Mobile App Development Review from Vasko Markovski
Our company hired them to create an app designed to help expatriates find housing. A project manager and two developers from Saigon Technology worked closely with our team for the app's development. At the start, their team and ours gathered the information needed for the project and planned out how to build the product. They then designed the app's interface and added features. In the end, we launched the app successfully, and our client was satisfied with it.

Mobile App Development Review from Sarah Crowther
Enterprise Monkey has been an amazing team, and the support we've received from them has been outstanding. They're all invested in our success. Working with external teams can always be tricky. However, Enterprise Monkey's work culture and resource onboarding processes are excellent. We're in Virginia Beach, and they're in India. Still, they're always available. I've never experienced a long response time despite the time difference, which is commendable.We've worked with other service providers on other mobile apps that aren't under my supervision. Some of the things that make Enterprise Monkey stand out are their dependability and expertise. Enterprise Monkey delivers what they promise, indicating excellent consistency.We started working together on one project, and our engagement has led to other projects. One of these projects has been the web development one, which has been very big. Given that our organization has seen their expertise, we're now considering Enterprise Monkey for other projects.Overall, they've been very encouraging, and we've learned a lot from them. I'm sure that they've also learned from us; it's a mutual relationship.
Mobile App Development Review from Phillip Green
After partnering with Enterprise Monkey, the client booked 462 Audience, allowing the company to accrue revenue. The team was highly knowledgeable about programming. Further, they demonstrated excellent communication through virtual meetings and emails. The quality of their codes was commendable.
Mobile App Development Review from Kara Sullivan
We had weekly check-ins since the Enterprise Monkey team worked in Weekly Scrum Sprints. Communication was easy and straightforward. If questions arose from their team for ours those were quickly handled via messaging appAnd also They structured the entire project very well and easy for everybody to understand. It was easy to tell how far along they were and where hurdles or "scrum cliffs" would arise. The communication with the project lead, programmers, q&a, and the Partnerships Development Manager was very good.

Mobile App Development Review from Chelsea Husemann
In the first week of the launch, our internal team was happy with the app. Our user metrics and revenue are both going up and to the right, which is an early indicator of success. Weve only been up for about a week and a half, so its also still a little early to tell.But, the app is more convenient. Users can use it to play games to get more entries into the sweepstakes. Retention numbers are solid, the artwork is fun, and everything is suitable for our demographic. Wed been struggling with Google penalties at the time, and my consultant helping me with the issue said he was impressed that we made as much financial headway with the app as we had.They were steady, consistent workhorses, setting a nice pace for the effort. We had a dedicated team, and the resource management was great. Their price point wasnt the most or least expensiveit was fair.
Mobile App Development Review from Andre Budinarta
The measurable outcomes from the project were highly impressive and demonstrated significant progress and success. Our website traffic increased by 50% within the first three months of launching the revamped site, leading to a noticeable boost in lead generation and inquiries. The mobile app received positive feedback from our clients, who appreciated the intuitive user interface and quick property search functionality.What impressed me most about EB Pearls was their ability to understand our specific needs and translate them into a polished and functional digital solution. They took the time to conduct thorough research on our target audience and industry, resulting in a website and mobile app that perfectly aligned with our brand identity. Their attention to detail, creative problem-solving, and commitment to delivering high-quality work were truly exceptional.

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.

Top custom software development companies in Australia can help businesses create tailored web and mobile applications to automate operations, improve efficiency, and stand out in their target markets.
More specifically, these companies can deliver:
To further highlight the benefits Australia software development firms can deliver, our researchers have highlighted the following case study:
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:
| Agency size | Number of agencies |
| Small (Under 49 employees) | 133 |
| 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.
Some companies charge depending on the software development lifecycle (SDLC) phase, specifically:
| Development phase | Cost |
| Planning (Concept and feasibility analysis) | AUD 5,000-20,000 |
| Design (UI/UX design) | AUD 10,000-50,000 |
| Development (Frontend and backend) | AUD 50,000-300,000 |
| Testing | AUD 5,000- 30,000 |
| Deployment and maintenance | AUD 10,000-100,000 (annually) |
On DesignRush, the top custom software development companies in Australia charge an average rate of $44 per hour. 6.3% of the companies accept projects under $1,000, offering cost-effective solutions for startups and small businesses with limited budgets. On the other hand, 4.2% of the agencies require a $50,000+ minimum budget, focusing on large-scale projects that require advanced technologies and extensive customizations.
