Magento Development Resources for Sporting Goods Retailer
“Terrific Minds do their jobs well.”
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 e-commerce development for Monkey Sports, a sporting goods retailer. We sell hockey, baseball, and lacrosse equipment online and in brick-and-mortar retail stores.
What challenge were you trying to address with Terrific Minds?
During the first time we initiated our relationship with Terrific Minds, we needed additional support for our Magento development needs. We had in-house developers, but we needed Terrific Minds to add more to our resources.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Terrific Minds helps us with Magento development. Our in-house senior developer communicates with them mainly through Teams, where we give them development tasks via a ticketing system. We give them the tasks’ requirements, and if they have any questions, we answer them. Once the tasks are done, we do QA tests. We then go through that process again as part of our regular development cycles.
What is the team composition?
We’re in direct contact with their developers.
How did you come to work with Terrific Minds?
One of our former developers was an employee of Terrific Minds. When we needed more development resources, that developer told us about the Terrific Minds team. In other words, they were a referral.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve spent between $200,000–$500,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working together in June 2016, and the engagement is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Terrific Minds is able to complete our requirements within our estimated amount of time; they can deliver the tasks on time and on budget.
How did Terrific Minds perform from a project management standpoint?
Their project management is great. The team has great communication skills, and they’re always on point in terms of budget. In terms of tools, we mainly use Teams to communicate. We use Assembla as the main project management tool; it’s similar to Jira. We rarely use emails.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Terrific Minds do their jobs well. On top of that, they’re relatively more budget-friendly than other teams.
Are there any areas they could improve?
Most of the projects we do with Terrific Minds are medium-level tasks. If they want to grow more, they should be able to do bigger tasks. Moreover, based on what we’ve seen in the past, we can do bigger projects with onshore teams that have project managers — they’re able to manage projects better than offshore teams.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Give clear requirements to Terrific Minds. This reduces many headaches on both sides.
