Essential Designs Reviews & Testimonials

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.

Web Development Review from Kendall MacNabb
We needed to have a custom guest communication platform built, due to our custom workflows at the business, connecting our team members with text, images, buildings and daily project tasks. Essential Designs was able to hit the exact deadline we had, to the day, and completed on budget. We continue to add on features, it's a good relationship.

Mobile App Development Review from Emilie H
The Essential Designs team's proactive approach to acknowledging their strengths and weaknesses not only enhances their performance but also fosters a culture of continuous improvement. Their fearlessness in tackling challenges is matched by their ability to successfully fulfill even the most demanding requirements. Beyond mere competence, the team's innovative spirit and enduring passion make them valuable and committed long-term collaborators. Their dedication to excellence sets them apart, ensuring a dynamic and mutually beneficial partnership.

Solveit Reviews & Testimonials

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.

Wearables Review from Issac John
A global OTT provider - Discovery+ earlier this year, had a breakthrough launch in a cluttered OTT market like India with a differentiated product targeted at lifelong learners and passionate communities. The team at Robosoft played a significant role in building this multi-platform experience spanning iOS, Android, Web and Fire TVs. Their team comprises an extremely dedicated bunch of folks with a keen problem solving approach and under the stellar leadership of Ravi Teja, Jay Shah, Srinidhi Rao and Pooja Bal, they have been the kind of dependable partners that a lot of brands would be fortunate to have. I wish them and their team the best for their future.

Mobile App Development Review from Deepak Porayath
Our experience working with Robosoft has been quite good in terms of product and outcomes. With our CapitaStar@Work app for India business, the end goal was to bring our customers and their employees onto a digital platform. The objective was to integrate our solutions such as visitor, parking, and ticketing system management into a single app. CapitaStar@Work caters to our requirements and surely will make life simpler for our users. I would recommend Robosoft to others because it is a good organization to implement technological interventions in any traditional manufacturing, real estate, or brick-and-mortar industry.

When you're launching a nonprofit from scratch, every resource matters and Tom stepped in with extraordinary generosity. He brought his team in to help build the Survive Out Loud website, and the result is something were genuinely proud of.Tom and his team didn't just build a site. They listened carefully, asked thoughtful questions, and translated our vision into something clean, professional, and aligned with our mission.
