Software Development Review from Michael S.
We selected Azumo to develop our software. We transitioned from another development company, so Azumo was initially responsible for migrating our existing code and environments. We are currently still working with Azumo as our nearshore software development team on adding new items to our software.

Managing Director at NLB Lease&GO doo

Software Development Review from Claus-Peter Mueller
We have engaged Infinum to develop an app that would digitalise our leasing process. From creating the initial offer through the necessary financing application and client identification to the final signature – all the steps required to successfully lease a vehicle or other object can be performed in-app, freeing the users of friction and having to deal with tedious paperwork.
The app itself in the background has 30+ integrations, while keeping a seamless and quick to follow process on the front for our users. That application is in production and Infinum is responsible for maintaining it and further improving. After the initial development, we have additionally expanded our scope from vehicles to other equipment. They have also developed a Leasing widget, product which enables quick financing model while purchasing a vehicle online on car seller marketplace pages.
At this moment, we are still in partnership with Infinum, and their engagement is mainly focused on localising the app to other countries and supporting us in our further business expansion. The work performed was done in Ruby on Rails and React technology, with support of other services.

Web Design Review from Patrice Archer
They developed a SaaS web platform with smart scheduling and automation tools for us at and built the platform's front- and backend and integrated a custom analytics dashboard and calendar integrations. But to be honest what impressed us most was how deeply they engaged with our vision. They didn't just write code they challenged assumptions, proposed better workflows, and contributed as if they were part of our internal product team. Their ability to think strategically and focus on user experience made them feel more like tech partners than a typical outsourced vendor.

Igor Caleta-Car's Review Sourced from Google
I worked at Decode for about a year, and during that time I had the chance to meet many wonderful colleagues who helped me grow professionally and learn new skills. Because of the nature of my role, I also had the chance to collaborate with clients across Europe, the USA, and the Middle East, and even visit some of them in person.
The team I worked with was everything you could hope for - driven, proactive, and always willing to jump in and help. The development teams I was part of were well-balanced in both skills and personalities, led by highly experienced engineers who lead by example.
Beyond the projects themselves, the company culture stands out. People are friendly, and the leadership is focused on sustainable growth while supporting employees development. Decode isn’t afraid to promote talent and encourage people to step outside their comfort zones in order to grow.
The office is also in one of the best business neighborhoods in Croatia, with plenty of variety for employees nearby.
Overall, I highly recommend Decode as a great place to work!

Working with DECODE has been a great experience so far! Their team is skilled, flexible, and always open to collaboration, which makes the process smooth and enjoyable. Their modern design approach aligns well with our vision, and they show a real commitment to delivering a strong final product.
What we particularly appreciate is their willingness to engage and adapt as the project evolves. While some aspects require additional clarification along the way, they are always receptive to feedback and ready to adjust accordingly. The overall working atmosphere is positive and professional, making them a great partner to work with. Looking forward to the second half of our project!

denny stearns's Review Sourced from Google
I bought the Carmela the other day. It is smoky, with burnt Carmel, marshmallow taste and smell. This is not my type of whiskey. I like smoke but there was something that disagreed with me. So this line is not my cup of... whiskey. Looking forward to trying their Bourbon and will update my tasting experience. The R6 distillery reached out to me which shows they care about their product. That goes far with me.
Update... I have now tasted the R6 Distillery Bourbon Whiskey. Very pleasant to the nose with light vanilla. Taste is smooth and not sharp. The taste is in my wheelhouse of Bourbons. Sweet, smooth vanilla, light Carmel. I hear you can get a bottle at COSTCO and i saw one on the shelf at the local convenience store in Gundo. I would recommend it.

Victor Alpha's Review Sourced from Google
Great speakeasy, fine spirits, nice atmosphere. Drawback is licensing restrictions - only one cocktail or 1.5 oz total in spirits. Beers are unlimited. Another flaw is when a private event is scheduled, no notice is posted on the website, meaning if you’re traveling here from afar, you will have to travel right back spiritless and hopless.
Edit: When I checked the website I did not see the notice about the private event. If you say it was posted, then it was my fault for not being thorough. Also, the state did not want your missing stars and I have too many myself. They are all yours. And the gin was delicious. Cheers!

Ok, we had year lasting project and I’d like to admit the confidence and stress resistance of the team, in each situation they didn’t panic but started searching the reason of the error, and finally eliminated it.
Besides, among all, team has strong work ethics and sets an example with his perfect attendance. Of course, the attendance of this team members also contributes to the productivity levels and the project results. Yes, that was that impressed me most… I can say it for sure having in past bad experience with the Indian programmers)))

What is an IoT (Internet of Things) development company?
An IoT development company is a specialized company that provides custom solutions, devices, applications, and software underlined by IoT technology.
This technology enables businesses to control their connected devices remotely while improving their security, efficiency, and productivity through better monitoring and automation.
How does an IoT agency help businesses build connected products?
An IoT agency helps businesses build connected products by guiding them through the entire development process, from strategy and design to hardware selection, IoT software development, data integration, and security implementation.
It builds IoT systems, software, and hardware to help businesses solve digital challenges and explore new revenue streams. IoT solution providers also integrate these systems into existing IT environments and provide continuous maintenance and support to businesses.
Which industries benefit the most from IoT development services?
Manufacturing, healthcare, agriculture, retail, energy, and transportation industries benefit the most from IoT development services. They use IoT for predictive maintenance, real-time monitoring, process automation, and enhancing customer experiences.
Smart cities, telecom, and financial services also take advantage of IoT for connected infrastructure, network management, and security. Overall, sectors with asset-heavy operations or high data demands benefit the most through improved efficiency, cost savings, and better service delivery.
What are the top-rated IoT development companies on DesignRush in 2025?
Top-rated IoT development companies on DesignRush in 2025 are the following:
What’s the cost range for IoT development in 2025?
IoT development companies charge $5,500 on average for IoT prototyping. A minimum viable product (MVP) can cost between $30,000 and $50,000, with a finished project running up to millions of dollars.
The significant variation in pricing stems from the fact that rates are predominantly influenced by the project's complexity, scale, and timeline.
How quickly can an IoT development company deliver a prototype or solution?
An IoT development company can typically deliver a prototype in 4-12 weeks, depending on complexity, available hardware, and required integrations. Simple proof-of-concepts (like basic sensor-to-app connectivity) may be ready in a month.
A full production-ready solution often takes 3-9 months, depending on custom hardware design, security requirements, regulatory compliance, and scaling needs.
What should you look for when selecting an IoT development partner?
When selecting an IoT development partner, look for the following:
Proven IoT experience
Solid hardware and software integration knowledge
Familiarity with security and compliance
Expertise in cloud and scalability
Cross-industry insights
What warning signs indicate that a potential IoT development company may not be the right fit?
A potential IoT development company may not be the best fit if it shows some of the following warning signs:
Absence of case studies
Outdated tools and technologies
Lack of robust security protocols
Frequent reports of downtime, hacks, and compliance issues
Vendor lock-ins
Poor collaboration skills
High employee turnover rate
What key questions should you ask before hiring an IoT development company?
Before hiring an IoT development company, ask the following questions:
Have you worked with similar companies, industries, or projects before?
Can you walk me through your IoT development process?
What technologies, programming languages, and platforms do you use to build an IoT system?
What are your systems for securing data collected on IoT devices? How do you ensure legal and ethical compliance?
What security protocols do you have to safeguard against security breaches and potential cyber-attacks?
How much do your services cost? Do you charge per hour, per month, per result, or a flat fee?
What is my estimated project timeline?
How will you integrate the IoT solution with my current tech stack?
How does IoT development differ from standard software or embedded systems projects?
IoT development integrates hardware, connectivity, and cloud systems, requiring expertise in sensors, communication protocols, and real-time data handling. Traditional software focuses mainly on apps or servers without managing physical devices.
Unlike embedded systems, IoT extends beyond standalone device logic by enabling internet connectivity, remote updates, and large-scale data analytics. It emphasizes scalability and security, while embedded projects usually focus on localized, device-specific functionality.
What platforms and frameworks do top IoT agencies use?
IoT agencies use the following platforms and frameworks:
Cloud IoT platforms: AWS IoT, Azure IoT, Google Cloud IoT, IBM Watson IoT, Oracle IoT Cloud
Industrial/IIoT platforms: Siemens MindSphere, ThingWorx, Cumulocity IoT, Arm Pelion
Embedded firmware and RTOS: Mongoose OS, Apache Mynewt, RT-Thread
Data and messaging tools: Apache IoTDB, Apache Kafka
Prototyping and visual tools: Node-RED, Arduino, PlatformIO, ThingSpeak
How legitimate is the FAQs?
Our goal is to equip businesses and agencies with practical and accurate information, which is why we partnered with Chike Agbai, founder and CEO of Azumo, a leading IoT company. He provided his technical expertise on the qualities to look for when selecting a development partner.Â
Chike Agbai spent nearly two decades as an investment banker on Wall Street, where he advised leading software companies such as Oracle, Salesforce, and Dell on high-stake transactions, before founding Azumo in 2016.
