SEO Review from Richard Koncz
We collaborated with Delante to support our SEO efforts as we entered the Polish market, and the experience has been excellent from the start. They helped us fine-tune our platform strategy to better reflect the expectations and behaviors of Polish customers, ensuring a much stronger local fit.They delivered SEO-optimized landing page content tailored to the Polish audience and began building a solid backlink profile for our Polish domain, laying the foundation for long-term growth. Deliveries were always prompt, communication was smooth and efficient, and their hands-on mentality truly made a difference throughout the collaboration.Highly recommended for any business looking to gain traction in a new market with a trusted and capable SEO partner.

PPC Review from Charlene James
Devenup SEO served our portfolio of around 8 PPC clients by running their ad campaigns each month and joining us on client calls to provide closed-loop reporting. They managed the ad accounts for our clients to ensure that ads and budgets were being regularly optimized and maximized for the client's results.Typically, we had a meeting with our clients once every two weeks or once a month. During this time, we'd have a specialist from Devenup SEO join our account strategist to report on the results that were experienced during the period so far as well as make any recommendations for what could be done to pivot and improve.We saw a great ROI with our clients in working together with Devenup SEO. At the time, we didn't have great in-house capabilities for paid ads/PPC so Devenup SEO was excellent at providing us with a robust strategy for our clients and setting things up for success. We would receive emailed reports from Google AdWords or Agency Analytics, depending on the client needs, be able to schedule calls with our Devenup SEO teammate, and have quarterly reporting to evaluate progress ongoing.

Big Data Analytics Review from David Abelyan
The Kanerika team helped us create online meeting capabilities to meet with candidates online, view video profiles and message. All these online features are great for our application but what makes our solution unique is that all these are tied to the candidate profile, hiring position organizational needs and overall organizational profile. This creates a strong bond and trust between the organization and the candidate.We wanted a platform to build long term relationships between organizations and their immediate and future needs and candidates who may want to explore opportunities now or build a relationship for a future opportunity. Kanerika worked with our team to understand our changing requirements and delivered technical solutions incrementally using an agile approach. Organizations can store and update their profiles, job requirements and track each hiring process.Their philosophy of investing in clients and view of client success as their own was unique. Everyone uses the long term relationship as a tagline but Kanerika actually lived up to it.

Big Data Analytics Review from Promod Sharma
Kanerika is creative and technically sound. They found the flaws in our data and fixed it. That means they are super proactive. In the end the product is great which is what we want to be the base of everything we do. Our main goal is adoption. So we measure success by seeing if our marketing and brokerage teams are using the product. At least 50% of our users should be using the dashboard, that means the product is valuable for them and we are already at 75%. In other words we have already hit our adoption goal.Apart from that we have received verbatim feedback around user satisfaction for the dashboard and its features. We have 74 offices globally and most of them have given us interesting feedback. One of them even called it a game-changer.Also the level of attention Kanerika provides is awesome. Their team does their homework. They dig deep and inspect everything about the product to make sure it will last.

Big Data Analytics Review from Sanmeet Walia
Kanerika Inc was required to build a tool for optimal testing and control analysis. After our team developed the Greedy Match algorithm, they used the running piece of code from the backend servers to design and scale the UI. We were able to use the tool immediately after its completion without experiencing any issues. In addition to internal use, we recently promoted the tool in a sales pitch to one of our clients. They complemented our team perfectly. Both parties were required for the first half of the project, so they came to our office to help us build the foundation. During the second half of the engagement, they used screen sharing technology to share their progress. The team at Kanerika Inc was patient, and they listened to all of our needs. We would occasionally make last-minute requests at odd hours, but they were always available to help us resolve the issue quickly.

Integrated Marketing Review from Rebecca Hummer
When we set out looking for an integrated marketing partner almost ten years ago, we were not sure what to expect. Catalyst dove in to help us with social media and other outreach. Soon, they were deeply integrated into our team providing a wide range of support for both ongoing marketing tasks and more focused campaigns. Their unwavering dedication to our cause, communications insights and expertise have been transformative, consistently empowering our team to achieve results exceeding our internal resources and capabilities. If you're looking for an integrated marketing agency, I can't recommend them enough.

A competent, creative and technically savvy team of people who care about their clients. We were really happy with our experience working with Catalyst. They listened to what we wanted for our business and implemented it seamlessly. From the branding overhaul and clarity, to the design of our site, technical support and design for our digital product, and finally the digital marketing campaign - everything was done professionally and with great care for our vision. Highly recommend.

Branding Review from Michael Nelson, MBA
We've worked with Catalyst for about five years (on too many projects to count) and they are enormously talented. Our project team was built around our unique goals. The collaborative process tends to feel more personal than other agencies I've worked with because of it. Project management is very communicative and on point. Their strategy, creative, and technology teams are also well-staffed and comparable to the best I've ever worked with.

I responded 3 days ago and no response. There is no name on that email and the number I tried calling gets disconnected. The operator said "I don't know what else to tell me, good luck" AND LITERALLY HUNG UP ON ME!!!!!! THAT IS NO WAY TO TREAT AN EMPLOYEE OR CUSTOMER

They placed an Ad on Craigslist recruiting people to do voice data collection for one of their products that uses siri. They Advertised they will pay $60. Every time you ask them about the money, They start trying to use a secret they think they know about you to avoid paying. They sent me about 8 forms to fill out for the $60 including the I-9 form and a w-2 form for $60. I was scheduled to be there at 9am for the study and was on time. They said 12 to 15 business days for $60. I filled papers and sent them. As I was approaching the building something was like this company be killing people and their a front for a government agency. I ignored it cause I needed the $60. I sent the paper work Oct 29th and received an email on Nov 15 saying I need to resubmit the papers. I am suppose to be receiving the money by Nov 19. IM I suppose to wait another 12-15 business days? This company is preying on people who are low on cash and participate to get cash. These people got my ss#, is picture, and voice recording that They alter and use for something else. I want my $60. UPDATE: I did receive a gift card but to AMAZON. When I signed up they stated they pay cash either through direct deposit, cash app, or visa master gift card/ nothing about any amazon. I wanted cash, like they said they would pay.
