Solid E-commerce Development Work With Clear Communication Throughout

Andre Graham / Director of IT | Oct 18, 2026

The project went well overall. The developers were knowledgeable and made a few suggestions that ended up saving us time and money. 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.

Happy to recommend them.

Project summary

We partnered with Helicon to build a Shopify store with custom features for our product range. They worked alongside our in-house team, which mostly handled business requirements and testing. We worked together for around 6 months.

Dependable Quality Assurance & Testing Partner for a Growing Travel & Hospitality Business

Sarah Tremblay / IT Director | Aug 25, 2026

Helicon did good work for us, and we would use them again. 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. We dealt with the same core team throughout, so we did not have to keep re-explaining things.

We launched on schedule and have not had any major issues since. Estimates on a few features were optimistic and those took longer than planned. Happy to recommend them.

Project summary

We engaged Helicon to run performance and load testing ahead of a big launch. The project was split into milestones, with a working build shared at the end of each one. Overall it was a 7-month engagement.

Good value and a team that genuinely cares about the result

Ruby Ngata / Co-Founder & CTO | Jul 22, 2026

Overall we had a good experience working with Helicon. 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.

It has made a real difference to how our team works day to day. Their team changed one developer midway, which slowed things down for a couple of weeks. I would recommend Helicon to anyone looking for a dependable IT Consulting partner.
