SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

The reason I selected this vendor was because of the professionalism and expertise. They found us through LinkedIn, which made them stand out from the rest. For a company that had only been in business for two years, I must say they were extremely well equipped. They were responsive to all the questions that I had and were ready to help me in any way they could. This showed that they were well experienced to deal with clients.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

I have been working with this company for more than a year now. I have been working with them for three major projects, starting in February 2015. We worked together on a project that involved scraping data on their website and processing it with python and pandas. After two months of development, the project was completed and delivered. The second project was to scrape, process and archive data from their website in a local database. The third and final project we worked together on was to build a custom generator where users could enter data, and output a spreadsheet.

Now I work with them on a regular basis to add new features to their generator. I have done all of this work remotely, as I am in Bangladesh. They found me on LinkedIn, and I have worked with them remotely, with communication primarily through Skype.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

Communication is one of the biggest keys to success in any project, and the development world is no different. You need to be able to effectively communicate with the development team, your clients, and other stakeholders. You should have guidelines for when and how to communicate with your team and what to say. You should have written and well-understood documentation for your team, your clients, and other stakeholders. Many developers love to communicate, but what do you communicate about? How often do you communicate? How do you communicate? All of these questions are important.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

I like the way they are able to focus and deliver on their core competencies while keeping themselves away from distractions. They were able to maintain the quality of work even with increasing their hiring scale. This gives them a definite edge over competition.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

We would have told them not to enter any partnership agreements. We would have recommended them to own their channels rather than let someone else use their name and build the audience for them. We would have told them to not give away their rights for future ideas and content. We would have told them to be patient and stay away from any really cheap offers and instead build their own brand using quality organic growth methods. We would have told them to increase their video views. We would have told them to optimize their website for search engines and their YouTube channel for rendering on mobile devices.
