Web Design Review from David Sterling
We brought in Creative Brand Design to support the launch of a new sub-brand and they delivered exactly what we were after a visually engaging, well-structured site thats helped us make a confident move into a new area of the market. Communication was clear, timelines were kept to, and they were easy to deal with throughout. A little more structure around the CMS handover wouldve been helpful, but support was there when needed. Would happily recommend.

Mobile App Development Review from Guiulianna Cespedes
Our company needed an Android app that could support a mental health platform in a way that felt calm, easy to use, and dependable for daily users. We hired Simpalm to build that product in Kotlin and help us move from concept into something real customers could use. For us, trust and simplicity mattered more than packing in too many features.They took a fairly hands-on role, which was helpful because we were still making product decisions as the project moved. Some weeks I was deeply involved reviewing screens, and other weeks they pushed things forward on their own. That balance worked well. They would usually come back with two or three options instead of just asking what we wanted.We did hit one rough patch around notifications where the first version didn’t behave the way we expected, so that had to be revisited. They fixed it without making the process difficult.The finished app runs smoothly, feels organized, and gave us a much stronger mobile presence on Android. Most importantly, early users found it approachable rather than overwhelming, which was exactly what we wanted.
Mobile App Development Review from Amanda Chalofsky
My experience with Simpalm was very good. They made a full prototype of our neuro-wellness app so we could show partners and investors what our system looks like. It matched our brand and showed the flow in a simple way. Their communication was steady, they stayed on time, and they explained things clearly. The prototype helped people understand our idea fast, and it moved our project forward. I felt supported the whole time.
Mobile App Development Review from Matt Rudnick
Working with Simpalm has been a really positive experience. We hired them to handle the frontend development of our mobile app for iOS and Android, while our backend was already in place. From the start, their team communicated clearly, stayed organized, and met every deadline we set. They were flexible when we added new features, and their designer’s input really helped improve the look and usability of the app. I appreciated how reliable and easy they were to work with having a U.S.-based team made communication smooth and fast.

Nonprofit Review from Jhumpa Bhattacharya
As a nonprofit, we've worked with Storm Brain for just over a year. The unique demands of nonprofits can be challenging, yet this company has shown great patience, adaptability, and cooperation. While no company is flawless, clear communication with them leads to excellent results. Thanks, Storm Brain, for your dedication!
Digital Marketing Review from Jake Brennan
Storm Brain provided our e-commerce business significant results. We were really flattening out when it came to engagement and finding them was a serious game changer. They enhanced our SEO, helped us re-brand our product, drove sales through digital marketing campaigns and provided quality design for our site. If you're looking for a company that is easy to work with and incredibly professional / knowledgeable, look no further. We recommend them to the fullest, especially after being let down by so many other establishments. Storm Brain for the win!

Software Development Review from Jake Mackay
For quite a long time we took orders by e-mail or personally from customers. It took a lot of time, as we either made layouts by hand or printed them according to the vague requirements of clients. All these difficulties have pushed us to take a step towards the digital transformation of our business. The team of Five Jars has developed a frontend and backend for our web tool to create print layouts. The team is not afraid to take on difficult tasks!
Responsive Review from Anthony North
I was looking for companies that had experience with large educational platforms. There are some really big players in the eLearning market in Five Jars' portfolio, so I trusted their development experience. After all our platform has become more attractive to users. Over the past year, we have noticed a significant increase in daily visits, so much so that we even had to change hosting. Five Jars helped us with that too!
Small Business Review from Colin Knox
I'm satisfied with the MVP we've done with the Five Jars team. I am currently looking for an investor for this project. I love working with professionals when I don't have to dive into a whole area that I don't know. Working with the Five Jars was a real partnership where the other side fulfilled their obligations without my constant checks.

PBJ Marketing went above and beyond to not only meet but exceed our expectations. The partnership has had a significant and lasting impact on our business, and we couldnt be more satisfied.
Google Ads Review from Eugene Ravitsky
Ad spend increased dramatically and cost per conversion skyrocketed. They claimed because revenue was increasing that they did their job. We add new brands weekly so revenue was growing before and after them. Cost per conversion/ROAS went into the dumps and we were unprofitable. Yet they still use us as a success case study on their website. Since then google reps took over and overhauled the structure of the campaign, saying it was clunky and wrong.

Sito Pons's Review Sourced from Google
We just wrapped up a several-month project with the team at Kodexo Labs Austin and they were fantastic to work with. The project was complex, but they stayed patient, responsive, and super professional the whole time. Their team made everything feel smooth and well-organized, and the end result really speaks for itself. Definitely one of the best software development companies in Austin and we're already planning our next project with them.
Sean Peterson's Review Sourced from Google
Worked with Kodexo Labs Austin on a custom app for our delivery service, and they really impressed me. We wanted to integrate some AI features to predict delivery times and optimize routes they not only made it happen, but explained the tech in a way that actually made sense. Communication was smooth, no BS, and they stuck to the timeline. If you need mobile app development in Austin, especially anything AI-related, I’d definitely recommend them.

We had a very positive experience with Kitely and are very satisfied with their customer service as well as the product they delivered. I would definitely recommend them!
John V's Review Sourced from Google
My personal experience with kitely tech, has been unproductive to say the least. Yes, Jason is very responsive and answers every question and returns calls prominently. He portrays kitely tech as a large firm with offices in several states but as we found out that is not the case. When our team asked to meet with the entire marketing team and developers they were not available. I advise meeting with entire development team at clark office what is just a share office space with a small mail box with company name on it. I describe doing business with kitely tech similar to being "cat fished" online . The unethical business practices by Jason caused timely delays with projects promised by a certain deadline. I lost of thousands of dollars and misrepresenting a large marketing firm based in the U.S. when in fact all the work is outsource to india.
Owen Deutsch's Review Sourced from Google
Overall the experience with Kitely was very good. The web developers overall did wonderful work. Though sometimes things may not be done as fast as both they and the client may want, the work they do is gold. I have had other poor experiences with other web development companies and Kitely was certainly the best. When errors were made on Kitely's end or if I did not communicate all my ideas correctly, they were on top of it to fix the mistakes and if something on my website broke unexpectedly, they were on top of fixing it. If you have an idea, they are likely able to create code for it. They did a great job bringing some innovative things to life, but more in depth ideas may take a little more time to finish than anticipated. I would recommend Kitely to people looking to build a site from scratch.
