Great team to work with — professional, responsive and reliable

Andre Johnson / Co-Founder | Sep 25, 2026

We were very happy with how this project went. They shared working builds regularly, so we could test early and give feedback before things were locked in. 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.

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

Project summary

We engaged Fifth Estate Agency to move our application to Azure and set up proper backups and monitoring. The project was split into milestones, with a working build shared at the end of each one. Overall it was a 9-month engagement.

Great Experience With Fifth Estate Agency on Our Cloud Services Project

Ryan Reed / Product Manager | Sep 23, 2026

I would rate this engagement highly on almost every front. They shared working builds regularly, so we could test early and give feedback before things were locked in. We dealt with the same core team throughout, so we did not have to keep re-explaining things. Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline.

The Cloud Services 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.

Project summary

Our company worked with Fifth Estate Agency to reduce our cloud bill and clean up an AWS setup that had grown messy over the years. Their team handled planning, development and QA, with our product owner signing off each milestone. The project took roughly 8 months from kickoff to launch.

Reliable Game Development Partner That Delivered What They Promised

Callum Harding / Senior Engineering Manager | Sep 06, 2026

Honestly, this was one of the smoothest projects we have run with an outside team. 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. Happy to recommend them.

Project summary

We engaged Fifth Estate Agency to port our game to new platforms and improve performance. They worked alongside our in-house team, which mostly handled business requirements and testing. Overall it was a 3-month engagement.

Would happily work with them again

Noura Khan / Owner | Aug 06, 2026

Overall we had a good experience working with Fifth Estate Agency. 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. 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.

Easy to work with and very transparent on timelines and cost

Megan Johnson / Director | May 26, 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. They took the time to understand our business before suggesting anything, which we appreciated after previous agencies jumped straight into building. The team asked a lot of questions early on, which felt slow at first but meant there were very few surprises later.

Feedback from our customers has been very positive so far.

We are already discussing the next phase with them.
