Shadow System Company Delivered a Quality UI/UX Design Solution on Time

Abdullah Al Harbi / Founder | Sep 02, 2026

Shadow System Company did an excellent job for us. 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. 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

We hired Shadow System Company to run user research and create new designs for our mobile app. Scope included discovery workshops, development in two-week sprints and a short support period after launch. Overall it was a 2-month engagement.

I'm the Founder at Clearfield Utilities Co, a Energy & Utilities company based in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. I look after our technology and work closely with outside partners on bigger projects.
What specific problem or business challenge led you to hire this company?
Our team was spending too much time on manual work. The goal was to run user research and create new designs for our mobile app so they could focus on customers.
What services did the company provide for your project?
UI/UX Design, plus QA and some consulting on how to structure the project.
Why did you choose this company over other providers you considered?

Better than we expected. They pointed out a few things we had not thought about.
How was your overall experience with their communication and project management?
Organised and transparent. Their project manager kept the project on track and flagged risks early.
Did the company deliver the project on time and within your expected budget?
Mostly. One milestone slipped by about a week, but the final delivery was on schedule and the budget held.

Solid delivery, though timelines needed some pushing

Ashley Patel / General Manager | Aug 30, 2026

We got a good result in the end, but the road there had a few bumps. 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.

The Blockchain Development work has already made a noticeable difference — tasks that used to take hours now take minutes. Their team changed one developer midway, which slowed things down for a couple of weeks.

We are already discussing the next phase with them.

Project summary

Shadow System Company was brought in to develop and audit smart contracts for a tokenized loyalty program. Scope included discovery workshops, development in two-week sprints and a short support period after launch. The engagement ran for about 5 months.

Why did you choose this company over other providers you considered?

Well. There were a couple of points we had to clarify early on, but after that they were spot on.

Quality work, a little slower than we planned

Matt Tremblay / Founder & CEO | Aug 20, 2026

The final product works well for us, although the process could have been smoother. The team asked a lot of questions early on, which felt slow at first but meant there were very few surprises later. Communication was consistent. We had a weekly call, a shared Slack channel and a project board we could check at any time. They were upfront about what was realistic within our budget, which helped us prioritise the right features.

It has made a real difference to how our team works day to day. Documentation at handover was a bit thin and we had to ask for more detail.

Happy to recommend them.

Dependable UI/UX Design Partner for a Growing Mining & Metals Business

Kavya Joshi / Director | Jul 02, 2026

We were very happy with how this project went. They shared working builds regularly, so we could test early and give feedback before things were locked in. 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.

It has made a real difference to how our team works day to day. If you need a team that communicates well and delivers, they are a good choice.

Professional Software Development Team, Smooth Delivery From Start to Finish

Ananya Sharma / Chief Digital Officer | May 04, 2026

Honestly, this was one of the smoothest projects we have run with an outside team. They were upfront about what was realistic within our budget, which helped us prioritise the right features.

Capable AI & Machine Learning team — happy with the end result

Huda Al Harbi / Program Manager | Apr 24, 2026

The final product works well for us, although the process could have been smoother. 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. The team asked a lot of questions early on, which felt slow at first but meant there were very few surprises later.

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.

Honest advice and solid execution

Meera Menon / Engineering Manager | Mar 12, 2026

Honestly, this was one of the smoothest projects we have run with an outside team. They shared working builds regularly, so we could test early and give feedback before things were locked in.

Reliable UI/UX Design Partner That Delivered What They Promised

Ryan Henderson / Chief Digital Officer | Feb 23, 2026

Overall we had a good experience working with Shadow System Company. They took the time to understand our business before suggesting anything, which we appreciated after previous agencies jumped straight into building. 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. They shared working builds regularly, so we could test early and give feedback before things were locked in.

Feedback from our customers has been very positive so far. Documentation at handover was a bit thin and we had to ask for more detail. Happy to recommend them.
