What challenge were you trying to address with Matrix Media Solutions (P) Ltd.?

We wanted to develop a mobile application for navigation within our premises. Our goal was to produce a fully functional app along with its proper documentation. 

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Matrix Media Solutions (P) Ltd. started documenting and preparing the app's wireframes. After we confirmed the wireframes, the team designed and developed the app. Our mobile app is cross-platform for iOS and Android devices, and I think the team used React Native. Matrix Media Solutions (P) Ltd. integrated a map into our application where we highlighted interesting points in the park. Users can locate themselves within the app and get directions to reach these interest points.f

I had one main point of contact, although I don't know how many teammates worked on the project.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked with Matrix Media Solutions (P) Ltd. from December 2022–December 2023. The team completed the app in the middle of 2023 and offered technical support for four months after the app's launch. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

We had an excellent response to our mobile app. We installed QR codes at the park's gates so visitors could install the app. We noticed our visitors use the app when they come to the park and usually uninstall it after they leave. Although we may not have high installation numbers on application stores, our download numbers were good. We had a four-star rating in application stores. Matrix Media Solutions (P) Ltd. met our expectations.

How did Matrix Media Solutions (P) Ltd. perform from a project management standpoint?

Matrix Media Solutions (P) Ltd. delivered work on budget and almost on time. Our app required on-field demonstrations, and after fixing some things, the team finished the app almost on deadline. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

Matrix Media Solutions (P) Ltd. had a diverse development team with different areas of expertise. When we stumbled on something, the team gave me good guidance and sorted things out. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

I can't mention anything for the team to improve.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m a mediator and trainer at John Ford and Associates. My company’s primary focus is mediation and training at the workplace to help people resolve conflict. Over the years, I’ve expanded beyond pure mediation and started selling cards I use at work as a peacemaker and mediator.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Matrix Media Solutions (P) Ltd.?

I hired Matrix Media to develop the app version of my cards. For context, they took over from a previous development company that I used to start the development. That company got bought out by another company and handed me off to another team. My experience with that team was difficult — they weren’t professional and couldn’t do what I asked them to do. I did get version one of my app, but I was unhappy, so I switched to the Matrix Media team.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Matrix Media started developing the app by migrating it to Node.js. They worked on the previous developer’s code, advising me that if something went wrong and they couldn’t figure it out, it would be much easier to rebuild the app. The team also advised me on a more suitable program to use. 

I came up with a monetization strategy where we’d give the app to users for free for a week. After a week, we’d give participants the option to either subscribe for $0.99 per month or to purchase the app outright for $18.99. We also developed a referral program where if a user made a referral, their free usage would be extended by a month. 

The monetization strategy was put in place, but it wasn’t working. I asked Pritam (Head of Key Accounts & Creative) if they had anyone on their team who could brainstorm with me about the monetization strategy. He got back to me and referred me to Abhishek (VP). We then had a meeting and talked about Abhishek’s ideas for monetization. 

I told them I was thinking about using ChatGPT, and Abhishek reviewed what we could do. He said he had a lightbulb moment about the project. As a result, we developed a model where users get points from the app, making it similar to a gaming experience. Users would get the app for free upon download and receive points. We also changed the referral system and gave it three levels with different points.

In other words, users could still get the app for free, but to keep using it, they’d have to keep buying points or make referrals — the person who made the referral would get 100 points, and the person referred would get 150 points. This motivated users to refer other users to get extra points. We also worked on graphics where users would be given a heart-shaped tank that would get fuller and fuller when they earned points. 

At present, we’re working on the app’s notification system that prompts people and checks in on them weekly. Meanwhile, around 600 people have downloaded the app, but only 30 have made purchases, so conversion is a challenge. To fix this, Matrix Media and I have built a system where an auto-responder system will kick into action the moment a user downloads the app. It will guide them around how the app works. We’ll also create educational content about empathy and emotional intelligence.

What is the team composition?

I mainly interface with Pritam and Abhishek. However, other people work on the project, including a UX designer, a React Native developer, a Node.js developer, a business analyst, and a DevOps engineer.

How did you come to work with Matrix Media Solutions (P) Ltd.?

I was unhappy during my work with the previous developer, so I reached out to a friend who I knew was developing an app. The person was interested but didn’t have the capacity to do what my app required. As a result, he referred me to Matrix Media. That was when our relationship started. 

How much have you invested with them?

I’ve invested $8,000–$10,000. 

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in February 2023, and the engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

My experience with Matrix Media has been phenomenal. They’ve taken professionalism to another level in terms of responsiveness. They stay up late to accommodate me since I’m in California and they’re in India. Moreover, they’re friendly and take ownership of my app, showing me that they understand their responsibilities.

Their skills have also been great. The team has fixed the problems that the previous developers couldn’t resolve. As a result, I feel excited about the app again — they’re taking everything to the next level. 

How did Matrix Media Solutions (P) Ltd. perform from a project management standpoint?

Pritam and Abhishek have been wonderful. Abhishek is the mastermind behind the new monetization breakthrough. Because of their work, I am confident in my product and their technical ability. They’re always looking for ways to make my requests happen. They’ve been creative at finding solutions. 

Pritam is a great team leader. He coordinates everything. When I send an email, he always gets back to me through Zoom, Google Meet, and chats. Moreover, the team is realistic in terms of timelines — they’ve managed my expectations well. We’re moving in the right direction at a good pace. They keep showing me signs of their work and tell me whenever they have a holiday. Overall, everything is well-coordinated and managed. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

The engagement has been a truly wonderful experience for me. I’ve got my passion back, and I’m hopeful and excited about the project. I’ve got great hopes for the product in terms of what it can do. Moreover, I truly feel like we’re a team now. I’m truly happy with their services. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, there aren’t any. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Matrix Media is trustworthy and professional. The best way to handle a partnership with them is to communicate and be upfront about your needs. In our engagement, I’ve been quite hands-on, even though I’m not a technical person. They’ve given me the space I need to give my input. They take ownership of the project without depriving me of my voice. Overall, you have to speak up for what you want and trust them — they’ll help you achieve it.
