Five Jars

Our company wanted to automate the process of notifying oil rig workers about their shifts. Employees often change shifts and we wanted to make this process more convenient and also move it online. We chose Five Jars for it. Being PHP-based, the scheduler is accessible online 24/7 and personnel can always keep an eye on their schedule. Administrative personnel can conduct reports on work, sign up, trade shifts and time off, and export the reports as Excel, CSV or PDF files.

For quite a long time we took orders by e-mail or personally from customers. It took a lot of time, as we either made layouts by hand or printed them according to the vague requirements of clients. All these difficulties have pushed us to take a step towards the digital transformation of our business. Development of the backend system allowed to reduce hand work time for business operators 4 times. We continue to actively work with Five Jars - the guys have a huge number of ideas on how to improve all processes of our production. The command tries to improve the internal data processing processes for our site, as we now receive ten times more daily data than ever. We consider the introduction of a new product type - photo books with a variety of settings. This is our next step in digital transformation.

I worked in the luxury goods industry for a long time and realized that for the modern buyer there is not enough of something like a marketplace where luxury goods from different manufacturers would be collected. This would help save the buyer time and organize the purchase of all luxury items in one place. I chose Five Jars because of their price tag, attractive social media, and an office close to my home. Right now our MVP is ready for testing. It looks great and I think we will be ready to present the project to the world in a couple of months. Now I am looking for a more profitable hosting option for the aggregator.

At the beginning of the pandemic, I decided to improve the quality of its work and introduce new features following the latest e-learning trends. I was looking for companies that had experience with large educational platforms. There are some really big players in the eLearning market in the Five Jars portfolio, so I trusted their development experience. Our platform has become more attractive to users. Over the past year, we have noticed a significant increase in daily visits, so much so that we even had to change hosting. Five Jars helped us with that too!

The team developed a site for creating and searching for events. Parents and event organizers play the main roles here - this is a truly family-friendly application that is designed to attract both parents and their children. The application itself contains all the events for children in the selected city in the form of a calendar based on filters, such as the age of participants, topics, duration, and so on. In addition, there is an event blog where users can comment on events or even share them via Facebook. I love working with professionals when I don't have to dive into a whole area that I don't know. Working with the Five Jars was a real partnership where the other side fulfilled their obligations without my constant checks.

We were looking for a solution to automate the booking services in our beauty salons. It was decided to hire a software development company to implement our needs and, perhaps, sell our own SaaS solution for the market. Five Jars were chosen due to the fact that they have implemented similar cases for businesses from other industries. We introduce the system in stages in each of our salons, so far there is no significant statistics data. We also plan to bring our solution to the market as SaaS.

Our company produces and promotes entertainment channels on YouTube, such as a variety of content about creativity, quick handmade, channels dedicated to various ratings, channels with animated stories, and so on. We decided to create a small internal video editor that would allow us to quickly create this type of content so that producers could do it themselves without delegating these tasks to editors. This is a tool for internal use, so it's unlikely I can provide any detailed details. In any case, we saved quite a lot of time for our editors and automated the video publishing process. This greatly helps us expand our channels faster and helps us gain subscribers and distribute content.

Since we are implementing a subscription delivery system, every week the team of chefs changes their menu, and new sets of dishes are combined and published on our website. Having collected all incoming orders, we manually created a table with all customers and their orders. All this took a huge amount of time and had to be automated. Initially, the Five Jars team acted as business analysts and studied all our processes in order to automate them effectively. Now, most of the preliminary work is done automatically, and not manually: the panel itself adapts and organizes orders, prioritizes them for chefs and builds delivery routes. Also, the panel now generates labels for orders with filled in addressee data. But the most valuable thing for us is that the team has developed a solution for automatically separating dishes from sets into individual ingredients. This allows you to transfer finished lists to the kitchen without manual labor. We are already using the MVP version.

Having worked in the music industry for many years, I know how difficult it is to promote music products and distribute them to customers. The main goal was to create a platform with the ability for artists to upload their music tracks. Users who require background music (such as YouTubers, bloggers and other content creators) can choose a subscription plan of their liking or buy tracks one at a time. The platform also includes a large library of license-free tracks. Artists receive royalties for their work, and creators can use quality music at affordable prices. It's like Shutterstock, but for musicians! Now my platform includes over 100 genres and over 1000 music tracks and effects. In the near future, I plan to scale this startup and add not only the roles of musicians and users but also other music labels.

I am the owner of a private fitness club and a fitness app for this club. At the time I started working with the Five Jars team, I had a system of two mobile applications and a website that is used to upload content to applications. The applications are built more or less well, but the main problem with the site is that it was poorly coded, so the site did not work correctly. The Five Jars development team rebuilt the site from scratch, implementing all the features I needed and increasing the speed of the entire fitness system. They did not work with mobile applications, only with the web platform, but the system works perfectly. It's hard for me to say exactly what they did with the site code, but now users with the administrator role can control almost anything on the site. Our fitness system started to work much faster. Now it can handle a load of hundreds of users at once. Many of our clients have decided to try remote training from home using our updated system.

I am the CEO of a large manufacturer of custom folding cartons - we produce different types of cartons. We needed to create a web application for customers that would make it easier and more convenient to order the necessary materials, track stock balances and find out the current status of their orders. For a long time, we used spreadsheets for databases and the company's customers sent their orders in Excel or CSV format, and this was processed manually by the company's specialist. It was inconvenient for us and for our clients. The Five Jars team has helped us go through the full digitization journey. They implemented several off-the-shelf tools such as product configurators and a WYSIWYG editor for packaging, but most of the work involved custom development. Now the Five Jars team is focused on automating the workflow between departments within the company. This is a long and productive partnership that we plan to continue.

I am a professional artist who is part of a community of professional painters, decorators and frames. Our team strives to make it easier for businesses and individuals to purchase and collect art. Our community launched a startup selling contemporary art and customizing frames and glass for that. We were looking for a provider with similar cases in the art industry. On the Five Jars website, we saw that the team has experience in implementing a project for George Washington's Mount Vernon. The Five Jars team made it a goal to reduce the number of processes associated with the purchase of works of art. The user can find a list of paintings with a detailed description, including the author, sizes, materials, prices, and then add the picture with the glass and frame they like. We are planning to add an NFT purchase to the site shortly, so our partnership with Five Jars continues.

I am the founder of the flower company. I wanted to implement an online sale and delivery of flowers from my flower store. Before the pandemic, we were not represented online, but now it has become a convenient way to do business. I needed a development team that would be able to create a workable product in a short time so that we would be presented online as soon as possible. The Five Jars team has developed an online flower store with an admin panel and user profiles. As an administrator, I can change item cards, add or remove them, accept payments, and track the status of an order. The users can make an online purchase of any item, edit their profile and track the delivery status. The team used Drupal to create the store, and they also implemented a Stripe payment system. The design team has created a modern and lightweight design that reflects the concept of buying flowers as a daily pleasure.

We searched for a partner to implement the web part of the project based on reviews and mentions in the TOP lists and chose Five Jars. The Five Jars team developed a multilingual web platform and an admin panel in addition to the mobile application that our team developed for the end customer. The admin role has been implemented and this allows the end customer to create marketing campaigns and inform the admin of the success of the campaign. More precisely, the Five Jars developers have integrated third-party marketing analytics to offer advanced A / B testing and seamless integration of online marketing tools. The team also implemented a user role and a personal account, from which the consumer can edit their profile, manage course subscriptions, as well as track the lesson schedule and do homework. To offer the greatest possible functionality, Five Jars integrated various third-party services such as user identification and payment gateways.
