I strongly recommend Empat as a trustworthy partner. They have flexible working methods, pleasant and dedicated employees, and are always trying to solve the problem rather than redirect it. Reasonable pricing, technically strong engineers, and a quick and efficient staffing process. The project manager was extremely responsive. He was available 24/7 to cover all the questions and demonstrate the progress.

They made the site user and mobile friendly, which increased our visitors. They kept us up to date on their progress and answered all our questions whenever we had them. They provided a variety of online management tools we used to keep in touch easily and to share all the working files. Empats' attention to detail, as well as care and concern for customer satisfaction, was unlike any company we've worked with.

These guys had already implemented a couple of cool projects in support of Ukraine during the war, and we wanted to get the same cool result in a short time, so we turned to them. Project management was great. They always kept in touch with us and tried to understand what we wanted. They spent a lot of time with us to understand our revisions and give us their perspective. It was a well-structured process. In less than a month of work we got a full-fledged website! We are more than happy with their efficiency. The level of technical maturity. In web development, it can be hard to find people with enough experience and skill to do such a fast development.

They have an excellent project management process. In terms of cost, quality, and time, we’re satisfied with their work. They give us weekly updates, and they consistently follow up. In fact, our project manager always informs us about any changes or issues in our project. I like the way the team organizes and structures their work. Especially, the way they are always there to listen to the stakeholders’ feedback and implement everything we aim to see on our website.

I contacted Empat with the aim of creating a selling website for our dental center, to show its innovativeness and professionalism. The team has packed the basic information and services of our clinic on the website. We were also able to provide educational content to increase the awareness of our clients about the procedures. We considered several options for local companies and chose Empat. Their Manager held an intro-meet for us, where we asked all the questions and got to know their approach to work, and we were quite satisfied with it. As a result, we received the desired website, which reflects the uniqueness and customer orientation of our clinic. We can easily set up advertising campaigns and direct all leads to our website because we are confident that our target audience will like it. They were willing to work hard and push themselves to provide quality products for their clients.

Their team was very responsive and came up with many ideas during the engagement, helping us decide on what technology to use. They has always maintained good timelines. The project manager shared sprint plans with us and always delivered tasks on time, using tools like Jira.

We needed a website where everyone could get acquainted with information about our organisation, its activities and conditions on how to join it. The launch of the site increased the influx of new participants by 40%, allowed us to become more open to the public since anyone can look through the reports that we post and the events that we hold. The empath is excellent in communication skills. They built a well-coordinated work and systematically gave us feedback on the progress of the project. The questions that they had were not waiting for the next appointment, which would have delayed the development process, but were resolved by the project manager Elvira immediately, using Telegram to contact me. Thanks to their flexibility and responsibility, they resolved emerging issues rather quickly, which gave us a sense of their constant involvement in the development of the website.

We hired Empat to create an english-language repository of the truth about the war and the power of Ukraine "We are Ukraine". The project was the initiative of One Philosophy consulting group in partnership with IT company Empat and supported by volunteers. Our goal was to give understanding to people all over the world: today the future of humanity is being decided in Ukraine. Their desire to work and fulfil the set goals made us believe that the site would turn out to be really beautiful and selling. Communication with the team was carried out systematically, thanks to which the result was issued on time. We implemented this project in a rush, so we requested faster execution from our partners at Empat. So they generally operated very efficiently and quickly.

The project team consisted of the following positions: UI/UX Designer, Backend development, iOS development, Android development, Frontend development, DevOps, QA/QC. Empat provides robust, formalized practices and takes project management seriously. We had weekly meetings with the project manager to review the deliverables. We reached milestones without delays, and everything was done according to specifications. Users were taking advantage of the product's features as they were being added continuously through regular sprints. The project began with an introduction to the team and the presentation of a project roadmap that outlined the deliverables and schedule. We started with the design and Empat sent us an app prototype for app flow approval. Their entire team is extremely responsive and works hard to keep strong client relationships. Whenever we needed any help, we directly contacted the project manager that is always available to help us.

We've worked with Empat for several years and on several projects. We worked with them on medium-size and large-size projects. They are always my go to solution for web and app development. Since I have experience working with Empat, I am comfortable with what I need to deliver. I always provide them with an idea about the site we are going to create, with instructions on how the site should look and feel. After that I receive a custom price quote for the project and once payment is sent I know that in a short while I'll get the fully coded site as a custom WordPress theme. Empat provides a staging website for me to review the progress, and I able to upload content, test the site and provide them with feedback. The communication was fantastic - timely, clear, and detailed. They worked hard to understand my requirements, to check-in, to provide examples, and to ensure we understood the stage the project was at at all times.

They were always available and quick to resolve any issues I had. The project was well defined from the start, and everything was well communicated.

We started selling clothes in the European market and because of expanding production and increasing the number of markets in which we sell it, we decided to hire Empat to develop a website where we can offer our services to customers online and expand our online presence as well. As expected from the team, the project delivery was done well within time and we launched the website earlier than expected. Our major goal was to enhance the user interface and experience on our website which was achieved successfully. We have been working with other developers and agency but never saw such great enthusiasm and professionalism which this team has always shown throughout the project. The project was handled with good care and with proper analytics which was very impressive.

Nazar Gulyk
Nazar Gulyk
CEO
Visit Profile

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

We’re Empat - a full-service mobile & web agency for startups and businesses. My name is Nazar and I'm the CEO of this company.

What is the story behind starting this company?

The story began in 2013 with the creation of a small boutique web studio with high-profile clients. This studio's co-owner and primary account manager was me. Over the next five years, I founded three startups in various industries with varying degrees of success; two of them failed, and one was sold. In 2018, I decided to bring together the teams of three startups and a web studio to form Empat. We also launched the startup studio Empat two years later, in 2021, but due to the start of Russia's large-scale war against Ukraine and the focus on the Ukrainian market, we stopped investing in projects in 2022. We are now operating as a service outsourcing company.

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

We have 56 employees, all of whom work in-house. Furthermore, the team has a low turnover - the average contract is 4-5 years with the same developers.

The hiring of freelancers raises the risk of quality and delivery for both us and our customers.

How does your company differentiate itself from the competition?

The majority of the team members have worked in startups, are co-founders of startups, or have their own pet projects. As a result, we have highly organized agency and creative thinking outside the box. This, I believe, is one of our strongest suits.

What industries do you generally cater to? Are your customers repetitive? If yes, what ratio of clients has been repetitive to you?

Some of our clients have been working with us since 2014. Almost 70% of new projects come from existing clients or recommendations. Healthcare, FinTech, EdTech, and Social Media are some of the major industries.

Please share some of the services that you offer for which clients approach you the most for?

We excel at creating startups from the ground up, particularly mobile apps: our developed apps are now thriving in the US market, and our clients' MVPs have received their 25M+ investments.

What is your customer satisfaction rate according to you? What steps do you take to cater to your customer’s needs and requirements?

The only way to know if your customers are truly satisfied with your company, products, and services is to conduct regular customer satisfaction surveys. We have a clear system for measuring customer satisfaction, and we conduct monthly surveys to determine how well we are doing our job.

What kind of support system do you offer to your clients for catering to their queries and issues?

Our managers are assigned to each client and are available through the communication channels that are most convenient for them. In addition, we have two months of project support after the project is completed.

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.)

The billing system is determined by the project. This is typically monthly billing in the time & materials format, which is approved by the client at the beginning of the month.

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?

Projects starting at $5,000 are considered.

What is the price range (min and max) of the projects that you catered to in 2021?

The price range is 10.000$ - 800.000$

Where do you see your company in the next 10 years?

10 years is too long in today's world. In the next year, we want to help our clients launch more than 50 new projects, attract more than $5 billion in investments, and have a total audience of 1 billion users across all of our projects.
