Nutrition Systems

"Softjourn has helped us to add functionality to the NutritionPedia website that enhances the user experience leading to more (visitor) time spent on the website and increased revenue." - Marvin R. Johnson, CEO - Nutrition Systems.

Projects developed for Nutrition Systems:

NutritionPedia (www.nutritionpedia.com)

Softjourn developed NutritionPedia.com, a free online searchable database and wiki, which allows health-conscious individuals to easily access Nutrition Facts Labels on over 70,000 branded food products plus up-to-date information on dieting and wellness. NutritionPedia.com makes it easy and convenient to research and compare nutritional information (calories, proteins, fats, and carbohydrate content) on a wide variety of food items. The site also includes a wiki or online editing tool which allows users to add new items to the NutritionPedia database.
When working on this project Softjourn, among other tasks, also set up a Google mini server and created gadgets for Google start page (iGoogle).

NutritionMinder (www.nutritionminder.com)

Softjourn is improving and changing parts of the NutritionMinder system that enables a user to determine the proper foods for his diet and whether he should lose weight, maintain his current weight or gain weight.

As defined by Marvin R. Johnson, the following factors encouraged the company to choose to work with Softjourn:

  • - Softjourn's reputation for completing projects on time and on budget with high quality
  • - Ability to speak and write in English. Marvin has worked with developers from other countries where communication was an issue but this has not been an issue with Softjourn
  • - Competitive pricing
  • - Flexibility to adjust quickly to changing project requirements
  • - Ability to provide quality service for small projects that only require 1-3 developers

"I have recommended Softjourn to other clients such as PayPartners. Whenever you make a recommendation to a colleague your reputation and credibility is on the line. My primary reasons for recommending Softjourn was reducing/eliminating risk and pricing. From my experience with Softjourn I knew that the risk of the project failing was quite low. This along with the competitive pricing made Softjourn an easy recommendation." - Marvin R. Johnson, CEO - Nutrition Systems.
