Netfork

I am a CEO & Co-Founder of Reusables. Reusables.com is a zero-waste packaging platform that provides reusable packaging to businesses and their customers.

As a startup, we needed to build the first version of the platform. The goal of our platform was to help restaurants and end users manage reusable food containers that we as a company provide.

We established first contact with Netfork during the Web Summit conference in Lisbon. Later, we contacted Netfork to see if we can work together. At the time, we were interested in creating a startup. During our initial conversations, we asked about their previous projects and talked to their previous clients. After we made sure that Netfork has the needed quality, we decided to start the partnership.

We needed to create a project MVP with two main types of users - restaurants and customers. The project needed to make it possible for restaurants to request reusable packaging from us. Customers would then rent those packages along with the food they had ordered. Restaurants and end users were supposed to use the system through the mobile app. We needed a team that was capable of developing and maintaining the platform.

We organized reference calls with Netfork’s previous partners. We also asked Netfork to show us their previous projects that had similar scope and functionalities (tracking, etc). After verifying Netfork's quality, we chose to work with them.

Netfork team has successfully developed an MVP of the platform, that we launched in fall 2021. Their team is still developing and maintaining our platform.

From the very beginning, Netfork team took full responsibility for the development process of the app. They maintained a high level of transparency of the process, which is why we were able to know the development status at all times.

The level of transparency and clarity in communication, They were highly reliable from the start which is why we were able to give them full ownership without our supervision and management.

No, they were professional and great!

I am the CMO at Zenegy, responsible for Marketing Strategy and execution at Zenegy. I work closely with our product teams and relevant development stakeholders. Zenegy was founded in 2017 with a desire to create a whole new generation of payroll systems, and rethink the existing ones. Our tech platform offers a digital, user-friendly, and flexible payroll system.

We wanted to add new team members to our existing teams in order to scale them. As a result, we needed backend developers with .Net experience on the back-end and Angular expertise on the front-end to join our existing teams.

Netfork reached out to our former CTO. Following the initial contact, we discussed potential collaboration and developers that Netfork could provide for our needs. After onboarding their first candidates, we decided to extend our collaboration with Netfork, who recommended new developers suitable for our teams.

We have created multiple products within our platform. Payroll is the current flagship of Zenegy and is a revolutionary Payroll system, which boasts of many complex, innovative and unique features. Time is a tool for tracking work and task related hours and minutes. With Admin, you get complete transparency and control over your customers' payroll administration, as well as the most innovative solution on the market.

When a specific resource was required, Zenegy would then send a message to Netfork. Netfork would then send CVs of candidates they believe are a good fit for the appropriate role. It's always .Net and Angular expertise as a stack, preferably with Azure expertise as well.

Our products' overall development has improved as a result of our collaboration with Netfork.

All Netfork developers have successfully integrated into our product teams' processes and standards. The communication is excellent, and we consider them to be an important part of our teams. All of this has contributed to the fact that we now have ten Netfork developers on our teams.

Their adaptability to our processes and business requirements. All developers spent time learning about our products' requirements, while being determined to add value to us throughout the process.

I don't believe there are any significant areas for improvement.

NFI is a transportation company. We offer a wide range of services, including distribution, brokerage, global logistics, etc. My name is Elliot Brazil and I am a Director of Pricing Strategy at NFI.

We needed a team that could help us build an internal app to help us respond to various quote requests from our clients. We required external assistance because we didn't have enough internal resources to focus on developing this internal tool ourselves.

We reached out to an established external partner with whom we collaborate on core services. They suggested Netfork as a potential partner who could assist us with our needs. The trust we had in our existing partner was crucial for starting a partnership with Netfork.

We received quote requests from our clients through a variety of channels, which is why we needed a centralized system to store all of them and process them manually. We also wanted to use that mechanism to contact external third-party services that could assist us in providing the best quotes to clients. The Netfork team collaborated closely with an existing NFI team to better understand the project's business needs and the business logic that needed to be implemented. They then produced the initial version of the previously described tool. Netfork continues to develop and maintain this project

Three to five individuals, from project management and QA to development work itself.

The initial version was successfully developed within the agreed-upon terms. Then, with the same team, we chose to continue perfecting and maintaining the tool, which we continue to do to this day.

During the development of the initial version of the tool, Netfork demonstrated the agreed upon results in a timely manner. Netfork development team received feedback from us, and implemented additional changes which enabled us to integrate them into our processes. This was crucial for maintaining good communication in future projects.

Their excellent communication skills and quick comprehension of our business requirements are impeccable. The second trait was crucial to the product's development success.

Tom Ringenbach Head of Operations Founded in 2017, VNDLY transforms how companies manage the contingent workforce. With its SaaS Vendor Management System (VMS), companies can manage the entire non-employee engagement lifecycle from talent acquisition to training to payment and offboarding. VNDLY serves as the ERP system of record for multiple Fortune 500 companies to manage their entire contingent and non-employee workforce on a single platform.

We hired Netfork after raising a round of investments. We needed to scale up our development efforts quickly by adding high-quality resources to our existing development team, so we decided to explore the options of staff augmentation through a partnership with an offshore organization such as Netfork.

Netfork reached out to us offering their services and we decided to conduct a due diligence process and determine whether they are a good fit for us. After becoming acquainted with their organization in general, as well as the candidates they proposed as the addition to our team, we decided to start the collaboration with them.

Our system initial version was built using Python/Django server-side rendered templates that were tightly coupled with our business logic, so after raising another investment round, we decided to bring in additional developers in order to start decoupling the existing system and migrating the front-end to React, while developing new features in parallel.

We were looking to add engineers with strong fundamental knowledge along with experience in any of the technologies we relied on (React or Django), so we conducted interviews that focused on those areas with live coding challenges in order to filter out the right candidates.

Through our collaboration with Netfork we initially added two experienced full-stack developers, and within a period of a couple of months increased the number of added developers to four. Over time, we have steadily been adding new resources when needed, either on the full-stack development or QA positions.

We have managed to integrate Netfork developers into our team and process seamlessly. Their developers managed to fit into our existing set up, while providing suggestions on how to improve our process and product as well.

The most impressive thing about the collaboration with Netfork is communication. We managed to communicate our needs easily in the beginning with their management, while also maintaining easy and efficient communication with all of the team members we have added to our team.

Not that I can think of.

We developed a Sales Collaboration Platform for Enterprise Sales Teams, starting with Mutual Action Plans. Our platform helps Enterprise Sales Teams build and share Mutual Action Plans, collaborate on next steps, track buyer engagement and book more revenue. There were two stages. The first stage was the development stage, in which we wanted to create an MVP dashboard, which we had already begun developing with the previous team. Our first goal was to create dashboard templates. On the backend side, we wanted to build user and admin panels. After this stage and the launch of the MVP, Netfork would continue the maintenance of the platform.

The development of panels and features was completed on time, and current maintenance is performed satisfactorily.

Built out sprints and assigned tasks to developers, very professional.

Netfork developers understood our needs from the start and demonstrated a willingness to go above and beyond the agreed-upon terms in order to solve problems. They are highly efficient and energetic individuals who are not afraid to fully own the work in a transparent manner.

There is nothing noteworthy that they could have done differently.
