A reliable long-term partner for our tech needs

Meera Gupta / Director of Technology | Sep 10, 2026

Overall we had a good experience working with Heron Technology. 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. 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. There were some early misunderstandings on requirements that took a few rounds to sort out. I would recommend Heron Technology to anyone looking for a dependable Web Development partner.

Project summary

We engaged Heron Technology to rebuild a slow, outdated web app and move it to a new framework. Scope included discovery workshops, development in two-week sprints and a short support period after launch. Overall it was a 8-month engagement.

Would happily work with them again

James Turner / CEO | Aug 19, 2026

Heron Technology did an excellent job for us. We dealt with the same core team throughout, so we did not have to keep re-explaining things. 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.

It has made a real difference to how our team works day to day. Happy to recommend them.

Solid delivery, though timelines needed some pushing

Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline.
