Strong Technical Skills and a Very Responsive IT Consulting Team

Jason Coleman / Founder & CEO | Oct 13, 2026

We were very happy with how this project went. Communication was consistent. We had a weekly call, a shared Slack channel and a project board we could check at any time. The developers were knowledgeable and made a few suggestions that ended up saving us time and money.

We launched on schedule and have not had any major issues since. We would definitely work with them again.

Project summary

Naked Penguin Boy was brought in to assess our architecture before a major product rebuild. They also took care of integrations with a couple of third-party tools we already used. We worked together for around 8 months.

Naked Penguin Boy Delivered a Quality IT Consulting Solution on Time

Arjun Agarwal / Operations Manager | Aug 10, 2026

Overall we had a good experience working with Naked Penguin Boy. We dealt with the same core team throughout, so we did not have to keep re-explaining things. They took the time to understand our business before suggesting anything, which we appreciated after previous agencies jumped straight into building.

Feedback from our customers has been very positive so far. We had to follow up a few times on smaller bug fixes after launch. We are already discussing the next phase with them.

Project summary

Naked Penguin Boy was brought in to help us choose and plan the rollout of a new core system. The project was split into milestones, with a working build shared at the end of each one. The engagement ran for about 5 months.

They listened, asked the right questions, and delivered

Oliver Hughes / CEO | Jul 05, 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. Communication was consistent. We had a weekly call, a shared Slack channel and a project board we could check at any time. The team asked a lot of questions early on, which felt slow at first but meant there were very few surprises later.

We are already seeing better numbers than before the project.

We are already discussing the next phase with them.

Project summary

We partnered with Naked Penguin Boy to build a demand forecasting model on top of our sales data. The project was split into milestones, with a working build shared at the end of each one. Overall it was a 6-month engagement.

Dependable Software Development Partner for a Growing Agriculture Business

Eric Reed / Co-Founder & CTO | Apr 17, 2026

I would rate this engagement highly on almost every front. Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline.
