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

Their quality of work, team diversity, and breadth of expertise were brilliant.

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

The only area for improvement we can suggest is speeding up development turnaround on smaller ammends and changes. Our project was extended by over a month due to final changes each taking over a week to complete. Internal testing could also be more thorough as we picked up lots of bugs and UI/UX amends with each new version which weren't caught by the internal team.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We have a clear, mutually agreed vision of what the MVP should look like and its various features and functionality. We are not measuring any particular figures, it's a lot more subjective, moving towards this vision.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Project management is good, with clear communication about the progress and what is to come. The project managers do a good job of relaying our feedback and ensuring it gets done. Items have been generally delivered around the right time, give or take a couple of weeks.

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

Good at understanding the heart of our product, what we are trying to achieve and thinking about problem solving alongside us to build the best possible product. Multiple members of the team have leaned in to bring new ideas and create a better product than we might've imagined.

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

Very happy with Codeleap, not much they could've done differently. They had a longer timeline than other agencies (which we knew when starting the work with them), which a small price to pay for the quality of the work. But would've been perfect if we could go faster.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with CodeLeap?

I needed help developing my mobile app.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

CodeLeap is helping us develop our iOS and Android mobile app based on our concept. I gave them a brief of what I wanted to achieve, and they took it from there.

Our matchmaking app idea was to give people quality matches over quantity and give users information about that person based on questions and answers that would provide them with an informed decision about whether they're going to swipe left or right.

What is the team composition?

I have two main points of contact from CodeLeap's team, but they also have a crew working behind the scenes in the app's development.

How did you come to work with CodeLeap?

A friend referred CodeLeap to me, and we chose them for our project because they understood what I was looking for. They also were able to give me a good price, which other providers couldn't.

How much have you invested with them?

So far, we've spent $15,000–$20,000 with them.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in December 2021, and the engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

CodeLeap adds so much value and goes above and beyond what I expect. They've also been great with the whole business side of things, and being able to forecast for this industry is really helpful. Overall, I'm completely satisfied with their work — they've been incredibly helpful.

How did CodeLeap perform from a project management standpoint?

CodeLeap's team is very flexible with all the different changes requests we've put in front of them. Regarding tools and communication, we use Slack and Figma.

What did you find most impressive about them?

CodeLeap has been extremely helpful and invested in our project.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I don't think there's anything they can improve on.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I highly recommend working with them.
