MAKERDAO: SOPHISTICATED CRYPTO TRADING ANALYTICS
MakerDAO dApp is an attractive source of high-quality business data like cryptocurrency rates, exchange rates, interest rates showing fluctuations in the market, etc. All this information may become very handy for effective decision making, if properly structured and presented.
But this is a challenging process, since:
1. Data sourced from blockchain is highly technical and detailed.
2. Manually gathering crypto related data is a daunting task, highly prone to data loss and inaccuracy.
3. Collecting large datasets for building numerous reports and analytics requires specific skills, software, and financial costs.
Technological Challenge
The organization of data transport could be implemented using traditional means (through the use of an API) or the construction of an ETL (Extract, Transform, and Load) pipeline. ETL scripts are flexible yet very powerful tools for collecting, structuring, and presenting blockchain data. In order to set up an ETL pipeline, one should have a solid knowledge of the software environment for executing the ETL scripts, databases, and blockchain operations. At the end of their collaboration with Unicsoft, MakerDAO got an ETL pipeline with a built-in web interface to monitor how it works and set up custom reports. It’s a solution that assists with extracting data from different sources, transforms it into the required format, and loads it into the client’s database.
Today, the entire process is automated, such that it requires minimal support from the client’s side. It’s a solution that assists with extracting data from different sources, transforms it into the required format, and loads it into the client’s database.

BLOCKCHAIN-BASED TRACK & TRACE SYSTEM
The Unicsoft team developed a semi-decentralized solution for issuing and tracking encrypted blockchain-based datamatrix codes as the main layer of protection from grey imports. The datamatrix codes can be scanned at any point in the merchandise life cycle to ensure the authenticity of the product, track its logistics and prevent counterfeiting, effectively solving all the problems listed above.
To ensure high-level security and reliability of the system, we created a process for unique marking code generation using cryptographic protection. All product identification codes, geolocation and movements were stored in a blockchain infrastructure and couldn’t be falsified. Blockchain-based storage and protection of data demanded reliable cloud storage, so we proposed our customer to host all applications on Amazon Web Services.
Unicsoft leveraged a bunch of AWS services: CloudFront, CloudWatch, EC2 Container Service, Elastic Compute Cloud, Elasticsearch Service, Key Management Service, Relational Database Service, Route 53, Simple Storage Service and System Manager.
Since the track & trace solution was blockchain-based we needed to run different nodes and certain parts of it. With AWS it was easy to configure such a system by using VPC, auto-scaling, and different types of instances. Also, it was handy to have options to configure infrastructure exactly as we needed according to requirements.
The Unicsoft team managed to create the end-to-end blockchain-based track & trace ecosystem covering the whole life cycle of goods production and distribution.

SUPPLY CHAIN TRANSPARENCY FOR GOLD MINING INDUSTRY
The basic technical complexity was that existing platforms track the origin of one product, for example, an implant. With gold, it is more difficult – the mine produces large ingots of unrefined gold, further refineries clean it and one unrefined gold ingot produces several bars of a smaller size of high-grade gold, then other institutions can melt these slivers into smaller ones, so the original “product” is crushed into components and it is necessary to track the way of each component back to that big ingot from which it went. Thus, the ready solutions were inapplicable in this case.
The problem was solved by applying the QR code to each ingot and to the derivatives of ingots and creating a custom system for registering all operations of the type in blockage (ingot A was turned into ingots B, C, D by X LTD, ingot A itself no longer exists) and all displacements (ingot B is moved from companies X to company Y with the help of transport company Z).
The system is realized with the help of Ethereum, and the logic of operations with ingots is programmed in the form of smart contracts.

BLOCKCHAIN-BASED GLOBAL RICE TRADING PLATFORM
Distributed system for food product exchanges and commercialization.
It is a sophisticated online marketplace that connects rice exporters, importers, and inspection companies in one place to trade and commercialize rice in a more effective, secure, transparent, and effective manner.
Pioneering Hyperledger
The most suitable and promising technology for the case was Hyperledger. However, it has been a relatively new technology so we needed to be prepared for unexpected issues as pioneers.
Azure VS Hyperledger
The cloud infrastructure was required to be built using Azure cloud. We needed to deal with the lack of smooth native integration between Hyperledger and Azure.
Trust & Transparency VS Security
We needed to combine the transparency offered by DLT and the need in security to prevent fraud and misuse of the platform.

the reviewer
the review
The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
Our company is a provider of SaaS: document management system Schrift.
For what projects/services did your company hire Unicsoft, and what were your goals?
We cooperated with Unicsoft using both models of work they provide - fully managed development and team extension services. Fully managed team worked on the software development of a separate module to be integrated with our existing system that we develop internally.
Unicsoft provided full delivery service including BA, UI/UX design, development, QA and management. We started our cooperation with an engaging remote BA specialist who worked closely with our internal team to prepare detailed technical specifications. Based on the results of our first phase, we decided to continue with a fully managed development project choosing Unicsoft as a trusted vendor.
After project completion, we again extended our internal team with the Frontend developer from Unicsoft to boost the work of our internal team and decrease the time to market. To build the payment module and successfully integrate it with our system so that to prepare an existing system for external customers as SaaS go straight to market.
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
We had a provider who was helping us with the landing page, and when we mentioned that we might need help with the billing module for our document management system, he introduced us to Unicsoft as a trusted software development company. During our first calls and demos they seemed to us as a team of professionals and proved their solid technical experience.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

App Dev & Staff Augmentation for Digital Library Company
“Everything has been well-orchestrated from their side.”
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 CTO and co-founder of a digital library company. We digitalize music sheets and provide access to one of the world’s most comprehensive sheet music libraries regarding classics.
What challenge were you trying to address with Unicsoft?
We aimed to offer a service for Spotify for musicians. For example, if someone wanted to play Beethoven, Mozart, Bach, or whoever else, they could search for sheet music, scores, and different publications in the digital library. Due to certain technical reasons, we were searching for a native code professional specializing in Swift and with experience in C++.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Unicsoft has provided developers with the experience we need. Also, they’re good at understanding security; since we’re simply streaming the content, we need to ensure the user data is protected well. They’ve helped us find the right people, onboard them to the team, and get the job done. Initially, we gave them the job requirements, and they started sending pre-selected candidates. We interviewed them and accepted some of them. Now, their people have become part of our team; some of them still work with us.
Doing an iOS app is a particular pain because Berlin is a hot market and many developers use cross-platform frameworks. We work with high-performance aspects in our app, so they’ve built a Swift application from scratch. We initially provided the designs, and Unicsoft has taken care of the implementation. They’ve also implemented a complex UI with unique custom-built elements.
The app is in the App Store, and it allows users to access a digital music library and interact with the scores. Some of them are fully native digital and rendered, so users can do minor editing and annotations. Also, people have the options to share the content and have high-quality scanned material cleaned up with annotation capabilities. Additionally, the app understands where the elements are. Beyond just being able to draw the line, it understands music notation and annotation — it can be used for practicing, preparing for a concert, curiosity, or more. Finally, it includes other tools, such as a metronome or a tuner.
What is the team composition?
We started with one developer and then grew the team. We had an iOS developer who isn’t with us anymore, and we’ve had another senior iOS developer who was promoted to team lead. Currently, we’re working with a senior C++ engineer.
How did you come to work with Unicsoft?
One of our colleagues worked with them in the past and referred them.
What is the status of this engagement?
We began working with them around February 2020, and our relationship is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Our users are pretty happy, and Unicsoft has done an excellent job. They’ve handled the project and been responsible. They’ve delivered on time, and the quality of the implementation is high — there’s a significant degree of tech coverage. Also, we have the proper automation in place.
Bugs don’t happen often and rarely in production, especially nowadays. However, Unicsoft isn’t the only one responsible for that; we also have freelancers and other people working onsite. In general, we don’t experience any serious issues with the application; it works well thanks to Unicsoft.
Moreover, they’re part of our team. One of the developers is now the iOS team's leader, which consists of several people worldwide. This developer in particular can digest requirements well and propose his own ideas. He’s good at mentoring and debugging. Also, he’s done a substantial part of the work regarding functionality and contributed to the open-source project. Overall, he’s a good engineer and team lead.
How did Unicsoft perform from a project management standpoint?
They’ve performed very well. They haven’t missed deadlines, at least not from their team. We’ve had some delays, but they were caused by more general issues. The team is usually punctual; they notify us upfront if something happens. We typically communicate via Slack and use Jira and Confluence as project management tools.
Also, the team culture is great. They’re highly motivated; they often work overtime to get things done. As a startup, we highly appreciate that because sometimes we have to push beyond boundaries to achieve our goals. All in all, Unicsoft has satisfied our expectations and made us very happy.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Their reliability is their strongest point — they act and deliver on their commitments and don’t overpromise things. We’ve worked with other providers who were unclear on what they could achieve. Unfortunately, those experiences were pretty frustrating. With Unicsoft, everything has been well-orchestrated from their side.
Also, something unique about them is that they give you flexibility. You can make them part of your team or let them manage the project. We have a project manager because we wanted a lead. However, you usually end up in locked-up conditions with other service providers.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, things have gone well.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Be particular with the requirements; you should immediately articulate what you want. Ideally, it’d be good to have mock-ups, a description, or documentation to hand over or share. Also, be quick in the communication; they answer quickly and in detail.

the review
The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
We contracted Unicsoft for development work to cover accessibility and some areas of e-com. The development coverage was needed to stay on track with project timelines and resource avaliabilities.
For what projects/services did your company hire Unicsoft, and what were your goals?
Goal is to bridge project development needs required by Unicsoft whom provided the resource with cost effective resources available to assist in a short time period.
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
We identified specific skill sets which Unicsoft was able to supply list of candidates to interview, conduct online development testing before interview is scheduled. Once all criteria were meet, we extended the contract to the candidate. We provided a monthly touch point and review candidate's performance. Should the candidate not perform we have option to find another suited candidate. So far we had a handful of great candidates we used on our projects.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
We had kick off meetings, standups, sprint plannings (agile ceremonies using Jira) and regular communication through slack.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
Total of 5 software developers used. 3 are active as front end engineers.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
Completed all the Accessibility work identified. The development had testing and validation with code reviews to ensure quality submitted to production is minimal bugs, 1% or less.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
Engineers and Product Managers are the point of contacts during daily standups and sprint planning. The monthly touch points are meet by the account manager along with the Sr Director of Engineer, Sr Director of Product and Director of Program Management. Slack message are used as communication channels as developers are in different time zones. Jira are use to track development and success of feature development.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
Cost-effective with vast skills that is easily identified to onboard quickly in a short time. Their flexibility to pivot projects due to priorities is impressive, and the resources' ability to adapt quickly to medium to high English as their second language is important for communication.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
When code is released to production, bugs found are quickly addressed. The timezone makes it slightly challenging when hosting standup and sprint planning as it would be the middle of the night for some developers based in Ukraine. Which we have separate Product Managers to assist on special projects to move sprint planning early day vs late in the evening for compromise.

Blockchain Development for Sports Blockchain Ecosystem
“They provide weekly reports about their progress, so we’re always aware of what’s going on.”
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 an executive at a company that provides blockchain-based solutions and services to the sports industry: clubs, fans, athletes, venues, and sports associations.
What challenge were you trying to address with Unicsoft?
The challenge with existing solutions is that fans are not very confident about paying for blockchain items through cryptocurrency. We needed to provide them with ease-of-use access to the services. Our company develops these services, and we’ve hired Unicsoft to build their technological framework.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Unicsoft provides us with blockchain development. Initially, we gave them a rough idea of the services we wanted to provide, what could be handled via blockchain, and how. We started with a discovery phase which we budgeted separately, analyzing what we aimed to provide. They showed us how they would solve individual solutions. Then, they made a commercial offer for the programming work and the blockchain development. Now, the team plans the services and solution builds.
They’ve built an AWS-based near-field communication platform with all the related legal aspects that go along with it. They’ve also added links to FAQs. Unicsoft has just finished the MVP product and is currently working on integrating credit card payments and other payment options fans would require. The team runs the solution on Binance, which provides our required speed and minimizes any cost from the users’ point of view.
We’re already outlining the next phase with Unicsoft, where they’ll develop the full version of the tool. They’re helping us reframe the project and add some additional features.
How did you come to work with Unicsoft?
We had discussions with numerous blockchain development companies where we explained our aim, and they explained what they could provide. Our team screened the candidates, and we decided to go with Unicsoft based on their approach, experience, and geographical location.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working together in October 2021, and the engagement is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We’ve measured the project’s success based on the usability of the tool that went live a few weeks ago. This is the first product we’ve deployed with them, and it’s very nice-looking, and the UX is good. Moreover, the near-field communication is functional, and the backend is made up nicely. We haven’t done extensive marketing since the solution has only been live for a short while.
How did Unicsoft perform from a project management standpoint?
In these types of projects, finding a matrix and establishing a control mechanism is important, and we’ve found a very professional way of working with the Unicsoft team. We’ve set up our agreements; we budget any additional requirements separately and create addendums.
They provide weekly reports about their progress, so we’re always aware of what’s going on and where we are with the budget. We’ve communicated in various ways throughout the project. For example, in the intensive phase, before we released the MVP, we had weekly status meetings and used several channels, like Jira and Microsoft Teams.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I’m impressed with Unicsoft’s high level of professionalism. They were initially based in Ukraine, and during the development process, the Russian Invasion started. The team had an emergency plan, and we only had a 2–3 week interruption of development before they settled their operations in other locations. Through this transition, they never let us feel the pain they were going through nor the concern they had for their family members.
Are there any areas they could improve?
I don’t see any areas they need to improve.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
I’d advise being transparent about your vision and organizational structure. This approach is key to short decision-making processes because Unicsoft can only perform as quickly as you decide which way to go. In many development projects, the developers are blamed for poor performance when the real issue is the client’s decision-making process.

Please describe your company and your position there.
I'm one of the co-founders, acting as a product owner and responsible for our roadmap and making sure customer requirements are translated into the right features.
For what projects/services did your company hire Unicsoft, and what were your goals?
We offer a no-code platform to support engineering teams in construction projects. It allows users to build their own data model and user interface (views, etc.) to support their own processes such as requirement management, risk management, etc. The high configurability of levvr, requires a certain level of abstraction that is uncommon in most software applications. In order to maintain our scalability, we needed to set up levvr in a distributed way while keeping in mind various needs such as changing metamodels, a mechanism to update project data accordingly and for example to be able to capture data changes (history management). Both on the setup and actual development, we were supported by Unicsoft.
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
We found Unicsoft through a referral and immediately had a great feeling due to their professionalism in terms of communication and defining scope.

Web Dev for Blockchain Tech Company
"They are incredibly thorough, organized, and easy to work with."
the reviewer

The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the Founder of a Web3 tech company. We license our software to businesses in the space.
For what projects/services did your company hire Unicsoft, and what were your goals?
We hired Unicsoft to come in and clean up, beta test and check the security of our current development. We are now developing new features on top of our software.
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
They had a lot of experience over a multitude of industries such a AI, Big Data, Machine Learning, etc. We are in the blockchain space but I figured if they can execute huge, incredibly intricate projects in spaces such as the ones listed above, they must be extremely detailed, skilled, and have very organized company / working structures in place... and I was right! I was looking for a company that will do more than just "do what I say", I was looking for a tech partner who can provide valuable insight into what they think is the best way to approach situations/development.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
They are incredibly thorough and organized, for example after I signed on, they provided me with a ~180 page document detailing every single function of the current state of our site / our future objectives, as well as hundreds of lines of an Excel spreadsheet which each line being every button/area/function on the website, with a description of what it does, and any questions they had next to it.
Once they had a thorough understanding of the website, they went through and security-checked the smart contracts (and provided a huge document detailing that as well), beta tested the site, and we are now moving into the next phases of development. We are developed in Vue and Node.js.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
When I first signed on I had meetings with the project manager and 2 others, and now I communicate daily / weekly with just the project manager. There is a team of about 5+ I believe.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
I cannot stress how great working with Unicsoft has been. Development teams I have used before required so much hand-holding and micromanaging, whereas with Unicsoft I get to sit back and trust that they have everything handled (I am a perfectionist / tend to micromanage so this rarely happens)!
They are incredibly thorough, organized, and easy to work with. Our website is functioning so much better, and they have brought up and fixed issues with the software I did not even know about.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
Very streamlined and organized, I communicate with one project manager over Telegram. When we were in the intense beta phase, they set up a huge excel doc with each line detailing every item on the site, and would write any questions next to it which I would answer directly in the doc, and turn it from red to green, so we are all on the same page. This organization is not something I have seen from a dev agency before them!
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
The organization and how detail-oriented they are with their internal processes.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
No.

As the developers we hire are now part of our dev team, we are continuously working on improving our ways of working. There's nothing in particular needed from the developers hired through Unicsoft.

I'm the founder of a startup building a blockchain-powered B2C sustainable action platform and marketplace that democratizes climate action
For what projects/services did your company hire Unicsoft, and what were your goals?
We needed a super-reputable global developer with solid blockchain and smart contract experiences. We prepared a detailed RFP and sent it to leading blockchain developers, including Unicsoft.
How did you select Unicsoft and what were the deciding factors?
Unicsoft won the competitive RFP via its pricing, experience, and careful and detailed response to the RFP. Their advanced Project Management (PM) methodology instilled high levels of confidence as did the deed experience of their team and work done for other clients.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
Project Scope included refining important technical features of the solution, developing user personas, user journeys, look & feel, etc.
Smart contracts, payment gateways, UI, UX, catalog development and more were part of the project, which was managed with care and accuracy by the PM.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
We worked with about 6 people including the PM, an account manager, a bockchain smart contract developer, a graphic designer with great UX skills.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
We were able to complete the project faster and at a better cost using Unicsoft compared to the other vendors that submitted quotes via the RFP. The project proved key parts of the platform concept and helped gauge user acceptance.
The project served as a reusable component for future projects and as a way to showcase the solution to partners and investors.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timelines.
Unicsoft has great PM skills and provided a weekly summary of activities, oustannding issues, etc. Every hour of the project was carefully accounted for and the team was always on the lookout for risks and opportunities.
This is a very international team with great liaison skills, the ability to work at a global enterprise or a startup level, and a smart, positive team that was a delight to work with.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
This company has a great culture and a genuine interest in helping clients solve tough problems. They use advanced and transparent methodologies that one can trust, they are responsive, friendly, professional, and they really care about their clients.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
While every company can use improvement, it's hard to come up with suggestions for Unicsoft. It's always smart to check out other reviews, but this reviewer can think of no real improvements that need to be made.
I've worked with leading global IT providers while heading strategic initiatives at leading Fortune 500 international corporations, as a management consultant for leading companies, and with startups.
I would bring in Unicsoft as a vendor with any of them.
The client was impressed with Unicsoft's developers, citing their expertise and contribution to the internal team. Their personal approach to the project led to a seamless workflow. Unicsoft showed diligence, good listening skills, and quick responses that catered to the project's immediate needs.
