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 co-founder of Odora, a loyalty program application for Android and iOS. The app rewards customers when they shop with registered vendors. This encourages clients to shop at the same location again.
What challenge were you trying to address with WebcentrIQ?
We studied the market, and we realized that loyalty cashback programs were one of the main reasons that people shopped at big retailers.
We were trying to create more opportunities for service providers and stores that were ready to offer better service for their loyalty programs.
What was the scope of their involvement?
WebcentrIQ developed the application completely from scratch for iOS and Android. The app rewards people who want to support their local businesses, and it’s live on both the Apple and Google Play stores.
The software developers coded the app. They also did some of the research and documentation that we required based on a few unknowns.
What is the team composition?
We worked with eight people on this project, including 3–4 developers, one designer, two analysts, and one project manager. I also spoke to Sheila (CEO), who was very professional. I really enjoyed working with her.
How did you come to work with WebcentrIQ?
I was referred to WebcentrIQ by my friend who is also a business owner. He's known WebcentrIQ for many years.
How much have you invested with them?
We spent around $250,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We worked with WebcentrIQ on the project from September 2019–April 2020.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We don’t have any feedback from customers, but the application works perfectly. So far, we haven’t had any issues with it.
How did WebcentrIQ perform from a project management standpoint?
Honestly, WebcentrIQ had the best project management that I have experienced throughout my whole career. Their software developers worked on the app on a day-to-day basis.
We communicated via email and phone calls. They were very communicative and responsive to my questions.
What did you find most impressive about them?
The most impressive aspect about WebcentrIQ was their quality of work and what they delivered. I'm really happy with them and what they did for us. They met all of my requirements and fulfilled my requests. They did a great job.
I have worked in a lot of different development environments, and they were by far the best team I've worked with. This was hugely important to me and made for a strong, stress-free partnership.
Are there any areas they could improve?
I don't think there is any aspect they could improve.
Any advice for potential customers?
I recommend being patient and investing time at the start of the project to find the right team that will lead to a good partnership. I 100% recommend WebcentrIQ.

Web App Development for Financial Services Startup
‘’They were quick at understanding our requirements.’’
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 founder of a startup that focuses on making the donation process easier for nonprofits.
What challenge were you trying to address with WebcentrIQ?
We wanted to build the web app version of a website that we put together as a prototype offline. We needed to go from nothing to something that someone can log into to see and use.
What was the scope of their involvement?
WebcentrIQ designed a database on the backend. This included user setup authentication and user profiles where we could upload user data. Users could log in and see those reports. There’s not much functionality in the tool besides basic filtering, sorting, and Excel exporting.
There was no CMS, but we’re doing it separately using GoDaddy’s website builder, and then we link that platform to the app, which is where the user looks at reports.
What is the team composition?
Sheila (CEO) is my main point of contact.
How did you come to work with WebcentrIQ?
I first found WebcentrIQ because they were advertised on Upwork. We chose them because they had good reviews. Along with their fair prices, they were also located in the same time zone as us. I reached out to them and other agencies, but WebcentrIQ cared about what I was doing. Their team was responsive, friendly, and easy to go back-and-forth with.
After that, we talked about different scopes of work and ended up solidifying the engagement.
How much have you invested with them?
We spent between $5,000–$7,500 with them.
What is the status of this engagement?
It began in January 2021, and we wrapped it up 30–40 days later in March.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
There are no metrics set at this time because our focus from a growth standpoint is still offline. We were just looking for a usable app with functionality, which they delivered. Nonetheless, we have technical advisors who looked at the code and said it was well-written and organized.
How did WebcentrIQ perform from a project management standpoint?
We worked through emails and Slack for communication. We put together a project plan with a list of milestones, and every time we reached a checkpoint, they sent us a Slack telling us what’s been done.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They were quick at understanding our requirements. Their team was also very self-directed, so it didn’t take much management from our end.
Are there any areas they could improve?
We would’ve liked face-to-face milestone check-in occasionally.
Any advice for potential customers?
Use multiple forms of communication. It was great for us that we could be very mobile and manage the project through Slack. I think they’d benefit from that and not by choosing just one method of communication.

Website Development for Lumber Retail Company
“Their desire to get everything done correctly was impressive.”

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I am the owner of GOSMICK, an online lumber retail company.
What challenge were you trying to address with WebcentrIQ?
I was looking for help creating a new website.
What was the scope of their involvement?
WebcentrIQ developed and designed our website. The website is a portal that brings together estimators, buyers, and sellers of lumbers and accommodates the transaction.

How did you come to work with WebcentrIQ?

How much have you invested with them?
We have invested between $40,000–$45,000.
What is the status of this engagement?

There is a time difference between our team and theirs, but it didn’t cause any issues. They manage it well.

Web Dev & UI/UI Design for Luxury Boating Company
"One thing I really like about WebcentrIQ is that they treat every product as though it were their own."
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.
My main company is called Legacy Cruises and Events. We have a suite of yachts and other vessels in San Diego Bay for private events.
What challenge were you trying to address with WebcentrIQ?
We work with a lot of marine professionals, including captains and people who do custom work, such as fabricators and carpenters. Many of those people don’t have a web presence since it’s a more old-school, traditional industry. I saw an opportunity to provide a platform for these professionals to showcase their work, get more visibility to customers, and maybe even provide quotes and schedule appointments.
What was the scope of their involvement?
WebcentrIQ created the entire platform. I sat down and gave my sense of what it should look like based on my understanding of the marine industry. I detailed what was important to showcase, and what features were important to have. They took it from there.
After they created wireframes for different pages, we made a review of the UI/UX and the feature set. They then went on to develop it. I was mostly involved in driving what the user experience should be and what was important based on my industry experience.
The first phase of the product was web-based. I see room for expansion in the upcoming phases in terms of transactional features — i.e., giving marine professionals the ability to book customers, provide them quotes, or even have those customers pay for the services. I think we can go broader, and even enter the mobile application space. I see a lot of opportunities to continue on, based on the success we’ll see with the web-based platform, which will be coming out soon.
What is the team composition?
Sheila (Founder and CEO) has been my main point of contact. I’ve also been in a few meetings with Mike (Co-Founder and CTO) to review different proposals.
How did you come to work with WebcentrIQ?
My company has a website for our main operations, and there were some functionalities I wanted to add to it. I was looking for a company in San Diego that could develop a custom booking feature on the site, and I found WebcentrIQ. When it came time for this new initiative, we already had a good working relationship, so I decided to go with them for a new website.
How much have you invested with them?
The total so far is in the $50,000 territory.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with WebcentrIQ in February 2018.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Quality-wise, we’ve been very satisfied. One thing I really like about WebcentrIQ is that they treat every product as though it were their own. They don’t always get it right the first time, but they take responsibility and ownership to improve the quality. That’s an important quality to me. I’ve worked with a lot of contractors when it comes to building boats, and the ones that last and that we’re truly satisfied with are the ones that take ownership of the work as though it were their own product.
We also track budgeting and schedules, and I’ve found that WebcentrIQ is really good at establishing milestones upfront. They give me a really good sense of what the timeline and the major milestones are going to be. From both a qualitative and quantitative standpoint, it’s been a super successful relationship.
How did WebcentrIQ perform from a project management standpoint?
One of the key strengths of their team is how well they communicate. We keep in touch on a regular basis, and meetings are promptly scheduled whenever they’re required. They use very good technology to track the work and conduct meetings, whether it’s conference calls or demos.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I appreciate the super high quality of work, the pride that they take in their work, and the follow-through. Working with a company for two years speaks for itself.
Are there any areas they could improve?
Every project has issues that need to be solved. WebcentrIQ has really been able to address problems when they came up. They’re good problem solvers. I haven’t had anything really negative come up, as far as things that were systematic. If something didn’t work, they were really good at coming together, looking at the problem, finding a solution, and moving forward. I haven’t seen anything that they couldn’t do. It’s always been very positive.
Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?
They’re very good at scoping things out and taking care of the initial scheduling, and anyone looking to work with them should take advantage of that. Clients should spend time upfront working with the WebcentrIQ team, to get the project properly scoped out and set milestones. They’re very good at those things, and it helps to get the project to a successful outcome.
Other than that, they’ve got very good technological capabilities, and clients should take advantage of that. There are many ways to develop an application, and WebcentrIQ has capabilities that scale to many different types of applications. The upfront work pays off throughout the project.
