      UI/UX Design Review from Jamie Flett

      Chimpare Design Lab helped us with a UI/UX research process, which included in-person interviews where they walked users through unboxing, connecting, and using the features of our smart air conditioner. From there, the team took the findings and produced a report for us to make improvements to our app and increase our activation rates. In addition to the report, Momentum Design Lab also redesigned some parts of our app using Figma.The project required a very iterative process, so we required more than one discovery call to get started. In fact, they didn't just work with me; we also integrated our consumer marketing insights team to identify participants. We also collaborated with them to figure out how to recruit the right users based on our target customer profiles.

      WordPress Website Design Review from Hannah Woods

      We had a great experience working with Code18. Steve and his team was polished, communicative, and proactive bringing not just technical skill, but real strategic insight to the table. They challenged us (in a good way) to think differently about our website, how we structure our products, and how we present our brand online.We came to them with a fairly complex product catalog, and they delivered a custom backend solution that madegthe customer-facing experience clean, clear, and easy to navigate. They offered smart, scalable solutions that prioritized both usability and long-term flexibility.Wed highly recommend them to any team looking for a strategic, collaborative, and technically sharp web development partner.

      WordPress Website Design Review from Clea Bierman

      Blue Meridian Partners has worked with Constructive as our website design and development partner for more than eight years. During that time, they have played a significant role in shaping our digital presence and helping bring our brand to life online. What I've appreciated most is Constructive's ability to balance creativity with stewardship. They have consistently found thoughtful ways to push our brand forward when innovation was needed, while also respecting and working intelligently within established brand guidelines. Their team understands how to translate complex ideas into engaging digital experiences. Across dozens of projects, I've worked with three different project managers, and each has been highly accountable and genuinely enjoyable to partner with. The relationships have been professional, collaborative, and built on trust. We've also had several occasions where creative projects required significant work on very tight timelines with little notice, and Constructive consistently found a way to deliver. Like any long-term partnership, navigating complex websites and evolving organizational needs requires ongoing communication and attention. What has kept us coming back year after year is Constructive's commitment to partnership, their willingness to solve problems alongside us, and the care they bring to our mission. I am grateful for their contributions to Blue Meridian's growth and would confidently recommend Constructive to organizations looking for a thoughtful, mission-driven digital agency.

      Nonprofits Review from Robert Espinoza

      Constructive built PHIs website back in 2017-2018 and, in many ways, they have been with the organization ever since. Over almost eight years, they've grown alongside PHI rather than simply maintaining a site. PHI is a national nonprofit working at the intersection of research, policy, and workforce interventions on the direct care workforce, and a lot of what we do is complicated. Constructive's remarkable team has had a real knack for turning that complexity into something clear, usable, and genuinely engaging online.Some of the things I'm most proud of from our partnership like our worker story gallery, our national resource center on direct care workers, and our online index came out of that collaboration. These weren't just features; they became core parts of how we tell our story and share our work with advocates, policymakers, and practitioners.What made Constructive stand out was how invested they were in our mission. They were creative and technically excellent, yes but more than that, they showed up as a true partner. We didn't experience them as a vendor so much as an extension of our team. I would absolutely recommend them to any nonprofit or social impact organization looking for a thoughtful, dependable digital partner.

      Nonprofits Review from Diana Denza, MPA

      The Center for Family Representation worked with Constructive on a year-long rebranding process that overhauled our logo, colors, website, and all of our marketing collateral. As a result of this process, we now have a brand that truly represents our organization and the work we do for low-income NYC families. Constructive was highly responsive and professional throughout the process, working with us to ensure that every element of the rebranding felt just right.

      Karen D Taylor's Review Sourced from Google

      Nowadays, it seems that customer service and subject-area expertise are at an all-time low, but HUBSPIRE is a wonderfully professional, knowledgeable IT company. In record time, this fantastic company built a beautiful mobile app for a preservation project in Harlem, While We Are Still Here. Our SIGNS OF THE TIMES: Harlem Markers Project is a series of 25 plaques around the neighborhood, and the app that HUBSPIRE created is easy to use and gorgeous. I would recommend the company for any IT needs you may have.

      Working with the Hubspire team has been nothing short of incredible. From day one, their professionalism, clarity, and efficiency stood out. Thomas, the owner, leads with a rare combination of deep technical knowledge and true collaborative spirit. We wanted to build out a smartphone photography service app, a new concept carving out a new market, and they embraced the challenge.They didn’t just build and develop our app (Fliiks)—we had a real partner in the process. Their workflow is smooth, their procedures top-notch, and their communication always clear. What really sets them apart is their dedication to going above and beyond. They constantly brought ideas to the table to make things more efficient and scalable.If you're looking for a team that not only executes flawlessly but also brings real value and insight to the table, Hubspire is the one. I highly recommend them for any business or tech project.
