upqode | Dec 16th, 2022

The journey of these tech scholars started during their university days. The early start enabled Nicolae Pasecinic to build UPQODE over the years and power its way among the top website design companies worldwide.  Nicolae’s internal motivation and courage to do something big and phenomenal for small-scale industries could be deeply felt while reading about his company’s significant growth trajectory.

The casual university training in PHP programming language led the Pasecinic brothers to administrate websites and further establish themselves as professional web developers/managers. “We created HTML/CSS Website Templates and WordPress Themes and sold them on such marketplaces as ThemeForest. I got to create some custom UI/UX websites for end customers and therefore, decided to create UPQODE as a Web Agency specializing at the beginning only in unique custom Websites Design and Development”, Nicolae Pasecinic says. 

A Leading Design Business

Established in 2015, UPQODE is a leading web design and development agency in Nashville, Tennessee. The company is highly recognized for its expertise and UI/UX design ability to bring creative ideas to life.

Flexible Payment Structure

Hourly-based, Pay Per Feature, Fixed, Cost, or Pay Per Milestone-based payment is charged flexibly depending upon the type and needs of the projects. Providing the most optimal approach to serve the customers remains the priority. Some known and unknown variables are included. 

“Our basic budget requirements are based on different factors such as team availability, team sitting on the bench, etc. Hence, the minimum limit of the projects we take is up to 5K”, the CEO says. The average price range of the projects undertaken by the company during 2021 was 10K to 50K. 

When asked about where he sees the company in the next ten years, he concludes the interview by saying, “It’s tough to say in 10 years, with the fastest growing industry in the world like IT. Short-Long, we are planning to focus on adding more services and creating more products.”

What They Say

This is a team that pays great attention to detail and does great work. I had a design done for my website by a separate designer, and Nick implemented the design perfectly for both mobile and desktop. His team uses project management software to track tasks and break up the work for his team into sprints. You aren’t just getting a developer when you hire Nick, you’re also getting great project management and organization. I 100% recommended it.

UPQODE delivers high-quality web work quickly, thanks to their expertise in PHP and WordPress. Regular communication and reasonable prices further smooth the workflow. We've been very pleased with the results. UPQODE responds far more quickly to development changes than our core team would be able to. They are highly knowledgeable about best practices in WordPress, and their ability to rapidly scale up whenever we need a project completed makes them a valuable asset for us in our development needs.

The engagement resulted in an aesthetically pleasing website that satisfied internal stakeholders. They dedicated capable resources that ensured effective collaboration. UPQODE’s attentiveness and flexibility support a successful partnership. They created a beautiful website that we love. The site functions to advertise a certain medical procedure, so I can’t speak to any traffic metrics. UPQODE's responsiveness was their most impressive quality.

The vendor succeeded in creating innovative WordPress solutions. Their availability enabled the client to deliver products more quickly. UPQODE's project management was good—their staff met weekly with the client and was always very punctual. UPQODE brought troubleshooting, recommendations, and ideas that our previous partner was unable to provide. They deliver work on-time and within budget. The design they’ve inserted into the product has enabled us to deliver products more quickly. They have always been very helpful in recommending better solutions.
