TekRevol

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO and co-founder of Megha. We’re a carrier agnostic, solution-driven IT consultancy firm. We have 150 partnerships with strategic IT carriers, as well as different manufacturers. With every opportunity that we go into, we always try to provide ROIs, whether that’s saving the company money, providing additional added-value to the services they currently offer, or giving them additional support, which many of them lack.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with TekRevol?

We hired TekRevol to help us with a customizable website that matches our culture, vision, and mission.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

TekRevol took our existing website, which was fairly chaotic, and simplified it. Their web design incorporated our logo throughout the website, which was the brand development we were looking for. They added multiple calls to action (CTAs) to the site.

We’re starting a podcast and some other blogs, and they were able to incorporate that — in a very timely manner — to help deliver our company culture. That has provided some additional added-value to our end-users.

All of the other web developers that we talked to recommended certain platforms, such as Squarespace and Wix. However, I believe TekRevol designed our website using their own platform. They used that platform to incorporate our branding, content, and the layout that we wanted. I’m not sure of the exact tools that they used, but they were able to address our needs.

What is the team composition?

We spoke to a salesperson, who was very thoughtful. We let him know what we wanted and didn’t want, and he was honest from the beginning. He explained everything thoroughly and helped us get clarity around what we wanted to get out of the partnership. 

Then, the salesperson handed the project over to Sam (System Architect), who has multiple levels of expertise. He acted as a project manager and web developer. He took down all of our questions and concerns, which I believe he then passed onto web development and UI/UX teams. It was great to just have two points of contact; we didn’t have to address our concerns to anyone else. Those contacts managed everything.

How did you come to work with TekRevol?

We chose TekRevol because they were within budget of what we wanted. A lot of other companies were also within budget, but they provided services for non-customizable platforms.

Additionally,TekRevol was able to deliver. They addressed our questions, concerns, budget, and planning. Everything was in writing, so that built trust.  

How much have you invested with them?

My company has spent about $3,500–$5,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We began working together in late January or early February of 2020. Due to COVID, we put everything on pause; we needed to focus on retention and helping our existing customers. TekRevol didn’t push us to complete the project, which was very nice.

We haven’t completed the website yet. My team needs to make a couple of minor tweaks, but once we get it over to TekRevol, it will go live. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

TekRevol is very flexible. If you have an idea in your head and you can articulate it to them, they can make it happen. If you show them illustrations of what you want, such as through a vision board, they can articulate it and incorporate it into your website. We may not have gotten it on the first try, but TekRevol is on track to getting our website to where we want it to be. The website will be more easily digestible to the end-user. Also, adding the CTAs will allow us to gather more conversions.

Additionally, they are very visual. We did a lot of video Zoom calls so that they could show us exactly what they wanted to do. This allowed us to be on the same page.

How did TekRevol perform from a project management standpoint?

They were able to get on calls whenever we needed them to. They also include unlimited revisions, so they won’t complete a project until the client is happy. We’ve done multiple revisions.

Communication is sometimes excellent; other times, we don’t get a response from them for a few days. That also comes back on us. Their timeline is great.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their custom design skills are impressive. TekRevol truly makes it your website, not something that everyone else has — you can put logos where you want to and move things around.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I can’t think of anything. 

Any advice for potential customers?

If you’re looking for a customizable solution that’s true to your brand and vision, go with TekRevol. Talk to Sam — he’s great. If you’re looking for something standard that everybody else has, like Wix or Squarespace, do it yourself.
