I have assigned several projects to OpenGeeksLab, starting from simple software to more complex large systems.
They managed to make me all the software as I expected, fast, performing, and with really high quality.
I appreciated how the development phase is managed, a project manager kept me informed for each state of progress, and involved me in all these projects to make the products according to my expectations.
I highly recommend for those who want to work with professionals and have top-level software.

No regrets – OpenGeeksLab is top class in every aspect
When we were recommended OpenGeeksLab, it soon became a duel in our decision – should we pick them or a Swedish company? Since we operate in Sweden, the easy answer would be the later, but from the start, we got a good feeling about OpenGeeksLab. They were clear, kept things simple and answered all our questions with honesty and knowledge. We decided to pick them and when the project was done, we had absolutely no regrets.
From the communication to the development, everything went on with quality and simplicity. They always showed a friendly side, but combined it with a perfect balance of straight-forwardness. OpenGeeksLab proved to be a skilled, technically gifted company that was easy to reach out for questions, clarifications, as well as additional functions, in which they clearly specified both the fee and what is included.
Also, they were a team who listened and talked – two key elements when developing a project – and they could see the bigger picture as well as the details. When a problem was located, they explained it and gave us options to pick the best alternative. The weekly meetings, the continuity and the flexibility are also important pieces of their puzzle.
All in all, we would therefore recommend OpenGeeksLab to everyone who wishes a partner with top class in every aspect. We haven't regretted picking them, not for a second, because they didn't give us any reason to.

Software development for a White Label Robo Advisory Solution B2B
I am the Product Manager at the company headquartered in Singapore that specializes in providing White Label Robo Advisory Solution for B2B to help them with financial planning for the end-users. As a company that has in-depth expertise in investment, we needed to find those ones who could understand the specific business logic, all the ins and outs. And openGeeksLab was exactly the team we needed to create a mobile app and a website with all the necessary features.
This is the third project we are working on with openGeeksLab. The team works transparently, within estimates and deadlines. They proved to be not only professionals but also partners and advisors.

Application for startup
I own a startup in office automation area. We hired openGeeksLab to build an app for one of our projects. They delivered professional service and quick turnarounds with updates. Beyond understanding how we wanted our application to function, they were able to recommend ways to improve some of our ideas. Despite the technical complexity of the app, the team managed to deliver the scoped cutting-edge features with the expected quality. We had a great experience working with them.

openGeeksLab created great applications for my craft business.
As it was my first product development experience, I was anxious about how it would go. But the company managed all the processes in such a way that I didn’t have to worry about anything.
I had only an idea for an eCommerce shop. The company did the rest of the work for me. At first, there was a project estimation. During the planning stage, we highlighted all the essential design and development points under my business goals. openGeeksLab developed the mobile and the web versions of the application. They considered all the necessary functions both for managers and end-users.
I am satisfied with the flow. Even though we were in different time zones, this didn’t cause any delays in the development.

I'm happy to work with the openGeeksLab team
Most of our team members have babies. Despite the feeling of boundless happiness, new parents are often confused. They don’t know how to cope with their toddlers. They don’t know how to monitor the health of newborns. So we came up with the idea of creating a special baby monitor. This healthcare device allows tracking vitals in real time while a toddler is sleeping.
We hired openGeeksLab to develop the mobile app for iOS and Android as well as the website for our project.

With openGeeksLab, I got the desired results.
On previous projects, I worked with different development companies. Unfortunately, the results didn't meet my expectations, and there were many complaints about their work. Therefore, I was looking for a team with deep technical expertise. The guys from openGeeksLab did the great work and took into account all my wishes.

What is it about the company that you appreciate the most?
After a bad experience of cooperation with other companies, I had some fear. But openGeeksLab has exceeded all expectations. The product manager provided all the necessary consultations and recommendations at the planning stage to optimize the development cycle.
The workflow allowed me to monitor development stages and track the time spent on each task. If necessary, we made adjustments. I was worried that the project estimation might differ at the planning stage and at the release stage. But the guys didn’t go beyond the previously agreed budget and deadline.
What was it about the company that you didn't like which they should do better?

Scope of work:
1. All the nuances of the project architecture were written from scratch.
2. The development and testing were done in repeated iterations so that we could add new features in every software development life cycle (SDLC).
3. Communication was conducted with the external software engineers engaged in the insurance industry, which helped to solve existing problems and successfully integrate new technological solutions.
4. There was constant sync with the customer's accounting software to generate invoices on-site. A counterparty risk assessment was made based on scores against each risk indicator. The insurance cost was calculated depending on the credit score. After the insurance purchase, the sync with the customer's accounting software continued. The invoice status was tracked, and payment confirmation was awaited. Once the payment was confirmed, the insurance policy was voided.
Description: Financial statement analysis software generates annual share prices, position in the industry, competitor evaluation, and other vital data reports for companies.
Tech stack:
• React .js
• TypeScript
• Redux
• redux-saga
• Bootstrap
• PHP

• MySQL
• Figma
Scope of work:
1. Our customers had an outdated system with a need to modernize it. OpenGeeksLab refreshed the old system using a modern tech stack and solutions.
2. We’ve improved the UI, making it more engaging and providing a competitive edge.
3. For this financial statement software solution, we used a Scrumban methodology to preserve and transport the correct functions from the old system to the updated one.
4. We implemented regression testing to ensure we’re on the same page with the client.
Description: This blockchain-based project pool consists of several solutions developed from scratch or modernized by our team. Among them are the following:
• ICO – this project had a faulty front end that didn’t show the needed data for the ICO functionality. It was supposed to show a certain number of tokens with fixed and random pricing (random pricing was generated from Oracle Chainlink).
• Mobile cryptocurrency wallet – it has SwappID and a simple rewards system. This wallet allows consumers to store and transfer cryptocurrencies and has an integrated decentralized exchange, referral program, and reward system for actions with Swapp Tokens.
• Browser extension – this extension allows or forbids websites from collecting your personal data. It collects and monetizes data, allowing users to sell their information to businesses for tokens.
• Token price prediction – smart contracts that allow users to bet on the pricing of crypto-currency.
• Marketplace – a smart contract that allows users to sell and buy NFT tokens.
• NFT collections – our team created several NFT collections for the customer. We created smart contracts, white papers, and mining interfaces.
• Multi-blockchain network lottery – we created a smart contract that generated a random number for lottery rounds from Oracle Chainlink. Users could buy endless tickets during the round and enter the number into the ticket.
• DEX on Cronos blockchain – we worked on the design for this project and released decentralized exchange (DEX) farming using Uniswapp smart contracts and interfaces.
Tech stack:
Frontend:
• React.js
• TypeScript
• Redux, redux-saga
Back-end:
• Node.js
• Nest.js

• The mobile cryptocurrency wallet app is released on App Store and Google Play with 10+K downloads.
• We implemented a mechanism of delayed transactions into the marketplace that enables users not to send their transaction to a blockchain network right after it is formed.
• The DEX farming allows liquidity providers to get additional rewards for staking LP tokens, aside from the share they got from each transaction.
Description: An on-demand moving app that would connect businesses and consumers with man & van services. A platform helps streamline all the processes as well as eliminate mix-ups while delivering items purchased online, moving to a new office/apartment, and hauling away old junk.

Description: Food and grocery, medicine, and cosmetics delivery and collection. Taxi services. The system consists of an admin panel for service operators, an application for customers, and an application for couriers (BTW, we are trendsetters – we deployed an approximate delivery time feature a few months before it appeared in Glovo).

2. The second stage took us around six months, during which we connected statistical graphics from a web to a mobile version of an app using the WebView tool.
3. We created online and offline versions of an app with a user-friendly design suitable for iOS, Android, and web platforms. Our responsibilities included front-end, back-end, and API implementation services.
Results: Our client chose a monthly subscription business model for this product monetization. It allowed them to have stable profits since the app turned out to be easy to navigate and highly functional. All features of golf apps for Android, iOS and the web fully meet the request of our customers.
Description: A streaming platform to combine game broadcasts, a social network for gamers and video-game enthusiasts, and a game of skill.

Description: A streaming eSports platform with gambling functionality powered up with tokens. The software has a highly efficient monetization model. It allows users to buy tokens for real money in the live-streaming web app and later bet, donate, or buy additional functionality using tokens.
Tech stack:
• React .js
• Node.js
• Ethereum
• Solidity
Results:
1. We’ve launched an ICO and developed a gaming platform from scratch independently. As an outcome of our solution, the customer has an opportunity to turn both tokens and their eSports streaming platform into two channels of profits.
2. We used the Scrumban methodology, which allowed us to coordinate each move with the business requirements of our customers. This flexibility provided us the opportunity to foresee the growth of the business, better relate to the target audience, and understand the market.
Description: An NFT collection that resembles aliens using the Ethereum blockchain. Each of those aliens is different in style and appearance, which makes tokens unique.

5. Is smooth and responsive.
Results: OpenGeeksLab presented an easy-to-use webpage for minting tokens and calculating profits from this venture with a user-friendly interface. It grants the end customers an understanding of their investment’s value beforehand.
Description: A DApp for creating NFT merch. It is a demo project that barely scratches the surface of what OpenGeeksLab could do.
Tech stack:
• Solidity
• Web3
• React.js
Scope of work:
1. At our company, our primary focus is on helping people see that cryptocurrency, blockchain, and other innovative technologies have the power to improve nearly any field. That's why we created our line of NFT clothing rather than going the traditional route with a fintech or logistics platform.
2. We built an easy-to-use interface and smart contract on Solidity.
3. OpenGeeksLab wrapped up this NFT merch application’s development in just three weeks.
4. AxentMerch has the potential to generate income from a variety of independent creators. These artists can sell their drawings, which are used as the basis for NFT tokens, on marketplaces, or as physical merchandise. Anytime their intellectual property is used, they will be compensated.
5. With our decentralized solution for clothes, consumers have the freedom to decide how they want to redeem their tokens.

4. OpenGeeksLab implemented an opportunity for customers to get advice on how to take care of themselves and their close ones.
Please introduce your company and give a brief about your role within the company?
I am the founder and the CEO of openGeeksLab. After years of work experience as a senior full-stack developer in several companies, I came up with an idea to create my own company that could assist everyone in providing specific solutions, not just core technologies. openGeeksLab performs a two-step development process. At the first (planning) stage, we always work at a fixed price because of a set amount of work. At the second stage, a client receives a roadmap and estimated costs for a project. We create a team that works according to the Time & Material model. This approach allows us to be flexible and reliable for customers. All payments are transparent at each stage of a development process, and clients can see on what he or she spends money.
What was the idea behind starting this organization?
openGeeksLab puts in priority quality of development and quality of service. Since the time I started working as a developer, I know all the ins and outs of IT companies. Other software companies have some common problems. I know these issues. Thanks to this experience, I founded openGeeksLab and provided such development workflow that allowed us to exclude all possible pitfalls. The idea behind starting our organization was to create the company with a human face and to create a place where people work comfortably—our ecosystem.
What is your company’s business model– an in-house team or third party vendors/ outsourcing?
openGeeksLab is an in-house team that has a flat organization structure. We solve all the issues as quickly as possible, and without bureaucracy. We are a team. Therefore, if project tasks require expert opinion, any team member responsible for the specific area helps to deal with them.
How is your business model beneficial from a value-added perspective to the clients compared to other companies' models?
Our approach to work is to identify and solve a client's pain points, make his or her idea a reality. It’s simple! A Team Lead, a QA Engineer, a Product Manager, and a Scrum Master are involved in a project. We start the development process with the planning stage; prepare a basis for action to avoid overtime and not to go beyond the budget. The main thing for us is that a customer sees the overall picture transparently. A client must be in touch within the first two weeks. We'll take care of the rest. A customer only receives daily reports on the work. At this time, he or she may be engaged in marketing, fundraising, etc.
What industries do you generally cater to? Are your customers repetitive? If yes, what ratio of clients has been repetitive to you?
openGeeksLab generally caters to healthcare business, entertainment, real estate management, fintech industry. 85% of clients are repetitive to us.
Mention the objectives or the parameters critical in determining the time frame of developing a mobile app.
We define the time frame of a mobile app development based on the planning stage results and the software architecture.
How much effort in terms of time goes into developing the front end and back end of a mobile app?
How much time goes into developing frontend and backend, depends on a mobile app complexity, its value proposition, features to be implemented, design. We are focused on long-term projects.
What are the key parameters to be considered before selecting the right platform for a mobile application?
We provide business solutions for cross-platform mobile app development on React Native. I bet you know that such giants as Facebook and Instagram are built with this framework. openGeeksLab’s members have 10+ years’ experience in JavaScript and started to work with React Native from its beta version. Our experts also know native languages.
Which platform do you suggest your clients, to begin with when they approach you with an idea (Android or iOS) and why?
We create apps for both Android and iOS platforms at once. And that’s the beauty of React Native. It’s worth mentioning that the framework allows shortening the development process 1.8 times. As a result, our customers reduce costs by achieving the same high quality of a product as if they decided to build a mobile app separately for each platform.
Android or iOS, Native or Hybrid — which platform is best to use to build your app? What are your recommendations?
As I’ve already noted, React Native is the best technology to build your app. You don’t need to choose in favor of one OS—you get the advantages of two platforms at once and openGeeksLab will help you with this.
What are the key factors that you consider before deciding the cost of a mobile application?
The crucial factor is that a future application should bring money to its owner. Therefore, it should be fast, responsive, and user-friendly. The cost of a mobile app, as well as the time frame, depends on its complexity, scope of work, features and design solutions.
What kind of payment structure do you follow to bill your clients? Is it Pay per Feature, Fixed Cost, Pay per Milestone (could be in phases, months, versions etc.)
We follow three kinds of payment structure to bill our clients. The Time & Material model is ideal to work with large and long-term projects. As our experience shows, a client usually doesn’t have an accurate picture of all the necessary functionality at the start of development. We delve into the tasks with a client, brainstorm new ideas and improvements. A customer can also make adjustments directly during the development process. We also use the Milestone payment structure. In this case, a client receives an invoice after completing a milestone successfully. In case of hourly projects, a client pays only for the number of hours we’ve worked per week and controls work using time tracking tools.
Do you take in projects which meet your basic budget requirement? If yes, what is the minimum requirement? If no, on what minimum budget have you worked for?
We do projects from scratch. Each project engages an architect, designer, product manager, and developers. We work on projects that will benefit clients. If a customer helps people, then we give good discounts. We work on projects that will bring our clients money. We are responsible for what we do.
What is the price range (min and max) of the projects that you catered to in 2018?
In 2018, the price range was between 10.000 USD and 200.000 USD.
Which business model do you suggest to your clients enabling them to generate revenue from mobile applications? Why?
A business model depends on a client’s needs, goals, and budget. Whatever the project, we develop it considering usability in order to bring money to its owner. We provide solutions that make a future product competitive and engagement for users. Each app can be monetized due to its value proposition.
