Azumo Reviews & Testimonials

Software Development Review from Michael S.
We selected Azumo to develop our software. We transitioned from another development company, so Azumo was initially responsible for migrating our existing code and environments. We are currently still working with Azumo as our nearshore software development team on adding new items to our software.

UI/UX Design Review from Anonymous
Azumo helped us migrate our existing UIs into a new framework, creating reusable components and the infrastructure needed for future development. The developer they assigned became a seamless part of our team, always punctual, responsive, and a great fit overall.

IT Services Review from Taras Oliinyk
The project involved developing a mobile app for an e-commerce client, with U1CORE building the marketplace and WEZOM responsible for the mobile application. Both companies worked as partners on the same product, so the mobile app had to fit naturally into the marketplace's functionality. WEZOM brought solid mobile development expertise to the project and built the application around the marketplace requirements. Their team was able to work within the shared product setup and keep the mobile functionality consistent as the project progressed. We would be happy to work with WEZOM again on similar projects!

eCommerce Development Review from Ivan Usenko
We involved WEZOM to support the technical side of a U.S. e-commerce client's advertising setup. Our team handled PPC and marketing, while WEZOM implemented server-side tracking and profit-based ROAS attribution.Their technical work fit well into the client's existing setup and gave us a more reliable view of campaign performance. This made it easier to assess results and adjust advertising spend accordingly. Overall, we had a positive experience with WEZOM!

eCommerce Development Review from Max Zakhozhiy
For one of our jewelry e-commerce clients, WEZOM took care of the website development while our team handled its promotion. The teams coordinated well throughout the project, especially on technical requirements that could affect the websites future promotion. WEZOM was open to our input and made it easy to align development with the client's marketing needs. The finished website gave us a good foundation for ongoing promotion, and we were happy with how the two teams worked together. We'd be glad to collaborate with WEZOM again.

Clearly defined roles and responsibilities, communication is clearly and respectfully, very effective project methodology, trying to understand every time how their activities fits into mission of Modra zavarovalnica, respect each member of team, etc.

Software Development Review from Claus-Peter Mueller
We have engaged Infinum to develop an app that would digitalise our leasing process. From creating the initial offer through the necessary financing application and client identification to the final signature – all the steps required to successfully lease a vehicle or other object can be performed in-app, freeing the users of friction and having to deal with tedious paperwork.The app itself in the background has 30+ integrations, while keeping a seamless and quick to follow process on the front for our users. That application is in production and Infinum is responsible for maintaining it and further improving. After the initial development, we have additionally expanded our scope from vehicles to other equipment. They have also developed a Leasing widget, product which enables quick financing model while purchasing a vehicle online on car seller marketplace pages. At this moment, we are still in partnership with Infinum, and their engagement is mainly focused on localising the app to other countries and supporting us in our further business expansion. The work performed was done in Ruby on Rails and React technology, with support of other services.
Web Design Review from Anonymous
Thanks to Infinum's website refresh, the client has seen an almost 100% improvement in their website's conversion rates. The team excels at project management, using the client's own proprietary tool and also Figma very well. Their proficiency in design, delivery, and client relations stands out.

They have highly skilled support staff for faster resolution which leads to customer satisfaction. Also, it has many features including IoT and blockchain apart from regular software development. If there are any changes in the scope of the project at a later stage, it can prove quite costly and also difficult to accommodate last-minute client-side scripting changes. They are versatile, cost-effective, and offer quick customer support. They offer a very customized software development tool where business needs can be addressed. It is very cost-optimized and hence can help generate good returns for business investment.

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.
