Over a couple years ago, we hired CB to assist in developing an app for a great long standing client of ours.The engagement started out great, but over time got worse and worse.Months of delays. Bad communication. Empty promises.Then when we were delivered a non-functioning app, we were told we had 2 days to submit issues before the project was closed due to their TOS.And that TOS was different when we signed, so make sure you screenshot the current TOS.In the end the client fired us after 2 years of not being able to deliver an app that we all paid for in full (to receive a discount), but never functioned, and CB did not take any ownership. Rather than listening to our issues, they kept pointing to their TOS on the timeline to let them know of problems with the app.We ended up hiring and paying a different developer on our own dime to recreate the application from scratch.The damage was already done as far as the client relationship went.I kept all of the chats, screenshots, and everything showing the application#1 didn't meet our agreed upon requirements, and#2 was full of errors and issues.After a lot of back and forth, they agreed to assign someone to fix the app, but that went dark as well, and untimately went nowhere.On the plus side, some of the CB team were very nice, hence the 2 stars.

I was really hoping the other reviews would be wrong but, after spending $70,000 we have no app (not even close) and virtually no communication. They make tons of promises but will leave you high and dry once they receive your final payment. Please don’t fall for this scam. I promise you’ll regret it.

I’ve been working with Crowdbotics for a few years now to develop my dating app, DateSafe, and I can confidently say that I’m quite pleased with the overall experience.When I first began my search for a development partner, I reached out to about ten different companies. Crowdbotics was the first to respond, and right from our initial meeting, their sales representative impressed me with his professionalism and understanding of my vision. I appreciated the way he took the time to answer all my questions and provided insights that showed he genuinely cared about my project. Although I interviewed several other companies, I ultimately decided to go with Crowdbotics because they offered a great balance of support, quality, and pricing that fit my budget.We kicked off the project in October 2021, with an expected completion date in the spring of 2022. While the timeline did extend longer than initially anticipated, I want to emphasize that the final product is worth the wait. There were definitely some growing pains along the way for both me and Crowdbotics, including changes in project managers and shifts in timelines. However, the team at Crowdbotics remained committed to delivering a robust app that met my expectations.For anyone that’s completely new to the world of app development, like I was/am, I would suggest really scrutinizing the PRD (Product Requirement Document) and get every single little detail/desire/function down on that document and understand everything that’s on there. Ask questions and get (and give) clarity—don’t assume anything! Things that might be obvious to you, might not be to the developers and vice versa. The PRD is what they will refer back to and if something isn’t on there you will (obviously) have to pay for it to be implemented if it’s something you really want. There were other things I learned along the way, but I think that is my biggest piece of advice. Oh! And be aware that Apple is very difficult to get apps published on the AppStore, so budgeting for a Progressive Web App from the start of your project might be worth it.Now that DateSafe is pretty much complete, I can truly appreciate the hard work and dedication that went into the development. I’m so grateful to everyone along the way, especially the few that have been apart of the team from the very beginning until the finished product. The app functions well, and I’m excited to take it to market. Overall, I would recommend Crowdbotics to anyone looking for a reliable, comprehensive development partner, especially if you’re willing to be patient through the process. They have a talented team that will work to bring your vision to life.
