Solid delivery, though timelines needed some pushing

Faisal Al Harbi / Head of Digital | Sep 27, 2026

The final product works well for us, although the process could have been smoother. Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline. 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.

We are already seeing better numbers than before the project. 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

We hired Sofona to build iOS and Android apps for our customers, including booking, payments and push notifications. Scope included discovery workshops, development in two-week sprints and a short support period after launch. The engagement ran for about 2 months.

Dependable IT Managed Services Partner for a Growing Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology Business

Amy Lloyd / Co-Founder & CTO | Aug 31, 2026

The project went well overall. The developers were knowledgeable and made a few suggestions that ended up saving us time and money. 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.

We are already discussing the next phase with them.

Our company worked with Sofona to manage our servers, backups and helpdesk. Their team handled planning, development and QA, with our product owner signing off each milestone. The project took roughly 2 months from kickoff to launch.

Quality work, a little slower than we planned

Charlotte Wright / Managing Director | Aug 14, 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.

The result looks great and performs well, and our internal team found it easy to take over. Documentation at handover was a bit thin and we had to ask for more detail.

We would definitely work with them again.

Project summary

Our company worked with Sofona to help us choose and plan the rollout of a new core system. The work covered requirements, design, development, testing and launch support. We worked together for around 9 months.

They listened, asked the right questions, and delivered

Marcus Goh / CTO | Jun 24, 2026

Our experience with Sofona was really positive from start to finish. The team asked a lot of questions early on, which felt slow at first but meant there were very few surprises later. 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.

Good work overall, with a few bumps along the way

Harsh Nair / Co-Founder & CTO | Apr 07, 2026

The final product works well for us, although the process could have been smoother. Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline. The developers were knowledgeable and made a few suggestions that ended up saving us time and money.

Feedback from our customers has been very positive so far. Their team changed one developer midway, which slowed things down for a couple of weeks.

Exceeded our expectations on quality and communication

Rachel Tan / CEO | Feb 04, 2026

Honestly, this was one of the smoothest projects we have run with an outside team. The team asked a lot of questions early on, which felt slow at first but meant there were very few surprises later. We dealt with the same core team throughout, so we did not have to keep re-explaining things.
