    They’re certainly there to make your project even better than you’d envisioned. The fact that their owner was willing to dedicate the time to have an extended conversation with me really reflected their work ethic and integrity. That’s what stood out to me the most. Additionally, even though the work was done pro bono, they never made me feel like they were doing it as a donation to the organization. The way they treated me was amazing, as though I were a paying customer.

    Each individual in their team was invested in us personally. There was genuine interest from them as they worked to understand us as a business & how the project was going to impact our operations. It didn’t only make me comfortable working with them; it also showed they had a better understanding of what the tool was going to be. They didn’t just crank out a product that they’d hand to us before they let us go on our way, there was a personal touch from all the people who worked on the project.

    We’re impressed by their ability to take our ideas and create something unique and develop something truly amazing. They also know exactly what we need. More importantly, they have a huge amount of integrity which a lot of developers take for granted these days. Their trustworthiness is something that’s good for our business considering that COVID-19 really hit us hard.

    Savas Labs went above and beyond and built a cohesive design that we could leverage in other parts of the business. They truly absorbed and understood our audience — they had never met our users, but they cared about our customer’s experience. The team dug deep to understand how the platform would be used and factored that into their designs. As such, they gave us excellent recommendations. Another thing that impressed us was how thoughtfully they approached the website redesign.

    They migrated our React and Gatsby website to a WordPress platform. We provided the design but they built out the frontend and hooked it up to a CMS for us to use. Savas Labs was able to deliver what we asked on time and on budget. We’ve gotten good feedback from the design and developer communities we’re a part of. Our customers were also happy with what they saw, too. They're an easy-going team that understood what we were asking for.

    We needed independent support for my internal web development team, helping to build a starting point for learning about the topic. Savas Labs efficiently and creatively executed the project against a tight timeline. Agility distinguishes Savas Labs from other providers. Their team was flexible and creative. They cohesively and capability put all of a project’s pieces together. Their team took a 30,000-foot view with us and saw the project’s nuances and put those pieces together.

    We have a trusted partnership with them and we know they can jump in and collaborate easily with our teams. They also give us recommendations and push back for the best technical approach, especially since they know the ins and outs of Drupal. They came through on that. They're incredibly collaborative, open, and honest in their communication. The team is very solutions-focused and will get to an end result that'll work for everyone.

    Savas Labs has been the best experience I’ve had with any web design company. They’re truly about being a partner in how one plans their technology. They’re willing to do research to help us see things with a fresh perspective by providing us with options. Their team values being part of our strategy.

    Review Date: 12 May, 2022
    Savas Labs built our new website in Drupal 9. They handled front-and backend development. We went through extensive design iterations. They connected the site to a SQL server database that we manage ourselves (they were one of the few vendors that was able to clearly explain how they'd do that). Our internal team and external collaborators all love the website so far. Their design team was very responsive to our suggestions and changes.
