We were able to put our MVP into production within 3 months of inception and continue to issue new releases on a regular basis. This has allowed us to capture new clients on an ongoing basis.
The breadth and depth of talent that they have on tap is impressive, account management is also excellent - if any issues arose, they were swiftly dealt with in a positive manner.”

When clients win, we win. Insights straight from our clients
We were working on a project to roll out our product to the US. Part of the project involved developing a new payments architecture. For this we have four engineering teams focusing on different areas of the architecture.
The Vention team members worked successfully within the teams to successfully deliver a quality solution (very low number of bugs) on schedule. I was satisfied with the quality of the work carried out by Ventions engineers."

We initially hired Vention to design and develop a new mobile application and that evolved into an ongoing full-stack relationship. We were very happy with the initial specification, the design prototypes and the accuracy of time estimates on the sprints. The app was completed and we decided to continue the relationship. The app is still in beta mode however we are well on the way on the 2.0 release.
We are very pleased with the work they have produced for us and continue to provide quality work for us.”
