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 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.

Claim to be experts in Magento 2 dev. Had a meeting booked with them for nearly a week. Called minutes prior to meeting saying they don't do any Magento development work whatsoever.Never a great look when a website developer can't even maintain the accuracy of their own website.

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) |
