Exceeded our expectations on quality and communication

Eric Hayes / Project Manager | Oct 17, 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. The team asked a lot of questions early on, which felt slow at first but meant there were very few surprises later.

It has made a real difference to how our team works day to day. We would definitely work with them again.

Project summary

We engaged Black Company Studios to automate approval workflows using a no-code platform. They worked alongside our in-house team, which mostly handled business requirements and testing. Overall it was a 7-month engagement.

Reliable IoT Development Partner That Delivered What They Promised

Daniel Qureshi / Director of IT | Aug 28, 2026

We were very happy with how this project went. They took the time to understand our business before suggesting anything, which we appreciated after previous agencies jumped straight into building. Even with the time zone difference, responses usually came the same day and we never felt left in the dark. They were upfront about what was realistic within our budget, which helped us prioritise the right features.

The result looks great and performs well, and our internal team found it easy to take over. We would definitely work with them again.

Capable AI & Machine Learning team — happy with the end result

Lukas Hoffmann / Engineering Manager | Jul 23, 2026

The final product works well for us, although the process could have been smoother. They were upfront about what was realistic within our budget, which helped us prioritise the right features. 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. Estimates on a few features were optimistic and those took longer than planned. We would definitely work with them again.

Professional team that made a complex project feel manageable

Megan Sullivan / Head of Digital Transformation | Jun 05, 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. 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 Web 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.

They listened, asked the right questions, and delivered

Carlos Ramirez / Director of Technology | May 08, 2026

Black Company Studios did good work for us, and we would use them again. Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline. Communication was consistent. We had a weekly call, a shared Slack channel and a project board we could check at any time. We dealt with the same core team throughout, so we did not have to keep re-explaining things.

It has made a real difference to how our team works day to day. We had to follow up a few times on smaller bug fixes after launch. I would recommend Black Company Studios to anyone looking for a dependable Mobile App Development partner.

Skilled AR/VR Development Team That Understood Our Business

Layla Fernandes / CEO | Jan 18, 2026

Honestly, this was one of the smoothest projects we have run with an outside team. They were upfront about what was realistic within our budget, which helped us prioritise the right features.

We had a weekly call, a shared Slack channel and a project board we could check at any time.
