Project Summary

Unified Infotech built a custom web and mobile service-booking platform using Node.js, Angular and React Native. The client provided Figma designs and expected a marketable product within a 5–6 month timeline, but the delivered product contained numerous bugs and functional issues. The engagement extended to over a year without a successful launch, and the client ultimately hired a new team and spent additional funds to remediate the code and quality issues.

Key Challenges

Build the entire software product for a brand-new startup.
Implement both web and mobile versions from provided Figma designs.
Deliver a functioning product suitable to take to market within the planned timeline.

Project Solution

The vendor was contracted to build the client's entire software for web and mobile from provided Figma designs. They implemented the backend with Node.js and the web frontend with Angular, and developed the mobile application using React Native. The work was organized into milestones with an intended 5–6 month delivery timeline; the vendor staffed the project with six developers plus a project manager and QA tester.

Project Outcome

The delivered product was riddled with bugs and did not function as expected.
The timeline extended from the planned 5–6 months to over a year.
The client was unable to launch the product due to code quality and functional issues.
The client hired a new team and spent tens of thousands more to fix the product.

Quality of Deliverables

“Unified Infotech delivered the platform riddled with bugs and did not function well as expected, making the client extend the working months to fix the issues. Despite having in-house testers, some bugs and clear items were still overlooked, ultimately leading to a negative review for the vendor.”
