Balboa Pacific Delivered a Quality Low-Code / No-Code Development Solution on Time

Pieter Nkosi / Senior Engineering Manager | Aug 28, 2026

I would rate this engagement highly on almost every front. Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline. They were upfront about what was realistic within our budget, which helped us prioritise the right features.

The Low-Code / No-Code Development work has already made a noticeable difference — tasks that used to take hours now take minutes. We are already discussing the next phase with them.

Project summary

Balboa Pacific was brought in to build internal tools on a low-code platform so our team could stop relying on spreadsheets. Scope included discovery workshops, development in two-week sprints and a short support period after launch. The engagement ran for about 2 months.

Quality work, a little slower than we planned

Lucy Wright / Engineering Manager | Jul 11, 2026

We got a good result in the end, but the road there had a few bumps. Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline. The team asked a lot of questions early on, which felt slow at first but meant there were very few surprises later.

Feedback from our customers has been very positive so far. Documentation at handover was a bit thin and we had to ask for more detail. Happy to recommend them.

Project summary

We partnered with Balboa Pacific to add an AI chatbot to our support site that answers questions from our help docs. They worked alongside our in-house team, which mostly handled business requirements and testing. Overall it was a 9-month engagement.

Skilled AI & Machine Learning Team That Understood Our Business

Divya Agarwal / Program Manager | Jun 20, 2026

Overall we had a good experience working with Balboa Pacific. Communication was consistent. We had a weekly call, a shared Slack channel and a project board we could check at any time. Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline.

Feedback from our customers has been very positive so far. Their team changed one developer midway, which slowed things down for a couple of weeks. We would definitely work with them again.

Capable Low-Code / No-Code Development team — happy with the end result
