      Software Development Review from Jeremy Ott

      This team was extremely responsive from the start. They pulled together a comprehensive quote for my MVP and have delivered on all of the requirements. The daily updates from the product/project manager are extremely helpful and it’s clear that the team cares about the quality of work they deliver. The engineers working on the product are always willing to make recommendations and go above and beyond to make the experience and underlying infrastructure that much better.

      eCommerce Development Review from Luc Vlekken

      We've had the pleasure of working closely with this development team on several projects, and the experience has been consistently excellent. Not only are they highly skilled developers, but they also think along with us both from a technical and a product/customer perspective. Their proactive attitude, reliability, and ability to translate complex requirements into elegant solutions make them a true partner rather than just a supplier. Highly recommended.

      Yuliia Ten's Review Sourced from Google

      I started working with SoftDoes when our product had already grown beyond the point where small fixes were enough. We needed to rethink several parts of the system and make sure the next stage of growth would not create even more technical debt.The team got into the project fast. Within the first few weeks, they helped us identify the main bottlenecks, clean up several fragile integrations, and improve the parts of the platform that were slowing us down the most.One practical result was that a key operation that used to take around 4-5 minutes now takes less than a minute. I also saw a noticeable drop in recurring technical issues after the release.What I liked most was the way they worked with us. Very little ceremony, clear communication, good technical judgment, and a strong sense of ownership.I’d be happy to work with SoftDoes again on another complex software project.

      Ryder Mackey's Review Sourced from Google

      My experience with SoftDoes has been extremely disappointing. Their communication is terrible, the people I dealt with were highly unprofessional, and their pricing is absolutely outrageous compared to the value of the work being delivered.One of my biggest concerns is the company’s lack of transparency. From what I’ve observed, their development work appears to be outsourced to people in Ukraine through another company called Come Back Agency. Even when I searched for SoftDoes online, its website appeared to redirect to Come Back Agency.Take a look at their LinkedIn yourself. They present themselves as a Kansas City-based company, yet I couldn’t find a single employee listed as being based in Kansas City. That raises serious questions about their business structure, where their team actually operates, and who you’re really paying to develop your software.My interactions with the CEO, Orest, were particularly unpleasant. I found him extremely arrogant, dismissive, and condescending. He speaks to customers as though they’re beneath him. Rather than addressing legitimate concerns professionally, his attitude made an already frustrating experience even worse.Their Google reviews also raised serious red flags for me. Several reviewer profiles appeared to have AI-generated profile pictures, and the reviews themselves read as though they were written by ChatGPT rather than genuine customers. Many of these accounts had only ever reviewed SoftDoes.After I confronted them about these concerns, I noticed that some profile pictures had been changed to what appeared to be stock images, and the accounts had gained an additional review of random places. I cannot independently verify who operates these accounts, but the timing and patterns made me seriously question the authenticity of their online reputation.Nothing about my experience with SoftDoes has inspired trust. If you’re looking for custom software development, do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. Verify who you’re actually doing business with, who will be developing your software, and what you’re paying for.

      Kevin Parker's Review Sourced from Google

      We had been running a large part of our business through spreadsheets and a mix of different tools for years. We've grown past spreadsheets now. SoftDoes built a custom platform around the way our team actually works. That's probably what we appreciated most about working with them.

      UI/UX Design Review from Vas Grygorovych

      We partnered with LYQX to design and build the mobile experience for our e-commerce marketplace. We needed a team that could cover the full cycle UX research, UI design, Flutter development for iOS and Android, and backend integration without us having to coordinate several separate vendors. LYQX started by mapping the key marketplace flows for both buyers and sellers: onboarding, product discovery and search, listings, cart and checkout, order tracking, and seller management. They turned this into a clear design system and clickable prototypes, which made it easy for our stakeholders to give feedback before development began. The Flutter build then followed the approved designs closely, and the team integrated payments, notifications, and our existing backend APIs. What we valued most was their product thinking. LYQX did not simply execute tickets they questioned assumptions, suggested simpler flows where our requirements were overcomplicated, and flagged risks early. Communication was consistent, with regular demos and quick responses when priorities shifted. A few integration points took extra iterations because our own API documentation was incomplete, but the team handled it proactively and kept us informed. Overall, LYQX was a reliable, product-minded partner, and we would work with them again.
