Fresh Lime Soft Executive Interview
Andrew Shaban
CEO
Kindly share your feedback on how GoodFirms has been doing so far in increasing your visibility among potential clients.
We are glad to be a part of GoodFirms as it helps us to boost user acquisition stats, and improve market share and company visibility. Even with a free hosting package, we have received a number of requests from prospective clients and more traffic to our website. Now we decided to move to paid memberships since it is important for us to belong to the dedicated community of performing IT companies.
Please introduce your company and give a brief overview of your role within the organization.
We are Fresh Lime Soft (FLS), an international custom software development company located in Georgia and Estonia. Since 2015, we have operated in the market, serving mostly midsize and enterprise clients. Our main technology stack is React.js, Angular, Vue.js, Node.js, React Native, Ionic, iOS, Android, .NET, Java, Python, C++, and Machine Learning.
My role as FLS Founder & CEO is to drive the business forward through all challenges. To be more specific, right now I am focused on marketing and planning strategies for new customer acquisitions.
This summer, we launched a new development center in Batumi, aiming to build a bigger presence in Georgia over the next few years. So, I also deal with all issues arising during the center’s establishment. Finally, one of my additional responsibilities is to oversee inner startup development and to search for like-minded investors to provide our products with financial fuel.

What is the story behind starting this company?
Before starting Fresh Lime Soft, I spent more than 12 years doing business in various areas. I started with wholesale and e-commerce and later built from scratch a profitable company in metal structure construction. But it turned out that creating innovative services and products for people was my true passion and calling.
I mastered software development by studying online on LinkedIn Learning. For some time, I worked as a Full-Stack freelance developer and self-employed professional coder. Later on, in 2015, I set up Fresh Lime Soft with the dream of making the best company for the most talented people.

It is up to you to decide if I succeeded in building a good company. But I must admit, FLS became a team of professionals capable of addressing clients’ business challenges by providing reliable and scalable digital products and services.
What is your company’s business model–in-house team or third-party vendors/outsourcing?
We learned from our practice that developers who work as a team are more motivated to achieve the best results and add as much value as possible. So, for us, in-house development is a preferable business model since it gives us two main values crucial for high-quality software development: real-time communication and control of the development process.
Our multidisciplinary team currently consists of approximately 70 mid and senior expert-level professionals with experience in the development of web and mobile apps, MVP, business automation solutions, and AI/ML.
And we keep attracting and retaining talented people who want to expand their horizons in software development. We are committed to training and educating our personnel from junior to senior levels. Every 3 to 6 months, we assess their level and motivate them to improve their skills and competence. Everybody is provided with mentorship. There is no greater joy in my life than revealing people’s talents, seeing them grow, and encouraging them to go as far as they want to.

How does your company differentiate itself from the competition?
I think the software development industry is like a big blue ocean where there's a space for all. Especially right now when the digital transformation of the business environment is only a matter of time as the world becomes increasingly digital.
Answering your question, I would highlight the professional approach to developing products that set us apart from many other companies. At FLS, we never forget that digital transformation is not about technology — it’s all about people and business.
Since we develop software on bespoke, we go the extra mile to understand clients' needs. So in the end, we know more about their business, goals, and challenges than the next software developer off the street. At this point, we are becoming a true technology partner dedicated to meeting their business needs today and supporting their future growth tomorrow.

What industries do you generally cater to? Are your customers repetitive? If so, what ratio of clients has been repetitive to you?
FLS team has experience in developing software for clients from such industries as Education, FinTech, Healthcare, FoodTech, Entertainment, and others. Our professional expertise relates to business automation tools and Machine Learning technologies.
And, I am pleased to note that 80% of our clients become our long-term partners or hire us for the next project. For example, the FLS team built Anytime Soccer - an effective "watch-and-learn" web platform where any kid can learn to play soccer from a highly-professional coach. Over the past three years, we have been providing technical support and expanding the teaching and training functions.

Please share some of the services you offer for clients who approach you the most.
Clients approach us for Custom Business Automation Software the most. Such tools help businesses to cut costs, drive growth, and tackle management's efficiency and customer satisfaction issues, as was the case with the real estate developer from Israel.
They needed a web application that allowed their clients and construction companies to monitor the progress of construction work online. After four months of development, we launched Go Clear. Now their customers have access to the needed information, can upload essential documents, and chat with representatives of companies without visiting the office. Imagine how much valuable time they are saving now!
Another example is a project for City Kitchen, which provides education in the field of food safety and hospitality services operating in North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and Georgia. The FLS team delivered Raise The Grade to hack repetitive tasks into a manageable and efficient workflow. It is a ready-to-use solution that facilitates registration and payment, reduces manager engagement time, and alleviates the overall workload while streamlining the educational processes.

What is your customer satisfaction rate, according to you? What steps do you take to cater to your customers’ needs and requirements?
Well, our customer satisfaction rate is at the level of 4 or 5 points as 80% of them become our long-term partners.
We start by putting the client's needs first. To understand what software solution is perfect for them, we don't spare our time to communicate face-to-face and elaborate on the request down to the very last detail.
We are honest and empathetic in interaction. We don’t only explain how shiny new software will innovate business and power it with bright opportunities. We also focus on how it will transform the very soul of their business – the company’s culture. So we set realistic expectations at every stage of the development process. That is not just nice words, that is the key principle of being a professional in the software development industry and everywhere.
And there is one more key step to retention. We make it easy for clients to complain. In fact, being criticized is a fantastic way to learn about your failings and reveal your growth potential.

What kind of support system do you offer to your clients to cater to their queries and issues?
Depending on the specific requirements, our experts help clients go through each phase of solution development step by step, providing advice on technology and application design options. Each project at FLS is under the supervision of a dedicated quality assurance team.
After finishing a project, we provide full maintenance support taking care of the production server, security, and all updates. In the case of critical bugs, we fix them as soon as possible, working all day long and on weekends. If bugs are not critical or if there have to be some changes or augmentations to the project made, we perform this job according to schedule.

If bugs are not critical or if there have to be some changes or augmentations to the project made, we perform this job according to schedule.
What kind of payment structure do you follow to bill your clients?
When it comes to custom software development, the agile methodology is superior to all else, if not essential. And in order for it to work, either your budget or project scope needs to be flexible. That is why we follow the Time and Material contract.
There is a popular notion that the word “flexible” means more expensive in the long run. This may be the case when you are dealing with a mechanic, for example. But in agile software development flexibility expresses the principle - you pay for exactly what you get. Projects developed on a fixed-price basis are more expensive than those on a timely basis.

But in agile software development flexibility expresses the principle - you pay for exactly what you get. Projects developed on a fixed-price basis are more expensive than those on a timely basis.
Do you take on projects that meet your basic budget requirements? If so, what is the minimum requirement? If not, on what minimum budget have you worked? What is the price range (min and max) of the projects that you catered to in 2021?
We are willingly helping different businesses achieve their goals. There are many ways that this can be done, even on a basic budget. In our company, it is equal to two months' worth of one developer’s work.
For example, last year, one of our specialists was engaged in the client's project by the out staff model for $10,000.
The project with the maximum budget we worked for in 2021 was Clix.cx. The development process took 16 months and cost $300,000. Our team delivered a no-code tool that enables entrepreneurs of all sizes to manage their businesses by creating and running a website of varying complexity.

Where do you see your company in the next 10 years?
In 10 years, I believe FLS will be the top destination for entrepreneurs to receive tactical advice and partnerships for starting and scaling their products and services. In a decade, I see in the FLS portfolio world-renowned brands such as Tesla, Sony, and more. We have been expanding our presence to the USA, Great Britain, and UAE. We will develop a flagship product that will make a difference in the world and bring something fresh, lime, and soft to everyday life.

Review Summary
I can't speak highly enough about the team at Fresh Lime Soft. As a start-up with a modest budget, trust, professionalism, communication, and execution are important to me. I needed a company that did more than just code. I needed an IT thought leader. What I received from Fresh Lime was even more. They are truly a technical partner who has implemented all phases of my website.
Fresh Lime has helped turn my dream into reality. They helped me design and implement my web application at every phase. As a matter of fact, they save me considerable money in the long term by ensuring the structure and design of my site was suitable to grow with my vision.
I can't speak highly enough about the team. I normally write a two-sentence review (if that), but they deserve your attention and I really want to do my part to help them become even more successful.
I recommend them without reservation. Please check out www.anytime-soccer.com and feel free to contact me for a reference.
