Good results, communication improved as the project went on

Brandon Reed / Marketing Director | Oct 06, 2026

Overall the project was a success, though it was not without some challenges. The team asked a lot of questions early on, which felt slow at first but meant there were very few surprises later. 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

Candev Studio was brought in to rebuild a slow, outdated web app and move it to a new framework.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 engagement ran for about 9 months.

Skilled AI & Machine Learning Team That Understood Our Business

Carlos Sullivan / Director | May 21, 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. The team asked a lot of questions early on, which felt slow at first but meant there were very few surprises later. They shared working builds regularly, so we could test early and give feedback before things were locked in.

We launched on schedule and have not had any major issues since.

If you need a team that communicates well and delivers, they are a good choice.

Project summary

We partnered with Candev Studio to build a demand forecasting model on top of our sales data. The project was split into milestones, with a working build shared at the end of each one. We worked together for around 4 months.

Solid delivery, though timelines needed some pushing

Marcus Ng / VP of Engineering | May 04, 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. They were upfront about what was realistic within our budget, which helped us prioritise the right features.

We launched on schedule and have not had any major issues since. Documentation at handover was a bit thin and we had to ask for more detail.

I would recommend Candev Studio to anyone looking for a dependable AI & Machine Learning partner.

What services did the company provide for your project?

End-to-end AI & Machine Learning — from requirements and design through to deployment and a support period afterwards.

Delivered on time and stayed involved after launch

Kelly Henderson / VP of Engineering | Apr 30, 2026

Overall we had a good experience working with Candev Studio. Communication was consistent. We had a weekly call, a shared Slack channel and a project board we could check at any time. 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.

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. I would recommend Candev Studio to anyone looking for a dependable Mobile App Development partner.

Project summary

Our company worked with Candev Studio to rebuild our existing mobile app, which had poor reviews and frequent crashes. The project was split into milestones, with a working build shared at the end of each one. The project took roughly 2 months from kickoff to launch.

Daniel Qureshi / Co-Founder | Apr 14, 2026

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

Stephanie Henderson / Managing Director | Mar 10, 2026

We got a good result in the end, but the road there had a few bumps. 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.

We are already seeing better numbers than before the project. We had to follow up a few times on smaller bug fixes after launch. We would definitely work with them again.

Project summary

We hired Candev Studio to build a demand forecasting model on top of our sales data. The work covered requirements, design, development, testing and launch support. The project took roughly 7 months from kickoff to launch.

Niamh Byrne / Founder & CEO | Feb 23, 2026

We got a good result in the end, but the road there had a few bumps. Communication was consistent. We had a weekly call, a shared Slack channel and a project board we could check at any time.
