Web Development Review from Lathan Ashton
RichestSoft was tasked with taking our existing templates, upgrading them to the latest version of our CMS, and deploying them to a staging environment. They also updated the designs for all subsections of the site. The site is fairly generic, consisting of static pages with links from the homepage to product descriptions, case studies, and more. Our team can easily log into the CMS and update case studies without needing a web developer, which has been a huge advantage. Our primary concern was the seamless conversion of our old templates, and RichestSoft handled this flawlessly. They even suggested ideas like making the site multilingual, though we only needed an English version, so it wasn’t necessary in our case.
Web Development Review from Robbie Hart
The website now has a more modern and appealing feel, and we've noticed an increase in the number of visitors since working with RichestSoft. They effectively leverage their technologies, and their communication and timeliness have been satisfactory throughout the project. Our business is centered around land development and industrial projects, supported by a team of IT professionals that manage the technology driving our operations. Our mission is to provide quality and satisfaction by utilizing our knowledge, experience, and ambition to meet and exceed our clients' expectations.
Web Development Review from James Shehan
RichestSoft consistently delivered on a complex and demanding project, handling all tasks with efficiency. Whenever any bugs or issues surfaced on the site, they promptly resolved them. While there have been occasional communication challenges, none of these have affected the high-quality and cost-effective service they provide.

Simon Vella's Review Sourced from Google
What stood out with WebAlive was the genuine investment their team made in understanding our product. We're building something ambitious in the mining data space and they got it — not just the technical side, but what we were trying to achieve commercially. That made a real difference to the quality of what they built for us.
Gary Smith's Review Sourced from Google
We are one of Australia's largest media networks and have worked with and used the services of WebAlive for nearly 20 years. Over that time, again and again, WebAlive has shown a remarkable ability to understand our specific needs, and tailor a solution effectively and promptly. Their work for us has, on two separate occasions, been the focal point of the Australian Government's AusIndustry registration for Research & development.We have also introduced WebAlive to many of our clients and happily recommend their services to the communities we work with.

Custom software development companies in Australia offer a broad range of services to help businesses streamline operations and amplify product value. Here are some of the most common offerings they provide:
While these standard services are prevalent, Australia’s diverse business market drives demand for other specialized solutions, such as AI development, blockchain solutions, and AR/VR applications.
While there is no exact data on the number of software development companies in Australia, the overall tech workforce has reached 935,000 employees in 2023, emphasizing the vastness of the industry. Our DesignRush listing features over 7,600 custom development firms, 280+ of which are based or have offices in Australia.
Here’s a breakdown of our featured agencies by company size:

| Mid-sized (50-249 employees) | 102 |
| Large (250+ employees) | 38 |
| Enterprise (1000+ employees) | 13 |
The dominance of smaller agencies can be attributed to the lower overhead costs and increased flexibility these firms offer. Mid-sized agencies, while fewer, handle larger projects that require more resources and coordination, making them an optimal choice between the smaller firms with limited capacities and larger agencies with higher service rates.
Australia software development firms charge between AUD 40,000 and 450,000+, depending on the project’s complexity, size, list of features, developer expertise, and timeline.
