Feedback summary: 

Internal stakeholders are pleased with the design and development work that Unicsoft has delivered. Their team offers realistic estimates for timelines and budgets and meets all deadlines while retaining a high level of quality. Their flexibility and responsiveness make them a valued partner.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I own the e-commerce site for Best License Plate Frames.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Unicsoft?

I contacted Unicsoft to build a new version of my site. Another firm initially developed it, and I was running into several issues, including some security concerns.

What were your goals for this project?

I wanted to retain the structure and logic of the older version of the site while making it more user-friendly. I was also hoping to fix the security deficiencies and upgrade our version of OpenCart.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

One of my close friends referred me to Unicsoft.

Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.

Unicsoft is maintaining the older version of our site, and working on designing and developing the newer version. They’re building new features for our website and have upgraded our version of OpenCart to the latest release.

What was the team composition?

The team includes a project manager, an OpenCart developer, and a QA specialist.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?

I’m very satisfied with their designs and the progress of development. I’m convinced that this new version of our site will grow my business and delight my current clients.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

We have regular status calls via Google Hangouts, and when we have urgent issues to resolve, we can reach them on Skype. They're flexible and responsive, despite being located in a different time zone.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

They continue to address my needs and answer all of my questions and concerns. Their team also provides reasonable time estimates and keeps their work under budget. Their professional approach to project management distinguishes them from vendors I’ve worked with in the past.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Recently, in addition to answering my requests, they’ve given me advice regarding business strategy and product improvement. I would like to see them expand the consultancy side of their services.

Feedback summary: 

The application worked well and fully satisfied the client. Unicsoft quickly supplied talented developers and thoroughly documented the project. The team was knowledgeable, communicative, and committed.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm CEO of a software development company. We mainly help a few clients develop and maintain applications to aid their business.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Unicsoft?

One of my developers quit, which jeopardized the delivery of a project. My staff had neither the time nor the skill to take over.

What were your goals for this project?

We needed to quickly catch up on development to keep the project going and please the client. 

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I hired Unicsoft a few years ago and was happy with the results, so I didn't consider other suppliers. I contacted Unicsoft and began the process quickly.

Can you go into detail about the services they provided and the scope of the project?

Two developers from Unicsoft worked with my developer. The project was fairly complex, including several standalone Node.js applications, a Laravel PHP application, MongoDB components, and a React.js application.

What was the team composition?

We had three or four developers. I served as project lead.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?

We're currently deploying and using this application. Our client has spent considerable time and money, but that's necessary to stay competitive.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

We managed the project, using Trello for task management and Slack for communication. Their documentation was fairly good. We met several times to set up local development environments. 

What did you find most impressive about this company?

They produced two strong candidates, and we were happy to get help so quickly. They were genuinely interested in ensuring our satisfaction.

Are there any areas where they can improve?

This question isn't applicable to this project, since their developers were excellent.

Feedback summary: 

Unicsoft created a responsive, user-friendly, and robust website that has helped improve sales over the years. Although they could improve their ability to test deliverables, their team's aptitude for working efficiently and collaboratively sets them apart from others.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I'm the owner of an online caregiver business.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Unicsoft?

I engaged Unicsoft for full service IT support, including web development.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Unicsoft redesigned our website, making updates and introducing new features as needed, using Linux, MySQL, and PHP. They continue to monitor the site and provide full service IT support as needed.

What is the team composition?

I work with a project manager, two developers, and a designer. They draw on additional resources within their team as needed.

How did you come to work with Unicsoft?

I found them through an online freelancing platform and liked that they were professional, experienced, and affordably priced compared to others.

How much have you invested with them?

We've invested around $75,000 thus far.

What is the status of this engagement?

We've been working with them since 2015 and the relationship is ongoing. They continue to make enhancements to the website and develop it further.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Unicsoft successfully revamped our complex website, helping the business grow by about 15% year over year. It's very responsive, user-friendly, and much more dynamic than its previous version.

How did Unicsoft perform from a project management standpoint?

The majority of project managers I've worked with on their team have been great overall. They're professional and provide great feedback and solutions. It feels as though they're part of our team and that they genuinely care about the success and future of our business. They're also efficient with their time and don't waste hours or money. They know how to delegate and prioritize tasks appropriately and deliver very quickly.

What did you find most impressive about them?

I've been much more satisfied with Unicsoft's work compared to other local providers in North America. They're dedicated, smart, and work with my business, rather than for my business. I've also been very impressed by the quality of their code overall.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Testing is not their strong point. There were many features of the site I had to test and have them fix, so I think there's quite a bit of room for improvement there.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the founder and CTO of Virgil Security, Inc.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Unicsoft?

We needed greater internal capacity to develop iOS and Android applications with a heavy security focus.

What were your goals for this project?

One of the key challenges was the audience and open source requirements for the projects. Our customers (software developers) demanded the highest quality of work, all of which was publicly available and accessible.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We met at a conference where we were looking for vendors to augment our team. Unicsoft was hungry for new business and their team was more than qualified for the project. Unicsoft’s responsiveness and technical abilities were the deciding factors for us. Our selection process included our CEO, CTO, and members of the technical staff.

Can you go into detail about the services they provided and the scope of the project?

They developed technical specifications and performed a business analysis to ensure that their product would meet our needs. Unicsoft developed iOS and Android applications with the highest security standards built in. They integrated security into the user flow, which was a massive requirement for us. Then, our team performed QA of the final results.

What was the team composition?

We worked with a project manager and three software developers. We also provided our own QA and documentation staff. The team we worked with grew over time and we didn’t play a role in assembling the team.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?

We were able to quickly grow our staff. As a startup, we couldn’t waste time looking to hire people in every part of our company. But by working with Unicsoft, we were able to rapidly grow our product line and engage with our core customers quicker.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

The development was done according to the Scrum methodology and we were able to see the progress reports every two weeks.  

Unicsoft provided day-to-day management while we reviewed the code using our own staff. We used Jira and GitHub to track our progress and the project was subsequently open sourced and used by hundreds of thousands of developers worldwide.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their communication and technical ability stood out to us. Unicsoft was able to quickly work with us to define the necessary product and functionality and then dive in.

Are there any areas where they can improve?

No. Unicsoft performed as well as can be realistically expected.

Feedback summary: 

Unicsoft’s worked overtime to complete this flagship product on schedule. The team’s successful delivery of the project led to the company’s largest sales year and eventual acquisition.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I was recently the owner of an automotive software as a service (SaaS) analytics company until it was acquired.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Unicsoft?

We wanted to upgrade an out-of-date software product to the latest and most modern technology software stack.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

I initially worked with their designers on re-engineering the visualization of the product. After that, we began a pretty aggressive project plan to create and complete that design using Angular PHP.

How did you come to work with Unicsoft?

I spent a couple months interviewing and discussing the project with some other teams. Unicsoft had some relevant experience in the legacy technology, and had done a conversion on similar software using similar technology. It was this experience that got them the job.

How much have you invested with them?

I spent about $300,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked with Unicsoft from January 2016–February 2018. The initial software build was about six months, but when we completed the process we decided to keep them on for other enhancements and requests.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

I would say the biggest measurable result is that our company was acquired. This project was one of our flagship products, and their work was one part, at least, of that acquisition. We also had our largest sales year in 2017, which I think is attributable to the delivery of this project.

How did Unicsoft perform from a project management standpoint?

Our workflow was very effective. We communicated via Slack and other technology tools on a daily basis, and had monthly milestone check-ins.

What did you find most impressive about them?

I think that they have a can-do attitude. We threw a lot of requests and a lot of very specific timing requirements at them. They were pretty adaptable and willing to put in extra hours to service us.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the owner of KOKORO, a company that builds tools to measure emotions and uses gamification to capture anonymous, real time results, and returns actionable recommendations.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Unicsoft?

I hired Unicsoft to build the architecture, internet presence, and product.

What were your goals for this project?

My goal was to deliver a deployable product within six months.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

A third party recommended Unicsoft to me about four years ago.

Describe the project in detail.

Unicsoft developed the backend of a fast mobile website and a hybrid web app to structure the data in such a way that we can build dashboards for our clients. We also had to ensure it complied with the General Data Protection Regulation [GDPR] requirements.

What was the team composition?

We worked with one project manager and two developers.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What outcomes or results can you share that demonstrate progress and/or success?

Based on the work done so far, we were able to close a first round investment with one of Berlin's top investors. We are now on schedule and looking to deploy a second product I have built with Unicsoft in April.

How effective was the project management?

It was excellent. We have never been disappointed. Problems did arise, but Unicsoft maintains a wonderful platform for collaboration through which we found solutions.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

They really analyzed and tried to understand the business use of the tool I wanted to develop.

What tips or recommendations do you have?

They are a fast growing company because they serve their clients well. I recommend that they take the time to stop and reflect on what tools they still need to learn so that every customer can experience what I have.

The Review
Feedback summary: 

After final release, the app functioned perfectly. Unicsoft was always available to answer questions or address bugs. Their relentless attention to detail, meticulous quality control, and clear communication about the project set them apart from other agencies. 

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the founder of Forte Web Properties, Inc., which creates reference and e-commerce web sites.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Unicsoft?

We needed to add new features to an existing iPhone app that they had built two years earlier.

What were your goals for this project?

We have obtained almost 400 airport terminal maps from around the world. I wanted those maps added to the app and overlaid onto Apple Maps on the iPhone, so the user can see where they are in the airport terminal building.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

Unicsoft had created the app in the first place and did a good job. I figured that it would be most cost-effective to use the same vendor again.

Describe the project in detail.

A few bug fixes needed to be addressed due to the new iOS 11, but the main task was to incorporate airport terminal map KMZ files into the app and enable the user to see their position on the map. Also, the different layers of the map (terminal, gates, services) needed to be toggled on and off. These maps are in-app purchases. Unicsoft developed a backend system so that I could upload maps as they were created or updated.

What was the team composition?

We were assigned a project manager, a customer rep, a quality control technician, and about two programmers.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We are in final release now and the app works great!

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Very good communication. Although Unicsoft has about a 9-hour time difference from me, we had Skype meetings as needed and frequent contact through email. I was always kept in the loop about the project.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The attention to detail from the Unicsoft team was second to none. They found small bugs that I never saw and took care of them. Some vendors disappear for a few days with no communication, which can be quite frustrating. Unicsoft was always in contact with me, and I never felt that I wasn't getting the full picture. I knew where we were and where we were going with the project.

The Review
Feedback summary: 

Compared to western standards, Unicsoft offers quality development work at a fair price. They are communicative and met all deadlines.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

The core business of my organization was to get projects from the Netherlands to be outsourced and completed here in Ukraine. Unfortunately, my organization does not exist anymore due to the crisis here in Ukraine. I was CEO.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Unicsoft?

Unicsoft completed a website project that involved building an application where users can search for the goods of a warehouse.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

The app was built with .NET and C++. Unicsoft contributed to the development of the backend and frontend of the app. Web technologies like Ajax and PHP were involved. Their team had a project manager and four developers.

How did you come to work with Unicsoft?

It was a friend of mine who recommended Unicsoft. I had an interview with the project manager and the CEO. It was very relaxed, and he showed me some projects that they did in the past. I was very satisfied. They were the first agency we worked with here in Ukraine.

How much have you invested with Unicsoft?

It was around $5,000. For western standards, it’s very cheap.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked with them from February 2010 to May 2010. The web application is still working.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Could you share any evidence that would demonstrate the productivity, quality of work, or the impact of the engagement?

Our engagement with Unicsoft was very satisfying. They reported everything and delivered the product on time. If there were any issues, they were discussed upfront. They didn’t wait for the problem to occur.

How did Unicsoft perform from a project management standpoint?

Excellent. They were on top of the project and were very communicative.

What did you most impressive about Unicsoft?

They are a good team to work with. If somebody from the team does not provide quality work, they will replace the person, but that didn’t happen in our project. I would definitely hire them again. If the opportunity arises, I will do business with them whenever possible.

Are there any areas Unicsoft could improve?

I don’t think so. It is not necessary. They are very professional.
