Wunderdogs took on the development and support of our website along with becoming our creative partner to help us build a strong web presence and impactful campaigns for our nascent brand. While transitioning from another agency, they performed a UI/UX audit and an optimization review to pinpoint enhancements to improve the site’s performance.

Wunderdogs has been quick to resolve any issues that arise with an appropriate sense of urgency and professionalism. They are always prepared for discussions and status reporting for all outstanding work.

Virtual Meeting

Wunderdogs listens to our needs and is very flexible as some of those needs change both from a budgetary standpoint as well as accommodating the workload.

As we continue to build the brand and develop our strategic plan, hold us accountable to keep you abreast of our strategy and direction so you can continue to bring ideas to help incorporate into our website and creative presence through our advertising and marketing campaigns.

I am the Executive Director of Right To Be, a nonprofit working to end harassment -- in all its forms.

We hired them to do a re-name and re-branding process, as well as website redesign and UX review for our organization and a side project we run to address online harassment, called "HeartMob"

We interviewed three quality vendors that were recommended by a friend of our board who works in this world. WunderDogs was our favorite.

They interviewed our board and staff to establish the brand identity. Then, they went through multiple rounds of iterative designs to establish our visual identity. Then, they worked with us to finish the website in time for launch. They are now doing a UX review and wireframes for HeartMob.

We've worked with over 8 people on the team. I'm not sure of their titles.

The launch has been a huge success! People love the new name and brand. Our team is so excited. They really listened to us and the result is a product that is so distinctly us.

Their project management style was great -- we never had to manage them, they managed us. We got to give multiple rounds of feedback on everything so we felt like we co-created it with them.

They really cared about us and our mission. Also, their design is so beautiful and unique. Everything they did for us has meaning that links back to our mission and what we stand for.

No, I recommend them without reservation.

I’m the head of investor relations at Unanimous Capital, an early-stage venture fund based in Silicon Valley.

We needed help with web development.

Wunderdogs built a website for us from scratch. First, we told them what we wanted and gave them a few ideas. Then, they came back with a proposal, including a timeline divided into different phases. It included the planning phase, the intake phase, and the wireframe mock-up phase.

I don’t remember Wunderdogs’ team exactly, but it included a client relations person, their CTO, and a handful of designers and engineers. Oliver (Former Head of Client Services) was our main point of contact.

They were recommended to us by another venture firm.

We started working together in the first quarter of 2021, and we launched the site around July 2021.

We gave Wunderdogs a tremendous challenge from an aesthetic and philosophical point of view because our team had different opinions about how they thought our site should be. However, they handled the project with grace and came up with a site that everyone loved.

Wunderdogs was always on time and on top of everything. If anything was late, it was on our end; they kept their end of the bargain during the whole project. We communicated via email and phone calls, and we had regular check-ins through Zoom and Google Meet.

Wunderdogs had an impressive background in the venture capital industry, so they understood a lot of our procedural pain points that we didn’t think through when scoping the project.

It would be awesome if Wunderdogs grew — they could use a bigger team.

Come to them with ideas of what you want and let them guide the process.

I’m the head of marketing, branding, and communications for a currency trading solutions provider. We accelerate global access to frontier markets through an innovative infrastructure. By leveraging technology, we’re able to lower the costs and increase the speed of business payments to and from frontier markets, specifically Africa.

We started out as a cryptocurrency company more or less. That’s how we positioned our brand identity. As we moved away from that sector, we were looking to create a new brand and position the company alongside trade, finance, and cross-border payments. We needed to establish a new brand with a new identity.

Wunderdogs helped us through the entire rebranding process. Their team developed a position statement to describe where we stand in comparison to other players in the market. They also created a new name, which was a tall order. The name had to signify trust and reliability as well as be interesting and dynamic. On top of that, it had to be ethnically ambiguous but also have African roots. Their team did a lot of research and came up with 50 names. We went through them and thought about what names were appropriate as well as how we were positioning ourselves. We liked two names and Wunderdogs came up with different brand identities accordingly. Unfortunately, we decided to go with a third name, but their team was patient with us. They created a brand book, which included all the logos for our mother and sub-brands. Currently, we’re looking to do more work with Wunderdogs.

We worked with either four or five members of their team. Our main point of contact was the founder, but we also worked with a designer and a researcher.

A peer agency referred Wunderdogs to us. They’re a female-led company, which we thought was awesome because we love working with vendors that are also diverse and inclusive. Their team was clear about costs and came highly recommended by the peer agency that we love and work with frequently, so it made sense.

We spent between $15,000–$20,000 on their services

We hired Wunderdogs in May 2019 and finished the project in August.

Our investors love the new brand. Wunderdogs produced high-quality work and went above and beyond, especially with the naming exercises. They were communicative, transparent, and collaborative. When we felt that they disappeared during the research process, we communicated our concern and they adapted their efforts quickly. We’re a complex company with specific demands, which their team adjusted to well.

Wunderdogs was and still is responsive. In the beginning, the research process wasn’t what we expected exactly so we had a conversation with them. Then, the founder came on to manage the project herself and it was amazing.

Wunderdogs provided personalized attention. Their team really dug deep to understand our business and our clients.

When we first started working with them, we would’ve liked to see their progress more clearly. Rather than only showing us a final report, we wanted to have checkpoints along the way. Wunderdogs adapted their process quickly.

I highly recommend working with Wunderdogs. They have a really great process. If you’re not sure where to start, I would definitely recommend them.

I’m the co-founder and CEO of an education nonprofit based in Baltimore. We work with high school students and run programs on design thinking and entrepreneurship.

We had a simple Squarespace website that we needed to update. We also wanted to create a unified brand identity.

Wunderdogs designed and then launched our new website from end-to-end. The team added links, forms, hover over and clicking functionalities, and animations and graphics.

We collaborated with Daria (CEO, Wunderdogs), Natalie (Creative Director, Wunderdogs), and Olga (COO, Wunderdogs). They may have had 4–5 people in total working on the project.

Daria was a classmate of mine at business school. Shortly after she started Wunderdogs, we needed the types of services she offered, so I reached out to her. We talked about how they could customize things and make the work fit our feel. We looked at their portfolio and discussed budget constraints, and we ultimately decided to work together after that.

My company spent $15,000.

Our work with Wunderdogs was from November 2018–February 2019.

Wunderdogs did awesome work, and they did a great job personalizing things to our company. We’re happy with the website, which is well-integrated, and all of the other end products, from the one-pagers to the deck. People compliment us on the website, which makes us look more professional as an organization and really communicates what we do. We’ve also gotten good feedback on our branding and slide deck.

They did very well. We communicated via email and video calls. We also had a Google Doc to track their work, and they’d turn a task red once they finished it or use strikethrough if they couldn’t complete it.

Wunderdogs was good at listening to us and not just creating what they had in their own vision. They drove a lot of things, but when we said that something they created didn’t fit or asked them to make adjustments, they were receptive to that feedback. Their team had a really good sense of design.

Overall, they did a wonderful job. When I look back at our engagement, there are two big things I’d mention. First, it would be nice if they’d enabled us to make site changes on our own. Part of what makes the site look so nice is that it’s coded very well, but if we want to change something, a lot of it needs special coding. We can’t make simple backend fixes or updates, so there are elements of the website that have become challenging for us to keep live and updated.

Just be open and communicative. Share your thoughts, ideas, and inputs freely so that they can have that information and then design accordingly.
