End to End Development of multiple mobile and IoT applications, including APK and SDKs for fitness devices and much more.

Software Development Review from Brandon Straza
Mobcoder has been amazing to work with. Their communication as well as their follow through is unlike any other team we've worked with to develop our platform. They were prompt, thought for themself, and brought us their own ideas as well. They worked side by side throughout the entire process. We look forward to a continued relationship moving forward.

Webhouse spent a lot of time upfront on the architecture, which made everything smoother down the line. Felt like they were thinking long-term, not just rushing to build.

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.
yogini patel's Review Sourced from Google
If you have another offer in hand then please don't choose Tatvasoft. More pollitics not employee friendly environment no festival celebration no facilities.Even not good colleagues.Management is also biased, they only listen to higher authorities like managers vp.

What a wonderful experience I received from Alex and the team to design my website. The communication has been a great experience, and I can't thank Alex and his team enough for always ensuring that his clients get the best outcome. I'm beyond grateful for designing a website that I had in mind and making come to what I had expected. The honesty I received from Alex has made me feel reassured and comfortable, I highly recommend his services and his team!
Daniel Reid's Review Sourced from Google
Honestly could not speak higher of Alex and his team at Shtudio. We have been working with them for 3 years, building a very complex and custom operational system for our rental business. The complexity of the project could not be understated but Alex and his team have always been able to engineer, develop and implement a solution that works in an incredibly fast, cost-effective and professional manner. We have also built numerous custom features for our website with speedy delivery and a very high quality of workI don't often leave reviews but I truly cannot recommend Alex and Shtudio, high enough!

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.
