Client

Confidential

San Diego, United States of America

Project Summary

The vendor developed a web- and iOS-based driveway rental platform from provided wireframes and mock-ups, including an e-commerce/payment component. The engagement experienced significant timeline delays and coding bugs; the client ultimately received the source code, but key e-commerce APIs and payment features beyond PayPal were not implemented. The client reports limited communication during the project and outstanding fixes required before launch.

Key Challenges

Build a web- and iOS-based platform for driveway rental.
Implement robust e-commerce payment APIs and features beyond PayPal.
Meet an expected three-month timeline and provide consistent project communication.

Project Deliverables

Web platform
App Store approval
PayPal payment integration
Source code

Project Solution

Agicent programmed the web and iOS applications from the client's wireframes and design mock-ups, implemented the e-commerce/payment component (PayPal integration), and obtained App Store approval for the iOS app. The vendor acted on designs provided by the client, executed development tasks, and delivered the project source code at the client's request.

Project Outcome

The project was significantly delayed (promised 3 months, took nearly a year).
The vendor released the source code to the client.
The e-commerce component lacked the APIs and payment features the client expected and only included PayPal integration.
The client could not launch until a new developer fixed outstanding bugs, and the vendor requested a $300 monthly maintenance fee to enable site edits.

Quality of Deliverables

“While the initial delivery faced delays and coding bugs, Agicent App Company built trust over time. They stayed in direct communication to answer any concerns and ultimately provided cost-effective ways to build each version of the solution. To date, they completed the project per the agreements. This review was originally 3.5-stars overall. It was updated by the client on March 30, 2020. The vendor's response is included.”
