“When Mistletoe needed its system management software rewritten, our company evaluated outsourcing options and hired MapleWorks, a Canadian firm. Our system management software was a complex combination of SNMP, CLI and Web technologies. It had been originally architected in India, but the time zone difference had caused havoc with development and collaboration.
"We saved 50% by going with MapleWorks over a US company for this project. MapleWorks engineers’ ability to quickly learn an existing system and architecture, maintain it, and rewrite it – all at the same time – was extremely helpful as we made the transition to a new product.”
Tim Bean, VP of Engineering at Mistletoe Technologies Inc.
“MapleWorks designed and engineered a scaleable and user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI) for Certeon’s S-Series high performance application acceleration appliances. The MapleWorks solution combines a unique implementation of web services and Ajax, Java, and SOAP technology, giving our customers a powerful and flexible GUI to our appliances. MapleWorks delivered product design, development and full functionality in an incredibly quick turnaround time that reinforced Certeon’s leadership in providing fast and easy deployment of application acceleration to distributed enterprises.
"Certeon looks forward to outsourcing future work on its next generation products to MapleWorks.”
Lance Urbas, VP Engineering at Certeon, Inc.
“Bringing on MapleWorks helped expedite our product development without having to divert resources from other projects underway. MapleWorks engineers implemented the new software component for our TILE64 processor and integrated it into our development environment in two months flat.
"Thanks to the excellent outsourcing service provided by MapleWorks, Tilera was able to deliver on its customer commitments without losing out on new opportunities. MapleWorks is a professional, knowledgeable and enthusiastic team and they’re easy to work with.”
Michael Cook, Manager, Software Engineering at Tilera Corp.
“Outsourcing made sense from a number of angles. Not only did MapleWorks provide the technical expertise and level of skill necessary for the project, there was a confidence-inspiring consistency in the work methods and the people involved. As far as the onshore aspect is concerned, the proximity of our companies to each other made it easy to have both engineering teams work closely together. It is also clear to us that we have saved money by using MapleWorks. In fact, they’ve helped us identify system problems that we would not have found until a much later date - probably at a much higher cost to remedy.”
Seamus Daly, VP of Engineering, Soapstone Networks
“Mapleworks took over the engineering of one of our IVR speech recognition subsystems, and the results were delightful! They built an automated test harness, updated the subsystem and created new features, and were extremely easy to work from both a technical and financial perspective. Unlike other bidders, Mapleworks understood that we needed to keep moving the project forward while they were re-engineering the system. Our decision to go with an onshore resource proved wise. There were no time zone or language issues. Face-to face meetings were easy and productive; Mapleworks really listened.”
Jeff Fried, VP of Engineering, Unveil
“We selected MapleWorks because of their strong talent pool, close proximity, and specific domain experience. In other off-shore outsourcing endeavors, we found ourselves encumbered with junior developers. In contrast, MapleWorks used more experienced developers to build the Empirix team, a significant benefit for us. Throughout the relationship, MapleWorks was consistently in close communication with our key personnel; in fact, they seemed like they were actual employees instead of being part of another company.”
J.D. Doyle, Vice President and General Manager, Service Assurance Solutions, Empirix
“MapleWorks’ expertise was deep, and they had a great sense of urgency. We all worked as “one team” to make a successful product. With their comprehensive understanding of our market, MapleWorks proved an invaluable resource. MapleWorks enabled Carrier Access to address any technical/product gaps in our market offering. We would happily work with them again.”
Mike Mayfield – SVP of Voice Integration Solutions Group – Carrier Access Corporation
“Stratus Technology was interested in utilizing outsourcing because we wanted the flexibility that came with outsourcing. For us, cost was not a driving factor: we were looking to create a long-term partnership, and we found that with MapleWorks. MapleWorks not only delivered an excellent end-product, but they were invested in Stratus the entire length of the project, they were sincerely concerned with the quality of the work, and they brought an extremely high level of expertise.”
Kumar Ramalingam – Project Manager – Stratus Technology
“We decided to outsource because we had extra work, but didn’t want to bear the overhead of hiring a full-time team. MapleWorks delivered an engineering team in a box – ramped up and ready to go. They were an extremely sharp and well-integrated group – not process heavy. It was a relief to be able to delegate work to people we could count on to deliver high quality work and do it quickly. After meeting with the MapleWorks team, I didn’t even feel the need to put the project out for other bids. That‘s how pleased and confident I was.”
Tom Ermolovich – VP of Engineering, Founder – Legra
“Qovia was an early stage leader in VoIP QoS monitoring and reporting. Mapleworks worked on our UI and reporting system. We had tried off-shore outsourcing, but we chose MapleWorks because they had demonstrated the domain expertise and professionalism and were a very cost-effective option as compared with US technical centers. Combine their experience and value with intangibles like time zone, language and ease of face-to-face time and you can see why we were so happy with Mapleworks. They are a well-run, professional company that gave us high quality results.”
David Woodall – CEO – Qovia
“Ensim selected MapleWorks because of the relationship the Company had built with them. Through the duration of the project, Ensim was impressed with the skills, processes and technical discussions that took place: Project management was outstanding- from weekly status reports to regular communications - and everything was done with the utmost professionalism. MapleWorks’ domain expertise was particularly helpful when having conversations about customer needs. The project was always kept moving forward, even as requirements changed and evolved. MapleWorks’ has definitely earned a place on Ensim’s preferred vendor list.”
