Strong Technical Skills and a Very Responsive Quality Assurance & Testing Team

Divya Joshi / Owner | Sep 27, 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. 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.

Feedback from our customers has been very positive so far. We are already discussing the next phase with them.

Project summary

We hired Shiny Frog to run performance and load testing ahead of a big launch. The project was split into milestones, with a working build shared at the end of each one. The engagement ran for about 3 months.

Great Experience With Shiny Frog on Our CRM Development Project

Jack Harris / Founder & CEO | Sep 24, 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. Even with the time zone difference, responses usually came the same day and we never felt left in the dark.

Feedback from our customers has been very positive so far.

If you need a team that communicates well and delivers, they are a good choice.

Project summary

Shiny Frog was brought in to build custom CRM modules for how our sales process actually works. The work covered requirements, design, development, testing and launch support. We worked together for around 7 months.

Solid IoT Development Work With Clear Communication Throughout

Thijs Bakker / Co-Founder & CTO | Sep 22, 2026

I would rate this engagement highly on almost every front. 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. Even with the time zone difference, responses usually came the same day and we never felt left in the dark.

It has made a real difference to how our team works day to day. We would definitely work with them again.

Delivered on time and stayed involved after launch

Laura Koch / Owner | Jun 29, 2026

We were very happy with how this project went. They were upfront about what was realistic within our budget, which helped us prioritise the right features. 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 launched on schedule and have not had any major issues since.

We are already discussing the next phase with them.

Niamh Byrne / VP of Engineering | May 25, 2026

Our experience with Shiny Frog 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. 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.

It has made a real difference to how our team works day to day. I would recommend Shiny Frog to anyone looking for a dependable Game Development partner.
