Skilled AI & Machine Learning Team That Understood Our Business

Saud Al Harbi / Founder & CEO | Oct 09, 2026

I would rate this engagement highly on almost every front. Communication was consistent. We had a weekly call, a shared Slack channel and a project board we could check at any time. The developers were knowledgeable and made a few suggestions that ended up saving us time and money.

Since launch, everything has been stable and our team has adapted to it quickly. We are already discussing the next phase with them.

Project summary

Our company worked with Barbershop to build a demand forecasting model on top of our sales data. Their team handled planning, development and QA, with our product owner signing off each milestone. Overall it was a 4-month engagement.

What services did the company provide for your project?

Why did you choose this company over other providers you considered?

Communication was good overall and improved further once we settled into a routine.

Skilled Mobile App Development Team That Understood Our Business

Darren Ng / Co-Founder & CTO | Sep 23, 2026

Honestly, this was one of the smoothest projects we have run with an outside team. When we changed our minds on a couple of features halfway through, they handled it without fuss and were clear about the impact on cost and timeline. 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.

The result looks great and performs well, and our internal team found it easy to take over. If you need a team that communicates well and delivers, they are a good choice.

Project summary

Our company worked with Barbershop to build iOS and Android apps for our customers, including booking, payments and push notifications. They also took care of integrations with a couple of third-party tools we already used. The project took roughly 7 months from kickoff to launch.

Good results, communication improved as the project went on

We got a good result in the end, but the road there had a few bumps. When we changed our minds on a couple of features halfway through, they handled it without fuss and were clear about the impact on cost and timeline. The team asked a lot of questions early on, which felt slow at first but meant there were very few surprises later.

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 Barbershop to anyone looking for a dependable IT Managed Services partner.

Georgia Harris / Director of Technology | Jun 26, 2026

Honest advice and solid execution

Sarah Leblanc / Senior Engineering Manager | Jan 13, 2026

Our experience with Barbershop was really positive from start to finish. Even with the time zone difference, responses usually came the same day and we never felt left in the dark.

When we changed our minds on a couple of features halfway through, they handled it without fuss and were clear about the impact on cost and timeline.

The IT Managed Services work has already made a noticeable difference — tasks that used to take hours now take minutes.

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