What we said about each
What we said about Innovagency
"Published work spans 10-plus case studies across retail, telecom, banking and insurance, logistics, and public-sector transit, with the Continente personalized-flyers project citing over a million weekly personalized leaflets, 4 million active customers, and gold and silver effectiveness awards at the Modern Retail Awards 2021.

"More than 20 client case studies are published, and at least six close with outcome numbers rather than screenshots: mishmash reports a 212% sales lift and 34% conversion gain, Hey Harper 17% conversion in its EU store and around €3M in added revenue at one month's payback, Coffee King 29% conversion and 38% average order value two months after launch, and CometChat 50% more demo requests. Case studies list front-end and back-end development alongside design and brand work, so this is a build…"

Strengths and watch-outs
Both upsides and risks, straight from our editorial assessments.
Innovagency
✓ Strengths
- •Case range covers retail, telecom, banking/insurance, logistics, and transit (Vodafone, DPD, Novo Banco, Tranquilidade, EMSA), so vertical context is demonstrable for several common buyer categories.
- •Vodafone support case publishes concrete research artifacts: 766-response survey, 41-participant card sort, and usability testing with 16 participants.
- •Continente flyer project documents hard outcomes—1M+ personalized leaflets weekly, 4M+ active customers, and two effectiveness awards.
⚠ Watch-outs
- •Confirm how much of a quoted engagement is UX research and design versus development and martech, since most published cases lead with engineering and data delivery.
- •Ask for the date of recent work and metric-backed results, as the most recent datable evidence on the site is the 2021 Modern Retail Awards.
- •Clarify which named team members staff your project given that UX sits inside one of eight service units and can be combined with staff-augmentation resourcing.
Significa
✓ Strengths
- •Outcome reporting is consistent across verticals, not just commerce: allO documents a 30% sales increase and 25 minutes saved per shift in back-office work, and Diesta a 50% reduction in manual reconciliation after launch.
- •Four projects were published in 2026 (Coffee King, Diesta, Petzai, FC Porto hospitality), and the blog has run 10 posts since April 2026, mostly on AI in discovery and prototyping.
- •Operating signals are verifiable: B Corp certified and a 1% for the Planet member, trading since 2016 from a street address and landline, roughly 35 people listed, and a fully public company handbook covering design ethos, engineering practice, NGO pricing, and its AI policy.
⚠ Watch-outs
- •Research is referenced but no discovery artifacts appear on any project page—ask to see interview notes, a test plan or a wireframe sequence from a recent project before assuming discovery sits inside your quote.
- •Conversion and revenue figures are published without a stated measurement window or control—ask how each lift was isolated from seasonality and paid-media spend, especially on the e-commerce replatforms.
- •Strategy, brand, design, and both front-end and back-end sit under one roof at roughly 35 people—confirm how many are assigned to your project at once, and whether design and engineering run concurrently or in sequence.
