Professional Web Development Team, Smooth Delivery From Start to Finish

Callum Edwards / Director of Technology | Sep 20, 2026

Needlancer did an excellent job for us. They took the time to understand our business before suggesting anything, which we appreciated after previous agencies jumped straight into building. We dealt with the same core team throughout, so we did not have to keep re-explaining things.

Since launch, everything has been stable and our team has adapted to it quickly.

I would recommend Needlancer to anyone looking for a dependable Web Development partner.

Project summary

We engaged Needlancer to redesign and rebuild our company website on a modern stack. The project was split into milestones, with a working build shared at the end of each one. Overall it was a 7-month engagement.

Solid Software Development Work With Clear Communication Throughout

Laura Schmidt / Head of Digital Transformation | Aug 10, 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. Even with the time zone difference, responses usually came the same day and we never felt left in the dark. They shared working builds regularly, so we could test early and give feedback before things were locked in.

The Software Development work has already made a noticeable difference — tasks that used to take hours now take minutes. Happy to recommend them.

Project summary

We hired Needlancer to build a custom operations platform to replace the spreadsheets and email threads we were running the business on. Scope included discovery workshops, development in two-week sprints and a short support period after launch. The project took roughly 9 months from kickoff to launch.

Good value and a team that genuinely cares about the result

Kevin Sullivan / Director | Mar 31, 2026

Needlancer did an excellent job for us. They were upfront about what was realistic within our budget, which helped us prioritise the right features. 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 would definitely work with them again.

Needlancer did good work for us, and we would use them again. Even with the time zone difference, responses usually came the same day and we never felt left in the dark.
