This is a professional team whose experience is impressive!
Our company wanted to automate the process of notifying oil rig workers about their shifts. Employees often change shifts and we wanted to make this process more convenient and also move it online. We chose Five Jars for it. Being PHP-based, the scheduler is accessible online 24/7 and personnel can always keep an eye on their schedule. Administrative personnel can conduct reports on work, sign up, trade shifts and time off, and export the reports as Excel, CSV or PDF files. I was afraid my lack of technical background would make it hard for me to follow project progress but PM was brilliant. I knew what was happening at every step of the way. We had regular weekly calls with the project manager on Zoom, and the main communication was via email or Slack. -
This is a real partnership when the development team becomes part of the business.
For quite a long time we took orders by e-mail or personally from customers. It took a lot of time, as we either made layouts by hand or printed them according to the vague requirements of clients. All these difficulties have pushed us to take a step towards the digital transformation of our business. Development of the backend system allowed to reduce hand work time for business operators 4 times. We continue to actively work with Five Jars - the guys have a huge number of ideas on how to improve all processes of our production. The command tries to improve the internal data processing processes for our site, as we now receive ten times more daily data than ever. We consider the introduction of a new product type - photo books with a variety of settings. This is our next step in digital transformation. We communicated on Skype and chatted in Slack, also Trello and Jira were used to track progress. I can easily interact with the team, since we have no problems with the language barrier and the guys are always ready to listen to my requests. The team is not afraid to take on difficult tasks, since many years of experience are on their side. -
Five Jars is very easy to work with! Recommend!
I am the owner of an e-learning platform focused on personal lessons and tutoring. At the beginning of the pandemic, I decided to improve the quality of its work and introduce new features following the latest e-learning trends. I was looking for companies that had experience with large educational platforms. There are some really big players in the eLearning market in the Five Jars portfolio, so I trusted their development experience. Our platform has become more attractive to users. Over the past year, we have noticed a significant increase in daily visits, so much so that we even had to change hosting. Five Jars helped us with that too. Five Jars is very easy to work with! Recommend! -
I love working with professionals when I don't have to dive into a whole area that I don't know.
My wife and I came up with this startup at a time when we got tired of searching the Internet every weekend for events where we could entertain our children. At that moment, we decided to make a website that would collect information about events in our city and facilitate the process of finding family entertainment. We decided to start with our community and, if successful, make separate versions of sites for other cities. Studying the details of web development, I realized that Drupal is a fast and reliable solution for our startup. So I studied several ratings of Drupal development companies and found Five Jars in each of them. I'm satisfied with the MVP we've done with the Five Jars team. I am currently looking for an investor for this project. I love working with professionals when I don't have to dive into a whole area that I don't know. Working with the Five Jars was a real partnership where the other side fulfilled their obligations without my constant checks. I think the team needs to expand the development staff because sometimes the implementation of a feature was delayed due to other projects. -
They are open to ideas and willing to innovate themselves!
I worked in the luxury goods industry for a long time and realized that for the modern buyer there is not enough of something like a marketplace where luxury goods from different manufacturers would be collected. This would help save the buyer time and organize the purchase of all luxury items in one place. I chose Five Jars because of their price tag, attractive social media, and an office close to my home. Right now our MVP is ready for testing. It looks great and I think we will be ready to present the project to the world in a couple of months. Now I am looking for a more profitable hosting option for the aggregator. Five Jars easily integrate their team into any idea, startup or company. They are open to ideas and willing to innovate themselves. They are also really at the forefront of technological innovation! -
The team has an impressive combination of technical skills, business intelligence, and excellent communication!
We were looking for a solution to automate the booking services in our beauty salons. Initially, we wanted to buy a ready-made SaaS solution from those that already exist on the market, but none of them seemed comfortable, scalable in the format of our business, modern and appropriate. Five Jars were chosen due to the fact that they have implemented similar cases for businesses from other industries. We introduce the system in stages in each of our salons, so far there is no significant statistics data. We also plan to bring our solution to the market as SaaS. The team has an impressive combination of technical skills, business intelligence, and excellent communication! -
It was a productive partnership.
We develop an internal corporate culture and culture of learning in the sales department. For more productive interaction, we decided to create a platform for internal surveys. Five Jars developed an internal application for us from several modules: the Survey Template Builder allows us to quickly assemble any survey from existing templates, the survey distribution tools are integrated with our mail and allow us to send out bulk survey invitations, and the survey management module allows us to collect and organize response data and then presents them in the form of diagrams in PDF format. I appreciate their experience and rational approach to evaluating their work: they did not promise anything that they could not deliver. It was a productive partnership. -
Five Jars is a team of professionals with many years of experience.
Our company produces and promotes entertainment channels on YouTube, such as a variety of content about creativity, quick handmade, channels dedicated to various ratings, channels with animated stories, and so on. We decided to create a small internal video editor that would allow us to quickly create this type of content so that producers could do it themselves without delegating these tasks to editors. This is a tool for internal use, so it's unlikely I can provide any detailed details. In any case, we saved quite a lot of time for our editors and automated the video publishing process. This greatly helps us expand our channels faster and helps us gain subscribers and distribute content. Five Jars is a team of professionals with many years of experience. They don't go into a long learning phase but quickly move into development with a sufficient number of experienced developers. We appreciate the speed of implementing solutions, so this team turned out to be a godsend for us. -
The Five Jars team has helped us focus on what we do best: cooking and keeping customers happy!
Our family restaurant caters to the needs of vegans, vegetarians and people who maintain a healthy lifestyle. Since we are implementing a subscription delivery system, every week the team of chefs changes their menu, and new sets of dishes are combined and published on our website. Having collected all incoming orders, we manually created a table with all customers and their orders. Before the list was passed to the kitchen team, the ordered dishes were broken down into ingredients and eventually prepared by the kitchen. All this took a huge amount of time and had to be automated. Initially, the Five Jars team acted as business analysts and studied all our processes in order to automate them effectively. Now, most of the preliminary work is done automatically, and not manually: the panel itself adapts and organizes orders, prioritizes them for chefs and builds delivery routes. Also, the panel now generates labels for orders with filled in addressee data. But the most valuable thing for us is that the team has developed a solution for automatically separating dishes from sets into individual ingredients. This allows you to transfer finished lists to the kitchen without manual labor. I used to work with a list of ingredients in Excel spreadsheets. These lists were cumbersome and inconvenient. We are already using the MVP version of the new admin panel. Now the process of creating a list of food packages takes a few seconds instead of several hours, which can be done with a single click. There is no need for handwritten labels on food boxes, saving us a lot of time and effort. Delivery couriers are now faster and more efficient. Processing orders in the system does not take much time. -
Streaming music web library for video creators
I am an electronic musician, producer, music label owner and record label owner. Having worked in the music industry for many years, I know how difficult it is to promote music products and distribute them to customers. The main goal was to create a platform with the ability for artists to upload their music tracks. Users who require background music (such as YouTubers, bloggers and other content creators) can choose a subscription plan of their liking or buy tracks one at a time. The platform also includes a large library of license-free tracks. Artists receive royalties for their work, and creators can use quality music at affordable prices. It's like Shutterstock, but for musicians! I was looking for a developer who could implement my idea. I found Five Jars in the Clutch ratings and decided to pick them for their price per hour and an office in LA where I can go if I want to. Now my platform includes over 100 genres and over 1000 music tracks and effects. In the near future, I plan to scale this startup and add not only the roles of musicians and users but also other music labels. It was an incredible experience interacting with the development team! The guys from Five Jars really understood the specifics of the music industry and they were always open to my suggestions. -
Fitness system for a private fitness club
One of my developer friends used to work with developers from this company. He recommended them to me, saying that they have similar development experience in the fitness industry. At the time I started working with the Five Jars team, I had a system of two mobile applications and a website that is used to upload content to applications. The applications are built more or less well, but the main problem with the site is that it was poorly coded, so the site did not work correctly. This site had to be recreated. The Five Jars development team rebuilt the site from scratch, implementing all the features I needed and increasing the speed of the entire fitness system. They did not work with mobile applications, only with the web platform, but the system works perfectly. It's hard for me to say exactly what they did with the site code, but now users with the administrator role can control almost anything on the site. Users with the role of a fitness trainer create personal training programs, upload videos, and can chat with fitness club clients. Users-clients of the fitness club can enter data about their status in the club, open training records available to them, ask questions to the trainer and pay for new tariff plans. Our fitness system started to work much faster. Now it can handle a load of hundreds of users at once. Many of our clients have decided to try remote training from home using our updated system. -
Processes automation for packaging industry company
We needed to create a web application for customers that would make it easier and more convenient to order the necessary materials (various types of packaging), track stock balances and find out the current status of their orders. For a long time, we used spreadsheets for databases and the company's customers sent their orders in Excel or CSV format, and this was processed manually by the company's specialist. It was inconvenient for us and for our clients. With the onset of the pandemic, the demand for carton packaging has skyrocketed as a large number of purchases have been made online. Our goal was to simplify and speed up the experience of our customers in ordering and customizing carton packaging as much as possible. The Five Jars team has done a great job taking our first steps in digital transformation with us. We have gone from spreadsheets to a stunning modern product. We receive a huge amount of feedback from our loyal customers that the experience with our production has improved significantly. Our production was also able to attract several new big customers thanks to an attractive package customization tool. -
They dive into the project deep, suggest ideas and implement them.
I am a professional artist who is part of a community of professional painters, decorators and frames. Our team strives to make it easier for businesses and individuals to purchase and collect art. Our community launched a startup selling contemporary art and customizing frames and glass for that. We needed an e-commerce site with the ability to customize the attributes of paintings and sculptures. We were looking for a provider with similar cases in the art industry. On the Five Jars website, we saw that the team has experience in implementing a project for George Washington's Mount Vernon. The Five Jars team made it a goal to reduce the number of processes associated with the purchase of works of art. Our e-commerce website is dedicated to selling paintings and custom frames to art consultants and interior designers. The site is based on simple Drupal CMS software and an e-commerce plugin. The user can find a list of paintings with a detailed description, including the author, sizes, materials, prices, and then add the picture with the glass and frame they like. The designer of the team created a modern and attractive design based on our wishes - it does not look catchy and does not distract attention from the paintings. The team met the deadline for the estimates they made for us at the very beginning of the project. The site looks amazing and our community is now working to grow this business. We are planning to add an NFT purchase to the site shortly, so our partnership with Five Jars continues. -
Online floral shop and delivery
I’m the founder of the flower company. I wanted to implement an online sale and delivery of flowers from my flower store. Before the pandemic, we were not represented online, but now it has become a convenient way to do business. I needed a development team that would be able to create a workable product in a short time so that we would be presented online as soon as possible. A friend referred Five Jars to me because he had worked with them; he said they have great technical quality and communication skills. We found them in several ratings of web developers and decided to choose this team. The Five Jars team has developed an online flower store with an admin panel and user profiles. As an administrator, I can change item cards, add or remove them, accept payments, and track the status of an order. The users can make an online purchase of any item, edit their profile and track the delivery status. The team used Drupal to create the store, and they also implemented a Stripe payment system. The design team has created a modern and lightweight design that reflects the concept of buying flowers as a daily pleasure. Ultimately, the Five Jars team built our online store even faster than we expected. It already works and brings online orders daily. We have significantly increased our revenue through our online presence. -
Online education platform with multilingualism
The Five Jars team developed a multilingual web platform and an admin panel in addition to the mobile application that our team developed for the end customer. The admin role has been implemented and this allows the end customer to create marketing campaigns and inform the admin of the success of the campaign. More precisely, the Five Jars developers have integrated third-party marketing analytics to offer advanced A / B testing and seamless integration of online marketing tools. The team also implemented a user role and a personal account, from which the consumer can edit their profile, manage course subscriptions, as well as track the lesson schedule and do homework. To offer the greatest possible functionality, Five Jars integrated various third-party services such as user identification and payment gateways.
