ChicMic Studios

I’m the owner of RemindMyLife Pty Ltd. We’re a technical builder and lifestyle time management app.

We needed help with the technical development of our application.

For our initial project, ChicMic built the backend of the frontend that I designed for this app. The team developed the functionality of each button on the app, which was relative to a moving time code. For instance, if someone worked over 10 hours, the code would change from orange to red, notifying the person using the app that they were in the red zone and needed to take a break.

We worked with a project manager and 2–3 technical teammates from ChicMic.

We found ChicMic on Upwork. We chose them because they had the techniques and capabilities we needed to build this product. We had already started working with someone in Australia, but they couldn’t complete the build because it was too technical for them. We needed a more technical development team who could write the code and make it functional.

For our initial project, we spent around $5,000 AUD on the app and around $500 AUD on the website.

We started working with ChicMic in August 2017, and the development concluded the same year. Although the project concluded, we've done other projects with them since then.

The quality of ChicMic’s work was excellent. Without them, we wouldn’t have gotten the app live. The app was on the store until two years ago when I decommissioned it because I didn’t want to pay for all the updates. Still, it had nothing to do with ChicMic; the team fulfilled everything required on that project.

ChicMic was very prompt in correcting everything, as well as very easy to communicate with. We used Upwork, Skype, and Google Meet to communicate.

I would like to give a shout-out to Manpreet, Manish, Sahil, Varun, and Vinod.

They were able to work out anything.

There was nothing ChicMic could do differently. They even provided support after launching the product, so everything was good.

Be prepared and know as much detail as possible about your requirements. If you’re clear on your requirements, ChicMic will give you a clear timeline for completion.

I'm the CPO of a global education company using games for English language acquisition as a second language.

We hired ChicMic to create a series of games that recreated our offline lessons in a virtual environment. This includes an authoring tool and lesson navigation tool, as well as game engines for producing 1000's of game instances, and hundreds of lessons.

We found ChicMic on Upwork, and selected them for their level of professionalism, existing excellent track record, and competitive offer.

We provided game designs to ChicMic, with specifications (not overly technical) and demo videos / mockups. After first building out the virtual classroom and a few sample games, we proceeded to build an authoring tool and the rest of the games.

We had a dedicated team of 10-12 resources, including multiple front and back-end developers, project manager, and QA.

Our games and lessons are working smoothly and as planned, we regularly get excellent feedback from customers about them.

The communication between our team and ChicMic was very open, with a high level of trust. We implemented a second QA check on our side with reporting mechanisms that operated smoothly, and they were always available to support related processes such as backend setup and complex integrations with other software in multiple timezones.

I'm so impressed that ChicMic reliably honor their commitments. This was a huge project that was much more time intensive than first anticipated, but they stuck it out and continued to deliver a quality product, taking us through a successful completion and handover. We couldn't've found a more trustworthy partner than ChicMic.

In a project of this size, scope creep does appear over time, and pressure to move faster. ChicMic were extremely reasonable about all issues, so we easily found agreement when processes could be tweaked, develop items were in or out-of-scope, and so on.

I am the founder of an indie game company

I had a prototype of a mobile casual game written in Unity that looked terrible. I wanted a complete UI make-over to make the game fun, friendly, and well branded

I posted the job description on upwork and many candidates submitted a proposal. Over a few weeks, I interviewed all the candidates and decided that ChicMic had the most experience and the most reasonable cost

We had 3 phases:

3 resources:

The app has no launched yet, but very pleased with the results.

ChicMic was willing to adopt to my project management style, so I implemented Jira and a weekly standup.

We were impressed by their dedication and willingness to go the extra mile for their client.

I’m the Owner of Funko international. Our organization works on projects related to casinos.

I have worked on many projects before with different organizations. I was looking for a development company to build casino related apps and websites. We hired ChicMic to develop Casino projects/ affiliate projects and an in-house website and they always deliver the projects with quality and given timeline.

We have searched for many companies and interviewed different companies including ChicMic. After discussion with the team we feel ChicMic is a best fit for our requirements as they understand the requirements quickly and give us a perfect solution.

ChicMic has helped us design and build the Apps and websites. As for the design work, we’ve used Figma to design the app and websites including storyboards and user stories. We have used Native iOS and Android platforms for Mobile apps and Angular and React for the Web. We continue to work with ChicMic on applying key updates to our software.

We have worked with about 10-12 developers to develop different projects. ChicMic’s team includes senior frontend and backend developers and UI/UX designers. We’ve been mainly in touch with Nitish (Project Manager)

The Casino websites they’ve built for us is phenomenal — it looks and works exactly as envisioned.

For communication, we just used Skype as it was convenient for us and they always respond quickly and are available for discussion whenever required.

Their knowledge, technical expertise, and communication skills have been exceptional, which is why we continue to work with them. Also, they respond extremely fast despite the difference in time zones.

No, they’ve done a perfect job so far.

I’m the CEO of Samaniego Group. Our organization caters to the tech, real estate, and insurance sectors.

We hired them to develop software that would be used for the hospitality industry.

ChicMic has built tracking software for us from scratch. In the beginning, we talked with them and went back and forth on many different concepts, ideas, and layouts to figure out how to create what we wanted. After that, they proceeded with the development and design process and eventually built a working prototype for us. They also helped design our logo and Android application.

We work with five different people, but we’ve been mainly in touch with Rakesh (Technical Lead).

We came across them on Upwork.

We’ve invested about $10,000.

We started working with them in February 2019, and our collaboration is still ongoing.

The prototype they’ve built for us is phenomenal — it looks and works exactly as envisioned.

They’ve met all deadlines and stayed on budget. For communication, we just use Skype.

Their knowledge, technical expertise, and communication skills have been exceptional, which is why we continue to work with them. Also, they respond extremely fast despite the difference in time zones.

No, they’ve done a perfect job so far.

If you're looking to build a concept for technology within their space, we definitely recommend working with them.
