Project Summary

Roweb Development provided long-term development support for a recruitment company's vendor-managed system (VMS), repairing and rebranding the platform, building a desktop platform and two responsive mobile apps, and implementing VAT-automation and other custom features. The engagement has been ongoing since 2013 and produced work that helped the client win major contracts and deliver significant cost savings to their customers. The team is detail-oriented and communicative, though timelines can require active client management.

Quality of Deliverables

“The development work helped the client secure two major contracts. Roweb Development pays close attention to detail, ensuring high-quality work. However, that means that clients need to help manage the project timeline. Nevertheless, they’re an exceptionally talented team.”
