Staff Augmentation Review from Mitya Smusin
Solveit managed our comprehensive eCommerce project, developing a full-featured web platform with Node.js and React technologies. The agency also created a Flutter-based mobile app for seamless data synchronization across iOS and Android devices. We were thoroughly pleased with Solveit's expertise and adherence to deadlines. It provided timely updates and communicated openly about our project's status. Solveit's proactive approach and transparency were exceptional, particularly during the staff augmentation process, where the agency efficiently matched us with qualified candidates and facilitated a smooth onboarding. We were satisfied with Solveit's high-quality work and exceptional support.
Design Services Review from Anna Harissis
They have an incredibly hardworking team at affordable pricing. SolveIt has built the app earlier than expected, and they continue to complete new tasks within the client's budget and timeline.
iPhone Review from Gabriel Sabadin
We engaged SolveIt to develop a minimum viable product (MVP) app, including a user-friendly iOS design, an artificial intelligence (AI) model, and a monetization strategy while ensuring General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliance and preparing for future integrations. Despite a tight deadline, SolveIt delivered the app on time and efficiently handled beta-testing within three months, allowing us to gather feedback and launch successfully. We acquired our first 1,000 users within a month of launching the app. SolveIt's team communicated effectively, addressed issues proactively, and maintained a high level of autonomy, bringing diverse expertise that greatly benefited our project. We appreciate the agency's dedication and professionalism.

Web Design Review from Mackenzie Shriner
I contracted design in DC to build me a custom website. they were accommodating of my budget, very responsive, and gave good insight on layout, content and design. the process was very straightforward and the final product is great!
Web Design Review from Jo Maney
DDC has been an excellent partner since we engaged with them in 2023. The DDC team worked with us to completely redesign our website and work to provide ongoing digital marketing services. The DDC team has been responsive, proactive, and thorough with their work. They are also very transparent about how they operate and how much time special projects will require. We have referred DDC to several clients and partners thanks to their outstanding process and product. DDC is a very professional, creative, and well-organized team.
Web Design Review from Sapna Doshi, Ph.D.
My experience working with Design in DC was incredible. Everyone was friendly, approachable, and seemed to genuinely care about helping create the best possible website for my business. They were also invested in making sure the process was one in which I enjoyed and felt taken care of. The regular meetings made me feel like I was a priority and that progress was continually being made. I so appreciated the attention to detail in regards to the user experience. The collaboration in understanding my wishes and desires for the website and user experience was met with patience and paying attention to detail on my behalf. Not only were they taking my suggestions but offering their own to help me maximize the potential of my website. The design and functionality is more than what I could have imagined. I know, undoubtedly, that the work that Design in DC did for me will help my business grow. After wasting money in years past on website designers, I was worried I'd be doing hte same here. I was wrong. I don't think I'll ever need to search for another website designer group again. I would recommend this group to anyone I know. Thank you, Design in DC! It was an absolute pleasure working with all of you!

Product Design Review from Chris Milner
UXReactor helped us with a UI/UX research process, which included in-person interviews where they walked users through unboxing, connecting, and using the features of our smart air conditioner. From there, the team took the findings and produced a report for us to make improvements to our app and increase our activation rates. In addition to the report, UXReactor also redesigned some parts of our app using Figma.The project required a very iterative process, so we required more than one discovery call to get started. In fact, they didn't just work with me; we also integrated our consumer marketing insights team to identify participants. We also collaborated with them to figure out how to recruit the right users based on our target customer profiles.Additionally,UXReactor recruited participants for us, going through their database to find actual users. Then, they brought a researcher and a designer to interview all the participants on-site in their location. That was actually a challenge because we're a remote team, but we needed a physical location to show the actual air conditioner to the participants.After the interviews, UXReactor worked with us to go through the results and the report's structure. We had multiple revisions to ensure that we were pulling out the insights I wanted to find on it. After the report was complete, they actually delivered it to our overseas team, doing a presentation that included the insights and recommendations.
Product Design Review from Dhirendra Kumar
The objective was to create a safety release which would activate at certain weights and fit into an already existing design. Porticos was able to create a strong, lightweight and reusable buckle which fit perfectly into the design both functionally and visually. Their involvement improved the overall safety of our therapeutic equipment, and allowed us to develop another complete product line of similar products with other applications.
UI/UX Design Review from Kamil Qui
The project scope was to to refresh the UX and visual design.The project lead really helped . I was taking care of a lot of other things, so I appreciated getting weekly updates from them. They detailed the work they did and then outlined the next items on the list. They brought up potential roadblocks in advance, making sure wed still meet deadlines.UXReactor worked very closely with us, so they were an extended team from my perspective. I could call upon and engage them in discussions, and we had daily standups.They followed a systematic methodology, and that helped us go through the process of doing user research, collecting feedback, and combining that with the existing product features. Using that, we were able to create a framework that allowed us to continue development.

Mobile App Development Review from Domenic Fraboni
We couldn't be more pleased with our experience with TouchZen. They took over a bad situation left behind by our previous development team and have been able to continue to build new features while cleaning up the old project. We have been very pleased with their developers responsiveness as well as the project management. I would highly recommend working with them for any of your web or mobile app development needs.
B2C Apps Review from Brett Lassig
We have been extremely impressed with TouchZen's development team behind the Get Cover Mobile App. Their approach has been collaborative, and responsive to the needs of our warranty and claims environment.The app is intuitive for end users while still delivering the robust functionality needed on the backend, especially around claims processing, and real-time updates.Their diligence has made a significant impact. Features like streamlined claim submission, status tracking, have enhanced both customer satisfaction and operational efficiency.Overall, this highly capable and professional development team has delivered quality work and stands behind it. We look forward to continuing to build and scale with them.
Mobile App Development Review from Dr Asa Frey
They worked on our app and continue to work on it to this day. We originally had a bad experience with various developers and ended up with a bunch of code and no functioning app - touchzen took the code and audited it and made it work and it work great now. Can't complain - still going to work with them and I would recommend to anyone who wants it done right.

Logo Design Review from Sandra Falque
Working with Lina and her team on the branding for Jules Stories was an absolute joy. Lina is warm, incredibly smart, and endlessly creative she truly got the heart of the project from day one. Her ability to listen, challenge, and adapt made the process feel collaborative and inspiring. I couldn't have asked for a better partner to bring Jules to life visually.
Branding Review from Noelle Acosta
Lina was a phenomenal designer to work with in our brand refresh. We were looking for something that felt bold yet comforting, trustworthy, and spoke to our mission to empower women to live better for longer through their hormone data. Lina was a terrific listener, applied our feedback quickly, communicated effectively throughout our project, and delivered options that we were very happy with. We always get compliments on how beautiful our branding is. Thank you, Lina and Onlychild Design!
Branding Review from Kaelynn Priest
I can't say enough good things about Only Child. They were truly partners throughout our entire branding project as they listened carefully to feedback and customized everything to our specific needs. From logo to brand voice, and brand strategy to web redesign - they did it all. The end product is better than I could have imagined and feels completely custom. The team was very professional and responsive to all of my questions and needs and a great all around partner.

Mobile App Development Review from DJA
We paid $117,000 across two contracts $68,000 for development and $49,000 for marketing to Naked Development for a consumer-ready iOS and Android app and a full marketing funnel.They delivered neither.We originally requested delivery by Black Friday, the most critical sales window for a parent-focused consumer app. Naked Development proposed December as an alternative. That deadline was their own suggestion. They missed it. We extended to January, then February, then April, then issued a formal written Notice of Breach before giving them one final deadline the following June. Every deadline was missed. We were over 300% over timeline.When we finally handed the codebase to a second development firm, the app would not build on either iOS or Android. We paid thousands just to get it running enough to assess the damage. The contracted team was never fully assembled. Tickets were put on hold without explanation. Subscription management, the most critical feature of the app, was broken for months and never fixed by Naked.The commercial video Naked produced was unusable by launch, as cultural references had gone stale during the delay.We are software engineers who have led teams of over 100. These were not minor issues. They were basic, objective engineering failures.When we raised breach concerns with founder John Driscoll, his response was "let's just let our lawyers talk about it."We are aware of more than a dozen other former clients who experienced similar issues. Do not recommend.
Mobile App Development Review from Mimi Bouchard
I hired Naked Development in 2022 to build a new version of my mobile app. I paid $203,000 upfront (spread over six months essentially everything I had saved from my first year in business), and was told the app would be completed in five months, by Fall 2022.Instead, the project turned into nearly a year of delays, almost done updates, and declining involvement from their team. My very small internal team and I ended up doing much of the project management and QA work ourselves because progress had stalled so severely. Despite constant reassurances, no functional product was ever delivered.By mid-2023, I hired multiple external development teams to assess the code. Every single one independently concluded that the app was non-functional, unstable, not scalable, and could not be launched. They warned it would crash immediately and required a complete rebuild. I then hired a neutral third-party auditor with zero connection to any agency and his report confirmed the same findings.After paying over $200K, I had nothing usable. When I factored in delays, internal time lost, expert audits, and the cost of rebuilding from scratch, the financial impact to my business exceeded $500,000.After multiple attempts to resolve the situation privately were unsuccessful, I filed a lawsuit, which is now a matter of public record (Superhuman Inc. v. Naked Development). The case is set for trial in early 2026. While litigation is never something a founder hopes for, at a certain point it became the only responsible path given the evidence and the financial damage.I strongly recommend extreme caution when considering this agency.
Mobile App Development Review from Jared Bossola
Working with people that are as creative as I am is awesome. Receiving top marks across the board, Naked. is an innovative team of artists. The client praises them for their outside-the-box thinking and ability to connect on a creative level. Throughout the project, they’ve demonstrated attentive service and communication.

Aaron Tsukahara's Review Sourced from Google
If there was a thai bistro that could heal the soul, this is the place.Beautiful food, cozy atmosphere, and wonderfully kind service to match. Everything is authentic, even right down to the vibes. You can feel confident that not only will you have an amazing meal, but you'll leave feeling simply — good. In the purest form of good that is.I will be back time and time and wish this place so much success. Cheers!Pictured: Summer Pineapple Fried Rice

Tobias Jakobi's Review Sourced from Google
This place is amazing. We go there basically every Friday. We never go anywhere else for Thai food in the Valley. I visited Thailand many times and this place is just as good.My favorite dish Pad Thai is delicious. Best appetizer is Crab Rangoon. The Larb, Crab fried rice and the curries are amazing too. Big shout out to the waitress. She‘s so attentive and just a lovely human being. Great job to the whole team!
