ELEKS Reviews & Testimonials
John Armstrong Founder, CEO & CTO at Civex
5.0★
Software Development Review from John Armstrong
ELEKS was able to take our vision and help us deliver an app that empowers retail shareholders to make their voices heard. They’ve brought a depth and breadth of technical expertise and user experience design to challenge us on our assumptions on how people would want to interact with the app. From a mobile development perspective, we wanted to go to market with both an Android and an iPhone simultaneously.
Mark Battcock Digital Communication Director at Imerys

Software Development Review from Mark Battcock
We are very happy with our ELEKS partnership; the dedication of the team is exceptional. We would certainly recommend ELEKS and would be happy to work with them again. In fact, they continue to be our partner for the 2nd phase of the CDX project to add even more customer services to the website.

Software Development Review from Huntly Christie
What impressed me about ELEKS is the culture. There is a very strong culture of discipline and performance, and software is a profession where discipline is very important. Good software development can only happen with a strong work ethic, and I think the ELEKS team really understands that.

Wladimir Wolinski Project Manager at Seven Tips UG & Co. KG
5.0★
UI/UX Design Review from Wladimir Wolinski
Communication was smooth either through our teams communication channel or with the project manager via email. We were in daily contact with the UX/UI designer in form of dailies or when we had to clarify some questions. With the project manager, we had a short conversation every 2 weeks to clarify all possible questions.We personally love to work in a very process-oriented way. Because when we understand how to do something, we usually know how the end result can look like. With Digis, we also had the feeling that they knew what they were doing and how to do it. Every next step was planned from the beginning. If something didn't work in line with our processes, we could readjust it.We were basically satisfied with everything.

Danila our project manager has great communication and always responds in a timely manor. We always receive clear explanations and detailed time logs for the work that is done.

Mobile App Development Review from Gina Levy
Both the developer and tester have exceeded expectations. Their performance is excellent. Together they eliminated bugs, introduced new features, and ensured that the app is working without problems. Previously, we had many complaints in the app store. Since working with this developer and tester, these complaints about the app functioning and bugs have disappeared.The time zone different is sometimes challenging, since we are in California and they are in Europe.

iPhone Review from Gabriel Sabadin
We engaged SolveIt to develop a minimum viable product (MVP) app, including a user-friendly iOS design, an artificial intelligence (AI) model, and a monetization strategy while ensuring General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliance and preparing for future integrations. Despite a tight deadline, SolveIt delivered the app on time and efficiently handled beta-testing within three months, allowing us to gather feedback and launch successfully. We acquired our first 1,000 users within a month of launching the app. SolveIt's team communicated effectively, addressed issues proactively, and maintained a high level of autonomy, bringing diverse expertise that greatly benefited our project. We appreciate the agency's dedication and professionalism.

KitRUM made a variety of development services: conception, coding, and QA, which means almost a full software package for our company. We needed to develop a few tasks, for example, a desktop app for our store, a cloud app for administration and supervision, and a portable app for end customers. However, we had an in-house team, which is not enough for this project. So we had to find a dedicated team that could deliver all we needed. We found KitRUM as a top-notch software development company

Staff Augmentation Review from Sergey Novik
Were developing an internal image processing tool for our design team and needed two machine learning engineers, since our core developers were busy with other client projects. We required extra hands familiar with Python and computer vision, so after a developers market review, we hired them from SumatoSoft.The SumatoSoft developers joined our team and were able to swiftly adapt to our workflows, which resulted in them delivering the working models well before our hard deadline.Communication was straightforward throughout the engagement. We had video calls and exchanged brief text updates on a weekly basis. The delivered code is clean, and pull requests are well-documented.I appreciate that they pushed back on a few of our initial architecture ideas. They challenged our original approach and proposed a better method for handling the model weights. We plan to bring them back for the next phase of development.

Steve Molander's Review Sourced from Google
Oversight of our databases have always been a challenge. Finding the skillset to properly administer the systems is both difficult to find and high priced for a mid-sized organization. We reached out to Emergent to find out more about their virtual dba services. Their services sounded to be exactly what we needed. That was over 4 years ago. Since then we found Emergent to be a key partner in helping us in administration of our databases. Our systems are highly efficient, highly available and we feel secure knowing they are under the oversight of some amazingly skilled engineers.

Web Development Review from James Leonard Ehrlich, DVM
I wanted to outsource front end development while maintaining back end services myself.They started with existing React SPAs, cleaned them up, found and removed bugs, improved user interaction, made clear requests for new endpoints which I implemented and they tested and used.The time difference between my office in eastern USA and theirs in Moravia worked well, as we could meet at their afternoon/my morning and I had the rest of the day to deal with back end or questions they might have.Their professionalism and competency were impressive.I will continue working with them, for years, I hope, in maintenance mode or when we need to expand features.

Consumer IoT Review from Mason Ferlic
GripFusion is a sports technology startup developing Tactile Intelligence. Our flagship product, the ForceBall, is the first grip-sensing baseball. We approached Atomic Object with the challenge to build a React Native iPad app to connect with the embedded electronics over BLE and visualize sensor data in real time. Atomic stepped up to the plate and hit a home run! They took early R&D code and we're able to successfully navigate IoT challenges, large amounts of sensor data, and seamless UX. The developer team worked closely with our technical staff to incorporate evolving firmware and hardware improvements. The design team did hundreds of hours of user discovery and product feedback to ensure we deliver a cutting-edge experience. Overall, Atomic has the breadth and depth to tackle complex hardware-software systems.

Atomic Object is one of the best companies across the board in Michigan. Fantastic maker of custom-software solution and a model of organizational thought leadership. I've been working with the company in some capacity for nearly 20 years and learn something new in every interaction I've ever had.More than that, they are a value-centered organization that you will be proud to partner with. They've built this company the right way. An impactful community leader and employer of choice.

Rik Cordero's Review Sourced from Google
As a freelance Video Producer, I recently wrapped up another fun project with the folks over at Atomic Object, and I've gotta say, it was an experience worth mentioning. Collaborating with their marketing team on a series of authentic and engaging customer-facing and internal videos was nothing short of fantastic. Their seamless planning and logistics during pre-production, coupled with easy going personalities during production, made the process a breeze. Post-production brought our collective vision to life with meticulous story editing and videos that reflect their unique culture and values. Their team's dedication to kindness, empathy, and diversity made this collaboration not just successful, but truly enjoyable.

I've been working with True Fit Marketing for a few years and couldn't be happier. Recently, they suggested a fresh website update might be a good idea. We got to creating the new website and even a NEW logo color. Their team is so talented at what they do, so we just trusted them throughout the process. We couldn't be happier with the final product. Highly recommend!!!

My business is called Oasis Senior Advisors in the Pittsburgh area and I really like working with Arlea and the team at True Fit. They are very responsive with emails and are constantly looking to get more visibility with my Facebook page. They are very good with helping me with Facebook posts and are always looking for ways to post videos of me out and about in the community. We have monthly or every other month meetings to review statistics of google searches and how we've performed online as well as talk about what's coming in the future that they can help with. A very strong group and look forward to continuing to work with them.

5 Frequently Asked Questions About US Backend Development Companies
Which programming languages are most used by backend developers in the United States?
Backend development in the United States relies on several mature programming languages that support scalable APIs, cloud infrastructure, enterprise systems, and data-driven applications.
Language
Properties
Commonly used frameworks/Used for
Python
One of the most widely used languages for backend services, data platforms, and AI-powered applications.
Django
FastAPI
Flask
Java
One of the most widely used languages for enterprise backend systems, particularly in industries like finance, healthcare, and large SaaS platforms.
Spring Boot
JavaScript/Node.js
JavaScript is traditionally associated with frontend development.

Enterprise platforms
Internal business systems
Cloud services on Azure
Enterprise APIs
PHP
Widely used by PHP developers building web platforms, content management systems, and eCommerce backends.
Laravel
Symfony
The GitHub Octoverse 2024 report found that Python became the most used programming language on GitHub, overtaking JavaScript after more than a decade at the top.
According to recent hiring data, about 39.5% of recruiters are actively seeking a Java developer for their teams, making it one of the most in-demand skills in software development hiring.
The Stack Overflow Developer Survey 2025, which collected responses from tens of thousands of developers worldwide, reported that about 66% of developers use JavaScript, making it the most commonly used programming language overall.
What do US backend development companies do?
They design, build, and maintain the server-side systems that power modern digital products. The systems handle the logic, data processing, and infrastructure behind applications such as SaaS platforms, eCommerce websites, mobile apps, and enterprise software.
Build and maintain server-side application logic: Writing the server-side code that powers applications, processes requests from users, executes business logic, and returns results to the interface.
Design databases and manage application data: Creating and maintaining databases that store user accounts, product information, transactions, and analytics data. A backend engineer designs schemas, optimizes queries, and ensures fast data retrieval from systems such as SQL or NoSQL databases.
Develop Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and integrations: Building APIs that allow different systems to communicate. APIs connect web applications with mobile apps, payment gateways, cloud services, and third-party platforms.
Build scalable cloud infrastructure: Building infrastructure that can support millions of users and large volumes of data, including cloud architecture, containerized services, microservices platforms, and automated deployment pipelines.
Support security, performance, and reliability: Protecting data and ensuring applications run smoothly through authentication and access control, data encryption and security compliance, monitoring and error handling, and performance optimization.
Build and maintain complex software platforms: Building the core infrastructure behind SaaS platforms, fintech and payment systems, healthcare applications, enterprise business software, and eCommerce platforms.
When should a company hire a senior backend engineer or a staff backend engineer?
Businesses usually hire a senior backend engineer or staff backend engineer when their software systems become complex enough that architecture, scalability, and technical leadership matter more than simply writing code.
At that stage, experienced engineers help companies avoid costly technical mistakes and build systems that can scale reliably.
Businesses typically start needing staff backend engineers once their team expands to 50 or more engineers or when existing architecture cannot support growth in users or product features.
Hire a backend engineer when your:
The platform needs to scale to thousands or millions of users
The engineering team begins to grow
System architecture becomes a business bottleneck
Backend systems require advanced performance optimization
Modern backend systems increasingly rely on microservices, cloud infrastructure, and container platforms. In fact, about 75% of backend roles now require proficiency with cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud, reflecting the critical role scalable infrastructure plays.
How much does it cost to hire backend developers in the United States?
The cost of working with a backend development company in the USA varies widely depending on the project scope, the engineer's seniority, and the complexity of the software system being built.
Market benchmarks suggest the following rates:
Mid-level back-end developers: about $120-$160 per hour
Senior full-stack or backend engineers: around $130-$190 per hour
High-end enterprise engineering services: $300-$800 per hour for specialized projects and large consulting firms.
The mentioned rates are significantly higher than internal salaries because United States backend development companies also include project management, QA testing, DevOps, and infrastructure support within their pricing models.
Project pricing depends heavily on system complexity. Typical backend development budgets in the US market include:
Small backend service or MVP: $20,00-$80,000
SaaS platform backend: $80,000-$250,000
Enterprise or large-scale platform: $250,000-$1,000,000+
How long does a backend development project usually take?
The timeline for a backend development project depends on the platform's complexity, the number of required integrations, and the size of the engineering team.
Some backend systems require up to 800 hours of backend development work for core infrastructure alone, depending on the number of APIs, integrations, and database features implemented.
