project management standpoint?

SPD’s project management was perfect. Their manager was proactive, and she was always on time. Whenever we wanted to have a video call, she was available. She also explained everything well. To communicate, we used Upwork. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

They did a good job. If we forgot to ask anything, the project manager would remember and would explain everything to us. They also never missed a milestone. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, there weren’t any. Everything they did was good.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I recommend working with SPD; I wouldn’t think twice about it.

**The Review** — Mar 24, 2022

**Feedback Summary**: Within three months, SPD Group delivered a brand new version of the client’s app, allowing them to continue selling their product. The team has shown expertise in new technologies, always delivering quality work. They’re also very professional and collaborative, acting as part of the internal team.
"“SPD Group’s commitment to projects is impressive; we’ve never felt like they’re part of a different company.”"

**BACKGROUND**
Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CTO and CMO of Legal Shelf, a startup company that provides legal document management services in Latin America.

**OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE**
What challenge were you trying to address with SPD Group?

We had an existing product built on PHP, which was old technology, so we needed a development team to rebuild it on a newer technology stack.

**SOLUTION**
What was the scope of their involvement?

We needed to approach this project on a fixed-fee model to have predictability on the budget. Thus, SPD Group first assessed the project, which included reviewing the existing application's functionality and building all the user stories covered in it.

During this process, SPD Group brought a designer, who helped the analyst create an inventory of all the other user stories that we would need to cover with the new application. They also built the new wireframes necessary and estimated the effort that would be required to deliver each of those user stories.

Once we had the estimated overall cost of the project, we prioritized the tasks and planned the release schedule. There was one new piece of functionality that we prioritized, so SPD Group first worked on it. Then, they engaged a full development team, including frontend developers, backend developers, and infrastructure engineers, to build the system.

SPD Group built the product in three months based on that fixed budget. Since then, we’ve kept a small portion of their development team working with us on an ongoing basis.

For the frontend, we’re using React and React Native, and we’re hosting everything on AWS Lambda to have an on-demand infrastructure. Additionally, the middleware is built on Spring. This app is web-based, so we’ve built its frontend as a progressive web app to make it work on all devices and platforms. However, SPD Group has also helped us build an iOS app on Swift because Apple devices aren’t very friendly with progressive web apps.

The product is essentially a digital legal document library. It offers digital signatures, a repository, a sophisticated search engine, and metadata management capabilities. Additionally, it includes reporting features around the usage and content of documents.

The digital signature functionality was built specifically for Latin America — that is its main feature. Here, we can’t sign digital documents like they do in the US. There’s a sanctioned, advanced process involved in which the government participates. Thus, we integrated this system with that governmental infrastructure to make it work.

What is the team composition?

SPD Group’s team has included a project manager, an analyst who acts as product manager to gather requirements, and some designers. Additionally, we’ve worked with a development team that has included an iOS developer, up to three React and React Native frontend developers, a lead architect, and up to four backend developers. As we’re currently in maintenance mode, SPD Group’s core team includes the architect, the analyst, the project manager, a frontend developer, and a backend developer.

How did you come to work with SPD Group?

I’ve known SPD Group for a while, so this isn’t my first project with them. Originally, I was introduced to them through the CTO of the company I worked with back in 2011. Since then, they’ve been my favorite development firm to work with.

When Legal Shelf launched, they had used another development firm to build the product. Later, I got a call from them when they tried to get the new functionality built because they had a lot of issues doing so, and they were trying to move the application away from PHP. Knowing the urgency of this project and having known SPD Group for some time, I just brought them to the table to get the project done. 

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent over $250,000 on this project.

What is the status of this engagement?

I’ve worked with SPD Group on various projects since 2011, and our engagement is ongoing.

**RESULTS & FEEDBACK**
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

Within three months of working with SPD Group, we had a brand new version of our product with the new functionality we needed, so we were able to start selling it. We’ve measured the success of their work with QA and regression testing, and they’ve always delivered quality work.

Overall, they’re very good with these new technologies. Not a lot of people have implemented AWS Lambda, but SPD Group’s execution on it has been flawless.

How did SPD Group perform from a project management standpoint?

SPD Group has always delivered on time, even when we’ve had to push the deadlines. We use Shortcut as our project management and ticket management platform, and we use GitHub for the repository. Additionally, we communicate via Slack and Google Meet almost daily.

What did you find most impressive about them?

SPD Group’s commitment to projects is impressive; we’ve never felt like they’re part of a different company. For example, they had team members based in Ukraine who had to flee due to the Russian Invasion. Despite having some of those team members assigned to our project, SPD Group hasn’t missed a single deadline since the invasion started.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I don’t think that SPD Group could improve on anything. On one of my past projects with them, I wished that we had a stronger analyst. However, I can’t say that anymore because they’ve brought excellent resources to the table for this project for very reasonable rates. Nowadays, I can only wish that they weren’t in the middle of an invasion.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Ensure that you have a good in-house development process in place. SPD Group is great at integrating into your process, but they’re not the kind of company that uses their own process. If you have a good process in place, the project will be successful, but if not, they’ll use whatever your process is, and you’ll have to learn and adjust a lot on the go.

**BACKGROUND**
Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm the owner of a company that provides part-time technical project leadership.

**OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE**
For what projects/services did your company hire SPD Group, and what were your goals?

We were looking for startup-friendly, flexible, capable developers to manage updating an existing prototype / alpha product.

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

We hired two vendors initially, having each work in parallel. SPD was recommended by a trusted colleague, and after a few months it was clear to us to consolidate all work with them.

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

Laravel, PHP, MySql, AWS Lambda, and other third party libraries and services. The work is defined in releases. With each release, a scope is determined by me and the client and delivered to the team.

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

5 total have worked with us. 2 PMs, 1 QA, and 2 developers.

**RESULTS & FEEDBACK**
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

Customers have commented that the updates to the site are good and welcome. The client is gaining confidence in the quality after each new release. This product is not yet being actively promoted; basically currently it's in a beta / stealth mode.

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

Weekly demo meetings, Asana task management, Slack + MS Teams.

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

Caliber of developer talent is very high. Good communication. They quickly understood the application's goals and have been proactive in suggesting improvements in addition to the scope we have provided.

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

We are in very different time zones from the team; I don't expect that this is something for them to accommodate but it's my only difficulty so far.

**The Review** — Apr 12, 2021

**Feedback Summary**: Shortened ramp-up time speaks to the institutional knowledge the SPD Group's team has developed over the course of the relationship. Their perseverance and ability to solve problems have served them well in acclimating to a new, complex project. Future customers will encounter a committed partner.
""SPD Group does a great job of always finding a way to take the next step."
"

**BACKGROUND**
Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the principal engineer at an insurance company, working for the CTO and across the engineering teams.

**OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE**
What challenge were you trying to address with SPD Group?

We are working on building out our policy management system, and in doing that, we want to develop more billing functionality. We got in touch with SPD to help source additional staff to move that initiative forward.

**SOLUTION**
What was the scope of their involvement?

Our main effort is building up a billing service to be able to handle a basic workflow. Stages of that have been done, but we’re still in process.

The first deliverable was understanding an API with a company that we’re working with — an outside partner. This would give us a better understanding of how to enter into a business relationship with this outside partner.

Moving forward, they’ve worked to build internal interfaces, modifying workflow management and UI solutions so that internal resources can have a more automated way of accomplishing tasks as underwriters and customer success resources.

What is the team composition?

We started working with two people from SPD Group. One was more of a project manager and, the other was more technical. We’ve grown the team through them and are up to 13 resources.

How did you come to work with SPD Group?

We had ties between our business and references for SPD Group. Because of that, there was a lot more trust and faith that we’d receive results from them.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent between $50,000–$199,999 so far, and the total cost will continue to grow.

What is the status of this engagement?

We’ve been working together since July 2020, and we plan to continue working with them as long as we can give them meaningful work that helps them understand our company and our billing system.

**RESULTS & FEEDBACK**
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

The stage of the project that we’re in right now hasn’t been completed, so I can’t give too much information, but I can say that because SPD Group was able to ramp up and get people involved quickly, we’ve been able to grow the team at a faster and faster rate. The slowest and hardest part of the process to get 4–5 people on the project, but once we had them — a foundation of people that understood the company and permissions and knew how to get connected to the code base— it was much easier to work toward seven, eight, nine, 10, and 13 people.

One resource on the team is strong in UI development, and their work has been very helpful, both in building out UIs and planning the builds. They’ve joined our internal UI architects and developers to help build our billing process.

How did SPD Group perform from a project management standpoint?

The primary person managing and driving the team helps us handle the project management through Jira. We’ve also brought on a business analyst from SPD, and they help with communications and project tracking. They also help identify the needs of all our stakeholders and ensure that this information is communicated.

Everyone conducts themselves professionally. Just like any business, there are many challenges — sometimes it’s multiple business stakeholders with different priorities. We’re trying to work through the right way to get everything done, and the team at SPD helps us find out what’s really the best way.

What did you find most impressive about them?

It’s easy for anyone who gets involved in a new project — especially if they’re not used to it — to believe that the vendor will have a clean and clear understanding of what the goal is. They believe having written out documentation means there will be no questions and challenges to deal with. This isn’t the case a lot of the time, but SPD Group does a great job of always finding a way to take the next step. This step-by-step process has been fruitful because as they come up to speed, frustration could set in due to the lack of clarity. Additionally, they’ve allowed me to make progress when I don’t have full-time engineers to work in the space.

For the things they’ve had to learn and do, they’ve been graceful in dealing with adversity. The engineers are professional in finding the balance between asking hard questions and listening for what the current state is as we’re iterating.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I would have loved to have kept all the employees that started with us. Having our first assigned engineer stay with the project for around six months would have helped maintain the pact at which we ramped people up. They were one of the stronger engineers, and they were rotated off after a few months to a project that better suited their skills. SPD Group helped us continue forward, however.

The only other answer I can give is that, when you work with a team that has different business hours because of their time zone, it’s difficult to allocate time to answer all their questions as they ramp up. Their work has to be guided initially, and it took preparation on our side. That’s more on us to be aware of those effects than on SPD Group, though.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

They are good at finding ways to ramp up quickly, but I would remind other customers to provide extra time and support in that first week or so. It’s hard for someone to learn when they’re on their own.

Plan on building a long-term relationship with them, as well, as the investment to start the project will be most worth it if you maintain that relationship. Really work to build personal relationship connections between your employees and the people on SPD Group’s team. The latter will be able to drive the work eventually, but strong connections to internal employees will help in the early days.

As you build the team remotely, they’ll be able to ramp up new employees much easier. Additionally, document and record everything you’re doing as much as possible. If you have a meeting, make it a Zoom meeting and record the call. When there are differences from individual to individual in terms of language, being able to listen to what was said a second time helps everyone understand what’s going on. This also applies to taking clear notes on daily sync-ups.

Finally make sure that they know that you’re willing to hear questions and concerns, which will help you know where you’re really at.

The developers were experienced and knowledgeable, and they integrated well with the internal team. They were communicative and dedicated to project success.
""It was a very professional experience."
"

**BACKGROUND**
Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m a product owner at G-Accon, a data management company.

**OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE**
What challenge were you trying to address with SPD Group?

We contracted them for software development resources. 

**SOLUTION**
What was the scope of their involvement?

SPD provided us with one JavaScript developer and one developer with Microsoft technology knowledge to help us expand our custom software offerings. These included Google Sheet plugins and other platforms.

What is the team composition?

One of the developers was with us for a little over a year and a half, and the other resource worked with us for about seven weeks.

How did you come to work with SPD Group?

We were referred to them. Once we got into contact with them, we were confident they were a good fit. 

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from September 2019–September 2020.

**RESULTS & FEEDBACK**
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

We were pleased with SPD Group’s services, especially considering they provided us with junior level developers who we trained internally. They were able to understand very well the requirements of our project. They also had great communication skills in the sense that they weren’t afraid to ask for questions when they didn’t understand something. 

How did SPD Group perform from a project management standpoint?

Project management was one area that we could’ve seen improvement in. At the beginning of the engagement, SPD Group promised to have project managers from their site, but it didn’t end up happening, so we ended up having to handle project management on our own.

That being said, they really emphasized communication throughout the project.

What did you find most impressive about them?

I’m impressed with their ability to find resources for us. It was a very professional experience. Even before they brought the resources to us, SPD group gave technical and behavioral interviews to make sure they were of the right quality. Overall, the people who worked with us were very professional and knew what they were doing.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Like I mentioned, the project management side could be improved. They could also provide some behavioral training to help teach the developers how to communicate with the clients. That would be very helpful for them down the road. 

Other than that, they’re a great company, and we were very happy.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Go ahead and schedule a meeting with them. SPD Group is very easy to communicate with, all the way up to upper management.

**Feedback Summary**: Thanks to SPD Group's expertise, the partnership has been pleasant. The team is able to take ownership of the requirements, and their experience with R&D makes them a valuable partner.
""They have a good R&D mindset."
"

**BACKGROUND**
Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the founder of Livescience, a lab iOS solutions company.

**OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE**
What challenge were you trying to address with SPD Group?

During a business trip to Ukraine a year ago, I was looking for a company to develop middleware software for us. Our startup is developing an industrial IoT solution to help laboratories be free from the mandatory, tedious documentation effort with the help of our RFID sensors. 

60% of our effort goes into developing the startup and the other half is our own natural financing by individual software products which we also have SPD Group as the preferred supplier.

**SOLUTION**
What was the scope of their involvement?

SPD Group helps with programming Java applications. They also do technical consulting regarding the architecture of the middleware like where we put what function but mostly the rear development. 

They also have a bit of an average degree of bringing their ideas as well. For one application, they used C#, and they also do front- and backend development, doing the full stack of the solution. The team first had to interface with our ID hardware. 

They did the data collection, reformatting, and stored the data in databases. They also developed a frontend that accesses the data. For the RFID readers, I didn’t want them to have to read all of the documentation. 

I provided some sample code of what we had done with previous partners to ensure a better start. SPD Group mostly developed from scratch and didn’t just do modifications to the elements I brought.

What is the team composition?

I only work with the R&D team where there are three individuals.

How did you come to work with SPD Group?

I was looking for a company in Ukraine because I wanted a nearshore company. I wanted us to be able to work together. With COVID-19, this changed a bit.

My partner and I took a business trip, compared seven companies, and had on-site visits regarding their expertise, working style, and prices. SPD Group turned out to be fast in understanding what we wanted.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent about €10,000 (approximately $11,900 USD).

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in October 2019, and our engagement is ongoing.

**RESULTS & FEEDBACK**
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

I’m quite happy with them because they have a good R&D mindset. SPD Group has a team that is really used to doing these types of innovation projects. We have two internal developers who are mainly doing the specifications. 

We have a shared repository and see all of their comments directly. Additionally, the efforts they log and bill to us seem justified. That’s what we regard as success.

How did SPD Group perform from a project management standpoint?

We interact directly with the developers because we’re quite technology-focused, but we do the project management.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They’re the only company I found that had an R&D team.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Some users may wonder if it’s possible to put 10,000 database entries or if it will crash from the load. They could give the information upfront of what the specifications and restrictions are. If we'd required them to include this, they would've done it.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

You can challenge SPD Group. They have good ideas. You don’t have to throw the specifications over the fence; you can collaborate by telling them the functions and what the user gets from the system, and the team will provide a larger portion of the value chain by taking the requirements on their own.

- Project size: $50,000 to $199,999

**Review Rating**: 5.0
- Quality: 4.5

**The Reviewer**
Founder & CEO, Home Hub
- Industry: Other industries

- Client size: 1-10 Employees
- Review Type: Phone Interview
- Verified

**The Review** — May 6, 2020

**Feedback Summary**: The team at SPD Group exceeds expectations. Their professional communication style makes them stand out. They're a skilled group of detail-oriented workers. Customers can expect a team that provides helpful suggestions to better their clients. 
""They’re efficient engineers."
"

**BACKGROUND**
Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO and founder of Home Hub, a mobile platform that helps homeowners better manage the preventative maintenance of their homes. This results in extending life to their appliances, reducing their energy costs, and avoiding other major losses.

**OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE**
What challenge were you trying to address SPD Group?

I hired SPD Group to pick up production development of the entire platform of Home Hub. Another firm built the MVP, but the other firm lacked some of the professionalism I was looking for.

**SOLUTION**
What was the scope of their involvement?

SPD Group redeveloped the whole infrastructure, building the Android app and improving the iOS app. There was also some web development work and help with our backend database system.

Within the app, there’s embedded camera functionality in the app that identifies the appliance and its model and serial numbers. After that, it gets married to our database of manuals and database of preventative maintenance suggestions. Our database system is built on a cloud-based platform.

What is the team composition?

We have a project manager, two backend engineers, an iOS engineer, an Android engineer, two QA testers, a frontend web engineer, and a DevOps lead.

How did you come to work with SPD Group?

They came highly recommended by the CEO of the company I previously worked at. At that company, I had a few interactions with members of their team.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve invested $150,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We officially engaged with them in November 2019 but began conversations that August.

**RESULTS & FEEDBACK**
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Their communication is incredibly professional. We regularly discuss how we’re building against our primary goal and projections. I always feel like SPD Group is making more progress than I expect. They’re efficient engineers.

How did SPD Group perform from a project management standpoint?

Our project manager Timur (Deputy General Manager) is very communicative and precise. He gets very detailed responses with data to back up his points and suggestions. Every week, we have meetings where we go over the progress they’ve made and if there were any delays or roadblocks. Their documentation is also great.

What did you find most impressive about them?

The professionalism. Not only do they do great work, communicate really well, and document incredibly well, they have internal peer reviews to look over work across teams. This process validates their work. It’s an incredibly professional organization opposed to others I’ve worked with.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I can’t come up with anything right now.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Make sure that you’re clear in what you want. The limiting factor working with SPD Group is the client’s own clarity within their communication.

#### Web & App Development for B2C Financial Planning Company
**The Project**
- Services: Custom Software Development
- Project size: $1,000,000 to $9,999,999
- Project length: Oct. 2010 - Ongoing

**Project Summary**: SPD-Ukraine handles software as well as mobile and web app development efforts for a financial planning company. They're experienced in multiple front- and backend frameworks and programs.


**Review Rating**: 5.0
- Quality: 4.5
- Schedule: 5.0
- Cost: 4.5
- Willing to Refer: 5.0

**The Reviewer**
Co-Founder & CEO, Life Dreams Inc.
- Industry: Other industries

- Client size: 1-10 Employees
- Review Type: Phone Interview
- Verified

**The Review** — Apr 2, 2020

**Feedback Summary**: SPD-Ukraine has done a great job of maintaining the lifeblood of their codes. They're transparent with prices and deliver within budget. Their dedicated team acts as an extension of the partner's company. Responsibility and a committed long-term partnership are two hallmarks of their work.
"“What’s unique about SPD-Ukraine is that they use dedicated teams.”
"

**BACKGROUND**
Introduce your business and what you do there.

We’re a B2C financial services software development firm. We have two products we offer directly to consumers and a product we offer through enterprises. These enterprises offer our solutions directly to their employees. The products all relate to financial planning or wellness. I’m the co-owner of the company, and there’s about 12–15 of us.

**OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE**
What challenge were you trying to address with SPD-Ukraine?

We hired them to handle all of our software development solutions. They’re a figurative arm of our company.

**SOLUTION**
What was the scope of their involvement?

SPD-Ukraine is responsible for our software, web, and mobile application development. They handle all of our backend work, whether it’s application infrastructure or full-blown backend development. We’ve used multiple technologies over the years. Currently, for frontend we use React, GraphQL, TypeScript, JavaScript, and D3.js for graphs and charts. In the past, we’ve used React Native, Angular.js, and Foundation, which is a VR framework.

For backend development, we currently use the Kotlin and Spring frameworks. However in the past, we’ve used Java running on Spring as well as Node.js. In terms of our database, we’re currently on PostgreSQL and Juke, having used MySQL in the past. Infrastructure-wise, we’re now on Kubernetes, Terraform, and Google Cloud. Previously, we used Docker extensively as well as AWS and Ansible.

SPD-Ukraine has completed native development through React Native on both iOS and Android. Our latest app is a progressive web application. It runs on iOS and Android through a web browser and is being built on React, GraphQL, TypeScript, and JavaScript. We also built a full-on web application using React.

What is the team composition?

It has varied over the years. We started with a single dedicated developer and now have a team of six people. This includes a full-time technical project manager and QA as well as two full-stack developers and a front- and backend developer.

When there’s a heavy workload on the infrastructure, SPD-Ukraine has provided experts on Kubernetes and Terraform. These individuals come in and help with the specific project, but we don’t keep them on our team. Essentially, we just borrow them from other teams. For example, for our AR work, we pulled in experts for the core frameworks. After they completed the development, we did the integration and handed it over to the rest of the team.

How did you come to work with SPD-Ukraine?

We heard about them through another startup here in Seattle. Also, my CTO worked with SPD-Ukraine at an old company. When we started our company, it was easy to select them to help us build our startup.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve invested around $1.2 million so far.

What is the status of this engagement?

Our ongoing partnership began in October 2010.

**RESULTS & FEEDBACK**
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Our CTO is responsible for the development team and deliverables. We measure quality based on team efficiency and if a solution needs redoing or rebuilding. These benchmarks are critical because we don’t have resources to build solutions multiple times.

Over the course of ten years, SPD-Ukraine has built three different iterations of the applications through progressively different stacks. What matters is how long these iterations last. The life of the code has been consistently lasting about 3–4, maybe five, years. Most codes have a lifespan of 2–3 years. Based on that, SPD-Ukraine is doing great in terms of maintaining that code and keeping it alive.

How did SPD-Ukraine perform from a project management standpoint?

They’ve done well, and we use Clubhouse for managing the work. SPD-Ukraine provides visibility into their price estimates. I always know where I stand with them. I know how much something will cost and that it’ll get completed for that exact amount.

What did you find most impressive about them?

We’ve enjoyed working with them. In the past, our company has used different developers. What’s unique about SPD-Ukraine is that they use dedicated teams. They’re an extension of our startup, without being actual employees of ours. We manage and maintain their full team and are responsible for keeping them busy. Then, their project manager is responsible for ensuring we don’t go overboard with requests. This is not a typical outsourcing relationship.

Are there any areas they could improve?

The challenge, and what we spend more time working on, is the process of preparing and writing requirements. The level of requirement, its specificity, and the iteration plans are all things we consider. This is a detail that SPD-Ukraine is very flexible about.

It can be good for some people if they already have a great process. However, if they don’t have a set process or existing team, they’d have to integrate it with SPD-Ukraine’s. It’d be nice for the SPD-Ukraine team to bring a stronger point of view.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

SPD-Ukraine is not a firm to work with if you have a one-time project; that’s not their forte. Collaborate with SPD-Ukraine if you’re planning for the long term and have the full intention to keep them as your outsourced development team.
