Our collaboration with Geniusee spans numerous ongoing projects involving custom software development, mobile and web application development, UX/UI design, and digital transformation initiatives. They handle the full cycle from initial planning and requirements gathering to development, testing, deployment, and ongoing support.

We have been collaborating with Geniusee on multiple software development projects for several of our clients in Norway, and our experience has been consistently excellent. Their team demonstrates impressive technical expertise, clear communication, and strong project management skills, ensuring smooth processes from start to finish.

Geniusee has consistently provided exceptional project management across all our collaborations. They are reliable in meeting deadlines, delivering tasks promptly, and ensuring that project milestones are completed as scheduled. Their responsiveness to our evolving needs is particularly impressive; whenever we've had feedback or required adjustments, their team has promptly addressed our concerns with flexibility, professionalism, and clear communication. Working with Geniusee feels smooth and predictable, making our overall experience highly positive.

Virtual Meeting

The most impressive aspect of working with Geniusee is their outstanding UX/UI design capabilities, which consistently deliver world-class, user-centered solutions. Additionally, their hands-on approach stands out—key leaders such as their CEO, CTO, and project managers actively engage in projects, demonstrating genuine commitment and ensuring a deep understanding of our goals and requirements. This proactive involvement at the leadership level has fostered a high level of trust and significantly enhanced the quality and efficiency of our collaborations.

Not anything I can think of. They are truly exceptional.

I’m the CEO of a transportation software company. We create mobile ticketing apps that help bus companies issue fares to their riders. We simplify the ticket purchase process.

We needed help with custom software development. We came in with already established software, but we needed more manpower. Our challenge was to find a team that also possessed mobile app development expertise in natively written iOS and Android apps.

We partnered with Geniusee to scale up our development team and create added value. Onboarding them took a week. Basically, we retained our core development team and relied on Geniusee for several portions of our development process that needed refinement.

We worked with five of their teammates, including a project manager, senior developers, and standard developers. We had a couple of their teammates rotate out depending on our needs.

We contacted several firms but finally decided on Geniusee. We found them on Google.

We spent close to $50,000.

We worked together from late 2022–May 2024.

They got us to a really good stage where we could release an app in a matter of months. We thought we would be out in six months, which cut our development time by 50%.

Geniusee’s project management was great and experienced, making working with them easy.

Bohdan, the project manager, was very helpful. He was easy to work with and very flexible. Serhii was also a great developer and an excellent problem solver. He worked very quickly. Ilya was another great developer who helped us quite frequently. I also want to give a shout-out to Pavlo, a backend developer who helped us get things going.

Geniusee’s responsiveness and ability to scale up and down were impressive. They showed great flexibility by scaling as our requirements changed.

It was on our end that we really needed to figure out things, like what our project requirements were. We needed to iron out some client communication, but that was more on my end than anything. It was just about getting the client up to speed and ensuring they understood the scope of work, which we needed to take responsibility for.

It’s really important to have a good and robust onboarding process to minimize delays in development down the line. Focus on making your onboarding process very robust to avoid hurdles later on.

I’m the founder of a stealth startup. We're building software that intersects fintech and AI, resulting in a selling solution to investment managers.

We were trying to stand up the first version of our software.

Geniusee has worked on multiple fronts of our software. We initially came to the team with a blank slate, and they've worked on project management, UI/UX design, front- and backend development, and DevOps. We've partnered with Geniusee to chart and execute our roadmap.

We work with a designer, a business analyst, a relationship manager, a frontend engineer, a backend engineer, a DevOps engineer, and an AI engineer.

We found Geniusee through a referral. Given the stage we're at, referrals are worth a lot.

We’ve spent between $25,000–$50,000.

We started working together in August 2024, and the engagement is ongoing.

The quality of what Geniusee has built is high. All the components we've seen work robustly, even when there are changes around them. The team has been great in using the frameworks we've requested. I'm happy with Geniusee's work, and the entire team has been excellent. Geniusee has been exceptionally flexible given the early stage of our company. We can be chaotic and dynamic with a lot of changes. The team has worked with us to keep services right-sized, lean, and focused. Geniusee was hungry to work with a company at our stage, and we appreciate it.

I operate on a requirement basis with Geniusee. I manage the AI work, and the team is self-directed in the software engineering tasks. Geniusee is very communicative. The team manages numbers exceptionally tightly, which is essential to me. Geniusee's ability to keep a budget has been exceptional, and their agility to develop under budget constraints is excellent. I get frequent touchpoints and contact. We talk multiple times a week, and we use Slack a lot. We also use video calls for higher bandwidth conversations.

Geniusee's ability to be dynamic and flexible is impressive. We cold started in August 2024, so things change constantly. The team's willingness to pivot and agility in that process while managing a budget has been exceptional. Geniusee stays focused on the important things for the business in a dynamic environment.

I can't think of anything Geniusee can improve on — I’m extremely happy.

I recommend engaging with Geniusee early on in your software development. Creating a shared context of what you’re building is essential. Some software developers want to engage when the requirements are fleshed out, but you can engage Geniusee before the requirements are fully fleshed out. The team is very helpful in crystallizing the granular development tasks. You can engage with Geniusee early before you even have all the clarity yourself.

I’m the co-founder of a company that creates study tools for high-stakes exams in North America.

We needed help with custom software and website development.

Geniusee has been responsible for developing our website and software from the ground up. The team has built our front- and backend systems. We had several old WordPress websites, and Geniusee consolidated them into one using a design we created. One site at a time, the Geniusee team has migrated our old websites into the new product. The team has guided us on what technology stack to use and how to approach everything. They’ve also helped us with animations.

We’re currently working with around 16 members of Geniusee's team.

We found Geniusee on Clutch. They had good reviews, and we got a good feeling with them. We interviewed a few other agencies and narrowed our options down to three. Geniusee took the most personalized approach.

We’ve spent between $1 million–$9 million.

We started working together in January 2023, and the engagement is ongoing.

Geniusee has saved us a lot of time. In one year since we switched from the old site to the new site, our product revenue has grown by 60%–70%. We’re also a lot more efficient. Before working with Geniusee, it took us around a month and a half to fix a bug, while Geniusee fixes them in less than 24 hours.

Geniusee delivers work on time and within budget. We primarily use Jira and Slack for communication.

I’d like to give a shout-out to our QA teammate.

I've worked with other agencies, and, in comparison, Geniusee is very organized, and they always get back to us right away. For example, I needed statistics on how many users were using a feature on the site, so I reached out to Geniusee. This was the first time I asked for these specific metrics, and Geniusee gave the full metrics. They do their best to go above and beyond.

I can’t think of anything they can improve on because they've done such a good job.

Trust what they say. Geniusee is the real deal and they are very experienced.

I’m an executive at a small education technology company. We provide schools and academies with software tools that control students’ internet access. The policies are defined by the academies, schools, teachers, or parents. We also provide classroom management services where teachers control their students’ computers during class.

Our solution is hosted in the cloud, and we have several cloud providers, mainly AWS and Google Cloud Platform. To administer this infrastructure, we need DevOps services, so we hired Geniusee to provide them.

Geniusee provides us with DevOps services and manages our cloud infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform and AWS. Initially, we described to Geniusee what we needed, which was one mandate per day. The team provides a resource to help us administer the cloud, including maintaining our infrastructure, servers, and nodes and supporting us in urgent matters. They also develop new scripts for automation when needed.

Initially, we had two resources working part-time. Now, we have one one DevOps engineer for four hours per day. We also have the support of their project manager, but we only meet for one hour per month.

I wasn’t involved in looking for DevOps services. That was my boss’s responsibility.

We’ve spent a little below $100,000.

We started working together in March 2023, and the engagement is ongoing. We'll work with Geniusee for at least 3–4 more months.

Geniusee is very good at managing our infrastructure; we haven't been disappointed. We measure success by the time it takes for Geniusee to solve our problems or execute tasks. Typically, it takes them 1–3 days to complete a task, which is reasonable. We’re satisfied with their work.

We have daily 15-minute calls with them. They’re quite responsive. Our developers sometimes also need their help. We now have a process in place, and whenever there’s a request for Geniusee, we receive an immediate answer for when they can address our needs. We use Google Meet to communicate.

Maxim does a very good job.

Geniusee has good DevOps skills and knowledge of what’s available on AWS and Google Cloud Platform. They also speak very good English. Our company's CEO is very satisfied with Geniusee's work.

There’s nothing I can think of for them to improve at the moment. We’re satisfied with Geniusee.

Insist on documentation and reporting at the beginning of the partnership. I had to remind Geniusee about this aspect a handful of times; the team has understood and now provides reporting and documentation.
