      Web Development Review from Rostislav (Rusty) Klibaner

      We can't possibly recommend Use All Five enough! Our office came to the Use All Five team wishing to redesign and overhaul our website, which greatly needed functional and structural upgrades. From the get-go, Kara, Michelle, Levi, and their whole team were kind, supportive, and communicative with all of our questions and concerns. Moreover, they were endlessly inventive with their ideas, recommendations, and overall approach (not to mention always willing to be flexible and work within our budget). They took in all of our feedback and needs, and then masterfully incorporated our requests into a product that went beyond our greatest expectations. The resulting website was nothing short of amazing: featuring dynamic, wonderful colors, ease of navigation, and accessibility for all users. We're so lucky to have worked with Use All Five, and cannot wait to collaborate with them again in the future!

      Digital Services Review from Kerrie Mitchell

      We worked with Use All Five on the redesign of our flagship site. It was an incredibly complex project and website with a large number of stakeholders, but UA5 managed it all with ease, grace, organization, and good humor. The site they created for us was gorgeous, and we continue to work with them on ongoing maintenance. I was incredibly thankful to have them as partner on this undertaking and really couldn't have imagined doing it without them. Would highly recommend their services.

      Our experience with Use All Five on our e-commerce project was outstanding from start to finish. They built us a custom Shopify-based solution that perfectly captured our brand aesthetic while delivering powerful functionality. The team's technical expertise and creative vision resulted in a website that not only looks incredible but also drives conversions. Since launch, we've seen a substantial boost in online sales and received numerous compliments from customers about the user experience. Use All Five proved to be reliable, innovative, and genuinely invested in our success. I wouldn't hesitate to work with them again.

    For over 20 years, we've built complex digital products. We've learned that most problems don't start in code. They start before teams align on direction, before assumptions surface, before anyone knows what questions to ask...

      Web Development Review from Kent Fenwick

      Certainly! Here's the revised review with the project timeline adjusted to 2017:We had the pleasure of working with Xfive back in 2017 on a project to build a microsite for a new product launch, and we couldn't have been happier with the results. Xfive demonstrated exceptional expertise and professionalism throughout the entire process.From the outset, their team understood our vision and requirements perfectly. They built a fantastic microsite that not only met but exceeded our expectations. The design was sleek, user-friendly, and tailored to our brand's identity. Their technical skills were evident in the smooth functionality and responsiveness of the site.We highly recommend Xfive to anyone looking for top-notch web development services. Their team's dedication, skill, and professionalism are truly commendable. We look forward to working with them again on future projects.

Frequently Asked Questions About App Development Companies

What services do app development companies typically offer?

App development companies usually handle strategy, UI/UX design, development, testing, launch, and ongoing maintenance. Some also provide product research and app store optimization.

How much does it cost to hire an app development company?

App development agencies typically charge between $30,000 and $500,000+, depending on the scope and complexity of the project.

Typical custom app costs by scope include:

  • Simple app: $10,000 to $35,000
  • Medium-complexity app: $35,000 to $150,000
  • Complex app: $150,000 to $300,000+

How long does it take to develop a mobile app?

Most apps take around 3 to 7 months to develop, though the timeline depends on complexity, features, technology, and the development team. Changes in scope, integrations, and testing requirements can also extend the timeline.

  • Simple apps: a few weeks to 3 months
  • Medium-complexity apps: 3 to 7 months
  • Complex apps: 7 to 12+ months 

How do I choose the right app development company?

Look at relevant experience, past projects, technical expertise, communication, and post-launch support. The company should also understand your business goals and target users.

What should I look for in an app development company’s portfolio?

Check whether they have built apps similar to yours and review the usability, design quality, and functionality of their work. Pay attention to projects in your industry or with comparable technical requirements.

What track record should I look for in an app development company?

Ask for launch counts, instead of project counts. An app development company that has shipped dozens of live apps has already solved App Store review, retention, and post-launch iteration. Designli, for example, lists more than 200 product launches and traces its process back to Applits, an app studio its founders ran before the agency existed.

What are the top mobile app development companies in 2026?
