AppShark Software

AppShark Software partnered with Vendorin, a company that helps businesses transition from paper-based accounts payable to electronic, to build their product. The project involved creating a web application and file interface, which allowed clients to send and receive files. The partnership, which started in 2007, cost between $200,000 to $1 million. Vendorin's president and founder was pleased with AppShark's ability to build and modify the product according to their specifications, as well as provide ongoing production support.

In a project for Hair Direct, a consumer goods company, AppShark Software was tasked with implementing Salesforce as their CRM system. The project, which cost $250,000, involved picking up loose pieces from a failed relationship with another agency, meeting business requirements, designing solutions, and importing over a million records. Despite a tight deadline, AppShark successfully launched the system and worked through bug clean-ups. Hair Direct was so satisfied with the result that they decided to continue the partnership, hiring two full-time AppShark employees and considering them for a website redesign.

AppShark Software was hired by Gym Source, a fitness equipment dealer, to expand their Salesforce CRM functionality and build an enterprise solution on the Force platform. The project involved cleaning up an initial implementation, blending available apps, and building a bespoke application, including a point-of-sale system. Despite a previous unsatisfactory experience with a different implementation partner, Gym Source found working with AppShark a breath of fresh air and felt they were getting the truth from the team. The successful completion of a small project led to the expansion of the scope of work, and the relationship continues 18 months on.
