"The project was managed effectively via the use of a freelance platform."
May 04, 2020
The Review
Feedback summary:
Whizpool successfully completed the project. It was managed effectively. Communication and the ability to translate the project into designs were excellent.
Please describe your company and your position there.
We consult and deliver microtechnology solutions for enterprises in North America and Africa.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Whizpool?
I consulted Whizpool for a cloud-enabled multi-tenant microservice architecture using AWS.
What were your goals for this project?
The goal of the project was to develop a multi-tenant user authentication that can be used to manage multiple businesses. Particularly, with the use of strict technologies such as NodeJS, AWS, Cognito, Express, and Lambda.
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor?
The project is somewhat unique because it has never been done before. However, I know it is possible based on my architectural design. I selected Whizpool after I carefully analyzed some of the bids I received. Whizpool was very responsive, confident and provided a very good approach on how the design will be implemented without charges.
Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.
As previously mentioned, the goal of the project was to develop a multi-tenant user authentication that can be used to manage multiple businesses. Particularly, with the use of strict technologies such as NodeJS, AWS, Cognito, Express, and Lambda. Whizpool was to confirm if the Architectural design was possible with the given restrictions on the use of technology. After that, the application was developed. Some of the specific services we requested was all cloud based API end points that communicate withe external applications using API keys. Overall, design and development met expectations.
What was the team composition?
Whizpool has a team of 6 web developers and 7 app developer, which was sufficient enough to create an outstanding project.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?
We are still in beta and a lot of activities is currently being carried out along the project. We should be able to see the impact soon.
How was project management arranged and how effective was it?
The project was managed effectively via the use of a freelance platform. Money were initially placed in an escrow and released based on different milestones. Communications were also done entirely via the platform, although some were done through hangout and live chat but must conversations especially design requirements, explanations and further enhancement were carried out on the platform
What did you find most impressive about this company?
Communication. The ability to comprehend thoughts, design, and translate it into code is one thing I was extremely happy and satisfied with working with Whizpool.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Presently, I have no areas which I would like them to improve on as they have met most of my expectations. However, maybe it will be nice to actually engage some of the developers directly but I guess this might not be part of their business policy.

"These guys always go above and beyond to make sure the customer is happy."
Mar 28, 2020
The Review
Feedback summary:
The app has been successfully used for months, and it aligns with all requirements. The team excelled at resolving any issues that arose. They are a dedicated, accommodating team that maintains consistent communication.
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the owner of a software development company. We over web-based HR/Time & Billing/Inventory Management software.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Whizpool?
We hired them to create a mobile app (iOS and Android) to integrate with our web based software package.
What were your goals for this project?
Our goals were to make a relatively simple looking app that had plenty of functionality happening behind the scenes. We also wanted to find a company that we could build a relationship with and continue to use over time.
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor?
Whizpool was recommended by a vendor of ours as they had used them and were very happy with the service and product.
Describe the project in detail.
The app is used to integrate with our existing web based platform. The app authenticates the users to our system and then allows them to enroll via selfie on their device. Once enrolled, they are able to then use their device to clock in and out of work. When they clock in and out a selfie is taken and facial recognition is used to confirm it is the correct staff member as well as a GPS stamp is recorded to see where the clock in/out took place.
What was the team composition?
Whizpool has a full team of dev guys but I worked very closely with Zeeshan to define the project scope. Once the scope was defined I worked with 3 different people (Graphic design, iOS and Android Dev Leads).
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The app has been used for many months now and does exactly what we require. The team was great at resolving bugs that we found during the testing phase and also assisted in resolving integrating issues which was above and beyond the scope of the project.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
The team was great. There is a time difference between my location and theirs but we got into a good schedule of having a daily catchup meeting to report any issues.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
These guys always go above and beyond to make sure the customer is happy. I know we went over budget with the amount of hours that was meant to be spent due to integration to our system (which the Whizpool team could never have expected these issues) but they kept working to make sure they delivered what they promised.
Whizpool developed a web and mobile app for an online marketplace and business promotion company. The team built both an iOS and Android version of the mobile platform.

"Whizpool demonstrated real customer service. Their ability to work with our on-shore team was excellent."
Mar 11, 2020
The Review
Feedback summary:
Both the web and mobile apps have gained a regular user base and online popularity. Whizpool establishes a system of project management to ensure that the project remains on track. The team is technically knowledgeable, hard-working, and timely.
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the Technical Director at Milestones Technology Group and consulting CTO at a Tech Startup based in Australia. Back in 2013, the Founders came up with a great idea to create a free global platform that provides businesses & individuals a platform to buy/sell/rent and promote their business for free.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Whizpool?
We hired Whizpool after a global search for an offshore development partner as the startup was bootstrapped and had a need to keep costs low.
What were your goals for this project?
Develop mobile apps for iOS, Android and a Web App based on HTMP & PHP as well as an Admin Panel that would allow minimal resources to manage the users and data. The application had to use industry best practice for development standards, employ source code management practices and ensure that all three applications (iOS, Android and Web) functionality was consistent.
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor?
We started the search by placing an Ad for a global project on a number of sub-contractor marketplaces. We received numerous responses. These were shortlisted into 3 key suppliers with Whizpool being one of them. Based on a very clear set of selection criteria, Whizpool came ahead and we commenced with Whizpool with a small development to verify their technical skills as well as their communication skills and the ability to work with off-shore clients.
Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.
Whizpool created the application architecture and developed all three platforms as requested. Once the project was completed, they have since continued to provide enhancement services and support.
What was the team composition?
The initial project team were comprised of 2 iOS developers, 2 Android Developers, 2 Web/API Developers, 1 QA/Tester and 1 Designer.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?
The Application was launched in 2016 and has since gained worldwide popularity with a growing user base. From the initial launch a number of enhancements have been made to the product and Whizpool were key to the delivery of these.
How was project management arranged and how effective was it?
The project was managed from Australia with a local PM within Whizpool managing the local team. Regular Skype meetings and project reviews ensured that the project remained on track and any variations and scope changes were identified early.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
Whizpool demonstrated real customer service. Their ability to work with our on-shore team was excellent. Regular meetings (voice & chat) over Skype ensured that the team worked closely with a healthy respect for each other culture, roles and responsibilities. We found Whizpool to be always available and the CEO played a hands-on role in ensuring that the project was delivered to a high quality and standard.
Are there any areas for improvement?
I believe Whizpool has a great pool of resources and is proficient in working with off-shore teams. They could consider hiring some experienced project managers to free up the CEO on other business development activities.
5.0
Overall ScoreThere are few off-shore developers that I would rate a 5. Whizpool deserve this.

Describe the project in detail.
On both projects. We started with a detailed wire-frame for our app concept. Later we got engaged in many meetings and discussions to confirm the deliver of our concepts. We use Jira system to monitor the actual progress of Whizpool team task delivery, and they kept us informed during the project about progress.
What was the team composition?
The usual Whizpool team structure for our two projects were, Web developer, ios developer, Android developer, QA and graphic design. In addition to network manager on one project.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
We had smooth launch for both projects, with few bug issues. Whizpool team were quick to fix. For the discount platform: since launch we continued to grow user base and usage. During first 4 months of launch we collected valuable insights to develop our 2nd stage of the app, which we are launching in Q1 2020.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
We use Jira system for managing the project. Where we post all details of project tasks and can monitor Whizpool progress on each task. We use Skype for instant communication on the project. Whizpool response was very fast, either for answering or acknowledging the receipt of request with expected answer time. Which I found very professional and satisfactory.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
I really highly value the technical expertise and "ability to learn" new challenging tasks. For example, in the chat project. We needed to develop the core system in XMPP language, which is used by very few. Whizpool did not use XMPP before, but accepted the challenge to learn a new alien language and developed a complete system in few months. Other things I highly value is the trusting and good team work culture.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Although Whizpool is very resourceful and talented. But I wish they have a network of third party suppliers for some specific tasks. Either to subcontract via Whizpool or to handle directly. Example, for professional copy-writing and translation of English to Arabic.
