Strengths and watch-outs
Both upsides and risks, straight from our editorial assessments.
Alasta
✓ Strengths
- •E2C case study shows year-long user immersion, iterative testing, and phased product strategy for a government initiative—genuine research depth
- •Kinomap documents user interviews, collaborative workshops, and full app overhaul including onboarding, navigation, and gamification design
- •40+ projects with verifiable French tech clients and LinkedIn testimonials from named founders
⚠ Watch-outs
- •Process depth varies significantly—E2C and Kinomap show methodology, but most of the 40+ projects are visual thumbnails without narratives; ask which engagement model applies to your project
- •No published measurable outcomes (conversion rates, retention metrics)—request specific results data if evidence-based ROI matters for your decision
- •Team size of 2–9 with 40+ clients and varying engagement depth—confirm dedicated capacity and seniority for your timeline
Yield Studio
✓ Strengths
- •100+ clients with 6 published case studies showing structured Discovery-to-Delivery process and measurable development impact
- •CTO externalization and senior developer embedding services—strong for teams needing technical leadership alongside delivery
- •Lean methodology with quality framework for code standards—claims 98% of projects shipped in under 3 months
⚠ Watch-outs
- •UX/UI is a supporting service, not the primary offering—no visible user research, usability tests, or design system documentation; confirm dedicated UX capacity if your project is design-heavy
- •All content is French-only—international buyers should confirm English-language delivery capability
- •Case study depth focuses on technical delivery and architecture, not UX outcomes—ask for UX-specific process examples if that's your priority
