5.0★
Web App Review from Michael Paskow
Dogtown media helped to develop a new cross-platform app and web portal for a sleep health study involving insomniacs for the National Sleep Foundation. The team was reliable and developed an excellent experience for end-users. It has been a great experience working with DTM. The team is reliable and communicative. They come up with creative solutions and are always available for any and all maintenance issues that arise. Although I am not well-versed in pricing for app development, I do feel that the pricing may have been a little too steep. That said, the work they have produced is excellent, and I'm very happy I got to work with the team at DTM.

We've really enjoyed the time spent with Dogtown and their support in our product initiatives. They have always been readily available to talk through design ideas, technical challenges, or feature improvements. Communication has always been solid, with a reliable stream of beta builds (delivered to our own devices to test out) and detailed patch notes. We look forward to working with Dogtown on more projects in the future!

eCommerce Development Review from André Schörnig
We have been working with Dinarys on our Shopify store for quite some time, and the experience has been great. From the very beginning, communication was clear, efficient, and reliable. The Dinarys team consistently delivered detailed proposals, stuck to agreed timelines, and offered well-structured solutions tailored to our needs. Their technical expertise is impressive, but what really sets them apart is their proactive attitude and genuine commitment to our project. Whenever we had questions or changes, they responded quickly and constructively. Its a true pleasure to work with a partner who feels like an extension of our own team. Highly recommended!

Web Development Review from Nissrine Kohen
Weve been working with Dinarys for quite some time now, mainly collaborating on Magento and Shopware development projects. Their developers consistently show solid technical expertise and a good understanding of our expectations and workflow.
Communication is generally smooth, and response times are quick. Whenever issues arise, the team is open to feedback and acts quickly to improve. Over time, weve seen a positive evolution in their proactiveness and alignment with our teams way of working.
They are flexible and collaborative, and its clear that they genuinely aim to build long-term partnerships. For the quality delivered, we feel the pricing is fair and transparent.
All in all, weve been satisfied with our cooperation and would recommend Dinarys as a development partner, especially for companies looking for experienced backend developers in Magento and Shopware.

I hired Fingent to create a web-based application for my website's visitors. They communicated their strategy effectively and adhered to our agreement. The pricing was notably low compared to other quotes I received. Ultimately, the project was a huge success, and they continued to provide support even after delivery.

As part of the voluntary administration group for the Inspire Foundation, I have worked closely with Julie and the Custom D team in the setting up of the Foundation's online application process. The team have been amazing to work with, finding solutions for the step by step processes as we worked our way through the implementation of the online system. Starting from scratch, their ability to grasp our needs quickly and clearly most certainly went a huge way towards creating a seamless process from what was a daunting prospect in the beginning. The open communication lines and prompt results greatly impressed me and I whole heartedly recommend Custom D as THE company to go to for all of your software, website and database design requirements.

Custom D, are world class software and database designers. they built a website with intranet and an online application system for our Foundation which allows the processing of hundreds of applications for grants whch can be viewed and assessed in real time by our selction panel. The system was designed from scratch, modified and developed during the development process and then enhanced with user experience feedback.
it worked first time, it is user friendly. Custom D had staff changes and never dropped the ball in delivering a brilliant piece of software for us that all our team use and appreciate.

Very poor customer service. They are extremely slow in replying and are not even bothered to send you a quote. They treat you like they do not care at all. Unfortunately in Switzerland you often come across this unfriendly business attitude. I would not recommend them to anyone!
The below response is inaccurate. I have never sent them my budget, I have just told them about another quote I got. Their attitude is really not business friendly.

Eric Wexler's Review Sourced from Google
Working with Big Fish App Development was a fantastic experience. Sara and her team were professional, helpful, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with throughout the entire project. Building an app or software can be a stressful undertaking but Sara really takes an organized approach and explains the process step by step. Her deep knowledge and expertise really showed, and she consistently met deadlines while being flexible enough to work at whatever pace was needed.
Big Fish was thorough, and always one step ahead — often thinking of things I hadn’t even considered, which made a huge difference in the App. Her input during the development process was invaluable.
I highly recommend Big Fish to anyone looking for a skilled and dependable app developer. If you are coming into this with little AppDev knowledge, just know that Big Fish is fair and trustworthy. I couldn’t have asked for a better team in bringing my app and ideas to life!
