Case

Telkey Solutions

Developers Shore handles all front-end development for Telkey Solutions’ web and mobile platforms. Telkey Solutions, which specializes in mobile temporary access codes (mTAC) and related locks, hired Developers Shore to manage some subsystems of their SaaS platform.

The decision was driven by the need for specialized, flexible developers to support a small, fast-paced team.  Over nearly two years, the part-time developers from Developers Shore has successfully added features, reduced bug reports, and increased user growth, while also improving internal app efficiency.

Jim Theorell, CTO

For what projects did your company hire Developers Shore, and what were your goals?

We decided to bring in Developers Shore to deal with some of the subsystems for our SaaS platform. The goal was to get specialized developers that can help us in a flexible way where we don’t have the time or expertise in-house. We work in a small team and aim to release new features quickly. It’s simply too hard hiring someone that fits the role fast enough in-house.

How did you select Developers Shore and what were the deciding factors?

The local contact made all the difference, having someone in the same city who has the responsibility for the consultants gave us the confidence to start working with Developers Shore.

How have you made it successful working with a part-time developer for almost two years now?

Working with a small team, we occasionally face short-term interruptions due to dependencies between different parts. However, the part-time developer from Developers Shore has been highly flexible, adjusting their schedule to accommodate our workload.

Can you share any measurable outcomes of working with Kostiantyn?

Since Kostiantyn joined our team and started working on our customer app, we have successfully added several features, significantly reduced the number of bug reports, and experienced substantial growth in our user count. Additionally, Kostiantyn has played a crucial role in improving the efficiency of our internal app, resulting in significantly reduced handling times for lock deliveries.

What are your best recommendations for working with remote developers in successful projects?

Make sure that the developers understand the context of their work. This enables them to provide valuable suggestions, identify improvements, and identify time-saving opportunities that may have been missed in the task specification.

What do you prefer when it comes to working with remote developers compared with employed developers?

The way I can get the competence I need at the moment. That way I don’t have to adapt the product after what competence we have in-house, but rather what developer skills the product needs.
