the review
The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
We are a producer of control and measurement devices and the Receptor 2.0 production execution system intended for food producers. We currently have over 150 customers in 6 countries.
For what projects/services did your company hire SPEEDNET?
The system is developed on the basis of market needs, which requires high flexibility in operation and frequent changes in the direction of development. SpeedNet is great at understanding our on-the-fly requirements.
What were your goals for this project?
After years of development, the system was heavy and not very stable. The big challenge was to organize the entire system and correct the errors accumulated over the years. Currently, the system has gained much greater stability and thanks to the ordering of the code, further development works are possible
How did you select this vendor?
Speed Net has a large base of specialists who are not afraid of challenges and are ready to implement difficult projects such as ours. The decision to cooperate with SpeedNet was made due to their professional approach to our project and selecting the right people for its implementation. An additional advantage is also the great flexibility in the way you work. Thanks to the fact that programmers stay in our office and are very close to the project, the efficiency of their work is at a satisfactory level.
Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.
SpeedNet is currently the third team that deals with our project, which is particularly difficult because the project has poor documentation and the code itself is very complicated and very often not readable. Code analysis is performed quickly and efficiently, which allows you to correct errors and enable the development of functionality in the expected direction. SpeedNet is also committed to understanding the needs of our clients, which means that the results of the work are at the expected level.
What was the team composition?
Currently, one person is assigned to the project who writes the code and works directly with us to understand the system and the needs of our clients. SpeedNet has a large base of specialists, which enables ongoing consultations with specialists at times when we encounter problems that require knowledge or competence beyond the skills of our programmer. We can expand the team with new specialists at any time.
Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?
Before starting cooperation with SpeedNet, most of our time was occupied by the daily service of the reported problems and errors, which effectively blocked our further development. Today the situation is so stabilized that we can achieve our development goals and at the same time maintain the level of service at a high level.
How was project management arranged and how effective was it?
A professional and effective problem analysis is always carried out, and then the assigned tasks are carried out reliably and on time. Communication is via slack and the entire project is handled by jira and github
What did you find most impressive about this company?
They are ready to achieve difficult goals and have extensive experience and a great team.
Are there any areas for improvement?
no

I did not personally selected: we were already working with Speednet when I joined and the quality of the work and professionalism were always spot on, with a balanced commercial offer.
Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.
They act as team members, so they participate actively in our discovery, grooming, planning, development and retrospective rounds. On a continuous base, Speednet's team have had different responsibilities, but presently they are assuming significant ownership of an important legacy system and maitaining it and evolving it to a Go solution.
What was the team composition?
Currently - one back-end emgineer In the past - a mix of back end and front end (mobile and web) engineers (1 to 3 at a time)
Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?
It is core to our business.
How was project management arranged and how effective was it?
Quite simple to deal with, it is now a totally smooth operation.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
Their consistency and clarity stand out to us- they do not accept what they cannot do and they deliver what they commit to.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Not particularly - our set-up is small and very people dependent. From the people we worked with, nothing to add.

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 product owner and project manager of Ringier Axel Springer Polska, an authentication platform.
What challenge were you trying to address with SPEEDNET?
We needed someone to help with our frontend development.
What was the scope of their involvement?
They’re mainly responsible for the frontend development of the project. They’re also deploying their work and working on maintenance. In the last few months, they prepared a new frontend side of our project written in React.
What is the team composition?
I work with the developers on a daily basis. I’m also in contact with the CTO and other managers.
How did you come to work with SPEEDNET?

We spend over $25,000/month.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working together in April 2014, and the work is ongoing.

They always deliver on time. They’re highly dedicated to the details and always eager to find a solution. Their solutions are top-notch in every manner.

What did you find most impressive about them?
They’re highly responsive to the changes in our products and priorities. If we have a need to get additional people to do something in order to deliver on time, they always were responsible and able to give us what we needed.
Are there any areas they could improve?
They could have better managers. I work with the developers on a daily basis, but having a main contact person such as an account or project manager would be nice.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Prepare what you need and expect from them. Be straightforward with them about it. Give them a chance to prepare the right setup of people to accomplish the tasks.

Two teams consisting of 2 developers each working on iOS and Android applications. The team size in the final stage of the development were cut down to 2 people with most experience to finish the project. We still work on new features and work on improving the applications with Speednet.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
We have working mobile application that are rated very high and help us bring more customers to use our company that were reluctant cause of lack of mobile application. Our application is still in a growth phase, but we see that the process of switching users from web to mobile takes faster that we anticipated and we see that a good and bug-free application helps with that.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
We used Jira and Confluence tool provided by SpeedNet. Response and communication was very quick and efficient. Furthermore we had meetings f2f some time thanks to the location of SpeedNet and our company

They aren't excessively formal and are very flexible as to resources and reaction time if we needed something. People over process.
Are there any areas for improvement?
I suppose there is always an area for improvement and I just have this mindset. But the cooperation was very smooth and both sides work on improving communication and efficiency together.

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 am the CTO of an online brokerage.
What challenge were you trying to address with SPEEDNET?
We had a big project, we had architects, but we didn’t have enough software developers who could do this fast for us. We didn’t have the time for the recruitment process so we started to look for a company like SPEEDNET that could provide us with software developers and other specialists.
What was the scope of their involvement?
They prepared the system according to the guidelines of our architects. We worked with .NET core, Java, Angular developers. We also had DevOps engineer who helped us to create CI/CD (Continuous Integration/ Continuous Delivery). The project is up and running, and it was developed from scratch in six months.
What is the team composition?
We started with 15 people from their team, but we started to replace SPEEDNET people with our people, which we had planned to do. Now, we only work with 1–2 frontend developers from their team.
How did you come to work with SPEEDNET?
SPEEDNET was cooperating with us before I became CTO. My colleague started working with them prior. They were the best solution because they won Call for Tenders.
How much have you invested in them?

Are there any areas they could improve?
There is always something you can improve on, but I don’t have anything in mind specifically.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
No, our work together has been really smooth.

Android & iPhone App Dev Services for App Startup
"SPEEDNET has been a pleasure to work with and their performance has been ideal for what we need."
the reviewer
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 CEO and co-owner of an app startup.
What challenge were you trying to address with SPEEDNET?
We needed assistance in the development of our apps for Android and iOS.
What was the scope of their involvement?
We have an inhouse team who handled the design and back-end development of the apps themselves. When SPEEDNET came onboard, we provided them with our designs and specs, and they’ve been developing the front end on React Native based on those materials.
What is the team composition?
We’ve worked with about seven or eight members of SPEEDNET, but the core team is composed of about four people.
How did you come to work with SPEEDNET?
SPEEDNET was referred by a former colleague of mine who’d worked with them in the past and been pleased with the experience.
What is the status of this engagement?
We began the project in August 2019, and the project is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We’ve been tightly managing the project in terms of schedule and quality, and so far the team has hit every benchmark. Though we’re still developing, we’re happy with what they’ve produced at this point and the quality of their work is very strong.
Since SPEEDNET is an offshore provider, we only have a few hours of overlap each day with the time difference. However, we’ve never had any issues come up as a result, as the team has done a great job managing that window of time.
How did SPEEDNET perform from a project management standpoint?
The team has performed very well. We have a strong project manager on our side who’s taken the lead on the project, but every component SPEEDNET has been involved in has met our expectations.
What did you find most impressive about them?
SPEEDNET has been a pleasure to work with and their performance has been ideal for what we need. The team is transparent, efficient, and communicative.
Are there any areas they could improve?
As far as we’re concerned, there’s nothing they could improve.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Having a clearly communicated plan and idea of your goals in advance will be helpful.

the reviewer
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 a project manager in the financial services sector. I’ve been involved in our mobile finance efforts.
What challenge were you trying to address with SPEEDNET?
We hired SPEEDNET to develop an application for us.
What was the scope of their involvement?
SPEEDNET is developing an app for iOS and Android. The app is for our private customers; they can access all of our financial services through a mobile device.
What is the team composition?
More than ten people from SPEEDNET are involved, including a project manager, analyst, tech leads, and DevOps testers. We get the whole package from them.
How did you come to work with SPEEDNET?
They were already on board when I joined this project.
How much have you invested in them?
We have spent more than $1 million.
What is the status of this engagement?
I began working with them in 2017, and the work is ongoing.

The quality of the app has been our main focus. We validate the app’s performance and also do our own testing. Everything has worked out really well.
How did SPEEDNET perform from a project management standpoint?
Everything has gone smoothly, and it has been a really good cooperation. We have never had a problem when it has comes to scheduling. They keep their promises.
What did you find most impressive about them?
It is easy to work with SPEEDNET. Communication is effortless, even though we don’t share the same language; their English language skills are very good. They deliver really high quality, and they know what they’re doing.
Are there any areas they could improve?
From a customer’s perspective, sometimes we need to have discussions about the solutions they are offering and certain ways of doing things. Challenging the customer is also a good thing because the way we think isn’t always the best way, and we always try to find a solution. It is really nice that they give us a lot of options.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
I would hire them.

Web & Mobile Development for Home Services Startup
“They house many disciplines under the same roof.”
the reviewer
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 founder of a startup that addresses efficiency in organized home services. For instance, the platform can route a community gardener to houses more intelligently to deliver a more predictable, cost-effective service.
What challenge were you trying to address with SPEEDNET?
To achieve our goal, we needed to write a backend algorithm. It was important for us to find a partner who could build that and a visual interface, so a scheduler could see what was happening
What was the scope of their involvement?
They worked in four different capacities: Android, iOS, web frontend, and backend development. The frontend was created using Angular.js. Their team was also in charge of running QA tests to ensure their deliverables function correctly.
What is the team composition?
We started off with just a few team members, but that grew to about 10. The majority of them were developers for different tech stacks.
How much have you invested with them?
We spent $600,000–$700,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We worked with them from 2017–2018.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Daily, we reviewed the functionality of the features as well as the integrity of the code. We were always impressed with their work.
How did SPEEDNET perform from a project management standpoint?
We work together every day through Slack. The project manager handled the project well, delegating work to a UX designer, engineers, and two QA resources.
What did you find most impressive about them?
SPEEDNET isn’t a team of newbies. They each have deep, specialized experience that aided them in handling a fairly complex product. Additionally, their breadth of abilities was impressive. They house many disciplines under the same roof. As I said, we had iOS, Android, QA, and other development work being handled simultaneously.
Are there any areas they could improve?
Nothing comes to mind. They were fairly priced, and the quality was great, so I have no reservations.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
They have command over several different programming languages. As a dev shop, they’re high-quality and predictable, which is really what we care about. They’re senior, experienced developers, too. You don’t have much to lose by hiring them.

IT Services & Web Dev for Science Education Supplier
"Everyone—from the project manager to the developers to the business analysts—cares about the work they do."
the reviewer
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 director of online systems for Carolina Biological Supply Company. We supply anything a science lab in the educational space might need.
What challenge were you trying to address with SPEEDNET?
We offer an e-learning platform that was built by an offshore company that went out of business. We brought on SPEEDNET to take technical ownership of the platform, hosting it for us and building out more features as needed.
What was the scope of their involvement?
With SPEEDNET’s help, we’ve completed revamped our e-learning application. SPEEDNET worked with us to update the UI/UX, restructure our content, and create new methodologies to house our content. Now our users—mainly teachers—have a lower barrier of entry to learn our platform and access our content.
We’ve also used some of SPEEDNET’s DevOps and server administrator roles to change our host server from a Canadian facility to one based in the US. That project came in on time and under budget.
What is the team composition?
Our team grew as large as 17 people to make sure our revamp project finished within our budget and timeline. We now work with five full-time employees, including a project manager and software delivery manager. That number grows and shrinks depending on our project requirements.
How did you come to work with SPEEDNET?
Our previous vendor, that first developed our platform and had gone out of business, recommended SPEEDNET to us as a partner. They had planned on selling the application as a licensed product to other education companies, but they instead transferred ownership to SPEEDNET so that their team could further the platform for our purposes. SPEEDNET also hired employees from the prior vendor to continue that quality of service.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve spent around $1.3 million–$1.5 million.
What is the status of this engagement?
We've been working together since the transition happened officially in the summer of 2017.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Much of the work we do on our platform is based on our sales contracts. They dictate our project requirements and timelines. We judge SPEEDNET’s performance on their ability to meet our hard deadlines; so far, they have met every launch date without sacrificing quality in each deliverable.
How did SPEEDNET perform from a project management standpoint?
SPEEDNET can quickly scale the size of our team to accommodate our project requirements and budget. We communicate with the project manager to get a feel for the roadmap and resources we need to complete a project. That may involve hiring new talent or rolling someone off another project to join ours.
Our project manager and software delivery manager are the same for every project, and we’ve had a fantastic experience work with them. They work hand-in-hand to coordinate the delivery schedule and to ensure that the team is staffed appropriately and meeting our deadlines. Whenever we give them a large project, they break down the requirements into granular tasks. As a result, SPEEDNET always meets their timeline estimates.
We’ve met a few times with SPEEDNET’s team to work together and problem-solve in person. We also work together quite a bit through desktop sharing and video conferencing tools. Over our two years of working together, we haven’t had any hiccups or miscommunication.
What did you find most impressive about them?
In my opinion, the quality of people that SPEEDNET finds sets them apart from other vendors. Everyone—from the project manager to the developers to the business analysts—cares about the work they do. They come to the table with excellent ideas to solve our problems. They’ve never said no to any of our requests. SPEEDNET is genuinely dedicated to delivering to the client.
Are there any areas they could improve?
The SPEEDNET team is full of perfectionists. They’re invested in finding the best way to solve a challenge, but sometimes that doesn’t fit into our timeline or budget, and we have to readjust their expectations. They have the best intentions, though.
Any advice for potential customers?
Treat SPEEDNET like a partner instead of a vendor. If you're honest with them about what you truly need and expect, they will tell you whether they can deliver
SpeedNet has stabilized the product to the point that the producer's team no longer needs to spend their days responding to errors. Their experienced team provided professional and effective problem-solving and analysis, as well as exceeding expectations in communication.
