Dependable IoT Development Partner for a Growing Energy & Utilities Business

Chloe Thompson / IT Director | Sep 28, 2026

Uptempo Global did good work for us, and we would use them again. The developers were knowledgeable and made a few suggestions that ended up saving us time and money. 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.

The result looks great and performs well, and our internal team found it easy to take over. Estimates on a few features were optimistic and those took longer than planned. I would recommend Uptempo Global to anyone looking for a dependable IoT Development partner.

Project summary

We engaged Uptempo Global to set up a sensor network and alerts for our cold storage facilities. The project was split into milestones, with a working build shared at the end of each one. We worked together for around 6 months.

Good work overall, with a few bumps along the way

Derek Graham / Co-Founder | Jun 13, 2026

The final product works well for us, although the process could have been smoother. 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.

Since launch, everything has been stable and our team has adapted to it quickly. We had to follow up a few times on smaller bug fixes after launch. I would recommend Uptempo Global to anyone looking for a dependable Mobile App Development partner.

Project summary

We hired Uptempo Global to develop a field-staff app with offline mode that syncs back to our main system. Scope included discovery workshops, development in two-week sprints and a short support period after launch. We worked together for around 6 months.

Emma Sandhu / Operations Manager | May 09, 2026

I would rate this engagement highly on almost every front. They shared working builds regularly, so we could test early and give feedback before things were locked in. 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.

Feedback from our customers has been very positive so far. Happy to recommend them.

Lachlan Stewart / Founder & CEO | Apr 10, 2026

I would rate this engagement highly on almost every front. The developers were knowledgeable and made a few suggestions that ended up saving us time and money.
