"Thanks and well done"

"My website was down for about a day and I needed to find somebody to help me get it back online. I happened to exchange some emails a year ago with the CTO of Agriya. I called their Skype number hoping somebody would answer because I couldn't afford another day with my website down. As soon as they answered my call they were extremely helpful. They understood my frustration and began working right away, and continuously updated me on their progress via Skype. Within two hours I had my website up and running. They really save my day. I am grateful and cannot recommend their services enough."

"Agriya have been great. They have been very prompt with deadlines, all the while offering a cost effective and quality service, for all of my projects."

"I've worked with a ton of development agencies, and Agriya, is certainly the best I've worked with when you consider cost vs. quality of service, and I will continue to work with them on other projects (after doing a 6 month contract with them).

Things they do really well:
1. help you think through the best way to achieve your goals, and give technical advice, rather than blindly coding whatever you ask for
2. Excellent communication around progress of the project, and always available to discuss in depth
3. Delivering on time. I cant stress how important/rare it is to find this.

Things to consider
1. They have solid design skills, but if you are a designer yourself, you'll want to provide them with designs
2. Occasionally things do not come back exactly as designed, but they are happy to make fixes to these. Just like with any employee, or agency, you'll want to review the work when finished.

Again, very happy with the quality of work for the price."

"Project summary:

The client is a Singapore-based online fashion retailer focusing on distribution through e-commerce. Due to limited resources and capabilities, the client sought a qualified offshore development to support their custom development initiatives. Agriya was one of a handful of potential offshore developers to receive an inquiry from the client, and they were selected as the solution partner based on their previous experience and demonstrated technical capabilities. Once commissioned, Agriya began to collaborate closely with the client on their custom development work, which involved the following: User requirements gathering, project scoping, data preparation and migration, custom functional development, information architecture, systems integration and configuration, user interface/user experience and performance testing, training and support.
Feedback summary:

The client expressed great satisfaction for the work delivered by Agriya. According to the client, Agriya remains instrumental to their ongoing development endeavors. The client indicated that Agriya has been uniquely capable of delivered high-quality code on a consistent basis. Agriya received additional praise for their flexibility and responsiveness. The client maintains an ongoing relationship with Agriya and recommends them to others.

BACKGROUND

Could you briefly describe your organization?

I run a small startup focused on fashion retail through e-commerce.

You're the founder?

Yes, I am.

OPPORTUNITY/CHALLENGE

Could you describe the business challenges that you were attempting to address when you first approached Agriya?

I needed additional technical support to help me add custom features and clean up the code of an existing website. I didn't have the necessary skills or resources to handle the scope of work by myself.

SOLUTION

How did you select Agriya as your partner?

I found them through online research. I contacted them and a few other companies with my project, and I felt confident after talking with them that they could handle this work.

Could you describe the scope of their involvement in greater detail?

I handled all of the strategy and design work, and provided them with specifications. They dealt with all of the technical development. That included custom development using CSS, HTML, and JavaScript on the client side, and PHP, using Cake PHP, on the server side. They also did all of the unit and performance testing for me.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

In terms of results, could you share any statistics, metrics, or user feedback that would demonstrate the quality of their performance?

I've worked with a ton of development agencies, and Agriya, is certainly the best I've worked with when you consider cost vs. quality of service, and I will continue to work with them on other projects after doing a six-month contract with them. The code they write is very high quality, and I've rarely experienced issues with flawed code. I've been very impressed by that.

When working with Agriya, is there anything you'd consider unique about their strategic approach or development methodology that distinguish them from other vendors?

I really like that they help you think through the best way to achieve your goals, and give technical advice, rather than blindly coding whatever you ask for. They also have excellent communication around the progress of your project, and they're always available to discuss things in-depth with you. Finally, they always manage to delivering on time. I can't stress how important and rare it is to find that from a vendor, especially offshore providers.

In retrospect, are there areas in which you think they could improve as a service provider?

They have solid technical development skills, but if you're a designer yourself, you'll definitely want to provide them with designs collateral. Occasionally, designs do not come back exactly as specified, but they're happy to make fixes to these. Just like with any employee or agency, you'll want to review the work when finished.

We have five additional questions. For each of these, we ask that you rate Agriya on a scale of one to five, with five being the best score. How would you rate them for the quality of work that they've delivered?

Four.

How would you rate them for scheduling, as in meeting deadlines and compliance with a project timeline?

Five. They're always on time with deliverables.

How would you rate them for cost, as in value and conformance with the original estimates?

Five.

How would you rate your overall experience collaborating with Agriya?

Five.

How likely are you to recommend them to a friend or colleague, out of five?

Five."

"Project summary:

The client is a small American firm. There was a need to find an outsource partner for development. Agriya was selected to handle one project. The project was completed.

Feedback summary:

The client is satisfied with the work produced by Agriya. They are a good firm to work with and produce quality work. The only complaints are that the project was delayed. Agriya is recommended to others.

“The quality of work is excellent; top notch”
RESULTS & FEEDBACK:

Overall, Agriya is a good company. I've had them do a couple of customizations for our company, and the quality of work is excellent; top notch. Even with complex projects, Agriya can get the job done, they've proven that.

For deadlines, they missed a couple, and they met the rest. It's no big deal, you have to remember, you're in development mode. For those who know programming and writing code, sometimes it can take a while, depending on the complexity.

Will we use Agriya again? Definitely. Would we recommend Agriya to others? Definitely."

"Project summary:

The client is an online marketing company in Iran that serves business-to-business clients. There was a need to develop many Web platforms for online marketing campaigns. Agriya was selected to provide coding services for several programming languages. The work was completed in August of 2014.
Feedback summary:

The client is extremely satisfied with the work delivered by Agriya. They produce good quality work and have great account managers. There are no complaints to report, but the client mentions to be clear with requirements before starting work with Agriya. Agriya is highly recommended to others.

BACKGROUND

We are a company in Iran that deals with online marketing and online advertising.

OPPORTUNITY/CHALLENGE

We needed help from Agriya to put together a professional campaign that would give our clients the best chance to make money and capture quality leads.

SOLUTION

The development involved PHP, MySql, Js, HTML, CSS, and Ajax. They were primarily responsible for backend development and not design or other types of work.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

If you discuss all of the details for a simple project, then Agriya can handle it easily. I suggest for complicated projects, to think through the details. It is better to plan everything first before diving in headfirst. Marketing initiatives and development projects take a ton of work and should be planned extensively before starting the work.

Agriya did a great job on the project. They have great client relationship managers and provide good service. If you prepare a proper scope of work and clearly articulate your requirements, Agriya will do a great job."

"I would absolutely recommend Agriya web development company to anyone.Web development require patience,ones you give this,its %100 sure that you can get the success.About agriya,i would like to share my experience,their understanding of web development is very unique.i am so happy that i choose them for my sites,when ever i need help,they were always there.....Thanks to them and thanks to AGRIYA team....i can say,they the world best web development company."

"Quality Freelancer. Will Definitely Hire Again!"

"Thank you for a job well done"

"Paying the second milestone. So far - very good work and cooperation."

"Agriya and team helped me build a payment system , and I am extremely happy with their work. I would definitely use them in the future and would also recommend to others."

"Excellent knowledge level and work. Great communication, easy to contact and completed with efficiency."

"I was in the process of researching some key players and potential vendors when I came across Agriya through a media outlet. I reached out to them and sent our statement of work. They came back to us with a pretty compelling proposal. We decided to have them introduce themselves to us and demonstrate some of their relevant capabilities. I was impressed by what they had in mind, and it was made very clear to me that they had some great development talent on their team. As an offshore vendor, I have to admit that their ability to understand our business requirements was definitely superior to many of their counterparts. I was impressed with their level of understanding and the fact that they were able to provide us with valuable insights. From time to time, we’d approach them with a task, and they would provide strategic recommendations on how to improve our process better or refine our project specifications. That isn’t something I was used to having with an offshore technology partner, especially from India."

"Project summary:

The client is an online staffing agency that helps small- and medium-sized businesses find the professional freelancers. The client needed a technology partner to redesign their primary website and provide digital marketing services. Agriya was one of several potential vendors to receive a request for proposal from the client, and they were selected as the solution partner due to their demonstrated capabilities. Once commissioned, Agriya was responsible for the complete website redesign, which involved requirements gathering, project scoping, wireframing and template deployment, custom backend development, data preparation and migration, systems integration, UI/UX and performance testing, and ongoing support.

Feedback summary:

The client remains quite pleased with the work delivered by Agriya. According to the client, their successfully deployed website generates more than three times the traffic of their previous site. The client also indicated that the website has received overwhelmingly positive feedback from its end-users. The client maintains an ongoing relationship with Agriya and recommends them to others.

“I was impressed with their level of understanding and the fact that they were able to provide us with valuable insights.”

BACKGROUND

Could you briefly describe your company?

I work for a startup based in Brazil. We’ve decided to create an online marketplace for freelancers similar to oDesk. We created a marketplace of professionals able to cover small business needs and the needs of various freelancers.

What is your position?

I’m the CEO of the company. I’m in charge of leading the business.

OPPORTUNITY/CHALLENGE

Could you describe the business challenges you were attempting to address when you began the relationship with Agriya?

The major challenge that we faced back in 2012 was to trying to find a technology partner because we’ve had to enter the marketplace with a very lean organizational structure. Our initial plan was to have a third-party function as our technology department. We just couldn’t afford to have our own developers in-house

SOLUTION

How did you select Agriya as your partner?

I was in the process of researching some key players and potential vendors when I came across Agriya through a media outlet. I reached out to them and sent our statement of work. They came back to us with a pretty compelling proposal. We decided to have them introduce themselves to us and demonstrate some of their relevant capabilities. I was impressed by what they had in mind, and it was made very clear to me that they had some great development talent on their team.

Could you describe the scope of the project? For instance, did it involve custom visual design, backend development, training, or support?

Their team was primarily responsible for custom development work, some basic visual design, and integrations and data migrations. The extent of their involvement really depended on the nature of the task at hand. They’ve helped us deploy our frontend interface and organize our information in an easy and intuitive manner. They’ve also dealt with a significant amount of data preparation and migration work with our backend systems.

Could you provide a sense of the size of this project in monetary terms?

I would say that we’ve spent between $20,000 and $25,000 on their services.

When was the most recent project completed?

We recently completed a project with them in March [of 2014].

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

In terms of results, could you share any statistics, metrics, or user feedback that would demonstrate the effectiveness of the work they’ve delivered?

We started at the very beginning. Six months after launching our website, we reached almost 1,000 registered freelancers. Three months later, at nine months from launch, we reached around 2,000 freelancers. Once we released our new customization tools, we reached almost 4,000 freelancers. The majority of that growth is linked to the new designs we implemented, which made the software more clear and more user friendly to the users.

When working with Agriya, is there anything you’d consider special or unique about their approach or development methodology that distinguishes them from other vendors with which you’ve worked?

As an offshore vendor, I have to admit that their ability to understand our business requirements was definitely superior to many of their counterparts. I was impressed with their level of understanding and the fact that they were able to provide us with valuable insights. From time to time, we’d approach them with a task, and they would provide strategic recommendations on how to improve our process better or refine our project specifications. That isn’t something I was used to having with an offshore technology partner, especially from India.

We have five additional questions. For each of these, we ask that you rate Agriya on a scale of one to five, with five being the best. How would you rate them for the quality of work delivered?

Four and a half.

How would you rate them for scheduling, as in meeting deadlines and compliance with the project timeline?

Five.

How would you rate them for cost, as in value for your money and/or conformance with the original estimates?

Four and a half.

Details:

BACKGROUND

I am a social entrepreneur out of the Boston area building a Tech Ed site with a limited budget and time.

OPPORTUNITY/CHALLENGE

This is the second version of my site. We are currently working on the second prototype. I needed someone who was flexible to work on it and improve the performance.

SOLUTION

My business is shifting from one industry to another. I want to provide a website for users who want to gain knowledge about various educational topics. I work with Agriya on Web development for this site. I plan to work with them for at least the next year on this project.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

I worked closely with Agriya during the last six months and am very impressed with their expertise and level of service. Through building my prototypes, they showed the ability to work with my business's unique requirements effectively and followed through with their commitments. My project is now moving from building prototypes to building the actual product. I am very much looking forward to working with Agriya on a long-term basis.

I have no complaints. I should have done more research before the project about Web design and development, but that is not Agriya's fault."

"I recently used Agriya for a strategic banking and finance project. I found the service excellent and will be looking to use their services for future projects.

The project was delivered to a high standard within schedule and budget. Customer service throughout was perfect.

Thanks for all your help and look forward to future relations."

"Thanks for the support! Sometimes it can be tricky getting a dev environment setup on a new system. Thanks for helping us get through some of the issues!"

"Solid work from Agriya across the board. Their communication and quality of work are exceptional. I'm looking forward to working with them again!"

"Good work in overall. Quality service provider. I would not worry to hire them again. Recommended."

"Good experience in overall. Some things could be better, for example speed could be improved, but even when it takes little longer, they finish it, so i guess that is most important. They are legit and try to finish project until your satisfaction, so i appreciate this. If there would be % rating, i would rate something about 85%. You will not make mistake with hiring them, you just need to describe your project in details and also the time frames should be described as well. Than you should be satisfied. They are not scammers, so i think this is most important these days... I recommend them"
