Custom Software Dev for Translation Company
the project
“They take on any challenge and quickly create requested features.”
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 head of development for CQ fluency, a translation company serving the healthcare industry.
What challenge were you trying to address with Unified Infotech?
We needed to create a middleware to integrate with our business application, but we didn’t have the bandwidth to do so. We don’t have any internal developers besides myself. The initiative was going to be complicated, and hiring enough internal developers would’ve been too expensive.
What was the scope of their involvement?
They’ve researched the application we work with, which is very niche; they’ve learned how our business operates and how the application works so that they can build on top of that. They’ve developed and designed a middleware's front- and backend, which communicates with our main business application, and a REST API from scratch. They’ve designed and updated the infrastructure as needed. All the development’s been done in Node.js, and everything’s been deployed using Microsoft Azure. We’re using Microsoft Azure and MongoDB for databases.
These developments have created a new user experience, enabling single sign-on. They’ve also added a GUI interface, which allows users to make job requests, upload files, and select properties about the request. Users can use the REST API to build client systems that talk to our system. Clients have their own internal systems that require translation; now, they can make direct requests to our system without manual interaction.
Unified Infotech helps solve any issues that arise and has started teaching us how to execute daily interactions between the applications.
What is the team composition?
The team is around 10 people, and it changes depending on what skills are needed at the moment. There is a development manager, DevOps specialist, and front- and backend specialists.
How did you come to work with Unified Infotech?
We interviewed some vendors selected by our VP of Process & Technology. We liked a few of the proposals but felt that Unified Infotech would be the best match based on their thoughtful responses, questions, and suggestions during the interview. They seemed to understand the project scope and the skills needed.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve spent around $200,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
The ongoing project started in mid-2020.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Our customers are already using the integrations and interfaces Unified Infotech has built, which is how I’m measuring success. The project is still in production, but they’ve already streamlined the process for our customers, which is a real game changer for us.
They’ve done a really good job learning our application. They’ve taken the lead on the project and identified problems and solutions by themselves.
How did Unified Infotech perform from a project management standpoint?
They’re on top of the budget; when they’re working fewer hours than we agreed on, they request more tasks.
I like the relationship with Unified Infotech because they’ve been very patient with us. This is our first outsourcing experience, so it's been a learning experience to figure out what they need.
The development manager is always present on calls and tracks action items. We use Jira for project management and communicate via Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and in-person meetings.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They take on any challenge and quickly create requested features. Their delivery is really fast.
Are there any areas they could improve?
Without the technical knowledge of our team, it would be hard to deploy the applications Unified Infotech is developing. If they master the deployment part of the project in a cloud environment like AWS, they’ll be able to better help other clients that don't have this expertise.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Know your requirements well so you can be clear about what you’re requesting. If your project is out of the box, you may need to prepare them for bumps in the road, especially when it comes to deployment. They can overcome problems as they arise, but if they can anticipate problems, they’ll tailor the software ahead of time.

Web Dev for Medical Education Platform
"I've been very happy with the level of communication."
the reviewer
the review
The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the owner of MedEdPrep, a testprep website that aims to help EMTs and Paramedics pass their certification and licensing exams.
For what projects/services did your company hire Unified Infotech, and what were your goals?
We hired UI for the initial build of the website. I had the idea and content created, but did not know how to create a platform for that idea to come through.
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
UI was the fifth company that I had met with in discussing the development of the website. UI was by far the most professional, and was able to clearly show a pathway for how my idea could move forward.
While UI was the more expensive option - when I was looking at the other companies that I felt were a more reasonable cost, they were not able to show previous work that I was happy with and attempted to cut features out of my website. UI did not attempt to cut any features, but instead made a plan for how to make them possible and discussed when they would be done.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
We had an initial meeting to discuss the idea of the website where we were shown other projects they had worked on, and one of which was similar to what my project is about. They were honest about the things they were not familiar with, but made a plan to figure those things out, and in the things that I knew and was good at about this project they actively sought my feedback through the project.
After those initial meetings, we were shown a rough draft, and then an expanded rough draft of features of the website. Then we moved on to a more polished draft that were interactable pictures, but not quite a website. Then we had the actual project development part where we got to play with the 'demo' version of the website and one we were happy with that, we launched the full website.
Bugs were fixed along the way, and there were times where bi-weekly meetings were suggested to ensure the project was going forward, but they respected our time and kept us involved through the whole process.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
We had a point of contact for the initial meeting, and then were transferred to an account manager. We also had a senior project manager and project manager that we interacted with regularly. I've made contact with approximately 8-10 other team members during this time when it was relevant, but I could always track the team members progress and contributions.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
Our companies entire model is based on the website platform and the data that we can collect from the users. As we are a new company, we don't have anything business wise to compare it to, but the users are happy and word of mouth has been important to these acquire these initial customers.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
We used Slack, Jira, and E-mail to communicate regularly. We had weekly zoom/Microsoft Teams meetings and when it was deemed necessary to have another meeting for something that could not be covered in an e-mail, it was communicated clearly and they worked around my schedule best that we could.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
I was given a website that honestly far exceeded the ideas that I had initially envisioned, and it has let our scope of understanding what is possible to expand. UI has went above and beyond in some aspects and it is not the experience that I anticipated. The team is very friendly to work with and when miscommunications happen, we both work to clear it quickly and it minimized any friction that could have occurred. I've been very happy with the level of communication.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
During the initial phases of development there were things that I thought I understood clearly, that looking back was clearly described, but I just had a misunderstanding of what some of the developments were. While I feel this is speaking more to me than UI, I do not understand website coding or the processes and they answered the questions I had clearly - there were some questions I didn't know that I needed to have, that I found out later.

Monthly performance reports are always sent on time and timelines seem to be managed quite well. Overall very happy with this aspect.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
They work with us like true partners - they don't try to gouge us for more money, in fact, they're happy to train my in-house Web Developer to take on and execute tasks himself, so they can work on other high priority or highly impactful projects.

Please describe your company and your position there.
The company is a tech startup I founded as president and CEO in May 2020. We tried to use predefined fields and AI to make it easier for people to find jobs. EmploySee was shut down in March primarily due to Unified Infotech's mismanagement of the project impacting other contracts we had in place.
For what projects/services did your company hire Unified Infotech, and what were your goals?
We hired Unified Infotech to develop a list of features and functionalities prepared by our operations and graphic design teams.
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
We chose Unified Infotech because they had experience in our industry and quoted us at a very low rate, which I was told was because they outsource labor. However, their fees tripled so we were misled.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
First, we provided Unified Infotech with a detailed list of the features and functionalities to be developed. They gave us a SOW which we agreed upon. We use a combination of many technologies for our platform, such as Laravel and Javascript. Deliverables were supposed to be provided periodically, and the steps were supposed to be followed in order so we could review each deliverable. Despite my attempts to ask the project manager for updates, I was told everything was going according to plan when in reality they had already exceeded the project's budget within the first month and were not following the contract language in our agreement.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
On a daily basis, I was in contact with 4 people: The Project Manager, the development team manager, the frontend team manager, and the backend team manager.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
After working with Unified Infotech, we were forced to shut down our company. Their mismanagement of the project cost us 314% more than they quoted us, and the project took 145% longer than they quoted us, both of which directly impacted other contracts with other agencies with mandatory monthly payments.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
Unified Infotech set up our team with two communication platforms, which we only used on 6 occasions at most. The project was ultimately handled via email, making it very difficult to track comments and instructions related to specific subject matters.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
What I found most unique about this company is that the outsourced developers were actually great to work with and spoke very good English. Any and all discontent with Unified Infotech is solely directed at management and administration. I wish I could hire their developers internally.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
Improved communication between teams: There were many instances where I had to repeat things on multiple calls or correct people because not everyone was on the same page. More diligent administration. Less bias: I believe my age may have been a factor in why my expressed concerns were not taken seriously until the problem had escalated to Unified Infotech's Board of Directors.
The vendor responded on July 4, 2022.
We are extremely surprised and shocked to see this rating, as the client had provided a 5-star rating during the final handover and feedback document. We have the document and would be happy to show it to anyone interested.
Firstly we would like to thank the client for giving due praise to our Development Team for their excellent execution of the job as specified by the client, despite Change Requests after the initial plan and estimate were agreed upon.
We understand and confirm that the client did not receive the revised estimate immediately after the Change Requests. The reason for this is we did not receive the complete set of design pages from the client. We were waiting for the missing pages and the estimate wasn’t shared. At the same point of time, we later gave the client the option of discounting the amount that went over his budget, but he went ahead and made the complete payment
After all the diligence and praiseworthy work from the Unified Development Team, as described by the client, it is incredibly unfair to receive such a low rating and disparaging comments from the client. We request the client politely to give us a fair rating and review for the work he received from us.

Please describe your company and your position there.
We provide a software solution for stylists, freelancers and small businesses to manage their appointment scheduling and market their business using our marketplace.
For what projects/services did your company hire Unified Infotech, and what were your goals?
We are a brand new startup and we hired Unified Infotech to build out our entire software. We provided the figma designs and they were hired to build the software for web and mobile. Our goal was to have a functioning product that we could take to market.
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
We selected this company based on the pricing which was affordable as well as reviews we had seen online and lastly, the promise of a quick turnaround time.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
They were to deliver our software using Node js and Angular tech stack. Our mobile application was built using react native tech stack. We divided the project into milestones which were all to be completed within a timeline of 5-6 months.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
We had 6 developers working for us during the time of the project. This consisted of frontend, backend and react native developers as well as a project manager and QA tester
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
Unfortunately the project that was delivered to us with riddled with bugs and did not function as expected. We gave the company many additional months to fix the issues - ultimately we went from thinking the project would be finished within 5-6 months to spending over a year.
After which we were still unable to launch our product due to many issues with the code and standard of software that was delivered. Unified Infotech claimed to have in-house testers but there were many bugs and clear items that were overlooked.
We ultimately had to hire a new team and spend tens of thousands more just to fix all of the issues with the product. Upon doing a code review we found many instances of bad code and overall a poor standard of work.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
We used slack to communicate as well as google sheets for tracking bugs and issues and lastly we housed project specifications on Confluence.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
Initially, we loved the communication; however, several team members left shortly after the project started which seemed to cause confusion with the teams
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
The project timeline should be adhered to and if there are complications this should be communicated to the client. Additionally, there should be actual testers involved in each project to ensure the standard of work delivered is of the highest quality as our product had many obvious bugs and issues that were overlooked.
The client regards the project — still in progress — as a success. Unified Infotech has streamlined the customer experience. They’ve taken the initiative to identify and solve problems and incorporate requested features quickly. They request more tasks to maximize the client’s value for their money.
