Web Development Review from Philip Wilson
ELEK+RIK team provided a streamlined process that was both simple and enjoyable. They kept to the budget and communicated well throughout the project. ELEK+RIK comes highly recommended and we would work with ELEK+RIK again if given the opportunity.
Mobile App Development Review from George McKerrow
ELEK+RIK has worked on improving our React Native mobile app. We had the skeleton of an app, but they were able to do an end-to-end re-design of each of the main pages. Since then, they`ve successfully implemented around ~20 different features on our mobile app. We share a spec and design, they provide an estimate and occasionally some design options, then when completed create a PR on GitHub. Their code is well-organized, easy to follow, and rarely do we have to go back-and-forth about bugs. They are also excellent communicators - carefully following threads on Slack, effectively communicating design and engineering tradeoffs, and even producing a 10m Loom video walking through a diagram. Their communication is top-notch. They are super easy to work with even though we are on very different time zones. And, I am impressed at the speed and execution of their development.
Web Development Review from John Riley
ELEK+RIK was tasked with creating a website for our company from scratch. They were professional, communicative, and dedicated to delivering an exceptional website that perfectly captured the essence of our company while exceeding our expectations. They are a talented, reliable, and customer-focused web design and development company that I would highly recommend to anyone.

Web Development Review from Anita Krol
We entrusted DevsData with developing a new website for our company. I was impressed by how quickly their team completed the project. They gave the site a new, modern style with appealing layouts and they connected marketing tools for measuring user behavior, which led to a noticeable boost in our company's revenue. What I'm most delighted with is that we received regular updates on every stage of the process. DevsData did a marvelous job and helped us get our business off the ground quickly.
IT Outsourcing Review from Matt Lenicki
Webcrafters recommends DevsData Tech Talent for its exceptional services. Seeking a firm experienced in technical recruitment, the client discovered DevsData and worked with it after evaluating its offerings. The agency provided Webcrafters with three PHP developers who showcased technical expertise, effective communication, and valuable business insights. (Verified via email)
IT Staffing Review from Adam Zaczek
I contacted DevsData to recruit two Node developers for our startup (CodeAlly). We started from creating detailed job descriptions for the desired role, together with DevsData, and agreed on the compensation ranges. Then every week, we had an update call with a couple of new developers that were recommended our way. They did an outstanding job. I signed 2 developers. Everything went smoothly as I had hoped. I will definitely work with them again for my future tech recruiting needs.

Working with them is such a close-knit and communicative process. We're the type of client that prefers to be very involved at each step, and they make it very easy to follow along. They have a Monday board where we can see our progress on the full project dashboard. We never feel like we dont know whats going on.Its great to have a project manager who brings all the pieces together so that we can see the bigger picture. They email, text, and conduct weekly calls to keep us up-to-date. We also had the chance to work and meet with them in-person.

Python Django Review from Andrew Stetsenko
We partnered with Flyaps to build the GlossaryTech Chrome Extension from scratch, including the backend for tech terminology analysis. The goal was to help recruiters, sales professionals, and other non-technical specialists in IT quickly understand the technical terms they encounter every day.The first release shipped back in 2017, long before today's AI tools were available off the shelf. Flyaps built a custom tokenization layer on top of NLTK library to resolve the ambiguity problem - distinguishing "Go" the language from "go to the shop," or "Swift" the framework from the adjective, while also correctly recognizing multi-token terms like "Ruby on Rails" or "Amazon Web Services". It was a pragmatic, precise solution that made the extension genuinely usable from day one.The outcomes have validated that early bet. GlossaryTech now holds "Featured" status in the Chrome Web Store, has passed 25,000 downloads, and consistently serves 10,000+ weekly active users and 2,000+ daily active users. For a niche professional tool, that level of organic, sustained engagement is rare - and it traces directly back to the technical foundation Flyaps put in place.Beyond the engineering, what stood out was how Flyaps engaged with the product itself. They contributed to architecture decisions, flagged edge cases early, and treated scope conversations with honesty rather than upsell. Communication was straightforward throughout, deadlines were met, and the codebase has held up well as we've extended the product over time.I'd recommend Flyaps to anyone looking for a partner who combines solid engineering with genuine product thinking. They've been central to GlossaryTech's success and continue to be a team we trust.
Software Development Review from Dariia Ryzhova
Our collaboration with Flyaps has lasted for several major projects, of which I personally worked with them on two. I am very satisfied with the level of expertise (both technical and domain), the involvement and responsibility of the teams, and the quality of delivery. We successfully brought 2 major products to life together. Flyaps teams have diverse specializations, so I had the opportunity to attract consultants from different fields: software developers, including high-level architects, DevOps, QA, and business analysts.The teams have a modern technology stack and are experienced in Agile development. This allowed for smooth integration with internal teams and processes. It is also important to note that Flyaps provides technical consulting on demand, and this was very valuable service as well. Overall, I can recommend working with Flyaps as a reliable and high-quality partner.

I am IT Manager at Affordable Uniform Online. We have hired DigiPrima Technologies for e-commerce web design. We needed the latest version of the technology, Magento 2.4, because we wanted to build a robust, flexible and scalable open-source eCommerce platform. We were looking to hire online developers to design our website, then we found DigiPrima. After redesigning our eCommerce website, we have found it easy to upload products, and users are also comfortable buying uniforms online.

Troy Web took over the maintenance and service contract for our in depth healthcare career information and job posting website. Their ability to seamlessly take ownership, clean up and bring our site into a stable wordpress environment was done not only quickly, but also flawlessly. During our time with Troy Web, a number of updates and additional features were required to be built. They were not only able to build these aspects, but also to correct past build issues in the process making the site more reliable on a daily basis. In the last 6 months of their service we didn’t experience any unforeseen downtime with our website, which is extremely important to the function of our site for those that access and use it on a daily basis. Troy Web provides an exceptional service with a team that is always available and very knowledgeable.

Confusing technical vocabulary with delivery capability.
An agency can speak the right language in a sales call without having shipped a product at your complexity level.
Buyers get sold on the pitch, skip the portfolio audit, and discover the gap two or three months into a paid engagement when sprint velocity collapses, or early architectural decisions start creating problems that are expensive to reverse.
The way to catch it before signing is to directly ask the agency to walk you through a project that went wrong.
An agency with real delivery experience will talk about the specific decision that caused the problem and what they did differently afterward.
An agency without it will describe the outcome without touching the process.
The proposal is the agency's best effort under zero pressure. If problems appear here, the engagement will have larger ones.
Watch out for some of these warning signs:
An engagement contract should define scope, pricing, revision triggers, milestone timelines, and exit conditions clearly enough that neither party needs to interpret anything.
The clauses most likely to work against you and worth negotiating before signing include:
When two agencies carry comparable credentials, similar pricing, and equivalent portfolios, the deciding factor is almost always how each one behaves during the evaluation process itself.
Test these side by side:
| Differentiator | What a strong answer looks like |
| Account ownership | Named engineer with stated seniority and relevant experience |
| Industry depth | Multiple clients in your sector |
| Risk identification | Specific risks called out about your project |
| Communication cadence | Defined check-in schedule, not "we'll be in touch" |
| Response time | Stated commitment, typically 24 to 48 hours |
| Fee transparency | Written, itemized answer given without hesitation |
| Reference quality | Reference offered without prompting, from a comparable project |
Agencies quote more accurately, onboard faster, and make fewer assumptions when the buyer comes in prepared. Have the following ready before the first conversation:
The last item is underrated, as it allows the agency to understand what you have already attempted and thus spend less of your billable time on approaches you have already rejected.

The decision comes down to what you are building and how long you need to build it.
An in-house hire makes sense when software is a core, ongoing function of the business and will likely require continuous iteration and deeper institutional knowledge. An external hire, on the other hand, makes sense when the timeline is fixed or the technical requirements exceed what a single hire could cover.
If the answer to all these questions is “yes,” then likely a specialized agency is a better fit than an in-house hire:
Software development companies in New York typically charge $100 or more per hour, though rates as low as $40 per hour exist depending on the agency's size and specialization. North American agencies more broadly average $70 to $200+ per hour, with New York firms at the higher end of that range, given local market costs.
Here are some factors that drive price variation:
The quoted number and the final invoice rarely match. Notably, research shows that around 70% of software projects exceed their initial budget, with an average overrun of 27%. The gap usually compounds from several smaller add-ons that were not defined at the start.
The most common “hidden costs” include:
The simplest protection from such overruns is to ask for a written breakdown of every category of work that triggers an additional charge before signing anything.
Not by default, and for most buyers, the assumption works against them.
Larger software development companies in New York bring staffing depth, structured processes, and institutional accountability. For enterprise-level builds with complex compliance requirements, multi-region infrastructure, or large concurrent engineering teams, that scale is genuinely necessary.
For most projects, the dynamic tends to invert: your account gets assigned to mid-level engineers, senior oversight is limited, and the relationship becomes transactional once the contract is signed. The senior developer who impressed you in the sales call may not be the one writing your code.
The more useful question is who will lead your project day-to-day. Ask for the name, seniority level, and relevant experience of the lead engineer and project manager assigned to your account before signing.
Here are some situations that justify switching firms mid-project:
If you decide to switch, you will need: full codebase access and documentation, all environment credentials and infrastructure configurations, a list of open bugs and known issues, and any third-party API keys or service accounts tied to the project. Do not assume these will be handed over without being asked for explicitly; make them a condition of the offboarding.
The best window to switch is between major milestones, after a working build has been delivered and before the next phase begins. Switching mid-sprint, or worse, mid-launch, multiplies handoff risk significantly.
