BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the product manager at an online autograph signing company. 

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with SubcoDevs Inc?

Our system was hardcoded and made for a specific purpose — it wasn’t scalable. We hired SubcoDevs to develop a more scalable system for when we split into different verticals in the future. 

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Initially, we had to transfer all knowledge bases from the previous developers to the engineering team at SubcoDevs. Then, they addressed all the projects and tasks we had.

At present, they continue to provide development services for us. They offer guidance on how the system can be structured and how we can create scalable code so that we can continue to grow and utilize the system to its full potential.

In terms of technologies, we’ve primarily been using React on the frontend. We’ve also been working a lot on AWS.  

What is the team composition?

I’m in contact with at least six people from SubcoDevs. 

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in December 2021, and the engagement is ongoing. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

My team and I have been content and satisfied with the services that SubcoDevs has provided. They have great team management, and we’ve seen few bugs in the features they’ve developed. Moreover, whenever we provide feedback to their work, they’re always more than willing to be helpful. 

How did SubcoDevs Inc perform from a project management standpoint?

They’ve been pretty accurate with everything, so I have no big complaints. Sometimes, we have to alter the scope of the project, but there’s been no pushback from them. The SubcoDevs team has been truly accommodating toward us, and we’re always able to achieve great results. To organize our tasks, we primarily use Slack and ClickUp. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

SubcoDevs operates extremely well as a team. They ensure that they not only deliver great features but also take care of the team, making sure that everybody works together properly. This has helped our productivity and efficiency.

No, there aren’t any. They’re doing great, and I don’t have any complaints.
