Easy to work with and very transparent on timelines and cost

Nikhil Bose / General Manager | Oct 05, 2026

We were very happy with how this project went. Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline. Even with the time zone difference, responses usually came the same day and we never felt left in the dark. They shared working builds regularly, so we could test early and give feedback before things were locked in.

The result looks great and performs well, and our internal team found it easy to take over.

We are already discussing the next phase with them.

Project summary

Our company worked with 5 Elements Entertainment to migrate our on-premise servers to AWS. They worked alongside our in-house team, which mostly handled business requirements and testing. We worked together for around 9 months.

Capable Web Development team — happy with the end result

Olivia Harris / Co-Founder & CTO | Sep 27, 2026

We got a good result in the end, but the road there had a few bumps. The team asked a lot of questions early on, which felt slow at first but meant there were very few surprises later. The developers were knowledgeable and made a few suggestions that ended up saving us time and money.

It has made a real difference to how our team works day to day. Their team changed one developer midway, which slowed things down for a couple of weeks. I would recommend 5 Elements Entertainment to anyone looking for a dependable Web Development partner.

Project summary

We hired 5 Elements Entertainment to rebuild a slow, outdated web app and move it to a new framework. They worked alongside our in-house team, which mostly handled business requirements and testing. The project took roughly 8 months from kickoff to launch.

Solid Mobile App Development Work With Clear Communication Throughout

Hui Min Goh / Director of IT | Sep 10, 2026

We were happy with the final result. Even with the time zone difference, responses usually came the same day and we never felt left in the dark. They shared working builds regularly, so we could test early and give feedback before things were locked in. We dealt with the same core team throughout, so we did not have to keep re-explaining things.

Since launch, everything has been stable and our team has adapted to it quickly. There were some early misunderstandings on requirements that took a few rounds to sort out.

I would recommend 5 Elements Entertainment to anyone looking for a dependable Mobile App Development partner.

Good value and a team that genuinely cares about the result

Jack Nguyen / Founder & CEO | Aug 09, 2026

We were happy with the final result. They took the time to understand our business before suggesting anything, which we appreciated after previous agencies jumped straight into building. Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline.

Since launch, everything has been stable and our team has adapted to it quickly. Documentation at handover was a bit thin and we had to ask for more detail. If you need a team that communicates well and delivers, they are a good choice.

Project summary

5 Elements Entertainment was brought in to migrate our on-premise servers to AWS. Their team handled planning, development and QA, with our product owner signing off each milestone. The engagement ran for about 5 months.

Good work overall, with a few bumps along the way

Felix Weber / Director of Technology | Jul 18, 2026

The final product works well for us, although the process could have been smoother. They shared working builds regularly, so we could test early and give feedback before things were locked in. The developers were knowledgeable and made a few suggestions that ended up saving us time and money.

It has made a real difference to how our team works day to day. Estimates on a few features were optimistic and those took longer than planned.

Overall, a team we trust and plan to keep working with.
