trendSpark Reviews

Exceeded our expectations on quality and communication

Tyler Johnson / CEO | Oct 09, 2026

Honestly, this was one of the smoothest projects we have run with an outside team. We dealt with the same core team throughout, so we did not have to keep re-explaining things. Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline. They took the time to understand our business before suggesting anything, which we appreciated after previous agencies jumped straight into building.

It has made a real difference to how our team works day to day. Happy to recommend them.

Project summary

We partnered with trendSpark to port our game to new platforms and improve performance. Their team handled planning, development and QA, with our product owner signing off each milestone. The engagement ran for about 7 months.

trendSpark did an excellent job for us. 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.

A reliable long-term partner for our tech needs

Mitch Taylor / Owner | Jun 10, 2026

trendSpark did an excellent job for us. Communication was consistent. We had a weekly call, a shared Slack channel and a project board we could check at any time. 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. We would definitely work with them again.
