Designli Reviews & Testimonials

Software Development Review from Anshuman Yadav
Designli created a clickable Figma prototype for the MVP of our AI-powered operating system, along with a detailed technical document for building it. As a founder, having something real to show made it much easier to validate the idea with potential customers and present it to investors. The team acted quickly on feedback, communicated proactively, and kept the project on schedule. Pairing design with technical planning gave us a clear path from concept to build.

Software Development Review from David Williamson
We brought Designli in to turn our construction management software idea into a clickable MVP prototype, complete with designed screens and user stories showing how the platform will work. They delivered on time and beyond what we expected. People in the construction industry who tried it were impressed by how simple and easy to use it is, even though the product behind it is complex. Communication was quick and clear, and the project was well managed throughout.

Mobile App Development Review from John Laporte
Designli helped us define the requirements, features, and user experience for an app for our motorcycle organization. They produced technical documentation and a clickable prototype covering navigation, member tools, and safety features. They were responsive, delivered on time every time, and turned our broad concepts into something people could actually click through. The prototype got our stakeholders aligned, earned internal approval, and set us up for engineering, and working out design questions early should save us rework later.

Software Development Companies FAQs
What are the most requested services of custom software development firms?
The most requested services from custom software development firms are almost entirely AI-based products, delivered primarily through web application development, mobile development, AI agent development, and legacy system refactoring. UX/UI design, cloud infrastructure, DevOps, and QA automation are typically not sold as standalone services; instead, they are embedded within each of these project types.
As reported by Diffco, year-over-year trends show a prevailing shift: AI agent development has grown from a niche request into a significant share of overall volume, while demand for legacy system refactoring continues to rise as clients seek to prepare their existing systems to support AI capabilities.
| Service | Share of total demand |
| Web application development | 40% |
| Mobile app development | 30% |
| AI agent development | 20% |
| Legacy system refactoring | 10% |
How much does a software development company charge for its services?
Software development services typically cost $50,000 for MVPs to $2 million+ for enterprise software. US developers generally charge $120-$200/hour, while developers in Europe and Asia charge around $25-$150/hour.
How do I determine if a global company is the right size for my project?
To determine if a global software development agency is the right size for your project, match project complexity and scale to company capacity.
Choose a large/global agency with 1000+ staff, if your project:
- Is complex or enterprise-grade, includes multiple software solutions, integrations, and compliance
- Requires multiple roles in parallel (project management, UX/UI design, backend, quality assurance (QA), DevOps)
- Needs 24/7 support, multi-time-zone delivery, or long-term maintenance
Large software development companies reduce delivery risk for complex programs but typically charge higher rates and use more structured processes.
Choose a small or mid-size agency with 10-200 staff if your project:
- Is an MVP or mid-scale build
- Requires speed, flexibility, and direct access to senior talent
- Has a tighter budget and well-defined scope
Who owns the Intellectual Property (IP) and source code at the end of the project?
In most software development projects, the client owns the Intellectual Property (IP) and source code upon completion of the engagement, unless the contract explicitly states otherwise. Standard practice dictates that the ownership of the source code, documentation, design elements, and custom deliverables belongs to the client upon full payment. Contracts typically use "work made for hire" or an IP assignment clause to formalize this.
Third-party or open-source components, however, are not owned by the client. Instead, they are used under their respective licenses. Some agencies retain ownership of pre-existing frameworks or reusable tools and grant the client a license to use them. You should also know that IP ownership is not automatic. To avoid disputes, ensure the contract clearly states full IP and source-code ownership transfers to you upon payment, with no usage limitations.
What tools and frameworks do software developers use?
They use various tools and frameworks, depending on the type of digital product they’re building. But the most common include:
- Full-stack JavaScript: MERN, MEAN, Jamstack (ex, Next.js)
- Backend: Java-Spring, Python, Django, Ruby on Rails, LAMP
- UI and Cross-Platform Development: React, Angular, Vue, Qt
- Languages: JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Kotlin
- AI and Data-Driven Development: Python, Hugging Face, LangChain, Apache Spark, Kafka, Kubeflow, Lite, ONNX, Replit
- QA and Testing: Selenium, Cypress, Jenkins, GitLab, JMeter, OWASP ZAP, Testim, Mabl
What are the best software development companies in 2026?

What questions should I ask before hiring a software development company?
Before hiring a software development company, ask:
- Have you built similar software before?
- Which technologies will you use?
- Who will work on my project?
- What is included in the scope?
- How long will development take?
- How do you handle testing and security?
- Do you provide support after launch?
How do I reduce the risk of hiring the wrong software development company?
Check the company’s exit terms and review cadence before comparing prices. Short notice periods and frequent demos give you more opportunities to spot problems and change direction early. For example, Designli uses biweekly demos, offers a refundable first 14 days, and allows clients to cancel with 30 days’ notice.
