techbees.io

Please describe your company and your position there.

Our company is one of the provinces of the Order of Friars Minor Conventual. I am responsible for handling all social media and websites for the Province.

For what projects/services did your company hire techbees.io, and what were your goals?

We hired the techbess.io company to create a completely new website for our province (franciszkanie.pl) and integrated websites for the convents of our province.

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

We were looking for a proven company, i.e. one with which one of our friends had already cooperated and was satisfied with the effects of cooperation. In addition, it was influenced by the company's headquarters, which is within the range of our office (although it turned out to be irrelevant, as everything was done online). Another important thing was the approach to the client, very kind and open (also at the next stages). The last thing that mattered was the adequacy of the price to the project. We had several cost estimations from other companies before signing the contract and techbess.io's offer seemed suitable.

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

At the very beginning, there was a detailed discussion about the entire project, based on a project of our website made earlier. We talked until everything was clear and understandable. After these meetings, we received the pricing to which we agreed. Then we prepared a contract, which we finally managed to sign. Then we set the order of work on our website. The company proposed an Agile working method. At the end of the month we received detailed reports on the work done and information about plans for the next month.

During the work, we met to talk about current doubts. The company showed great flexibility when it comes to small changes in the project that appeared on our part during the implementation of services. As for technology, we were offered Elementor, which made it very easy for us to create subpages. When it comes to integrating the homepage with the convents' websites (there are several of them), we were offered MultiSite technology, which seems to be the best solution. It made it much easier for us.

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

In the beginning, two or even three people worked with me (especially at the stage of discussing the project). Later, one person, which was a big help for me, as I knew who to contact in every case.

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

I must say that all our intentions have been achieved in terms of usability and functionality. The site looks very good (this is the feedback) and works flawlessly. As of today, we are still at the stage of creating convents' websites. Our website is an important part of the whole business, because it allows us to organize and integrate finally all the activities of the province

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

The form of communication we used were e-mails and online meetings. As far as the schedule is concerned, everything went as planned. We launched our website on time.

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

techbees.io managed to do everything we set out to do. I mean mainly a rather unusual way of entering data and customizing the panel for users. I am also thinking about all places where the flow of information between the home page and the websites of convents is possible. In addition, I think about the speed of reaction to errors and corrections that appeared (mainly at the programming stage).

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

It's hard for me to say due to my limited experience of creating similar projects. Everything seemed fine.

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am CEO and chief designer of TTMM company in Warsaw Poland.

For what projects/services did your company hire techbees.io, and what were your goals?

We wanted to release an app for the Android platform that would be similar to the interface of the award-winning iOS app.

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

I have been working with people from TECHBEES for years on watch applications for the Fitbit and Android platforms. I was satisfied with the quality of the results and the good understanding of the project.

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

I have uploaded detailed documentation and graphical components in Sketch and a working iOS app. We worked with previously developed methods of project iteration, testing the functionality of the application at every stage of the project.

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

We worked remotely in a small team - designer and developer. Thanks to this, the project went quickly and all ambiguities and improvements were discussed on an ad hoc basis.

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

This was our first large implementation on Android and we did not avoid mistakes regarding the size of the application related to the use of very high resolution graphics. The next iteration will improve this state.

Overall, I am very pleased with the result and the quality of the work done, although it did not translate into commercial success. The reason for failure is that the wrong business model. Watch applications have received the most important design awards (iF Design adn Red Dot) and are very expensive and are not for the wallet of a typical recipient.

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

TTMM is an artistic and culture-forming project and we do not impose deadlines on ourselves for the sake of the quality of work. We want the final effect to please us and our partners (TECHBEES) to perform it comfortably. We conducted the project through a series of video meetings and ongoing exchanges via the Slack communicator.

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

Relationships and a bond based on trust and mutual respect for competences and skills. Thanks to this, TECHBEES agreed to support the TTMM project, which did not bring great PR and financial benefits. I am very grateful for their support.

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

I wish they had more time to work with TTMM but because they are good they are sought after.

The scope of work was very wide - we cooperated on many projects with different criteria of operation. Depending on the project, together with techbees.io, we selected the appropriate work system.
