Cross-Platform Review from Mark Gratiot
In addition to building out a native remote inspection app for iPads, Zco concurrently ported the software to a Xamarin platform for Windows users. Zco has released nine major iterations of the iPad app, each available in the App Store, as well as the initial version of the cross-platform Xamarin build. Their nimble team boasts a wide breadth of skills to match any given situation. Having clear documentation upfront has reduced onboarding time.

Its admirable how the Abstract team always see projects through from conception to completion. They apply creative thinking to implement a vision for the company. Their job knowledge and quality of work entails accuracy, thoroughness, competence, time management, attention to detail, the ability to meet deadlines, and the ability to work with others. Time after time, I am continually impressed by the results the Abstract team produces. Their work ethic speaks for itself. I truly enjoy working with them!
Eric Roetzer's Review Sourced from Google
I’ve worked at Abstract for nearly two years now in a project management/marketing role and my experience has been nothing short of enjoyable.One of the things I value most at Abstract is how transparent management is. It’s easy to keep everyone informed when there’s good news to share; it’s much harder to be transparent when times are tough. They do a great job keeping us informed no matter where we’re at in the business cycle. This commitment to transparency extends to clients as well, as they are provided 24/7 access to our project management software once their project enters production. I’ve never worked for a company that valued and maintained transparency internally and externally like Abstract has.The office space is unique, there’s ping pong, VR and AR headsets, 3D printers, arcades, drink/snack bar, etc, and a lot of people would call that culture. The real culture, though, is all about the people that work here.We have a great crew of developers/animators who make our cutting edge VR/AR/Software experiences come to life. The quality of work this team puts out continues to amaze me, and I can’t wait to see what we get into next.I’m happy I crossed paths with Abstract, it’s been my favorite place to work by far.

We contacted Abstract for a video project we needed to have done with a quick turn around. Brian and his team were professional and got along great with mine. They were always on the ball through the whole project. They were able to keep to our tight deadline, especially with our last-minute changes and additions. We will work with them for future projects as well as recommend them to our customers.

I came to Faction Studio after two previous developers had completely botched a product. One of them, who supposedly said they won an Omma award, was hired first due to the client's intense specificity and attention to detail.No one was able to deliver - until I went to Faction Studio.These guys are just good at their jobs, it's that simple. They do great work, they work hard, they don't make excuses, and they aren't afraid to go the extra mile.One of the best moves I made in my business was signing Faction Studios, who will be developing all of my future client's websites moving forward.

I applied for a job with this company and waited a long time without any response. I tried calling the front reception for an update, but after asking for my name, they simply rejected my application without providing any reason. This feels unprofessional and discouraging for candidates. If applications are going to be rejected without explanation, it’s unclear why job openings are advertised in the first place. Better communication and transparency would really improve the candidate experience wasting time

Attended here for testing domain, company is good you need to show your communication skill, interest in gaming
You are ready to hire a VR or AR agency when you have a clear use case connected to a measurable business goal, not just general excitement about immersive technology. A strong sign you are too early is when nobody can clearly explain what success would actually look like.
Before reaching out to AR or VR companies, make sure you can answer a few basic questions:
If those things are still unclear, the first part of the agency engagement will likely be spent defining fundamentals instead of building the product, and you will still be paying for that time.
The organizations that get the best results from VR and AR agencies usually come in with a defined goal, realistic expectations, and a clear internal owner for the project. The brief does not need to be perfect, but it should be developed enough for the agency to improve and challenge it, not create it from scratch.
For most companies, starting with a pilot is the smarter option. It lowers risk, helps validate the idea, and usually leads to a better full build later.
A good VR or AR pilot should focus on:
The goal is to learn quickly: Does the experience feel intuitive? Are users comfortable using it? Does it actually improve behavior or outcomes the way you expected? Those insights are often more valuable than the demo itself.
A pilot is usually enough to reveal practical issues around interaction design, hardware limitations, onboarding, and user adoption before you commit to a much larger investment.
Committing to a full build upfront only makes sense in a few situations:
Strong VR and AR agencies will usually support a phased approach and help define what should be tested before scaling the project further.
A fair VR or AR contract should clearly give you ownership of the final deliverables: 3D assets, environments, source files, and interaction logic. If ownership terms are vague or missing, address that before signing.
A few areas deserve close attention:
Strong VR and AR agencies are usually comfortable with reasonable IP ownership and portability terms. If an agency pushes back heavily on those points, pay attention.
Post-launch support is where many VR and AR projects become unexpectedly expensive. Before signing with an agency, make sure you understand exactly what happens after launch.
A few important questions to ask:
ROI for a VR or AR project starts with one question: what business metric are you trying to improve, and what is that improvement worth financially? If you cannot answer that before talking to agencies, the project is still too vague.
The process is simpler than it sounds. Start with your current baseline: what does the problem cost today, or what result are you trying to improve? Then estimate what a realistic improvement would save or generate each year.
For example:
Industry benchmarks can help set expectations. Some enterprise AR/VR deployments report:
Then compare those potential gains against the full project cost, not just the agency fee. Include:
A VR project that costs $150,000 and saves $200,000 a year in training costs is relatively easy to justify. One that mainly creates a visually impressive demo without measurable business impact is much harder to defend financially.
Good VR and AR agencies should also be able to show examples of projects where they tracked results before and after launch. If they cannot connect the work to a business metric, that is important to notice early.
Rated 4.8 on Google and 4.7 on Trustpilot, DesignRush Agency Directory is a reliable resource for finding VR & augmented reality companies. We owe this to our executive selection team, which follows a strict screening process when featuring agencies on the platform, assessing key performance indicators, like portfolio, client reviews, and industry reputation.

DesignRush sustains a directory of over 30,000 agencies categorized by service category, location, expertise, and reviews. We build our database in two ways:
Agencies can also reach out to DesignRush and must go through the verification process prior to being listed.
The biggest red flags when evaluating AR and VR companies are a portfolio full of demos with no real-world deployments, vague answers about device compatibility, and case studies that emphasize visual impressiveness rather than business outcomes.
Watch for these specifically:
Your use case requires VR or AR when the experience depends on spatial interaction, physical simulation, or the placement of digital content in a real environment. If a video, standard app, or 3D model on a screen can deliver the same result, the simpler option is usually better, faster, and cheaper.
A few useful checks:
If the answer is mostly no, you probably do not need VR or AR yet. Strong virtual and augmented reality companies will tell you that early instead of forcing immersive tech into the project.
Most buyers budget for the initial build and underestimate the ongoing costs. A VR or AR agency usually prices the experience itself, not everything needed to maintain it long term.
The costs that surprise buyers most often:
Building an AR/VR app usually takes between 3 and 12 months, depending on the complexity, features, integrations, graphics quality, and team size.
The timelines increase when the project includes:
A good VR or AR agency focuses on the problem first, not just the technology. Average agencies talk mostly about what is possible. Strong ones explain what actually makes sense for your goals, budget, and users.
Before signing, look for these signs:
If an AR or VR company avoids these conversations, push harder before committing.

Before signing, look for these signs:
If an AR or VR company avoids these conversations, push harder before committing.
You do not need a technical background to evaluate VR or AR agencies well. Focus on business outcomes and user experience, not the underlying technology.
A few things to look at:
Technology changes during VR and AR projects are common. New device releases, platform updates, and SDK changes can all affect the build. If the contract does not clearly define responsibility, expect to pay for the extra work.
Before signing, clarify:
A strong VR or AR agency will separate technology-driven changes from client-requested scope changes and explain both clearly upfront.
A VR or AR experience delivers real business value when it improves a measurable result that existed before the project started, not just when it looks impressive.
The right metrics depend on the use case:
What matters is comparison. You should be able to measure performance before and after launch.
When evaluating VR or AR agencies, ask for examples where they tracked a business metric from deployment to results. If they can only show visuals and demos, that is not proof of impact.
Most VR and AR case studies show that a project was built and looked impressive. Far fewer prove that it actually delivered results.
To evaluate a case study properly, look for four things:
If a case study cannot answer those clearly, it is mostly a portfolio piece, not strong evidence.
The best VR and AR agencies can walk through at least one project end-to-end with real numbers, measurable outcomes, and clear business impact.
