Aryavrat Infotech Inc.

Please describe your company, your role, and the industry you operate in.

Southern Cross Technology is a Logistics & Supply Chain business based in Sydney, Australia. As Chief Digital Officer, I own the technology strategy and vendor relationships. Every spending decision gets evaluated against a concrete business case — we do not invest in technology for its own sake.

What specific problem or business challenge led you to hire this company?

Our Game Development capability had become the bottleneck for everything. Feature requests, client requirements, internal initiatives — all of them were queuing behind a platform we had patched past its design limits. We needed a proper rebuild.

What services did the company provide for your project?

Primarily Game Development, with QA and solution architecture included in scope. They owned the build end-to-end from requirements through to go-live, including three existing system integrations. Not needing to coordinate separate QA or architecture vendors was genuinely valuable.

Why did you choose this company over other providers you considered?

We shortlisted five vendors. Two were eliminated immediately based on the technical proposals. Of the remaining three, this team's Game Development approach was the most specific and evidenced — actual Logistics & Supply Chain reference cases, not generic slides. The reference calls confirmed what the proposal described.

How clearly did the company understand your requirements and business goals?

Honestly, better than we understood them ourselves going in. The workshops they ran surfaced assumptions we had not examined and caught three requirements that were in direct conflict with each other. Resolving those before development started saved us a significant amount of rework.

How was your overall experience with their communication and project management?

Very strong on the async side, which mattered given the time difference between Sydney, Australia and the delivery team. Written updates were specific and consistent, decisions got responses the same day, and nothing was dropped across a five-month engagement. That discipline is harder than it looks.

Did the company deliver the project on time and within your expected budget?

On time and on budget. The estimation accuracy was the part I found most impressive — they had broken the work down thoroughly enough during discovery that the forecast held throughout rather than drifting with every scope conversation. We had one change request, and it was for scope we had added ourselves.

What tangible results or business impact have you seen since the project was completed?

We went live six weeks ago so it is early. The launch was clean, adoption is tracking ahead of plan, and the first client demo of the new platform generated a positive reaction we had not seen for the previous version. Ask me again in six months and I will have better numbers.

What did you like most about working with this company?

The fact that problems surfaced upward before they became crises. I have worked on enough vendor engagements to know that the ability to manage upward — to raise bad news early rather than bury it — is genuinely rare. This team did it consistently.

Would you recommend this company to others, and would you work with them again?

Yes, with the caveat that they are not the cheapest option and they are selective about what they take on. If price is the primary criterion there are alternatives. If you want a Game Development partner in the Logistics & Supply Chain space who will actually deliver against a serious brief, this is the team.

Please describe your company, your role, and the industry you operate in.

I am the Senior Engineering Manager at Karachi Tech Solutions, a Legal Services company headquartered in Karachi, Pakistan. My role covers product, platform, and the vendor partnerships that support them. We had reached a point where our internal team could not execute our roadmap fast enough without outside help.

What specific problem or business challenge led you to hire this company?

Compliance requirements in our Legal Services space changed and the deadline was set by our regulator, not by us. The AR/VR Development work required was specialist enough that pulling our internal team off the product roadmap to do it was not an option.

What services did the company provide for your project?

End-to-end AR/VR Development delivery with particular focus on the data migration and integration workstreams, which carried the highest project risk. A dedicated QA resource was embedded throughout development and they left us with a proper operations runbook at handover.

Why did you choose this company over other providers you considered?

We shortlisted five vendors. Two were eliminated immediately based on the technical proposals. Of the remaining three, this team's AR/VR Development approach was the most specific and evidenced — actual Legal Services reference cases, not generic slides. The reference calls confirmed what the proposal described.

How clearly did the company understand your requirements and business goals?

The requirements process took longer than we expected but the thoroughness showed in the development phase — we had noticeably fewer mid-sprint clarifications and no major requirement changes that required rework.

How was your overall experience with their communication and project management?

Communication was proactive and well-calibrated. Technical detail for the engineering audience, executive summaries for the steering group, and risks raised with proposed mitigations rather than just problem statements. The fortnightly sprint reviews kept our stakeholders informed without pulling them into every working session.

Did the company deliver the project on time and within your expected budget?

Yes on both. There was one sprint where a third-party API dependency introduced a one-week slip. They flagged it three weeks before it became critical, presented two options, and we agreed on one that recovered the timeline within the same sprint. That kind of foresight is the difference between good and average project management.

What tangible results or business impact have you seen since the project was completed?

Hard to isolate perfectly given other business variables, but the metrics attributable to the AR/VR Development work are meaningful — session time up, conversion up, error rate down, NPS for the digital channel improved by double digits. Account managers say it is coming up positively in client conversations for the first time.

What did you like most about working with this company?

Team continuity. The engineers who ran the discovery sessions built the system. That consistency over a five-month engagement is valuable in ways that are hard to articulate until you have worked on projects where it was absent. Every conversation built on the previous ones.

Would you recommend this company to others, and would you work with them again?

Yes, without reservation. I have already referred two peers in the Legal Services sector who were facing similar AR/VR Development challenges. I gave those referrals confidently because I know the experience I described was not a one-off — it reflects how they work.

Please describe your company, your role, and the industry you operate in.

Northumbria FinTech Ltd operates in the Telecommunications sector out of Edinburgh, UK. In my role as Chief Technology Officer I am responsible for both the technology strategy and day-to-day delivery. We hold our vendors to the same standards our clients hold us to.

What specific problem or business challenge led you to hire this company?

Our E-commerce Development capability had become the bottleneck for everything. Feature requests, client requirements, internal initiatives — all of them were queuing behind a platform we had patched past its design limits. We needed a proper rebuild.

What services did the company provide for your project?

End-to-end E-commerce Development delivery with particular focus on the data migration and integration workstreams, which carried the highest project risk. A dedicated QA resource was embedded throughout development and they left us with a proper operations runbook at handover.

Why did you choose this company over other providers you considered?

We shortlisted five vendors. Two were eliminated immediately based on the technical proposals. Of the remaining three, this team's E-commerce Development approach was the most specific and evidenced — actual Telecommunications reference cases, not generic slides. The reference calls confirmed what the proposal described.

How clearly did the company understand your requirements and business goals?

The requirements process took longer than we expected but the thoroughness showed in the development phase — we had noticeably fewer mid-sprint clarifications and no major requirement changes that required rework.

How was your overall experience with their communication and project management?

Good. The sprint cadence worked well for our team. Fortnightly reviews gave us the checkpoints we needed. The one friction point — time zone overlap — was resolved after the first sprint and did not reoccur.

Did the company deliver the project on time and within your expected budget?

On time. Budget was within the approved ceiling, including one scope addition we introduced mid-project that was quoted fairly and handled in parallel without affecting the main delivery stream. No surprises at invoice stage.

What tangible results or business impact have you seen since the project was completed?

Hard to isolate perfectly given other business variables, but the metrics attributable to the E-commerce Development work are meaningful — session time up, conversion up, error rate down, NPS for the digital channel improved by double digits. Account managers say it is coming up positively in client conversations for the first time.

What did you like most about working with this company?

The post-launch engagement. Some vendors treat go-live as the end of their obligation. This team treated it as a transition to a different kind of engagement. Hypercare was substantive, documentation was genuinely useful, and they checked in proactively at thirty and ninety days.

Would you recommend this company to others, and would you work with them again?

Absolutely. We are scoping a second engagement and I expect this to become a multi-year partnership. For anyone in the Telecommunications space looking for serious E-commerce Development delivery, I would put them at the top of the evaluation list.

Please describe your company, your role, and the industry you operate in.

As Chief Technology Officer at Falcon Digital Ventures, a Events & Event Management organisation in Dubai, UAE, I manage technology investment and delivery outcomes. We make commercial decisions about technology — every project needs a credible case before it gets approved.

What specific problem or business challenge led you to hire this company?

Our previous vendor had left us with three years of accumulated technical debt. Delivery velocity had dropped to maybe a third of what it should have been. We needed new engineering eyes and a structured plan to dig out.

What services did the company provide for your project?

Full CRM Development lifecycle — discovery, architecture, development across ten sprints, integration testing, performance validation, production deployment, and a four-week hypercare period. They also produced system documentation and ran structured knowledge transfer sessions for our team.

Why did you choose this company over other providers you considered?

We had been through a failed engagement the year before and took vendor selection seriously this time. We asked specific questions about how they handle scope change, estimate work, and communicate problems. The answers were consistent across everyone we spoke to, which suggested the process was real rather than sales-trained.

How clearly did the company understand your requirements and business goals?

Thoroughly. The requirements document they produced was detailed enough that our QA team used it directly to write acceptance criteria. Every story had a defined business outcome attached. Nothing was left to interpretation, which paid dividends all the way through to testing.

How was your overall experience with their communication and project management?

Communication was proactive and well-calibrated. Technical detail for the engineering audience, executive summaries for the steering group, and risks raised with proposed mitigations rather than just problem statements. The fortnightly sprint reviews kept our stakeholders informed without pulling them into every working session.
