Feedback summary: 

The plugins moved the pilot site closer to launch. Z-Wolves was highly communicative and produced daily status reports, which increased transparency and trust. Their deep level of engagement, despite the project’s smaller size, made them stand out and enhanced the possibility of future work.

The client submitted this review online.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the owner of Max Media BV, a video production company that specializes in the pharmaceutical and e-learning industries.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Z-Wolves Development?

We created an online platform to host interactive videos, and we were looking for a programmer to make some changes to existing plugins, or to develop new plugins, to help us produce a pilot site.

What were your goals for this project?

We believe that people can learn better, easier, and with more fun when using videos, instead of with traditional, text-based e-learning. We were busy developing a pilot test site and we weren’t able to overcome certain downsides of existing plugins. We needed a rock-solid site with easy to use video content and a clean looking plugin that produced certificates.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

After placing a message on LinkedIn, Z-Wolves contacted me and asked if we were thinking of outsourcing the project. Normally, we’d hire a Dutch company, but I had a good feeling Z-Wolves knowledge, and they were very persistent. Their pricing was very good and their estimated production time was very short.

Can you go into detail about the services they provided and the scope of the project?

Z-Wolves developed two plugins for us. The first one is a plugin that tweaks the existing video player so it’s usable for our needs. The second one produces a PDF on a part of the page and involved creating stylesheets. They worked in PHP and HTML5.

What was the team composition?

We had one main point of contact who was in charge of communication, and then we also worked with a programmer.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?

It is not clear if the project we're working on is a game-changer for us. That’s why we started with a pilot.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

They communicated very well and their English was perfect, so there were no huge miscommunications or language problems. We received a daily report from their programmer so I always knew exactly what our status was.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their communication was perfect, and we loved the way they took the project seriously, even though it was relatively small. The speed and skills of their programmer also stood out. Within a week we had everything we needed for the project.

Are there any areas where they can improve?

I actually can’t think of anything. When I need more programming magic I’ll surely contact them again.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the director at an online marketing agency.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Z-Wolves Development?

We worked with Z-Wolves Development to develop additional functionalities for existing websites.

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted to add features to an end-client’s Drupal 7.0 website and update the core code.

SOLUTION

Can you go into detail about the services they provided and the scope of the project?

Z-Wolves Development worked directly with the CMS in a formal staged development environment. The team worked with JavaScript, HTML, PHP, and CSS. They also did testing.

What was the team composition?

We worked with an account manager and a senior developer.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Overall, the results were excellent. The end-client discovered a bug—the result of lacking user testing—but Z-Wolves fixed the issue in short order. We didn’t have any complaints and would happily engage them again.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

The account manager was very effective. Their responses were thorough.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The team had great technical knowledge of the platform, but they were also willing to learn new technologies, particularly with the hosting provider.

Partnerships with an outsourcing company are learning experiences. Certain practices are not standard in every country and clients will need time to adjust to different conventions.
