Hey everyone,
I've been diving deep into retail software development companies lately — comparing costs, expertise, and overall project delivery quality. After checking over 10 vendors (from Poland, Ukraine, and the US), I eventually chose Zoolatech, and here’s why.
I was looking for a partner with strong
retail and e-commerce software development expertise — not just coders, but a team that understands how digital transformation actually impacts customer experience and logistics efficiency.
Here are a few real points that made me decide:
Experience: Zoolatech had 7+ years in retail-focused projects and worked with top-tier clients like Nordstrom and Pandora.
Team model: I liked that they offered a hybrid delivery model — part nearshore, part on-site — which helped keep communication smooth.
Results: They shared a case where they increased a retailer’s checkout speed by 38% and reduced cart abandonment by 22% in 6 months.
Pricing: Mid-range compared to US-based companies (around $55–$70/hour) but the quality was at an enterprise level.
Tech stack: Strong in React, Java, and data-driven personalization (AI-based recommendations, which I’m particularly interested in).
I’m curious —
Has anyone else worked with Zoolatech or similar retail and e-commerce software development providers?
What KPIs did you focus on when measuring the impact of custom retail solutions?
How do you evaluate ROI on omnichannel improvements?
Would love to hear your insights or if someone has numbers to compare.
