Designli Reviews & Testimonials

Mobile App Development Review from John Laporte
Designli helped us define the requirements, features, and user experience for an app for our motorcycle organization. They produced technical documentation and a clickable prototype covering navigation, member tools, and safety features. They were responsive, delivered on time every time, and turned our broad concepts into something people could actually click through. The prototype got our stakeholders aligned, earned internal approval, and set us up for engineering, and working out design questions early should save us rework later.

Mobile App Development Review from Brandi Heffner
Designli built our SaaS product from scratch, using AI to speed up development, with AWS and Cloudflare in the stack, and they also handle our hosting and maintenance. We had a working MVP in just 30 days and have kept adding features since. In the first 60 days they went beyond what we expected, largely because they took the time to really learn our business and our market. Coordination through Basecamp and Google Meet has kept everything organized.

Mobile App Development Review from Thomas Simmons
Designli took over app development and marketing for our driving school, with the goal of building a product we could eventually offer to other schools. Within two and a half months, the app was up and running in our own school. Their project management is excellent, and they push back constructively, thinking through what we actually need instead of building every request as-is.

Chop Dawg Reviews & Testimonials

Web Development Review from Jimmy Caldwell
Chop Dawg was the strongest development team I’ve worked with in 18 years of software implementation. They took our complex AI-powered senior placement platform and turned it into a functional marketplace with dashboards, business rules, CRM integration, and an AI assistant. The team listened, adapted, communicated often, and treated our vision with real care. The handoff had a few gaps, but overall, they delivered exceptional work.

Design Services Review from Nathan May
Chop Dawg delivered wireframes, high-fidelity screens, a logo, and Figma files while keeping each week’s work clear. They felt like part of our team, brought fresh ideas, and pushed back when needed. The experience was strong overall, though a more detailed final review would have been helpful.

Web Design Review from Anonymous
Chop Dawg turned our early idea for a visual polling and decision-making platform into a prototype we could confidently share with others. It made the product much easier to explain, gave us something real to test with users, and supported more productive investor conversations. The work also helped our team get aligned on the product direction, development scope, and MVP roadmap. Their team was responsive, organized, and easy to work with throughout the process.

Monica's Review Sourced from Google
Amazing and talented people. I’ve worked for both client and agency side and can can say their partnership is amazing. They truly care about ongoing operations and not just ending it at a project level. Highly recommend! Message me if you want specifics.
John Andesilich's Review Sourced from Google
I own a marketing firm in Troy MO and I recently met with Calvin at Sketch Development Services to discuss a software development project I have been thinking about pursuing. He was very nice, easy to speak to and even though his field is a bit out of my knowledge base, he was able to explain things in a way that made perfect sense. I look forward to working with him and his team in the future and recommend anyone looking for a software or app development company to give them a try.

TRIARE Reviews & Testimonials

Web Development Review from Julia Arhangelskaya
Collaborating with TRIARE company for the design and development of our online store was an exceptionally positive experience. Their streamlined processes and efficient project management ensured that deadlines were consistently met, and the project progressed smoothly. Communication was excellent throughout, with their team readily available to address any questions or concerns. They not only revamped our website's design but also developed it with precision and creativity. Their attention to detail and proactive approach to problem-solving were evident at every stage of the project. I definitely can recommend TRIARE!

Mobile App Development Review from Jonathan Fruitman
We thought that their proposed milestones were ambitious. I remember being pleasantly surprised after the first demo. Perhaps based on previous experience, my expectations were too low, but the team really did deliver on a consistent basis.

Mobile App Development Review from Torsten Caspar
The app functions smoothly, with bugs or issues promptly addressed by TRIARE. With over 100,000 downloads, Apple has invited MindZip to participate in selected workshops. Overall, Triare met MindZip's expectations. (Verified via email)
