A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I am the co-founder and CPO of a football fan engagement app. The app features football Premier League-related games for UK-based football fans. The idea is to enhance users’ fan experience by playing football-based games and winning rewards.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Talentica Software?
Since we’re an early-stage startup, we needed a company that could help us develop a high-quality mobile application from scratch.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
We hired Talentica Software to develop our football fan engagement app for iOS and Android. We worked with another service provider to conceptualize the app's design and functionality, and Talentica Software is responsible for the technical development part of the project. Once we finalized the app’s concept and design, Talentica Software started putting the app together and building the technology end-to-end. They used React Native to build the frontend and Node.js for the backend. They’re currently working on maintaining the app and developing and implementing new features as needed.
What is the team composition?
We’ve worked with 7–10 people from Talentica Software, including a technology manager, a DevOps person, a development lead, three backend engineers, two frontend engineers, and a QA engineer.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve spent more than $150,000 on this project so far.
How did you come to work with Talentica Software?
I briefly worked with them around 6–7 years ago at another company where I used to work.
What is the status of this engagement?
We began working with them in January 2024, and we’re still working with them. The app was built and released to the market by April 2024, but we’re still working with them to maintain the app and continue developing new features.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Talentica Software has successfully delivered a high-quality app within a reasonable timeline, which was the main goal of this engagement.
How did the company perform from a project management standpoint?
Talentica Software has performed very well in terms of project management, especially compared to other service providers I worked with in the past. The timeline for the app’s delivery was quite tight — we told Talentica Software that we needed the app by the end of March, but it took them until the end of April to deliver it. However, I don’t believe the project was unreasonably delayed; based on my experience in our industry, it’s quite normal to run into roadblocks or sudden scope changes from time to time. So, considering that, Talentica Software has done well with delivering work and releases on time. All of the leads I’ve worked with have also been incredibly helpful in getting the work done and leading the other people in their team working on this project. They're on our Slack, where we primarily communicate, so they are practically members of our team. We use Google Meet and Microsoft Teams for meetings. All of their team members have also been assigned a Footy email account, which they use to log on to our platform.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I’m very happy with the services Talentica Software has provided. They’re a very reliable company in terms of the quality of their work. They work as part of our team, and they definitely understand their domain very well.
Are there any areas they could improve?
Aside from that, Talentica Software’s services are more expensive than the other service providers in India. They charge the same rate for all their developers per month, regardless of their level of experience. It would be better if they could make it more cost-effective for us by charging less for developers with fewer years of experience.
Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?
They’re definitely on the higher end of the spectrum in terms of pricing, but if you don’t want to worry about the quality of the product being delivered and the initiative being taken by the project leads, then Talentica Software is the best choice for you.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Ability of the tool to point out suggestions that were not currently in our radar

The project took longer than we expected but that is bound to happen in such cases pertaining to data analytics. The team was always willing to adapt to the challenges presented by the project.

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the director of QC and production at a software development company.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Talentica Software?
We hired Talentica to help us with our QA automation.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Talentica provides us with a solution to automate our testing efforts, which take a month to finish manually. They provide us with tools to automate that process. Apart from that, they’ve provided us with two resources who’ve written automation scripts to help us automate faster.
What is the team composition?
We’ve worked with four teammates from Talentica. All of them are QA automation engineers. I also work with Abhishek (Software Engineer).
How did you come to work with Talentica Software?
One member of our product team was already working with Talentica. That person recommended the team to me.
How much have you invested with them?
We spend around $20,000 per month.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working together in January 2021, and the engagement is ongoing.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Talentica has internal testing metrics that they update regularly. With their help, we’ve reduced the long hours we spend on manual testing. The team has great skills and knowledge in terms of creating a script that tackles our product. This isn’t easy because the product is a complex web app — it works on three different machines. As such, there are many environmental and scripting challenges to consider. The Talentica team has done well in this respect.
How did Talentica Software perform from a project management standpoint?
Since our teams are in different time zones, Talentica usually takes care of tasks at night and completes them in the mornings. Abhishek has done a wonderful job in this area; he accomplishes tasks — ones that usually take five days to complete — within two days.
Their team has also been effective in resolving production issues. A few of their resources truly stand out and are proactive. Overall, their project management has been wonderful. The manager makes sure the team is on track. In terms of tools, we use Jira to manage the project. To communicate, we use emails, Skype, and Teams. We also have testing tools.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I’m impressed with their eagerness and positive attitude when it comes to helping us. Additionally, they're highly open-minded.
Are there any areas they could improve?
We’ve had some timeline hiccups when their resources leave. Having available resources quickly is challenging.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Define procedures and protocols.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
The team was composed entirely of Talentica contractors for some number of years. I began managing the team in January of 2022. The team managed the admin tooling backend, which consisted of multiple Python Flask services with Postgres and Elasticsearch storage. These services composed a service-oriented architecture, running on Kubernetes, using an Istio service mesh and deployed using Spinnaker.
The team was also responsible for working with the Jenkins based CI/CD pipeline. During the last year and a half, the team took on additional responsibilities such as the GDPR request processing tooling and other additional legacy product features. The team's technical work consisted of clearing technical debt, rearchitecting services where needed. They responded to bugs seen by users, and requirements from our security team.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The team did a excellent job maintaining a number of services, so much so that they have been offered full time positions and we plan to grow the team and give them further responsibilities.
What was your primary form of communication with Talentica Software?
Virtual Meeting
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
They managed their projects relatively on time. No more delays than tends to be seen with software development. Coordination was not always trivial given the large timezone difference between IST and US Pacific time, but they were responsible and dedicated, learning and adapting well in the time that I worked with them.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
Talentica was the first contracting company that I have worked with as a manager, and the first one that I worked with for such a long time. I was impressed with the commitment from the employees on the team, and the regular checkins I got from Talentica managers. It was a great working relationship, and that is why we chose to hire them on as full time employees.
Are there any areas for improvement or something Talentica Software could have done differently?
The biggest issue was distance and timezone, which led to some inconvenience with communication and fully connecting them and sharing learnings with the teams in the Americas.

BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
I'm the CTO of a startup focused in the Regulatory Technology space.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Talentica Software, and what were your goals?
Talentica was originally engaged to build out a proof-of-concept and of a RegTech automation platform used by government regulators. They were engaged before I joined the company.
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
Talentica came on with a full service project team including, design, frontend, backend, qa, and devops team members.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
They built out the initial version of our platform working closely with our internal stakeholders and customer discovery partner to design and deliver the solution.
The solution was built with React on the frontend, Java Springboot middleware, Postgres on the backend, and leveraged Camunda as a BPM solution to power the workflows.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
We grew our engagement with Talentica adding developers, software engineering management, and QA resources to support our efforts.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
When I started there were definitely some challenges, much of this was on us as an organization however, not having clear requirements or understanding of what we needed to build to.
Once I started, I worked closely with the Talentica team to address the issues which were holding us back. Together we launched the initial public version of our product in 2022 and have continued working to build on it ever since.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
Overall the Development, QA, and Engineering/Project management teams have been excellent!
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
They did an excellent job working with me to adapt processes and deliverables to establish an effective working relationship with the new engineering leadership.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
Where I would provide specific feedback to improve is for them to stop operating their DevOps/CloudOps resources as a separate team outside of the project team. Their DevOps practice definitely need to be better integrated with their project teams and overall matured as a part of their organization.

Please describe your company and your position there.
Roostify provides a digital home lending platform that transforms the traditional, time-consuming mortgage process into a streamlined, modern experience for borrowers and lenders alike. I am the Director of Production Operations.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Talentica Software, and what were your goals?
We needed to augment our Engineering team so that we could deliver on products and features in our Roadmap
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
I was not a part of the selection process. However, I believe part of the deciding factor was the fact that Talentica could spin up Ruby on Rails engineers quicker than if we were to hire onshore.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
The scope of work entailed augmenting our Engineering team which was broken down into different product verticals. Each product vertical is responsible for a specific component of the Roostify platform. Each team had their own roadmaps and projects/features to work on. Ruby on Rails was the technology used earlier on, then we also started using Java. Each team had offshore developers and qa engineers. We also have offshore devops engineers who could service the offshore engineering team.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
We have a project manager/lead who oversees the entire engagement. I specifically interface with the 2 QA leads.

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
In general, features/products/bug fixes have been delivered in a timely fashion. Like any Development team, there are going to be bugs that need to be addressed in the process but we have a fairly efficient and repeatable process to address the defects.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
Their style is Agile. Slack is the communication tool of choice which results in timely responses to queries asked overnight. Communication also happens through JIRA.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
How accountable they are for the work. I was impressed by how they all personally felt like they were a part of our company and not just contractors.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
Provide creative solutions to the "follow the sun" model (i.e. If a task was miscommunicated, we have to wait 24 hours to rectify) which is the most challenging facet of any engagement with offshore resources. Provide better overall engagement "health" or status to Engineering leadership

Talentica Software helps a consulting organization develop a new custom product. They build a new structure and software using the company's existing patented scheduling algorithm.
Talentica Software has excellently completed the project within the agreed timeline. Despite the changing requirements, the team has remained calm and reassuring. The client appreciated their transparency about the issues and status of their works, leading to efficient project management.
The client submitted this review online.
BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am sales head for a consulting organization. We are located in India. We are handling a portfolio of more than 3bn dollars of construction projects. Our services include consulting and project management software for the project duration which is around 3-4 years .
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Talentica Software, and what were your goals?
We were using existing scheduling software's and developed our skin on top of it to help. But in case of complex and big projects we found that the existing PM tools are not defined for real world which have resource limitations as all of them work on CPM basis (unlimited resource scenario). SO we had to break through the existing ranks and develop a new logic, which also required development of entirely new software. We hired talentica to develop the product from the algo and dats structure we had defined. It had to be done in quick time so that we don't loose our existing customers
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
The basis of selecting talentica was their approach towards understanding our problem and defining the most optimum strategy, which gave us confidence that it can be done. In all the other cases, we and the software vendors were speaking two different languages and it was very hard to get the requirements through them
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
Major scope was divided into 4 parts:
Understanding our requirement and algo, which was difficult since it was completely new and no reference was available.
Develop a new data structure, use our existing patented scheduling algorithm over it and produce an entirely new software.
All this has to be done without disrupting any existing features as the product was already in use with several clients who are reluctant to change.
Since it was new product, a lot of training manuals and videos were needed along with regular extended support form talentica side, till the handholding of our core support team was complete
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
There were 8 people engaged as core team, 1 Project Manager, 1 QA manager, 4 developers and 2 testing resources. Rest would come and go depending on the need
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
The project was completed within time, and the first launch was done to the customer on the date we promised. It was a big relief. The best part was that although we changed the requirements in between, and panicked that the product wouldn't come through, but talentica always was calm and reassuring in their approach. I like their approach of focusing on finishing what we have started instead of starting everything. Finishing module before compromising the scope and not starting the other module, forced us to think and rethink our requirement, which reduced a lot of re work
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
Their project management was great and since we are also pioneer in the same field, it was done very systematically. Talentica was also open to understand our PM techniques and implement it, which helped both of us. Communication tools were Slack, Jira etc.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
Transparency about the issues and status of their works, everyone was approachable and not only the PM. Early warning so that we can take proactive actions, instead of bringing it up at last moment. I think the time they take to plan the work meticulously was very helpful because it removed a lot of doubts which would have caused rework
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
I think the last part of training manuals and videos were not really great. Although they are working on it, but that is something which can be definitely improved upon

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Talentica Software, and what were your goals?
Goal was to develop a US-based FinTech App (incl. website, iOS App, Android App).
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
Was referred to Talentica by a friend. Independently evaluated them by visiting their office in Pune (India) and meeting their leadership team. Prior to Talentica, we had 2 bad experiences in working with outsourced software development agencies, so knew exactly what we wanted and did not want in a technology partner. Talentica gave us an initial trial period, which allowed us to work with the team on a short 3 month project. We were blown away by the capability and delivery of the team, and decided to onboard them on a multi-year engagement.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
Talentica helped us develop a US-based FinTech application, and related marketing site. We're now working with them on scoping out the iOS and Android App.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
In less than 12 months, the team developed a FinTech application. Our marketing site gets over 50,000 visitors each month. We served over 500 clients, and are growing at a 10% rate month-over-month.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
We used Slack, Zoom, Jira and Github for project management. We setup regular weekly check-ins (twice a week) to discuss functional requirements, and provide feedback on technical build. We designed 2 week sprints, and scheduled planned build items during those sprints.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
Team is extremely professional. They have a high-level of energy and enthusiasm. They are aligned with our mission, and passionate about building a FinTech application. The team was also very communicative, and easy to work with during the project.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
Retention on the team has been a little bit of challenge. With the India tech industry booming, it's been difficult to retain a consistent outsourced / contract-based team, as traditional retention strategies (e.g. offering stock options to employees, or corporate benefits / perks) don't exist. The Talentica leadership team recognizes the challenge, and is has been all ears, and in trying to help find a solution.

BACKGROUND
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the founder of a data security and governance solutions provider in the US.

We were having some challenges with the SaaS product. We needed a company to help us develop custom software, so we brought in Talentica.

The team conducts tests and ensures that everything adheres to industry standards as they continue to enhance our core product’s features. We mainly use Python and AWS.
What is the team composition?
We work with 3–8 people, depending on the scope of work. There are back- and frontend software engineers as well as an architect, a project lead, a QA specialist, an accounts manager, and a DevOps engineer.
