How is your business model beneficial from a value addition perspective to the clients compared to other companies' models?
Our company is based on three pillars: streamlined processes, proven technologies, and talented people. These pillars allow us to stand out from competitors in many ways.
We believe that streamlined processes help us increase team morale. Our workflow, combined with the strictly defined roles and responsibilities, is a solid background for the coherent work of the team. As a result, we create a transparent workflow, build clear communication with clients, and can meet their expectations with on-time and budget delivery.
As for "proven technologies," over the nine years, we have formed an optimal tech stack that allows us to deliver results with minimal risks. We chose the technologies that help us provide clients with high-quality products, consistent delivery, and excellent scalability. We mastered them to solve our clients’ tasks quickly and efficiently.
When it comes to talented people, RubyGarage started with Ruby/Rails courses, so we inevitably pay much of our attention to mentoring and training. Our working specifics implies the constant improvement of skills and knowledge.
At RubyGarage, every employee has a Personal Development Plan (PDP), where we set goals for the next six months. The goals correlate with the goals of the current project the specialist is working on or the company’s strategic goals. As a rule, we include several goals for each iteration and create a set of activities aimed at achieving goals with the mentor. The skills matrix helps us set relevant, attainable, and specific goals that demonstrate competencies a specialist must have to move to the next level of seniority.
Knowledge sharing is an essential part of all our mentoring programs. We strive to scale expertise gained by one person to the rest of the team and the IT community through presentations, articles in the media, workshops, and lectures. In fact, it's the most rewarding part of any mentoring program: to see the results of your work and share it with others.
At RubyGarage, we pay a great deal of attention to people and give them all tools for self-improvement. We believe that only experts can create really great products.
Last but not least factor that helps us stand out is the fact that our team constantly works on white-label solutions to speed up the development process and reduce its cost. Today, we can offer our clients an online chat, video call, schedule management, booking solutions, online store, multi-vendor and booking marketplaces, and many others.
