I approached dualboot with a concept I want to bring to life. Through the discovery process, we could map out a buyer's journey with a focus on the user experience. I received a clickable demo and explainer videos to use in my fundraising and product development efforts. The team took great notes, brought new ideas to the table, and brought a prototype of the project to life. Where we started was very different from where we ended up, and in fact, it's better thanks to input from the team.

The deliverable was a clickable prototype, nothing measurable was involved in this project outside that end goal.

Great, very responsive, and proactive. The project was managed well. If we were not on schedule, it was usually explained why and easily understood... and usually my fault.

The collaboration and sense of being on a team. I never felt like I was working with an agency; it felt like they were part of the company and truly cared about the idea and vision. Great folks to work with, and it's rare that groups I hire bring new (and better) ideas to the table.

I think any areas for improvement were addressed on the fly and they were great about soliciting feedback and reacting to it.

Collaboration with the OnTarget internal team to create and design a mobile application that provides end users the ability to complete daily tasks associated to client care. The main obective of the mobile application is to allow end users to quickly and efficiently complete required data collection for provided patient care as well as provide important information to increase care without the need to access OnTarget desktop web application.

The project manager assigned to our account was very transparent in the estimated delivery time as the collaboration of the front end and back end teams was critical in meeting the deliverables in a timely manner. Full transparency on progress and needs from the DualBoot team was routine and provided and scheduled, routine meetings to ensure success. Estimated delivery times were not met for the initial phase. However, after phase 1 of the project was delivered, great strides were taken to improve team collaboration resuting in a much improved delivery times. The later phases were delivered on time to over 90%.

The willingness and determination to improve team collaboration and dedication to the project impress us. The DualBoot team took ownership of their portion of the project often providing valuable input to the overall design and functionality based the end users eas of use. In short, the team very much cared for the outcome of the product instead of just providing a deliverable based on our suggestions only.

Although very commendable, any improvements or ideas for better UI - UX functionality and design, to ensure those are communicated with the entire team before implementing. Some changes to the application were made unknowingly to the OnTarget team until seen within testing environments. These were improvements but not part of the expected deliverable.

Delivery of substantial platform features with minimal oversight. Positive contribution to team chemistry. Frequent suggestions for improvement or new directions. Ability to think creatively to unblock or propose alternatives to maintain momentum.

Our resource worked directly with us as part of a small, agile team. We had a weekly sprint candence with daily check-ins. Our resource was able to break down large problems into smaller stories with reasonable estimates, and work with a high degree of independence to complete tasks. WIth a weekly cadence, we were able to be responsive to ever-changing priorities.

Dualboot is able to provide a wide variety of skills for software product teams as either fractional or full time resources. We were able to start small with the idea that we could add more skills down the road as needed. Dualboot provided great support for onboarding and checkins to make sure things were going well.

None that come to mind.

The project consisted of working with multiple 3rd parties to create a custom software that will injest financials from multiple PMS (property management systems) to create a platform that allows asset managers to view all the data across multiple platforms in one place. There are over 700+ KPIs that a user can select to visually see their data. Additionally, other verticals were created to give CRE owners and operators the ability to create Asset & Debt scenarios to determine what type of equity they could project from the assets.

Taking the project over from a 3rd party vendor and alligning with the goals of the business leaders to more robustly develop the project.

The team at DBP are always responsive and come with a positive attitude. The deliverables were met as timely as possible given the scope of work. Whenever scope creep occurred the team at DBP were honest and upfront about when it was going to occur and why. Software development will always have some level of adjustment, but this team treated us as a partner throughout the project and did everything they could to ensure a good experience.

Virtual Meeting

After working with DBP over the past 6 years on multiple projects it is easy to say that what makes them unique is their ability to communicate clearly, kindly, and accurately with the customer. Even if things have gone slightly awry, they are honest and true to their word and will find solutions to issues, should they arise.

DBP could have done a little more to ensure that knowledge transfer from a long-term team lead was going to another team lead with the same level of expertise. We lost some time during that transition, but DBP did help amend the issue with other resources.

We contracted Dualboot after taking an open source product to market where we weren't fully vested in the IP. We were looking to create our own ERP based on the things we had learned over a decade of building a flooring business and commercialize our expertise for use by others. With this we wanted to ensure it looked good, it felt user friendly, and it was able to scale from a small business to an enterprise level. We began with UI/UX design of the first module and worked that way up until today on being design driven first before development when creating new features or redesigning original features. This helped us have a clear picture of what we were building before we built it.The next 18 months was a clear roadmap of developing module by module to complete our full package. We started with the sales side of the application which had the most groundwork that had to be laid for the application then moved through each module until we completed the application in whole. Our target was to build an MVP of our application with all four major modules integrated and functioning to our customers standards.

Product development is my personal form of success. I need to see, touch, and test drive the outcomes to understand the progress we've made and determine if any redirection needs to happen. We had longer periods but we typically released something on a two week sprint whether in design phases or development to make sure we were on the right track and making progress.

Project Management was a work in progress due to the size of the project but they were extremely responsive to each of our requests or needs. We worked with a great team throughout the project that helped us map each phase to ensure we could deliver what we needed and if priorities changed or something was blocking other things they were able to identify the bottlenecks and help us get past them.

The worked with us like a true partner ensuring we grew as we progressed and brought things to the table we had yet to learn.

Nothing to note.
