We found CodeBright on this website (GoodFirms) and reached out to them and a few other established software development companies working with big data, machine learning, cloud computing etc. After a few initial calls, CodeBright made the best impression (out of the companies we approached) - they didn’t waste our time and gave us an action plan on how to go from A to B and beyond. Due to a certain level of novelty of such a product/service on the corporate security market, the team proposed to conduct research to validate a list of assumptions and based on that to build a solution. The research has now been completed and we are happy with the completed work and are in the process of moving forward with product development based on the research conducted. Overall we are happy with the work done by CodeBright - the whole process was very smooth and it was easy to communicate with them. We are excited to continue to work with their team!

I'm the CEO of an established commercial building maintenance company. We needed a custom made software to run our production department and we contracted CodeBright. We've tried to find a solution on the that would fit our needs for over a decade, tried a 4-5 different products on the market (didn't work out), tried working with individual software developers and larger more expensive companies. Our residential department has worked with this team before with good results. We actually were working with another larger software company to achieve the goals . Our GM brought CodeBright in to do a small scale MVP, provide an alternative and has knocked it out of the park! The initial scope of work was pretty sizable (8 months of work for a team of 10-12 developers) and the team was able to implement a proprietary (and complex) formulas that a few other teams failed to pull off. And that's the primary feature of the software. I wasn't personally involved in development but I know this was not a walk in park, a lot of conference calls, emails etc to get everything right. The CodeBright team took the entire project from gathering all the pertinent information to development to quality control to make sure everything is working according to the specs. The first phase has been launched back in January and the system has been operational since then, the team uses it full time and couldn't be happier! Of course initially there was a beta period, we did find bugs (not many!) but the team addressed them very quickly (if it was nothing major- issues were usually fixed the next business day or even the same day!) Now the system is stable, works like a charm! We've heard countless sales pitches, very convincing action plans from other companies! CodeBright also had those but unlike the other companies- this team actually has actually done it! We are now on phase 2, doing a significant expansion of the software.

We are an East Coast based company that provides genealogical DNA research for government agencies, universities and the general public. We’ve contracted CodeBright to further develop our Python/Django-based web application, to develop the visualization of DNA test results and to add features. Having never worked in this field before the team did take some time to learn what we do and what exactly our needs are. We’ve been working with the CodeBright for a few months now and so far we are happy with the results. We plan to continue develop and expand our product further with CodeBright in the new year.

I’ve worked with this team at my corporate job a while back, they have done an amazing job! Now I run my own tech consulting firm- I’ve brought CodeBright team back on! With the product they’ve built for us- we are able to automate 85% of our recruiting work! The virtual assistant (bot) they’ve built for us gets a job description, goes to all the different websites, scans resumes and reaches out to the most fitting candidates by email, Facebook, LinkedIn. Then the bot conducts pre-screening interviews by asking all the right questions and it can hold a few thousand conversations at the same time! After everyone was interviewed- the bot gives us the Top 5, Top 10, Top 20 lists. Once we know the actual interview candidates- our bot contacts the selected candidates for the next round of interviews! The product went through the beta phase and we are happy the way it currently works! We are planning to continue to improve the system with the help of CodeBright and look for other ways we can put technology to good use, to solve problems!

Software Development

We are a DC based home improvement company that has been operating since 1963. We've used a custom built desktop software developed in Microsoft Access 2003 to run our entire production/back office for the company. (i.e. calculate the profitability of every job, salesmen's/crew's commissions and payroll, payments and receivables, vendors remittance etc). Over the years the software became unreliable, obsolete and unsupportable... We've looked for a software development company that could take on this project and bring the software that we rely to run our business day to day for quite some time! We've actually hired a 2 companies before and spent tens of thousands of dollars- the projects went nowhere... When we approached CodeBright- they were confident they'll get the job done and they did! 6 months later- after many conference calls, a lot of email communication- our brand-new software is currently in production and we couldn't be happier! We have recommended CodeBright to other companies in our network!

We are a genetic genealogy company (FGC, Full Genomes) based in Rockville, Maryland that makes next generation sequencing technology available to the general public focusing on the Y chromosome. We have been working with CodeBright for almost 6 months now and are happy with the work, communication and project management. In addition to the web app development- CodeBright has been instrumental in developing the visualization of the DNA test results (from raw data into a user friendly easy to understand form). Although CodeBright team didn't have any background in the field of genetics prior to working with us- they are learning quickly! We have a big To Do list for CodeBright and look forward to continued work with the team!

I hired CodeBright over a year ago to build a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) iOS mobile app for a startup idea I had. They gave me a great deal on development and did exactly what they said they'd do! I did recommend CodeBright to multiple of my friends/family and one of them had CodeBright complete a fairly large development project. Since the original release of the of the app- I have requested a few feature upgrades including a separate web application. I'm happy with the overall experience coupled with a combination of quality work and price. I plan to continue to work with the team in the foreseeable future.

Our IT startup has contracted CodeBright to do an MVP for mobile app. We are grateful and appreciate the entire CodeBright team for all the work that they have done for us. I myself am a hard worker, I appreciate hard work and I like to work with hard workers. I know that to get something done it takes a lot of work. I saw that trait in our Project Manager (Andrey) and knew that it was a good fit. It also helped that Andrey came out to meet us in person in NYC before the project began. After that meeting- we knew we wanted to work with the CodeBright team- they will get the job done and done right. Since we haven't done this before (develop a mobile app from scratch)- we had to learn a lot of the things along the way. We are still learning and we appreciate our PM being flexible/patient, take the time to continue to walk us through the process. He also shared his opinions and his experience (if you do this- you'll get that type of suggestions). We also really appreciated the flexibility of the project manager that worked with us! He made himself available to us which of course helped move the project forward faster. This is a team that keeps their word. If they said they'll get it done- they'll get it done no matter what it takes! The product has gone through a beta testing phase, it has been launched and we are currently working on making it better, growing the user base etc. We are excited to continue our startup journey- working along with CodeBright.

We think that it is important to have a personal connection and the fact that our project manager (Andrey) came out to meet us at in NYC in person before we went into development meant a lot to us. Starting with the discovery phase- we appreciated that our project manager took the time to understand exactly what it is that we were trying to develop, how we came up with the idea, what we were trying to accomplish and whether our goals aligned with the goals of the company. It was our first experience developing a mobile app and we really appreciated how Andrey walked us through the process, explained everything about the paperwork, gave the cost breakdown and made good suggestions along the way One of the tools that we used to track progress was Trello and it was extremely helpful to visualize the whole process and the timeline for completion. Honest, upfront (told us how it really was) and easy to work with. We are happy to (and do) recommend the team to other IT start ups like us.

We are a law firm/debt collection agency based in New York City and we have hired CodeBright to create a software web application for us to streamline & automate the complex debt collection process, make us more effective & efficient as well as transition from paper records to digital records. In the beginning we just had a general direction of where we want to go and what we want to see with no specifics. CodeBright team took our idea and turned it first into a blueprint, interactive wire-frame and then a graphic design (which was approved by us). Throughout the development process we've got regular progress updates from Andrey (the manager) and we knew everything was going according to the plan. Now that the development of the application is completed and the app has gone through the quality control- we are about start using the web app and are planning to at least double our volume in 2018. We are not particularly tech savvy so it was important for us to find a software development company we can trust, that will not cut corners and do the right thing (especially since we deal with sensitive information in our practice). CodeBright went above and beyond what we agreed on to make sure to get the best first version of the application for us and get a smooth start. Can't wait to start on the next version of our web application to add more features which we know will make us so much more competitive! We recommend CodeBright to everyone looking for professional custom software development services!

Visit Profile

Please introduce your company and give a brief about your role within the company?

I started CodeBright in 2015 as a web development company. At that time, it was a one-person web development shop (just myself). As the demand for quality software development grew- CodeBright expanded to meet this demand and expanded the service offerings. Today the team at CodeBright performs a wide range of software development services including web and mobile app development (including CRM, ERP and other systems), AI, Big Data (machine learning, deep learning, etc) and caters to Enterprises, Startups, and Non-profit organizations. As the CEO of CodeBright, my role is to provide a strategic vision, set ambitious goals for our teams that help our clients accomplish strategic business objectives, and solve expensive problems. Over 80% of our repeat business comes from our existing clients, and over 60% of our projects come from referrals by existing clients. Our client’s success is our success!

What was the idea behind starting this organization?

From the early days of CodeBright, I’ve always tried to provide as much value as I could to every project, and in return, CodeBright was rewarded with more significant, more challenging projects. Very soon I realized that I needed a lot of help and a team of young, ambitious and forward-thinking designers, developers, system administrators, data analysts, QA specialists, and project managers started to form. CodeBright continues to grow 50-100% every year and continues to learn and innovate.

What is your company’s business model–in house team or third party vendors/ outsourcing?

Around 90% of all our projects are implemented in-house by our core team. In some specific cases (where it makes sense and/or when it is outside of our core expertise) we do use subcontractors, with the approval of the client and a quality guarantee from us.

How is your business model beneficial from a value addition perspective to the clients compared to other companies' models?

Simply put - we never cut corners and always build projects as if they are our internal projects.

What industries do you generally cater to? Are your customers repetitive?

Over 80% of our business comes from existing clients who worked with us in the past. These clients belong to a variety of industries: Transportation & Logistics, Education, Healthcare, Legal Services, and Travel industry to name a few. We are quick learners with varied experience and are open to working in various new fields.

Mention the objectives or the parameters critical in determining the time frame of developing a web app.

Every product (software-based or otherwise) has a core/cornerstone feature (or features, usually not more than a few) and without this feature, the outcome would be completely useless. When we start a new project and go through the Discovery/Evaluation phase- one of our primary goals is to determine the set of the core/cornerstone features and focus on them, they will usually be responsible for over 80% of the entire development (following the Pareto principle aka the 80/20 rule).

How much effort in terms of time goes into developing the front end and back end of a web app?

Depending on a particular product requirement, some applications are heavier on the back-end, and some are on the front-end. We find that in our web development projects, the share of the back-end is 60% or higher. Mobile projects are closer to 50/50. Our average project lasts between 2.5 months to 8 months.

What are the key parameters to be considered before selecting the right platform for a web application?

The primary criteria is to see what technology the end user is using already and what our target audience will be using in the foreseeable future. Scalability (user growth) and expandability is another critical factor. The platform should be able to support the needs and wants of the user that are currently apparent and the features that will be in demand in the future.

Which platform and technologies do you prefer to use in development of your web apps?

It depends on the overall long term goal of the project/product. We currently use the following programming languages and frameworks in web development: PHP/Laravel Python/Django We choose the above technologies because they are very established (not going anywhere, won’t become obsolete), there is a big enough pool of qualified developers using the technology to ensure the longevity of products and more significant competition among developers (and thus lower costs).

Do you offer website design templates or customised website design, and do you have a responsive website design?

Yes to all. Depending on what the particular needs are- we offer solutions that fit best.

Which Content Management System do you prefer to use (Wordpress, Joomla, Drupal etc)?

We primarily do custom software development that is tailored to the needs of a specific individual/team/organization. But when it comes to Content Management Systems- we primarily work with WordPress.

Do you provide website maintenance services?

Since over 80% of our business is repeat business- we absolutely provide maintenance services.

What are the key factors that you consider before deciding the cost of a web application?

The scope, of course, is the primary factor as the scale of the work defines how much the client should be investing. Also, the cost depends a lot on how much of pre-development activities are involved, whether research is required. The complexity of the solution is undoubtedly a significant factor, as well.

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 use all the payment structures (Time & Materials, Pay per Feature, Fixed Cost, Pay per Milestone, etc.) and depending on the client needs, select the most suitable one.

Do you take in projects which meet your basic budget requirement? If yes, what is the minimum requirement? If no, on what minimum budget you have worked for?

Our minimum project size is $5000.

What is the price range (min and max) of the projects that you catered to in 2018?

The price ranged from projects with a $5000 budget to well over six figures.
