Strong Technical Skills and a Very Responsive Cloud Services Team

Amit Kulkarni / Co-Founder | Oct 17, 2026

Our experience with CZ Brains was really positive from start to finish. The developers were knowledgeable and made a few suggestions that ended up saving us time and money. We dealt with the same core team throughout, so we did not have to keep re-explaining things.

The Cloud 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.

Project summary

We hired CZ Brains to reduce our cloud bill and clean up an AWS setup that had grown messy over the years. They also took care of integrations with a couple of third-party tools we already used. We worked together for around 6 months.

They listened, asked the right questions, and delivered

Lotte Smit / Head of Digital Transformation | Aug 21, 2026

CZ Brains did good work for us, and we would use them again. 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.

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. Happy to recommend them.

Skilled Game Development Team That Understood Our Business

Sara Fernandes / Head of Engineering | Jul 22, 2026

Overall we had a good experience working with CZ Brains. We dealt with the same core team throughout, so we did not have to keep re-explaining things. 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.

It has made a real difference to how our team works day to day. Documentation at handover was a bit thin and we had to ask for more detail. I would recommend CZ Brains to anyone looking for a dependable Game Development partner.

Project summary

Our company worked with CZ Brains to port our game to new platforms and improve performance. The work covered requirements, design, development, testing and launch support. The engagement ran for about 4 months.

Quality work, a little slower than we planned

Brandon Patel / Co-Founder | Apr 04, 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. They took the time to understand our business before suggesting anything, which we appreciated after previous agencies jumped straight into building.

Since launch, everything has been stable and our team has adapted to it quickly. Their team changed one developer midway, which slowed things down for a couple of weeks. I would recommend CZ Brains to anyone looking for a dependable Cloud Services partner.

Project summary

We partnered with CZ Brains to move our application to Azure and set up proper backups and monitoring. They worked alongside our in-house team, which mostly handled business requirements and testing. Overall it was a 3-month engagement.

Strong Technical Skills and a Very Responsive Mobile App Development Team

Hannah Clarke / CEO | Jan 13, 2026

Honestly, this was one of the smoothest projects we have run with an outside team. The developers were knowledgeable and made a few suggestions that ended up saving us time and money.
