      Great Place to Grow and Learn – 6 Wonderful Years at Tatvasoft! I had the opportunity to work at Tatvasoft as a QA for 6 years, and it was truly a rewarding and enriching experience. Throughout my time there, I learned so much – not only in terms of technical skills but also in understanding best practices, teamwork, and professionalism. I'm grateful for the opportunities and support I received during my time at Tatvasoft. It's a great place for anyone looking to build a strong foundation in the IT industry.

      Raju Patel's Review Sourced from Google

      After working here for 9 years, I finally had to leave because of the management style of my reporting manager. Many of my team members had raised complaints multiple times, but no one in HR or higher management cared to listen. There is no opportunity to learn new things or grow in your career. Instead of skill development, the reporting manager forces employees to do repetitive tasks even during free time, which feels like a complete waste of potential. The reporting manager is also very biased - very supportive towards female employees but extremely strict with male employees, applying rules like in a school. Despite being in Tatvasoft for more than 15 years, he still goes for lunch alone - which clearly shows how disconnected he is from his own team. Sadly, instead of valuing long-term employees, the company culture pushes people to resign. Definitely not recommended for anyone looking for growth and a fair, employee-friendly workplace.

      Parth Sathvara's Review Sourced from Google

      If you are considering joining this company to build your career, I strongly recommend you pause and gather accurate information first, as it could save you from making a decision that might put your career at serious risk. Despite having some promising projects, the company lacks experienced employees in the relevant technologies and is actively seeking developers who can work on these complex projects for unreasonably low salaries. There is absolutely no work-life balance, and the working hours are extremely rigid. Salaries are frequently delayed, and the company does not maintain any emergency financial support for employees. Moreover, there is a complete absence of effective management or structured business operations. Unrealistic expectations are placed on employees, including the demand to complete long-term projects within impractically short deadlines. Overall, these issues raise significant concerns about the company's professionalism, sustainability, and respect for employee well-being.

      Web Development Review from Chris Bailey

      I engaged their web-development team to rebuild and modernize our company's manufacturing website, and the experience has been exceptional. From the outset, communication was clear and responsive: they took time to understand our industry-specific compliance needs and translated them into a site structure that is clean, secure, and easy to navigate. Delivery was on schedule, and the final result exceeded expectations pages load quickly, the design feels professional and trustworthy, and the content layout supports clarity for both clients and regulators. In addition, the team proactively suggested helpful enhancements: mobile optimization, streamlined navigation, and improved documentation pages all of which have already resulted in noticeably increased user engagement and lower bounce rates. They handled feedback promptly and implemented corrections without fuss, making the collaboration smooth and efficient. Overall, this project added significant value to our online presence, giving us a polished, modern website that accurately reflects our manufacturing standards and commitment to quality. I would gladly work with them again and recommend their services to anyone seeking reliable web development for regulated-industry clients.

      Ryan Geldermann's Review Sourced from Google

      My experience with Aveo Software was nothing short of outstanding. As the owner of a wedding video editing outsourcing company, I needed a robust and user-friendly website along with a specialized client portal. Aveo Software delivered precisely what I was looking for. The client portal they developed is intuitive and streamlined, allowing our users to effortlessly submit their editing preferences, order and track projects, and sign up for our subscription service. JC and KG were both very communicative throughout the process and delivered all milestones on time. Last but not least, the cost was reasonable, offering great value for the high-quality service I received. I wholeheartedly recommend Aveo Software to any business looking for top-tier web development services. Their commitment to excellence, paired with their technical expertise, makes them a gem in the industry.

      We retained the services of Aveo to create a mobile APP which provides users with fishing conditions for trout streams in central and southern Alberta in January of 2023. The Aveo team completed the APP within a tight timeline which was driven by the need to launch the APP in the spring ahead of the fishing season. The team worked hard to get the work completed and provided a professional product that exceeded my expectations.

      We first started using Aveosoft to help with simple web development tasks for our gym. They were great to work with from the beginning, and over the years we've come to rely on them more heavily. They've since built us a custom software platform and smartphone app. Great communication, honest pricing and lovely people to deal with. I couldn't recommend them more.

      Ange Monitto's Review Sourced from Google

      Unfortunately, my experience with JAF Digital didn’t meet expectations. As a small business owner in the wellness space, I was looking for a more strategic, hands-on partnership, to assit me with Meta advertising — one where the team would take initiative to monitor and optimize ad performance, offer guidance, and keep me updated without me needing to constantly follow up. Instead, I found myself chasing updates and struggling to get clarity on what was working. There were also significant missteps that directly impacted my business. The ad budget was set to $120/day instead of the agreed $50/day, which cost me an extra $490 with ROAS, and I didn’t feel proper accountability was taken for the mistake. After paying, there was also a 10-day delay before any work began, and I only found out the reason (a missing receipt) after following up multiple times. More concerning, my ad account performance actually went backwards. My existing ads — which had been performing — were all turned off and replaced with new ones that underperformed. I also later discovered ads were being targeted in the Philippines, even though my business is based in Melbourne, Australia. Since moving to a new ad agency, they’ve also identified multiple errors in my ad account setup, including spelling mistakes and structural issues that should have been caught earlier. This only confirmed that the attention to detail and strategy just weren’t there. There were some positives. The spreadsheet created for tracking was a good system in theory and Gerly, my project manager, was very lovely and kind to work with. But without proper processes to implement and act on that system, it felt pointless. Overall, while the communication with Gerly personally was kind, the execution and quality of work fell short. After one month, it was clear this wasn’t aligned with the level of service I was seeking. I hope this review helps other business owners make an informed decision.

      My company has been utilizing the services of NFD for many years, and I'm happy to say we have made the right decision! All experiences with the team have been professional, courteous, timely, and especially informational. They take the time to explain the 'how's' and 'why's' and do not assume everyone has the same IT brain - which I personally appreciate. They are a breath of fresh air and always go above and beyond for each one of my team members. I highly recommend them. Keep up the great work!

Sources

DesignRush sustains a directory of over 40,000 agencies categorized by service category, location, expertise, and reviews. We build our database in two ways:

  • Our dedicated team of agency experts actively searches the web for top-performing companies. We then pull information from their websites, online presence, and client testimonials to verify their status and qualifications prior to listing.
  • The agencies listed get notified of their profiles on the website and they can choose to claim it or not, which suggests their availability for more collaborations.

Agencies can also reach out to DesignRush and must go through the verification process prior to being listed.

Can Canada IT support companies scale their services as my business grows?

Yes, established Canada IT support companies can scale with your business growth. Mature providers offer flexible SLAs, allowing you to adjust service tiers, response times, and team capacity without disrupting operations.  

They can also support higher traffic and storage demands, expand monitoring coverage, and provide specialized expertise (e.g., cybersecurity, AI development) as needed, ensuring your IT environment keeps pace with your business needs. 

Should I hire a local IT services company in Canada or outsource remotely?

It depends on your requirements. Choose IT services companies in Canada for tighter service turnarounds and more secure pipelines. They also offer on-premise support and time zone alignment, which are crucial for emergency cases. Additionally, they can provide bilingual (French/English) end-user support, increasing customer satisfaction. 

On the other hand, outsourced IT support companies may be more affordable, but they require strong SLAs, security protocols, and data governance. Moreover, they may not be familiar with local regulations, like PIPEDA and PHIPA.
