We needed an outside firm to help us raise the quality of our SaaS product and address many know friction points in our workflows.

They were able to onboard quickly and were able to meet with all of our key stakeholders and learn about our app and challenges without any challenges. Good collaboration and communication has been seen since the beginning of the project. Many designs and iterations have been delivered and I have happy internal stakeholders.

Yes, everything has been on-time and they have been flexible with changing priorities and have gone with the flow nicely on our team.

I really like Ivan, Orest and Anastasia as people and I feel that we are getting good contribution from Anastasia as well as a good vibes as a strong partner.

The initial sales convo was pretty focused on starting with a design audit which I understand given that I've managed Design engagements myself but that rigidity wasn't fully aligned with our actual needs, budget or timelines. The real need that I had was to get going quickly on collaboration and see if this relationship was one that we could extend and live with for a while. That all said, the Quarte engagement pivoted toward collaboration in a short amount of time now we're working on T&M with a partner we trust and love.

Our team used QU'ARTE services and teams to product design one of the products from the ground up. QU'ARTE was responsible for the whole product design stage, starting with product strategy and vision and ending with prototyping the interface of the entire solution.

QU'ARTE had required domain expertise (healthcare) to ramp up within our internal team relatively quickly. They understood the product, the customer, and the goals. They communicated effectively, and besides just being great designers, their UI/UX people managed to understand our business very well.

We had a perfect time working with their Product Design Lead - Ivan, and the Delivery Manager working with us was very professional, too. QU'ARTE was delivering as a part of our existing product team, and we were happy to integrate them into our current delivery processes. Our team had a great experience working together.

QU'ARTE strives to design for users. They consider every UX aspect. Their team was very open to talking not only to our engineering and product teams but also with the end users of the product to understand their challenges and find the best ways to solve them with a digital solution.

The design team provided design services for Android and iOS developers, and website developer. They coordinated changes and schedules with the Product Manager and the QA team. One of the best outcomes was a redesign of the interface using native elements. I had tried using North American based design teams, much more expensive design teams, and this organization stood their ground and strongly suggested a rework was needed. This turned out to be sound advice.

Budget estimates were accurate. Improvements to user experience were promised and I believe that promise was kept. The development was done at a much lower cost. At the beginning of development I did not understand how much more the custom elements from previous design teams would inflate development costs and slow time to market. This was one team that proactively wanted the technology and project to succeed more than they wanted billeable hours. It has been a great fit for us.

For the most part the estimates were very accurate. Project Management communication was generally pretty clear. There were very few cultural differences that caused issues with the work that was done.

They've taken the existing design and been adamant about meeting my goals for a 'wow' experience much better than the three other desings that were already done, but they could do it with much faster development using native elements. That turned out to be accurate. Time and time again I've been helped to have similar suggestions, that have helped made the product better.

I wish they never had any turnover, but that isn't realistic! They may have been slow to react to some of the wage inflation that hit eastern European service providers during boom years. This maybe caused a little higher turnover than other providers. Generally, their standards for talent replacement a pretty good when turnover does happen.
