Thank you iQlance for the hardwork, we look forward to work with you on our next project.
Project Management Review from Darcy McQuaid
The work IQ Lance has done for us has been absolutely phenomenal, meeting all deadlines with exceptional quality. Over the past year and a half, the collaboration with Crunal and IQ Lance has been outstanding. They were brought on board as our technical partner to handle the development side of our projects. Throughout this period, they have met all their deadlines, and the staff has been extremely friendly. The quality of the final product has been exactly as we envisioned and desired. Crunal, specifically as our project manager, has gone above and beyond. He has been incredible, acting as a translator between our business objectives and the technical team at IQ Lance. His efforts have been crucial in ensuring that our goals are clearly communicated and effectively implemented. What I appreciate the most about IQ Lance is their ability to meet deadlines and deliver high-quality work. The staff's friendliness and Crunal's exceptional project management skills have been invaluable to our success.

eCommerce Development Review from Olha Yilmaz
We were searching for a partner because advertising alone can't deliver great results if the website isn't well-designed, user-friendly, and fast. That's why we chose to work with DigitalSuits, integrating their development services to enhance site performance alongside our advertising and SEO optimization efforts.DigitalSuits exceeded our expectations. They redesigned the entire store to create a modern, responsive interface, developed a dynamic product configurator that enabled real-time customization, and optimized the sites performance for faster loading times. As a result, our client saw an increase in engagement rates, a 33% reduction in page load times that led to lower bounce rates, and a 25% boost in average order value. DigitalSuits' project management was exceptional, they responded quickly to the clients needs and kept us informed throughout the entire process.
eCommerce Development Review from Kateryna Sheremet
We needed a website for selling something special like experiences. As it was not a simple Shopify functionality, we chose DigitalSuits company as a Shopify expert. With their help, we created an e-commerce solution to sell experiences. Before the development process, DigitalSuits implemented all documentation covering the business requirements, guides on mockup creation, and product functionality. DigitalSuits experts know how to support and provide further improvements to our website.
eCommerce Development Review from Andrey Ryabuhin
Our client asked DigitalSuits to help with Shopify store development. To do so, the company was responsible for website design and development, and post-release maintenance and support. The company provided us with a team of 3 developers, 1 UI/UX designer, and a Project Manager.To help increase brand awareness and make the E-Commerce platform as useful as possible, DigitalSuits added the FAQ section, Blog and About pages, custom features like bundle creator, and a User Profile page.

RichestSoft Reviews & Testimonials
Web Development Review from Lathan Ashton
RichestSoft was tasked with taking our existing templates, upgrading them to the latest version of our CMS, and deploying them to a staging environment. They also updated the designs for all subsections of the site. The site is fairly generic, consisting of static pages with links from the homepage to product descriptions, case studies, and more. Our team can easily log into the CMS and update case studies without needing a web developer, which has been a huge advantage. Our primary concern was the seamless conversion of our old templates, and RichestSoft handled this flawlessly. They even suggested ideas like making the site multilingual, though we only needed an English version, so it wasn’t necessary in our case.
Web Development Review from Robbie Hart
The website now has a more modern and appealing feel, and we've noticed an increase in the number of visitors since working with RichestSoft. They effectively leverage their technologies, and their communication and timeliness have been satisfactory throughout the project. Our business is centered around land development and industrial projects, supported by a team of IT professionals that manage the technology driving our operations. Our mission is to provide quality and satisfaction by utilizing our knowledge, experience, and ambition to meet and exceed our clients' expectations.
Web Development Review from James Shehan
RichestSoft consistently delivered on a complex and demanding project, handling all tasks with efficiency. Whenever any bugs or issues surfaced on the site, they promptly resolved them. While there have been occasional communication challenges, none of these have affected the high-quality and cost-effective service they provide.

It's refreshing to work with a team that combines creativity, efficiency, affordability, and genuine dedication to their clients. A great partner to have for any business!
Sito Pons's Review Sourced from Google
We just wrapped up a several-month project with the team at Kodexo Labs Austin and they were fantastic to work with. The project was complex, but they stayed patient, responsive, and super professional the whole time. Their team made everything feel smooth and well-organized, and the end result really speaks for itself. Definitely one of the best software development companies in Austin and we're already planning our next project with them.
Sean Peterson's Review Sourced from Google
Worked with Kodexo Labs Austin on a custom app for our delivery service, and they really impressed me. We wanted to integrate some AI features to predict delivery times and optimize routes they not only made it happen, but explained the tech in a way that actually made sense. Communication was smooth, no BS, and they stuck to the timeline. If you need mobile app development in Austin, especially anything AI-related, I’d definitely recommend them.

Web Development Review from Paul Dhillon
This project was for a complex website with over 500 pages that required marketing automation. Clavax did a fantastic job from the start. They planned the project execution very well and broke up responsibilities. They kept us informed on their progress with daily activity reports and frequent meetings.
Smoked Justice's Review Sourced from Google
Do not recommend using this company at all. Their references seemed trustworthy, but the 20 month process with them has been abysmal at best.After engaging with Clavax to build a custom greenfield IOS app, we waited over 16 months AFTER our original due date for our "product" to be virtually unusable. Difficult to communicate with, over promise and under deliver on every aspect of project.We have had to spend more money with different companies to repair the broken code that they have put together and it continues to be a thorn in our side.They will bring excuse after excuse for why something does not work, their CEO will blame YOU, THE CLIENT, for the obstacles in project.We have tried to get a refund for breach of contract, inoperable product, corrupt files in repository, late deliveries, however, they refuse to acknowledge any of these issues.

Marabout's Review Sourced from Google
I worked at this company for a shot period of time and the review posted by former client is 100% accurate. Most of the people I met are super cool and many are super-talented. But the soft and managerial skills at the management level is not conducive of success, unfortunately. In the end, I realized how lucky I had been in my career so I was grateful for the eye-opener.
DC Drone Pilot's Review Sourced from Google
My development staff worked with HappyFunCorp over a multitude of times over the last year and their experience was that communications and the relationship on HFC's side was being conducted in an unprofessional manner compared to other providers we have worked with in the past several years of launching our newest venture.Due to these prior experiences, we have decided to cut our professional relationship with this software developer permanently. We we referred to them by another client, and at first we thought there was synergy, but that no longer seems the case as HFC is no longer following their values that at one time made them an industry leader.We will seek other options and there are far better developers our there for those seeking an alternative. We suggest you do your due diligence before contacting this firm. How this firm conducts business is critical to your success, so do yourself a favor and consider other solution providers.
Brett Edgerton's Review Sourced from Google
This company, according to industry insiders, is now insolvent. There are several posts and discussions about this once awesome company for software development, that is now working through how to deal with the bankruptcy.We have had several colleagues that have attempted to contact this company, only to be told they are no longer accepting new projects due to financial constraints and need to reorganize.

Everything You Need to Know Before Hiring a Software Development Company in New York
What is the single biggest mistake buyers make when hiring a software development agency in New York?
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.
What red flags in a proposal should make you walk away before signing?
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:
- No named engineers. Ask for names and seniority levels before signing.
- Fixed-price contracts on undefined scope. Fixed pricing only works when requirements are fully documented first. An agency offering a fixed price before requirements are locked is either underquoting to win the deal or planning to recover the margin through change orders.
- No change control process defined. Every software project has scope shifts. A proposal that does not define what happens when requirements change leaves the agency free to interpret it in its favor when billing questions arise later.
- Vague timeline language. "Approximately 3 to 4 months" without defined milestones or delivery checkpoints is a placeholder.
- Pressure to sign quickly. Urgency at the proposal stage is a sales tactic. It tends to reappear throughout the relationship.
What should an engagement contract contain?
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:
- Vague scope definitions. Language like "software development services as needed" without named deliverables gives the agency latitude to bill for work you did not anticipate authorizing.
- Unstated change order thresholds. The contract should specify what constitutes a scope change, what approval is required, and what it will cost, before any changes are requested.
- Auto-renewal clauses. Contracts that renew automatically with 30 to 60-day cancellation windows can lock you into another full cycle regardless of performance. Make sure the exit terms are explicit.
- Conditional code return terms. Contracts that make returning source code or documentation conditional on outstanding payment create leverage that is difficult to challenge after the fact.
- Undefined IP ownership. Confirm in writing that your business owns all code, assets, and documentation produced during the engagement. Do not assume this is standard; it should be stated explicitly.
How do you choose between two software developers in New York who look equally qualified on paper?
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 |
What should you have prepared before approaching a software development company in New York?
Agencies quote more accurately, onboard faster, and make fewer assumptions when the buyer comes in prepared. Have the following ready before the first conversation:
- Clear software requirements, description of what you are building, and what problem it solves
- Your current tech stack, if one exists
- Any third-party systems the new software needs to integrate with
- A realistic budget range
- A timeline and what is driving it (a launch date, a funding milestone, a regulatory deadline)
- A list of what you have already tried or ruled out, and why
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.

5 Frequently Asked Questions About Software Development Companies in New York
How do I know if I need a software development agency or an in-house hire?
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:
- Do you need something shipped within a specific window?
- Do you need multiple specializations at once?
- Are you not sure yet about the product direction to justify a permanent headcount commitment?
How much do software development companies in New York charge for their services?
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:
- Seniority mix. An agency billing you lower hourly rates is likely staffing your project with junior or mid-level developers, whereas an agency charging higher fees typically means senior engineers will be hands-on.
- Engagement model. Fixed-price contracts carry a built-in risk premium: agencies charge more upfront to protect against scope shifts. Time-and-materials contracts are priced lower per hour but require active management on your end to prevent overruns.
- Specialization. A software development company in New York that works primarily in fintech, healthcare, or regulated industries will price above a generalist shop.
- Project size. Agencies price smaller engagements higher per hour. A $30,000 project will cost more per hour than a $300,000 one from the same firm.
What hidden costs don't show up in the initial quote?
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:
- Scope change fees. Any feature or requirement that was not in the original spec gets billed as a change of order, typically at a higher hourly rate than the base engagement.
- QA and testing. Some software developers in New York include testing in the base scope. Many do not. User acceptance testing, load testing, and security testing are frequently itemized separately.
- Infrastructure and environment setup. Cloud configuration, third-party API integrations, and staging environments often appear as separate line items after the contract is signed.
- Post-launch support. Bug fixes, performance monitoring, and small adjustments after go-live are almost always billed separately unless written into the contract upfront.
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.
Is a larger software development company in New York safer than a smaller one?
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.
When does it make sense to switch software development companies mid-project?
Here are some situations that justify switching firms mid-project:
- Consistent missed sprint deliverables with no clear explanation
- Engineers who cannot answer questions about their own architectural decisions
- Billing disputes the agency will not itemize or resolve
- A point of contact who relays information but cannot make decisions
- Code that an independent review has flagged as creating long-term technical debt
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.
