Would happily work with them again

Tyler Johnson / VP of Engineering | Oct 10, 2026

dreist 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. Even with the time zone difference, responses usually came the same day and we never felt left in the dark.

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. We would definitely work with them again.

Project summary

We hired dreist to set up CI/CD pipelines and automated deployments for our product. They worked alongside our in-house team, which mostly handled business requirements and testing. The project took roughly 4 months from kickoff to launch.

Exceeded our expectations on quality and communication

Olivia Taylor / Operations Manager | Oct 10, 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. 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.

It has made a real difference to how our team works day to day. We are already discussing the next phase with them.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions about our specialized technology solutions? We have the answers to help you make informed decisions.

dreist typically covers the standard range of software development work — mobile apps, web platforms, custom internal tools, UI/UX design, cloud infrastructure, AI integrations, and larger enterprise builds. Its core focus areas include VR App Development, Web Development and Mobile App Development.

What dreist charges comes down to a handful of variables — how complex the project is, the number of development hours involved, the tech stack required, team size, and which engagement model you pick. Based on available data, dreist's typical hourly rate is around $100 - $149.

The exact stack shifts by project, but dreist commonly works across things like React, Angular, Vue.js, Node.js, Python, .NET, Java, PHP, Flutter, React Native, native iOS and Android, and cloud platforms like AWS and Azure. For context, it has experience across industries such as Retail & E-commerce, Education, Aerospace & Defense, Gaming & Gambling, Travel & Hospitality and Financial Services, and it reports a team size of 2 - 9 professionals.

It depends heavily on scope. A lean MVP might be a matter of weeks, while a full enterprise system or a larger digital transformation project can stretch into months once you factor in development, testing, and deployment. With a team of 2 - 9 professionals, dreist can scale resources based on project urgency.

Most businesses reach dreist through its website, a direct email, or a contact form — any of which works for discussing what you need, booking an initial conversation, or asking for a rough estimate. For context, it has experience across industries such as Retail & E-commerce, Education, Aerospace & Defense, Gaming & Gambling, Travel & Hospitality and Financial Services, and its listed capabilities span VR App Development, Web Development and Mobile App Development.

That depends on where dreist is based and who they primarily serve — some firms like this operate fully offshore, some are local-first, and plenty run a hybrid model that mixes both. For context, its listed capabilities span VR App Development, Web Development and Mobile App Development, and it has been operating since 2015.

Usually, yes — a dedicated developer arrangement is a common option with firms like dreist, where you get engineers working exclusively on your project as an extension of your in-house team rather than as a separate outsourced unit. For context, its listed capabilities span VR App Development, Web Development and Mobile App Development, and it reports a team size of 2 - 9 professionals.

It's a common line of work for a company like dreist — multi-tenant architecture, subscription billing hooked up properly, and cloud-native deployment built for a product meant to scale as a service rather than a one-off build. For context, it has experience across industries such as Retail & E-commerce, Education, Aerospace & Defense, Gaming & Gambling, Travel & Hospitality and Financial Services, and its typical hourly rate is around $100 - $149.

dreist generally runs something close to a standard structured process — requirements gathering, UI/UX design, development in agile sprints, QA testing along the way, deployment, and support once it's live. For context, its listed capabilities span VR App Development, Web Development and Mobile App Development, and its typical hourly rate is around $100 - $149.

The most reliable route is giving dreist a clear, specific brief up front — through their website form, a direct email, or a call — since a vague ask tends to get a vague answer back, while a concrete one usually gets a proper estimate. For context, it has experience across industries such as Retail & E-commerce, Education, Aerospace & Defense, Gaming & Gambling, Travel & Hospitality and Financial Services, and its listed capabilities span VR App Development, Web Development and Mobile App Development.
