It was a great pleasure working with UPQODE! The agency is organised and allocated designers, developers and project managers to different phases of the project to ensure an excellent end result. Nick and his team at Upqode did an amazing job updating our About page on our website. I am very glad I gave them the creative freedom to give it a refreshed, more modern look and feel. Upqode will not let you down if you are looking for amazing website development at an affordable price. Bonus: Their project management is top tier. I was very pleased with how they organized this project and collaborated with our entire team.

Upqode is an amazing company to work with. Their work on our website made a significant difference to our business. They took all of the design drafts and turned them into a beautiful, functional, and customer friendly e-commerce store. Their team is completely trustworthy and incredibly organized. Not only do they have a very robust timeline and calendar that they respect and follow, but they are incredibly efficient to work with. Any changes that needed to be made, were done in a matter of a day or less. They are responsive to every single need and request and were at our beck and call whenever we needed them. They created our website from scratch and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. We highly recommend working with this incredible team of smart individuals who are also incredibly talented problem solvers. We are continuing to work with them by using their monthly package which is also incredibly useful to our business. Upqode is great and if you need to create a website or need monthly support, they should be your go to company!

It was a great pleasure working with Upqode! The agency is organised and allocated designers, developers and project managers to different phases of the project to ensure an excellent end result. The project wasn't easy since it involved creating designs based on simple mock-ups, integrating forms and CTAs with Hubspot, and at the same time, a tight deadline and a lot of pressure coming from all sides. In the end, the outcome was extremely positive and we highly recommend Upqode to anyone who wants to create a Wordpress website from scratch, or even to anyone who just wants to make some small improvements. Thanks, Upqode!

Please introduce your company and give a brief about your role within the organization.

UPQODE is one the leading top website design agencies.
As a strong leader in web design and development, UPQODE has been continuously recognized for its expertise and outstanding UI/UX Design ability to bring creative ideas to life.
 
We are passionate about our services and it is reflected in the awards that we are receiving throughout the years. Our projects are regularly getting honorable mentions on Awwwards, We are listed as top 1000 global companies (2021) and the top web design agencies. This year, we got selected as a WordPress VIP Agency Partner, which qualifies us as one of the leading WordPress companies.

Besides WordPress, UPQODE is Shopify and Webflow professional web agency partner. 
I am the founder, CEO, and Creative Director (Creator). Ideas Generator.

What is the story behind starting this company?

During the university, I and my brother started to learn PHP Programming language and this on our own :)  How does that happen? My brother got a proposal from a company to learn PHP and eventually administrate their website. So he said let us learn together! After a few lessons, one of my professors at the University proposed I administrate one website.

So I started as a web developer at the university, even if my faculty specialty was in telecommunications :) Then I started to work as a freelancer taking over more and more web development projects. I like solving problems, as well as providing web programming solutions. Besides the fact that  I enjoyed what I was doing the remuneration was not bad compared to other types of jobs.

Later I won the green card and moved to the US, here together with one of my school colleagues we started to create HTML/CSS Website Templates and WordPress Themes and sell them on such marketplaces as ThemeForest. At that time I was generating innovative and I would say unique ideas regarding UI/UX Design websites for different industries and niches. I got to create some custom UI/UX websites for end customers and decided to create UPQODE as a  Web Agency specializing at the beginning only in unique custom Websites Design and Development.

What are your company’s business model–in house team or third party vendors/ outsourcing?

Hybrid Model: in-house team and third-party vendors.

How does your company differentiate itself from the competition?

I believe through our projects' results -  the quality, and communication we do provide. We offer a full spectrum of services starting from digital project management, branding, UI/UX Web style Guides, Web Development Solutions, Apps, Web accessibility, SEO and Content Strategy, and Monthly Website Maintenance. Having all this knowledge we are able to provide our clients with complete solutions for their web presence. Our websites do not only feel and look good, they convert, they are scalable including integrations and functionality, they are SEO friendly, they are Secured, and can be ADA accessibility compliant.

What industries do you generally cater to? Are your customers repetitive? If yes, what ratio of clients has been repetitive to you?

Since our foundation in 2015, we have led 250+ sophisticated WordPress projects for small and medium-large businesses in tech, marketing, design, non-profit, arts, consumer, real estate, healthcare, and medical, service providers, e-commerce, financial services, and other industries.

Around 80% +  of clients are repetitive. We like to say about us  Refer us and be someone's hero!

Please share some of the services that you offer for which clients approach you the most for?

  • Brand guidelines.
  • Custom website UI/UX design and web style guide creation.

  • Full SEO including Content Strategy.

What is your customer satisfaction rate according to you? What steps do you take to cater to your customer’s needs and requirements?

We take over any project only when we are 120% sure that we are capable to deliver the expected result.

UPQODE stays in our client's corner. We go that extra mile to help our clients succeed, and even help them look good and impress the other people in their world (customers, associates, etc.).

Saving our customers time and energy is our main scope. That's why we try to provide optimal solutions and good response communication time. We understand the business goals and deliver them according to their business values.

What kind of support system do you offer to your clients for catering to their queries and issues?

Project Meetings Communication:

Collaboration on the UI/UX Design Phase
  • Invision

What kind of payment structure do you follow to bill your clients? Is it Pay per Feature, Fixed Cost, Pay per Milestone (could be in phases, months, versions etc.)

Depending on the project scope. Known/Unknown Variables. Client Screening - it may be an hourly rate-based project, Pay per Feature, Fixed Cost, Pay per Milestone (Phases). We try to be flexible here knowing that different clients have different expectations and different past experiences. Many times we take over unfinished projects where the clients may have had not the best experience, therefore we understand their precautious measures. What I try to say here we find the most optimal approach in our relationship with clients. Only a win-win approach.

Do you take in projects which meet your basic budget requirement? If yes, what is the minimum requirement? If no, on what minimum budget you have worked for?

This depends on different factors such as team availability, the team sitting on the bench, etc. At this moment we try not to take projects less than 5k. Besides budget, we do client screening, client expected delivery timeline. Besides clients, our people are the most valuable part of the company. Taking over not the right project may demotivate them. Therefore, from our experience sometimes is better to say NO to a client.

What is the price range (min and max) of the projects that you catered to in 2021?

10k-50k.

Where do you see your company in the next 10 years?

It’s really hard to say in 10 years, with the fastest growing industry in the world like IT. 
Short-Long, we are planning to focus on adding more services and creating more Products.
