What Our Clients Say
ScienceSoft's DevOps engineers helped us optimize our AWS infrastructure and set up a continuous software delivery process.
We've been working with ScienceSoft for almost a year, and it has been a great experience throughout. The team is very professional, well-organized, and is always on top of the finer details. We're impressed by their passion for solving problems and implementing improvements. This is exactly what a long-term, harmonious partnership should look like.
Our company turned to ScienceSoft for infrastructure management of the web application that we offer to our clients for sending SMS notifications.
ScienceSoft has been providing an excellent level of service maintaining the application's AWS infrastructure, as well as deploying and configuring new Linux-based virtual machines and AWS cloud services, such as Amazon EC2, Amazon RDS, Amazon S3, Elastic Load Balancing, Amazon ElastiCache, Amazon Route 53, and many more.
We cooperated with ScienceSoft's test automation team to validate the performance of our partner's ecommerce store. During load testing, ScienceSoft's test engineers revealed some performance bottlenecks. To find the root causes of these performance defects, ScienceSoft's team designed and ran additional configuration tests. Sometimes we required near real-time feedback on the test results, and ScienceSoft's test engineers were available for frequent meetings and calls.

How to Choose a DevOps Managed Services Company
To settle on the right managed services provider, make sure you get answers to the following questions:
How does this DevOps vendor establish communication?
Check how the vendor communicates during the presales process and ask how your collaboration will work after the start of the engagement. A mature MSP will be ready to provide a clear collaboration matrix, communication plan, and examples of the deliverables. ScienceSoft's team usually sends monthly reports detailing the achieved metrics and holds weekly meetings to discuss future DevOps strategies, but we are ready to adjust communication frequency and format to the client's expectations.
How does the vendor guarantee the security of my data?
Check if the vendor is ready to sign an NDA or other relevant privacy agreements. Ideally, a DevOps MSP should also comply with standards such as ISO 27001 and SOC 2 to prove that it has the proper measures in place to protect your sensitive data.
Will the vendor work proactively or in a break/fix mode?
Some vendors advocate for a preventive approach to managing DevOps, while some MSPs are hired to deal with problems as soon as they arise.
ScienceSoft combines the strengths of both strategies, proactively seeking opportunities to enhance the DevOps strategy and optimize the processes. At the same time, we perform regular tasks we were assigned with and stay available to promptly fix any emerging issues.
Will the vendor share knowledge with my team or other vendors?
ScienceSoft strongly advocates for no vendor lock-in. Ask your potential MSP if they're willing to do the same and continuously share complete and transparent documentation of their efforts.
