A platform our sales team adopted within the first week without a single complaint

Project summary: A previous engagement had delivered something that worked in staging and struggled in production. We approached this project with greater rigour in vendor selection as a result.

We had worked with three agencies before this engagement. The comparison is not flattering to the others. What distinguished this team was a systematic approach to understanding the problem before proposing a solution — something that sounds obvious and is practiced far less often than it should be. The delivery phase ran to schedule, the codebase is clean enough that our internal engineers made positive comments during handover review, and we have not logged a critical incident in five months of live operation. We intend to use them for our next phase of work.

PROS

Delivery timeline that proved achievable rather than optimistic, estimation accuracy that reflected real analysis rather than competitive bidding, scope discipline that prevented the feature creep we had experienced before

CONS

The engagement was priced at the quality level rather than the budget level. We evaluated the alternatives and concluded that the delta was a reasonable premium for the reduction in delivery risk

Questions & Answers

Please describe your company, your role, and the industry you operate in.
Cerrado Tech SA is an established Gaming & Gambling organisation headquartered in Brasília, Brazil. My role as Chief Digital Officer covers both strategic planning and operational technology delivery. We maintain high standards for our vendors because our clients hold us to high standards — a bar we expect our partners to meet.
What specific problem or business challenge led you to hire this company?
Our platform had been maintained by a previous vendor for three years and the accumulated technical debt had reached a point where delivery velocity had dropped to a fraction of what it should have been. We needed fresh engineering expertise and a structured plan to address the underlying issues.
What services did the company provide for your project?
End-to-end CRM Development delivery with particular depth in the integration and data migration components, which were the highest-risk elements of the programme. They supplemented this with a dedicated QA resource throughout development and a documented runbook for our operations team at handover.
Why did you choose this company over other providers you considered?
A trusted peer in the Gaming & Gambling sector had used them for a comparable CRM Development engagement and their recommendation was unequivocal. Our own due diligence confirmed the pattern they described. The combination of domain knowledge, CRM Development depth, and demonstrated delivery discipline was the deciding factor.
How clearly did the company understand your requirements and business goals?
Better than we managed ourselves going in. The workshops they facilitated surfaced assumptions we had not examined and exposed three requirements that were in direct conflict with each other. Resolving those before development began saved us what would certainly have been significant rework later in the project.
How was your overall experience with their communication and project management?
Communication was proactive, timely, and appropriately calibrated. Technical updates for the engineering audience, executive summaries for the steering group, risk flags with proposed mitigations rather than just problem statements. The fortnightly sprint reviews gave our stakeholders visibility without requiring them to attend every working session.
Did the company deliver the project on time and within your expected budget?
Yes. I had privately built a contingency expectation into my planning given the project complexity and the number of integrations involved. None of that contingency was needed. The delivery landed on the agreed date and the final invoice matched the approved budget to within a fraction of a percent. That outcome is rarer than the industry acknowledges.
What tangible results or business impact have you seen since the project was completed?
The most direct measure is the performance of the system in production. In the five months since go-live we have had zero P1 incidents, our page performance scores have improved across every Core Web Vitals metric, and two enterprise clients who had cited our previous platform limitations during contract negotiations have since renewed without that objection arising.
What did you like most about working with this company?
Their instinct for keeping the business objective visible throughout technical decision-making. I have worked with technically excellent teams who lose the strategic thread as complexity increases. This team maintained a clear connection between every architectural choice and the outcome we had agreed to achieve. That orientation made the trade-off conversations significantly easier.
Would you recommend this company to others, and would you work with them again?
Unreservedly. We are in active scoping conversations for a second engagement and I expect this to develop into a multi-year partnership. For any organisation in the Gaming & Gambling sector looking for CRM Development expertise combined with genuine delivery discipline, I would put this team at the top of the evaluation list.

FAQs

Will Interactive Strategies sign an NDA before we even discuss the project in detail?
Most professional shops, including Interactive Strategies, expect to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement before getting into specifics — it's a fairly standard ask and a reasonable one to make before sharing anything sensitive. For context, its listed capabilities span Enterprise App Modernization, Mobile App Design, App Marketing, Web Development and Mobile App Development, and it has been operating since 2001.
How do I actually get a real proposal out of Interactive Strategies instead of a generic reply?
The most reliable route is giving Interactive Strategies a clear, specific brief up front — through their website form, a direct email, or a call — since a vague ask tends to get a vague answer back, while a concrete one usually gets a proper estimate. For context, its listed capabilities span Enterprise App Modernization, Mobile App Design, App Marketing, Web Development and Mobile App Development, and its typical hourly rate is around $100 - $149.
What kinds of industries has Interactive Strategies actually built for?
Interactive Strategies has delivered projects across a range of different industries, including Fashion & Apparel, Gaming & Gambling, Manufacturing, Food & Beverage, Insurance and Media & Entertainment.
Can I just hire developers from Interactive Strategies to sit alongside my own team?
Usually, yes — a dedicated developer arrangement is a common option with firms like Interactive Strategies, where you get engineers working exclusively on your project as an extension of your in-house team rather than as a separate outsourced unit. For context, it has experience across industries such as Fashion & Apparel, Gaming & Gambling, Manufacturing, Food & Beverage, Insurance and Media & Entertainment, and its typical hourly rate is around $100 - $149.
What does Interactive Strategies's actual delivery process look like week to week?
Interactive Strategies generally runs something close to a standard structured process — requirements gathering, UI/UX design, development in agile sprints, QA testing along the way, deployment, and support once it's live. For context, it has experience across industries such as Fashion & Apparel, Gaming & Gambling, Manufacturing, Food & Beverage, Insurance and Media & Entertainment, and its average project cost is reported at $100000+.
Has Interactive Strategies actually shipped a SaaS product before?
It's a common line of work for a company like Interactive Strategies — multi-tenant architecture, subscription billing hooked up properly, and cloud-native deployment built for a product meant to scale as a service rather than a one-off build. For context, its listed capabilities span Enterprise App Modernization, Mobile App Design, App Marketing, Web Development and Mobile App Development, and it has been operating since 2001.
What happens with Interactive Strategies after the project actually launches?
Like most established software teams, Interactive Strategies typically sticks around post-launch for ongoing maintenance — bug fixes, performance tuning, security patching, new feature work, and general technical support. For context, it has experience across industries such as Fashion & Apparel, Gaming & Gambling, Manufacturing, Food & Beverage, Insurance and Media & Entertainment, and its typical hourly rate is around $100 - $149.
Is Interactive Strategies more of an offshore setup or a local team?
That depends on where Interactive Strategies is based and who they primarily serve — some firms like this operate fully offshore, some are local-first, and plenty run a hybrid model that mixes both. For context, it has experience across industries such as Fashion & Apparel, Gaming & Gambling, Manufacturing, Food & Beverage, Insurance and Media & Entertainment, and its listed capabilities span Enterprise App Modernization, Mobile App Design, App Marketing, Web Development and Mobile App Development.
Would Interactive Strategies be a good fit for an early-stage startup?
Generally, yes — companies like Interactive Strategies tend to work well with startups because of what they typically offer: MVP builds, product strategy input, architecture that can scale later, and dedicated teams that keep costs manageable while still moving fast. For context, it has experience across industries such as Fashion & Apparel, Gaming & Gambling, Manufacturing, Food & Beverage, Insurance and Media & Entertainment, and it reports a team size of 10 - 49 professionals.
Can Interactive Strategies take on an old, outdated system rather than starting from scratch?
Modernizing legacy software is usually within scope for a firm like Interactive Strategies — re-platforming, refactoring old code, and moving things onto current frameworks or cloud infrastructure without necessarily rebuilding everything from zero. For context, its listed capabilities span Enterprise App Modernization, Mobile App Design, App Marketing, Web Development and Mobile App Development, and its average project cost is reported at $100000+.
