We’ve worked with Saad and his team for close to a year now. They’ve been diligent throughout the process, responsive and communicative.

Anime Mates's Review Sourced from Google
Celect Studios is not as advertised at all. Stay clear or lose all your money and work diligently to get your money back. Project is 8 months past deadline and no end in site. On our 3rd Developer. The the Developers tell you fake names. American names. But I got an invite from IOS platform for them to upload the “Competed Build” that NEVER HAPPENED but his name was Muhammad. Not Frank. I knew it was a lie after the first developer. But we were already paid in full.
They always want more money and never produce results. They want you to sue. They will never honor their contracts. We lost over 30k and counting and they will NEVER EVER RESPOND. Legal is non existent. Once they get you the “Alpha Build” and solidify the last payment the company disappears. No more calls. No updates. No ZOOM CALLS. No Google Meets. Just missed deadlines and some text messages promising completion but NEVER anything in writing after you have made your payments.
Finally, when you ask for what you’ve paid for “i.e Source Code”, they only send it AFTER you sign a contract to give up every single liability and deny all refunds. They are a SCAM. 1 star is 5 stars too much. They are going to rob you without a gun.DONT ever send a DOLLAR for hosting and maintenance. DONT do it.

A Nightmare Experience - Avoid at All Costs
I had high hopes when I started working with Celect Studios, but my experience turned out to be nothing short of a nightmare. What was initially promised to be a 4-month project has now dragged on for two years, and we have absolutely nothing to show for it.
From the very beginning, it was clear that this company has no regard for industry best practices in programming and the structural development of mobile applications. If you're looking for a professional, reliable partner for mobile app development, this is not the company for you. Their work lacks quality, and the final product is far from functional or complete.
Throughout the process, I went through four different project managers, none of whom had any idea what they were doing. Each time a new one was assigned, we had to start from scratch, and the confusion only grew. They all seemed to be passing the blame around while accomplishing nothing.
But the worst part? The contracts. We had two broken contracts during this ordeal, and getting any response from their so-called legal department was like playing a cat and mouse game. The "legal department" wasn’t a department at all—it was just a wall of silence and evasion. When our "project manager" suggested we contact legal for a refund due to the contract breaches, our request was flat-out denied. They missed every single deadline, broke every promise, yet had no trouble taking our payments when it was time to move to the "next phase" of the project.
At this point, I’ve even filed a complaint with the Texas Attorney General because I truly feel scammed. However, I’m not sure that will amount to much considering how this company has handled everything else.
In short, I strongly advise against doing any kind of business with Celect Studios. They are all about getting you in the door and taking your money, and when you try to hold them accountable, they just ignore you or waste more of your time. There are far more professional and reliable companies out there who actually care about delivering quality results and customer satisfaction. Even a one-star review is way too generous at this point.

Priyanshi Verma's Review Sourced from Google
Unprofessional, Mentally Draining, and Disrespectful Work Culture
My overall experience with this company was extremely toxic. During my short tenure, I observed several deeply unprofessional practices that left a lasting negative impact on me:
• Salaries were often delayed, without prior communication or explanation.
• There were unexplained deductions in monthly salary, and any attempts to raise concerns were either ignored or dismissed by HR.
• The HR department was shockingly rude. I personally witnessed employees being humiliated or emotionally broken when they decided to resign — some even left in tears.
• No proper Full and Final Settlement (FNF) or professional offboarding process was followed. It’s like once you resign, you’re treated as if you never existed.
• Even after resignation, the company continued to send intimidating and threatening emails and begging for small amount of money like 20k, showing a complete lack of empathy — especially towards people who were already in a tough personal or financial situation.
If you’re considering joining, please rethink carefully. Make sure everything is documented in writing — verbal promises mean nothing here. A company’s real face shows not when you join, but when you try to leave. And unfortunately, this one shows zero professionalism, zero compassion, and zero respect for employees.

One of the worst organisation I have ever experienced . Exit process is worst moreover company doesn’t respond on your final f&f queries and literally one has to chase to get their full n final payment. Depending upon clients requirement organisation and their leaders push their employees and even salary is deducted if it is not billed as per clients need. Pathetic to be honest. Lala companies are doing better than this in country.

IT Outsourcing Review from Wiljen van den Berg
Xduce was very complient at first, but quickly made it nescessary toput in more money, for obviously a bigger reward. When the target was achieved and my funds should be returned including my reward, it became nescessary to deposit mor money to finish my last assignment and free the funds. When i pointed out the system itself notified the i couldnt continue (with screenshots) my "mentor" Kevin 044 7782 608823 (save this number) started to mock me, lie to me and later on threaten for defamation. When i talked to Customerservice they did pretty much the same, until i struck a nerve, after which to mock me they told me "there is no money, you will not get get paid if you complete the task. I have all the screenshots to prove my case. please contact me to settle this at wiljen.vandenberg@wf-ib.de

5 FAQs About Software Development Companies in Texas
What are the red flags when evaluating software developers in Texas?
The clearest red flag is an agency that skips a paid discovery phase and moves directly to writing code, which almost always leads to scope creep, plenty of rework, and a final bill that bears no resemblance to the original quote.Â
If the development requirements are not well defined prior to billing, the ambiguity works in the software agency’s favor as it allows it to add more billable hours. Here are some other warning signs to look for during evaluation:Â
No structured discovery phase offered. Any agency that can quote a fixed price within 48 hours of a brief discovery call hasn't fully scoped your project.Â
Case studies that show screenshots but not outcomes. A credible case study should name the client, the problem, the timeline, and the outcome. Â
The team you meet in sales is not the team building your product. Ask to meet your assigned project manager and lead developer before signing. Â
Vague answers on IP ownership. You should own 100% of the code on day one after final payment. Any hedging on this needs a lawyer before you proceed.Â
No defined communication frequency in the contract. If sprint reviews, status reports, and escalation paths aren't written into the agreement, you'll be chasing updates six months in.Â
References are unavailable or from more than three years ago. Tech projects fail regularly; ask for two references from engagements completed in 2024 or 2025.Â
What do software development companies in Texas charge that most clients don't expect?
 Project management overhead and infrastructure provisioning routinely add 30% to 50% to the base development rate. Here's what other costs are commonly add-ons:Â
Change order premiums. Every feature added after scope sign-off is typically billed at a higher rate. Agencies add 20% to 40% contingency to fixed-price quotes simply because requirements almost always change.Â
Post-launch support and maintenance. Annual post-launch support for any application is rarely included in a proposal for the build phase.Â
Cloud infrastructure and DevOps setup. AWS, Azure, or GCP configurations do not fall under development, and agencies often bill them separately.Â
QA and testing. Many proposals quote for development hours only. Â
Handover and documentation. At the end of the engagement, you need working documentation to maintain and extend the codebase.Â
What's the difference between a good Texas software agency and an average one?
The difference between a good and average software developer in Texas will reflect in the way they handle your first two conversations: a good agency asks harder questions than you do, while an average agency rushes to propose solutions before understanding the problem.Â
Here's what separates them across the five critical evaluation criteria:Â
CriteriaÂ
Average agencyÂ
Good agencyÂ
DiscoveryÂ
Quotes after one callÂ
Charges for discovery; won't quote without itÂ
Case studiesÂ
Screenshots and logosÂ
Named client, defined problem, measurable outcomeÂ
Team accessÂ
Sales team only pre-contractÂ
Introduces your actual PM and lead dev before signingÂ
Scope handlingÂ
Agrees with everything you sayÂ
Pushes back on unrealistic timelines or budgetsÂ
Risk discussionÂ
No mention of what could go wrongÂ
Mentions technical and timeline risks proactivelyÂ
What should a software development case study feature?
A case study worth taking seriously names the client or offers a reference call, describes the specific technical problem, identifies the stack used, and quantifies a measurable outcome. Here's what to look for:Â
A defined starting point: Where was the client's system before the engagement? Without a baseline, be it legacy architecture, error rate, deployment frequency, or user drop-off, there is no way to evaluate how much the agency actually moved.Â
A specific problem: "The client needed a modernized platform" is not a problem. "The client's monolithic architecture was preventing deployments more than once per quarter" is. The specificity of the problem statement tells you how precisely the agency scopes work.Â
Stack and architecture decisions explained: Why did they choose that framework, cloud provider, or database? Agencies that can articulate sequencing decisions understand software architecture as a system.Â
Timeline honesty: How long did the engagement actually run versus what was originally scoped? An agency that only presents on-time, on-budget case studies is either working in low-complexity environments or omitting the engagements that didn't go as smooth.Â
A business outcome: Deployment frequency doubled. Support ticket volume dropped 60%. Time-to-close for sales-assisted workflows cut from 14 days to 3. If the case study stops at "we re-architected the backend," ask directly why no business result is cited.Â
How do I choose between two software developers in Texas that look equally qualified on paper?
When two software development companies look equally qualified on paper, the differentiator is always process. Ask each one the same operational questions and compare the specificity of their answers:Â
What happens if a requirement needs to change mid-sprint?  A named change order process with a written approval step is the right answer. "We're flexible" is not.Â
How do you handle a project that falls behind schedule?  You're looking for a specific escalation contact and a defined timeline for resolution.Â
Who do I contact at 4pm on a Friday with an urgent issue?  The answer should be a name, not a reference to a support portal.Â
Can I see a sample sprint report from a current engagement? Redacted client information is expected. What you're evaluating is the format, the depth, and whether it's the kind of document that would actually keep you informed.Â
What would you do differently if you could restart your most recent project?  An agency with no candid answer to that question hasn't examined its own work closely enough to improve it.Â
