They listened, asked the right questions, and delivered

Divya Mehta / Co-Founder | Sep 12, 2026

We were very happy with how this project went. 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.

The AI & Machine Learning 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

We hired SF AppWorks to automate document data extraction that our team was doing by hand. The work covered requirements, design, development, testing and launch support. The project took roughly 4 months from kickoff to launch.

Aoife Kelly / Director | Sep 03, 2026

We were very happy with how this project went. Even with the time zone difference, responses usually came the same day and we never felt left in the dark. We dealt with the same core team throughout, so we did not have to keep re-explaining things.

Skilled Mobile App Development Team That Understood Our Business

Lerato Nkosi / CEO | Jul 24, 2026

Our experience with SF AppWorks was really positive from start to finish. They took the time to understand our business before suggesting anything, which we appreciated after previous agencies jumped straight into building. They were upfront about what was realistic within our budget, which helped us prioritise the right features. Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline.

We launched on schedule and have not had any major issues since. Overall, a team we trust and plan to keep working with.

Project summary

Our company worked with SF AppWorks to develop a field-staff app with offline mode that syncs back to our main system. They worked alongside our in-house team, which mostly handled business requirements and testing. The project took roughly 2 months from kickoff to launch.

Great Experience With SF AppWorks on Our Software Development Project

Faisal Al Otaibi / Co-Founder | Jul 04, 2026

SF AppWorks did good work for us, and we would use them again. They were upfront about what was realistic within our budget, which helped us prioritise the right features. 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.

The Software Development work has already made a noticeable difference — tasks that used to take hours now take minutes. There were some early misunderstandings on requirements that took a few rounds to sort out. If you need a team that communicates well and delivers, they are a good choice.

Project summary

Our company worked with SF AppWorks to rebuild an internal order management system that had outgrown its original design. Scope included discovery workshops, development in two-week sprints and a short support period after launch. We worked together for around 3 months.

SF AppWorks 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.
