A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I'm a director at a career institute that is one of the largest education companies in India. We have around 500,000 students who study with us and prepare for the admission exams in the fields of engineering and medical sciences for graduation colleges. Admission exams are a big deal in India because universities have limited spaces. Our company is 30 years old and has a $400 million revenue.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Wednesday Solutions?
Our technology division is pretty new, and a lot of the team-building has happened in Bengaluru over the course of last year. We're trying to digitize the experience of our students studying in physical classrooms and build a new solution for students who like to study completely online. We wanted to build different solutions, and our internal team didn't have the required bandwidth.
Our bar for hiring developers and engineers is pretty high, so our strength and team are growing slowly. We required a partner who could augment our engineering staffing and meet our product roadmap on time. Our products involve various stakeholders because there are features geared toward teachers, students, and parents. We hired Wednesday Solutions and gave them some pieces of the product roadmap to build.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Wednesday Solutions offers staff augmentation services for our company and supports the development and design of our mobile application. The app will be available for iOS and Android users. Initially, we had various sessions with Wednesday Solutions to give them context about our company and what we wanted to achieve with our product.
We've also provided the team with documents regarding design and product requirements. We've given the design team an understanding of our design system and shared our color scheme and language system. Some of our development requirements are more detailed and high-level than others regarding requirements and functionality. Wednesday Solutions has collaborated internally with us to create detailed user cases and story points that engineering teams can pick up and execute.
What is the team composition?
I work with 2–3 teammates from Wednesday Solutions for the majority of the time: Mohammed (CTO), a program manager, and a designer.
How did you come to work with Wednesday Solutions?
We met Wednesday Solutions through a recommendation. How much have you invested with them?
Our billing ranges from $30,000–$40,000 monthly.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with Wednesday Solutions in January 2024, and our engagement is ongoing. We've increased the number of projects we're giving the team.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We're happy with Wednesday Solutions' work results and execution timelines. The feedback from our students has been positive, and it's reflected in our app ratings. Some of the team's work has been on students' mental wellbeing, which is extremely important. We understand students are stressed when preparing academically and spending two years with us. We need to take action to ease the mental stress students go through.
Some solutions delivered by Wednesday Solutions are helping us achieve de-stress systems and giving more avenues for students to speak up and get mentorship. Students can take nonacademic breaks and access tools to build a better mindset.
How did Wednesday Solutions perform from a project management standpoint?
Wednesday Solutions delivers work on time and on budget. In the beginning, there was some back-and-forth because our teams were new to collaborating with each other and were trying to understand their ways of working. I consider this natural. Wednesday Solutions is responsive and acts on feedback, adapting to our team's way of working so everything is smooth. Are there any employees from the service provider's team that you would like to give a shout-out to in this review?
Mohammed is a great leader who displays great clarity of thought when he speaks. He grasps our context well and quickly. He's adaptive to the ecosystem where he's building, and his skill set is very good, delivering high-level solutions.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Wednesday Solutions' ownership is extremely high and works as if this was their project. I also like that there is a lot of involvement from the founder, who takes a keen interest in our projects and delivers tasks. Wednesday Solutions offers personal attention and has very high work ownership.
Are there any areas they could improve?
Wednesday Solutions can come up with a model where they spend more physical time with their partnering team. We're based in Bengaluru, and the team is based in Pune. We would appreciate it if Wednesday Solutions could come to our offices more often to help build non-transactional relationships, which can help us achieve goals faster and smoother because our teams would be more connected.
Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?
Be clear about the product's requirements that you desire to build. If you're clear about the end objective of what you're trying to launch and the product solution, the team will do a great job executing your project and bringing it to life. I suggest having clarity in the product solution.

As a first-time founder without a technical background, I received unparalleled support from Wednesday Solutions. They guided me through all technical needs every step of the way, offering almost 24/7 support despite the significant time zone differences between India and the US. Their dedication and commitment ensured I had the support I needed in the area that mattered most.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The measurable outcomes from the project with Wednesday Solutions were nothing short of outstanding. Our app's launch was a resounding success, with a smooth, user-friendly interface that has garnered highly positive feedback from our users. We achieved significant user growth, hitting key milestones well ahead of schedule, thanks to the strategic features and marketing strategies they implemented.
Our website, developed by Wednesday Solutions, has seen a substantial increase in traffic and engagement, further contributing to our overall growth. They continuously introduced new features that enhanced user engagement, keeping our app fresh and exciting. Most impressively, they consistently met deadlines, even those with high variance and unpredictability, showcasing their remarkable adaptability and dedication.
Their communication with me was exemplary, always responsive and clear despite the significant time zone differences. This level of commitment and high-quality delivery was instrumental in our early success and demonstrated their ability to perform at the highest level. They provided a top-notch app and website, continuously introduced innovative features, and maintained high standards throughout the project.
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
Their project management was exemplary and a crucial element of our collaboration. As a first-time tech startup founder with limited technical experience, having reliable and efficient project management was vital for our success. Wednesday Solutions delivered every item on time, consistently meeting or exceeding deadlines. Despite the complexity of our project and the involvement of multiple project managers, they ensured seamless transitions, and we never experienced any lag or downside.
Their highly responsive approach to our needs, addressing concerns or requests promptly and efficiently, was particularly reassuring. Their proactive communication and thorough attention to detail ensured that every aspect of the project was handled with precision and care. This level of dedication and excellence in project management filled one of my biggest gaps, providing the critical support we needed and greatly contributing to the overall success of our partnership. Their punctuality and reliability have been impeccable, ensuring our project stayed on track. Their exceptional technical skills, seamless project management, and genuine personal connections have made this partnership truly remarkable. Their comprehensive range of services, strategic guidance, and dedication to our success provided immense value far exceeding the cost.
What was your primary form of communication with Wednesday Solutions?
Virtual Meeting
Email or Messaging App
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
What I found most impressive and unique about Wednesday Solutions was not just the exceptional quality of their services, but the deep interpersonal connections they built with me as a client. Their UX/UI design, app development, ongoing app support, continuous feature upgrades, required maintenance, and stellar project management were all top-notch. However, what truly stood out was how they made me feel like a valued partner every step of the way.
As someone new to the tech world with a big vision for my company, having such dedicated support was invaluable. Despite being on the other side of the world, their team made me feel like I was right there in the office with them every day. Logging on every morning and night to talk with them was a highlight, as it felt like our teams were seamlessly integrated.
Wednesday Solutions treated us not just as a project, and we didn’t view them merely as a contractor. We became one big family, and I consider the teammates I worked with to be my personal friends. The quality of people they bring on to support their clients is nothing short of impressive, and their commitment to our success went above and beyond anything I could have expected.
Are there any areas for improvement or something Wednesday Solutions could have done differently?
I genuinely tried to think of areas for improvement, but I honestly couldn't come up with any. Wednesday Solutions has exceeded all my expectations in every possible way. From their technical expertise and exceptional project management to their personal dedication and seamless integration with our team, every aspect of their service has been outstanding. Their commitment to our success and their ability to make us feel like a unified team have truly set them apart. I often tell our Wednesday teammates "we wouldn't be where we are without you" and I mean that in every way. I have already introduced them to another client who is now working with them, and I will continue to do so. Their exceptional service, dedication, and expertise make them the ideal partner for any project.

Thanks to the vendor's focus and expertise, the client is on track to make their MVP only after four months of work. The client was most impressed by the vendor's ability to grasp exactly what they needed and give them suggestions on how to make the product better.

BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
I'm the Founder of Spotwriters and we are democratising the screenwriting industry of India by allowing writers from anywhere to bring their stories to producers and directors in a transparent, protected, and legally binding manner.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Wednesday Solutions, and what were your goals?
We hired Wednesday Solutions to create our entire Web-app from scratch. The goals were to build fast and get our product to market as soon as possible so that we could start testing with our users and take in feedback. Another goal was to make sure the platform performs perfectly as it is a legally binding platform.
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
Wednesday came to us with a great proposal that was built on an agile methodology with a feedback loop. Their understanding of the requirements and methods to execute was absolutely top-notch. They also had great communication and a project plan that ensured full transparency and clarity.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
The scope of work is to build an entire web-app that supports a copyrighting user-journey and a marketplace for transactions. The project is planned as 2 week sprints that complete certain feature sets in each stint. We have created an audit trail of all actions on the website, a legally binding offer mechanism, a marketplace for stories to be bought and sold, and will be doing a lot more - community pages, messaging systems, feeds, etc.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
The best thing about Wednesday is that they don't overcomplicate things. It is also a dynamic team depending on my projects requirements month-on-month. On average, there are 5 team members - a project lead, a senior software developer, 2 software developers, and a senior designer.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
We are on track to get to the MVP of this project in just 4 months. I have made numerous changes to the project since Day 0 and the team has swiftly incorporated these changes into the product. They work really fluidly and are great at ways to find simpler solutions to complex problems. The current product is well beyond my expectations.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
This is probably Wednesday's biggest plus point. We have a dedicated Slack workplace and internally they use gant charts on Jira to keep track of timelines. We have had almost no delays as compared to the plan and all issues and problems are communicated very openly. The project management style is an agile method that is really useful.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
The most impressive and unique thing about Wednesday was their ability to grasp exactly what we need, and the developers' ability to give us suggestions on how to make our product better. They come with such high-level experience, that even before going to market, we've already made many changes to make the product better.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
Not at all, the project has been absolutely well-delivered since day 0 and so far I can't think of anything to be done differently.

Wednesday Solutions provides staff augmentation services to a logistics and transportation company. The engineering resources are working alongside the client’s team to rewrite their Android app from scratch.
Wednesday Solutions has identified qualified engineering resources who’ve gone above and beyond to exceed expectations. The team has delivered high-quality work ahead of schedule. Additionally, they’ve used Jira and Asana to share progress updates.
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the director of engineering for a transportation and logistics company.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Wednesday Solutions?
We needed to engage a confident engineering team to help us rewrite the code for our mobile app.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Wednesday Solutions provides staff augmentation support to our team. At the beginning of the project, our design, product, and engineering teams collaborated to determine how best to rewrite the app, depending on the market. Now, the resources are working alongside our cross-platform development team to rewrite our existing Android app from scratch.
Their deliverables include documentation and a high-performing bike taxi mobile app. The app enables users to log in using WhatsApp and access our services and vehicles. Users can input their pick-up locations and destinations and confirm their bookings with our driver partners. Additionally, they can manage their profile settings, access FAQs, and reach out to our customer support team. Furthermore, they can rate and review our driver partners directly through the app.
What is the team composition?
We work with a technical lead and senior Android engineer from Wednesday Solutions.
How did you come to work with Wednesday Solutions?
We found Wednesday Solutions through a Google search; we interviewed multiple companies and decided to move forward with them.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve invested $100,000 in the partnership.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with them in August 2022, and the partnership is ongoing.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
At the beginning of the project, we set a high benchmark for software development skills and expertise. Wednesday Solutions has not only followed our quality and delivery standards, but they’ve also pushed boundaries to move the project forward.
We’ve distributed the rewritten version of the app internally, but we plan to launch it publicly in the foreseeable future.
How did Wednesday Solutions perform from a project management standpoint?
Wednesday Solutions isn’t involved in our day-to-day project management process because we’ve integrated their engineers with our internal team. Having said that, the resources from Wednesday Solutions have delivered items ahead of schedule and according to our standards. We’ve faced a few hurdles, but nothing major.
We use Asana and Jira to manage the project, and the resources follow our internal process to share progress updates regarding deliverables.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I’m most impressed with their desire to exceed expectations rather than just follow orders. They go out of their way to improve our engineering standards, which sets them apart. They want to find meaning in their work while respecting our delivery timelines.
Are there any areas they could improve?
I have nothing Wednesday Solutions could improve on.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Communicate your expectations clearly, and collaborate closely with Wednesday Solutions. Also, follow a diligent onboarding process so the resources can understand your quality standards and timeline benchmarks.

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m an HSBC corporate banker and I have created two startups: a hedging services startup and a personal finance management startup. We raised our seed funding and ran the second company for almost five and a half years before selling it to an investing, non-banking finance company.
I’m now working on Buildd, a Banking as a Service platform. We deal with embedded finance and vertical Fin-SaaS modules. I’m the founder and CEO.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Wednesday Solutions?
We needed to develop a placeholder website and a prototype.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Wednesday Solutions developed our initial prototype and a full-fledged website. They also built out an API stack, the core engine that we would develop on the API staging side. We began by exchanging a working document. This included the main components of the prototype, the user flow, and the list of companies that would be connected to the platform.
Both their team and ours then had a brainstorming session where we drafted the initial proof of concept (POC). They also helped us with the architecture and design. It was a collaborative process. We did the prototyping and it’s been live for the last six months.
Our current strategy as a company is to run any new product and innovation through a POC with Wednesday Solutions and stabilize the product. Once stabilized, the product will be handed over to our core team, who will make sure the machine runs and takes backend support from Wednesday Solutions. Anything new that needs to be dealt with quickly is something that Wednesday Solutions will help us out with.
What is the team composition?
The team assigned to our project has seven people in total. We work with a tech lead and a mix of senior to junior engineers. Their co-founder also watches our projects closely.
How did you come to work with Wednesday Solutions?
The co-founder used to be a senior engineer at the previous company I worked at.
How much have you invested with them?
We spent around 25 lakhs INR (approximately $33,000 USD).
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with them around July 2021 and we see them as a continuous partner. Our product roadmap for the next four years is completely full and we will require their help for the foreseeable future.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
This process is ongoing and we’re in a state of continuous development. All the milestones that have been promised are being delivered by Wednesday Solutions. They score very well in terms of the scalability, stability, and security of what they build.
The prototype is only available for certain clients, and our partners tell us that everything works, with downtimes being managed in a sequenced manner. The partners are very happy with the product.
How did Wednesday Solutions perform from a project management standpoint?
Wednesday Solution’s team is very methodical in their approach. They have a unique style of working. We are all on a common Slack channel, which has the engineering and design channels integrated into it. Wednesday Solutions has also opened a GitHub library and a GitHub account for us.
As per our contract, everything is going to be built and then handed over to us along with the documentation, which is what they have been periodically doing. This collaborative approach gives us 100% transparency on what is happening on a daily and hourly basis. We feel like they are an extension of our team.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Their in-depth knowledge of technology and software is impressive. They never stray from the fundamentals of building a software stack, and they always make sure to think through and document every step.
Their understanding of architecture is also very high. I've worked with Google teams and Motorola teams, and Wednesday Solutions at their level. Their approach to software development is among the best in the industry.
Are there any areas they could improve?
They could negotiate more in terms of setting deadlines. They tend to always agree with their clients, which is good for us, but it causes them to take on a lot of work and push themselves really hard. This practice might hurt them in the long run.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Have a very thorough technical person on your side who understands their language and allow that person to interface with Wednesday Solutions on a daily basis. The team will take care of the rest if they can communicate with someone who comes from a tech background.
