The most dishonest company with whom I've ever had the displeasure of working.

Worst mistake I've ever made was hiring these bozos. Stay away, these two are atrocious.

We are currently in a very serious dispute with DJangoForce (Jason Martin, Richie Ward, and Patrick Falvey). We are out many tens of thousands of dollars with only a partially completed product in hand. We are considering and probably will pursue litigation to recover our losses. Let me say also that in 25 years of business, I have never had a dispute that I could not resolve amicably; never sued anyone nor been sued- until now. We selected DJangoForce because they represented themselves as skilled and experienced developers who had a track record of bringing projects in on budget and within schedule. We furnished an extremely detailed and thought-through scope of work which they reviewed and accepted. The project is a client-facing, online insurance premium quoting system with database integration. They assured us they understood and were capable of building what we needed within the budget they proposed. We accepted. Their estimate to complete the project was between $56,700 - $83,160, within 4 to 6 months. To date we have spent $95,000 and have only a partially functioning product. Regarding the first part of the project, the quoting system, when we requested they refused to deliver and install it or even transfer the code to our server unless we paid them additional monies at their hourly rate; this is after paying them $95,000. Eventually they did transfer the code for free, but only after we brought an attorney into the process. However, we are having to pay our own technicians to get the quoting system to function on our servers and it is not complete. Regarding the other element of the project, the integration with our database, they were simply unable to deliver it. When I inquired about the cost and time overrun some months ago, we were told they had hit a snag(s) with the integration and that was why the project was late and over budget. At that time, on two calls that I was personally involved in, we were assured they had resolved it and that the project would be completed “next week” (in their own words). At one point, this was used as a reason for us to authorize additional payments. We accepted the overrun explanation at that time and paid the additional monies. Shortly thereafter, for the first and only time, they asked for additional monies for what I consider to be minor changes of scope of work; we agreed and paid. Then right before another deadline for the completion of the project, we were informed that the integration development was still not functioning properly and they would do no more work on it without more payment (hourly billing). To refresh, we had paid $95,000 for a project budgeted at between $56,700 - $83,160 with NO functioning product delivered. This has been their pattern for 6 months. This is where and why our relationship broke down. The Bottom line: I can only conclude that we were oversold on their abilities initially, but much worse, on the incremental progress they claimed to be making as we were asked to pay more and more. It was always- “we’ve made it work, we’re on the five yard line.” But we were not even at mid field. Still we believed, and paid more. DJangoForce claims that they have provided hundreds of “unbilled” hours on this project which led to their unwillingness to finish the project without more money, but they refused to even provide a time allocation of how they spent the hours, on which parts of the project, etc.; nor provide an outline of what is working and not working, and why. In a phone conference in which I was present, they told us that this would be a “waste of time” for them.We are reasonable people. I attest that this accounting is a careful and accurate summary of our interaction with DJangoForce/Jason Martin, Richie Ward, and Patrick Falvey on this project. Selecting developers to build your Web Portal, IT project, or CRM integration is a BIG decision. We advise proceeding with GREAT caution.....

Feedback:

We hired DjangoForce to roadmap our internal software technology and assist as our implementation partner. Over the past 2 months, I’ve had nothing short of exceptional dedication, quality deliverables, and overall professionalism. We are happy to have hired them as our preferred vendor and looking forward to continuing the partnership.

What was the best part of the experience?

Not a positive experience AT ALL. Selecting developers to build your Web Portal, IT project, or CRM integration is a BIG decision. We advise proceeding with GREAT caution.....

Patrick of Djangoforce worked with me to setup a two custom machine learning application for my research company, Scio Motus. He is at the bleeding edge of new technologies and is able to translate the value and learnings to a less technical person in a way that made it easily applicable to me and my business. He worked within my budget, delivered in a timely manner and was very professional. He offered many suggestions on how to optimize and automate my process, which has enabled me to scale up my business. I recommend Djangoforce to anyone looking for a technology partner to grow their business.

Feedback:

DjangoForce and the staff are fantastic. They are very knowledgeable about salesforce implementations and take a true partner approach to their work ensuring our mutual success.
