UI/UX Design Review from Justimiano Alves
I have had the pleasure of working with Nabeel Ahmed for over a year as the lead designer responsible for the complete digital branding of JLRecharge and the UI/UX design across all our web and mobile applications.Throughout our collaboration, Nabeel has consistently demonstrated exceptional creativity, strategic thinking, and a deep understanding of modern design standards. His branding direction remains fresh, relevant, and aligned with current market expectations even more than a year later. That level of timeless design thinking is rare.Beyond aesthetics, Nabeel understands product logic. His UI/UX decisions are not only visually compelling but also user-centered, intuitive, and conversion-driven. He approaches every project with professionalism, structure, and clear communication. Deadlines are always respected, and revisions are handled thoughtfully and efficiently.What truly sets Nabeel apart is his balance between creativity and discipline. He listens carefully, provides multiple options when needed, explains his reasoning, and contributes meaningfully to the overall product strategy not just the visuals.He is also a genuinely kind and easy person to work with, which makes long-term collaboration both productive and enjoyable.I highly recommend Nabeel Ahmed to any business seeking high-quality branding and professional UI/UX design for web or mobile applications. He brings both talent and reliability a combination that delivers real business value.

Patrick Vennebush's Review Sourced from Google
When our educator portal needed a makeover, Workhorse provided the solution. After a thorough discovery process, they explicitly detailed what was possible and provided a realistic plan to make it happen. With fantastic design and world-class project management, they created a site that exceeded our expectations. Teachers in the schools and districts that use our curriculum have described it as "amazing," "exceptional," and "such a wonderful improvement." Moreover, their team was transparent, professionalism, and -- dare I say it -- fun throughout the process. Workhorse was the right company for this project, and selecting Workhorse was one of the best decisions we've made, and anyone in need of web design should talk to them first.
Natalie Foster's Review Sourced from Google
Workhorse has taken the time to truly understand our product in a short amount of time and guide us to understand the best way to present a huge amount of content to our users in a digestible and intuitive way.We had an aggressive timeline, and the number of features we were able to provide user for our MVP release is highly commendable. This would not have been achievable without the level of partnership and commitment to our customers that Workhorse exhibited. Special thanks to the project management team who expertly navigated us through any challenge. The development leads were extremely flexible and their problem-solving always helped us align on the needed solutions.
Claudia Prindle's Review Sourced from Google
The team at Workhorse was super helpful in designing a website for our company. They were able to make our exact visions a reality and were super responsive to our requests. The team was super accommodating and made the process very seamless. I would heavily recommend Workhorse to anyone who wants to make a spectacular website!

The Sher Agency has been an amazing partner in getting our brand and website put together.The team there, including Samantha, Nicolas, Axel, Joseph, and Max, have been incredibly responsive and helpful every step of the way. They've handled all our requests, big or small, and quickly sorted out everything from launch approvals and technical details to website management and checkout features.Thanks to their support, we were able to take an idea and turn it both a company and a truly beautiful brand. Everything looks amazing and we're so excited to be live!
Sj Shah's Review Sourced from Google
I came across the owner, Max, on Instagram. Watching his videos, I knew that he understood not only that a website should look good, but that it should be able to take your website visitor on a journey to take the next step. In my case, to schedule a call.After 1 meeting with him, I knew that Sher Agency was the right fit for the job of redesigning my site.Working with the project manager Sammy, and the designer Leah was so smooth. They took the time to understand the message I wanted to convey and aligned both the design and text copy. Not once did they complain or argue with me when I wanted a change - essentially never letting me feel like I was being a pain (which in many cases I was - cause I’m a stickler for details).The new website has now launched and I’m already seeing in uptick in the time peopleSpend on my site and the number of calls that I am getting. I have now chosen to hire them to help me with search engine optimization.Great Team. Great Experience. Great Work!
Maneva Group's Review Sourced from Google
We just started working with Sher Agency this year, but it has been a wonderful experience so far. Led by Sammy and Leah, they designed and launched a new website for us that is a phenomenal upgrade. The look is modern, the language is clear and direct, and it matches the vision we gave them very well. Please note that this process will take time - it took 2.5 to 3 months for ours. I was under the false impression that it would be faster.Axel has been working with us on updates since then, and he is as responsive as anyone I have ever worked with. We had some immediate changes that needed to be made, and he jumped on them the same day until everything was correct.Bum-Soo has started working on our Google Ads, and he knows his stuff. He suggested some great changes and explained clearly why they were needed. The results of Google Ads and SEO are yet to be seen - I will have a better idea after a few months.This team is professional, hungry to do a good job, and provides excellent service overall. They are pricey - but there is a HUGE difference between their work and what you get hiring someone for a lot less on Fiverr. Would recommend.

If you need any marketing help or web design look no further. Level Nine Media is who you need. Rob communicated with us every step of the way with what he was doing. He ran a check to see what we needed updated and turned out our website needed a complete overhaul haul. Before Rob took over our website we would get maybe 2-3 inquiries a day. Now my phone doesn’t stop ringing! I get about 6-7 calls a day and we get even more inquiries through our website. We have had our new sight about a month now and Rob even sent us our new numbers and it’s astonishing how much more traction we have! Thank you Rob for building us a website that is amazing and attractive to new clients!

Absolute professionalism and expertise.We reached out Rob to create us a new website. He scheduled a call with us and listened to how we run our business and how he could reflect our passion to our website. THE SAME DAY IT WAS LAUNCHED, we had started to receive new requests for caterings and we have seen almost 100% growth with our website reach. We cannot thank the team over at Level Nine Media enough. We will be reaching out to them to create our next website!

Shortlist Austin web development companies by focusing on budget fit and the type of websites they’ve built, before you look at design work.
Most people start with portfolios, even though visuals alone don't show whether a team can turn a client's vision into a working site, on time.
Here’s a simple way to do it:
Once you’re down to 4-5 solid options, then design quality becomes a useful differentiator.
If two web development companies in Austin look equally great on paper, compare how they treat you during the sales process.
Here's what to guide you:
Start with a pilot project if you can. It's the safer way to see how the developer works before you start redoing the whole site.
A pilot should be small, but real. Not a mockup or a demo. Ask for one of these:
Whatever you pick, make sure it has a clear deliverable and a deadline.
You can evaluate an agency without technical knowledge by judging how they communicate and prove their claims.
Here's how to do that:
Before signing a web development contract, make sure it clearly defines ownership, scope boundaries, payment milestones, and exit terms.
Contracts are where most hidden risks surface after work has already begun.
Review these terms closely:

Austin web development companies charge $100 to $200 per hour, and a typical business website project runs from $8,000 to $25,000. Statewide, Austin is the priciest market in Texas for web development.
Overall, pricing varies based on what you're building:
| Project type | Average cost |
| Basic business website | $8,000 to $15,000 |
| Advanced business site | $15,000 to $25,000 |
| Custom web app | $40,000 to $120,000+ |
Lower-cost builds typically include a template design, standard CMS setup, and a handful of pages. Higher costs usually come from:
A standard web development package covers discovery, design, development, and testing, usually with a defined support period after launch.
Here is what most web development services in Austin include:
SEO and content creation are the two most underestimated costs in web development. A technically solid site that isn't optimized for search or populated with quality topical content will struggle to generate traffic no matter how well it performs.
Other common add-ons include:
You likely need a rebuild instead of a redesign when the underlying system limits performance or functionality, even if the design still looks acceptable.
A redesign is usually enough when the structure is solid, but the visual design or user experience needs improvement.
You need a new website if:
A redesign is usually enough if:
The biggest red flags when evaluating Austin web developers are unclear technical processes and lack of ownership transparency.
Keep an eye out for these other warning signs:
You will be able to manage the website yourself after launch if the CMS is configured properly and the agency provides training and documentation.
Most Austin web development companies design websites to be easily maintained by non-technical teams without developer help.
This usually includes:
Important note: technical updates, integrations, or system changes will still require developer support.
Yes, web development projects can go over budget even after approval when the original scope does not fully account for technical complexity or changes during the build process.
This is common, especially on custom builds.
Typical reasons for budget increases are:
