Web Development Review from Jaroslav Tyman Jr.
We contacted Zero Negative about a two stage renewal of our company website with a very aggressive timeline for the first stage. Zero Negative worked and guided us through pulling off the first stage within our timeline while also ensuring that the content and ideas for that stage were readily applicable to the full design. When we got to the full design, they were fully responsible for corralling the various preferences and ideas from our team into a well executed cohesive site. We're now in a good spot and look forward to continuing to work with Zero Negative as our business and needs grow.
Web Development Review from Susan E. Roberts
Zero Negative did an exceptional job designing my website, roberts-communications.com. From the start, they understood that this wasn't just about aesthetics it was about positioning, credibility, and clarity for a senior-level communications brand.They translated a complex, high-stakes business into a site that feels polished, modern, and authoritative without being flashy or over designed. The process was collaborative, efficient, and thoughtful, and they were responsive to feedback while also offering smart guidance when it mattered.The final result reflects exactly how I want Roberts Communications to be perceived: strategic, sophisticated, and trusted. I would highly recommend Zero Negative to anyone looking for a design partner who understands brand, not just web building.
Web Development Review from Anonymous
These guys are the best! We engaged with Zero Negative to develop a comprehensive web-based system for our factory that allows for managing orders, processes, and inventory. This initiative was essential for us to secure a big ticket client. We truly could not have accomplished this without their assistance. They dedicated considerable time to on-boarding and collecting the requisite information, followed by prototyping the software, and ultimately developing it from scratch. Overall, we are very satisfied.

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.
Website Redesign Review from Michael Wilson
Digis is redesigning our website to a magento based platform to migrate from a Wordpress based platform. Key deliverables include a full discovery document to determine and outline the scope of the work and the magento platform with custom development to fit our needs.Everything has been delivered on time. 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.

Mobile App Development Review from Numaan Shaikh
I had an excellent experience working with Apptunix. Their team was professional, responsive, and delivered a high-quality app that met all our requirements. They were great at understanding our vision and transforming it into a user-friendly, functional product. Communication was seamless throughout the process, and they provided valuable insights that improved the overall design. Highly recommend them for anyone looking to develop an innovative and reliable mobile app!
Mobile App Development Review from Tim Nguyen
Warning: Avoid Apptunix (apptunix.com) If you're considering hiring offshore developers, especially from India, I want to share a warning about Apptunix (apptunix.com) and its CEO. My company worked with them on a development project, investing close to $40K, only to have them hold our code hostage and demand more money before releasing it.We entered into the project with clear expectations and milestones, but as we progressed, Apptunix consistently delayed, under-delivered, and eventually refused to hand over the work we had already paid for unless we agreed to pay more. This kind of behavior is nothing short of extortion. It seems like their CEO and leadership are more interested in squeezing money out of clients than delivering quality work.Beyond the financial frustration, the skill level and talent from this team were not up to par. The development work was substandard, full of bugs, and lacked the quality we expected for the investment we made. I strongly urge anyone considering offshore development to do your due diligence or, better yet, reconsider offshore development altogether, as the experience in some regions, particularly India, seems to be in decline.
Mobile App Development Review from Will Thomas
We were creating a software in the health care environment. It was a software for publishers to improve their revenue by making a dynamic inventory on their side and getting more income out of their advertising. We needed help with the recruitment of an outsourced, part-time frontend developer with broad experience and availability.

My experiences with PATH have been excellent. They are one of the most responsive agencies I have ever worked with and they are very clear about their insights even if it does not put them in the best of light.

Web Design Review from Brian Yokely
It isn't often that you find a partner like Big Drop and I cannot recommend their fantastic team highly enough. Projects like ours are no small feats and their dedication to producing a successful outcome for us is unparalleled by other agencies. In addition to superior project management, their creative and strategic teams leveraged our brand to develop an aesthetic that is absolutely first-in-class, with functionality to match, and we couldn't have done it without them. I look forward to expanding our collaboration in the future. We needed a website refresh, and Big Drop helped us produce the best possible product. The team's professionalism and expertise were evident throughout the project, resulting in a website that exceeded our expectations. Working with Big Drop was a smooth and productive experience, and we were thrilled with the outcome of our collaboration.
Branding Review from Michele Zappula
Big Drop 100% gets who we are and what we need and we trust them completely. Their creative process is iterative and comprehensive, and have become a true extension of our team who has been fortunate to work with their top talent. We are consistently impressed by how well Big Drop brings forward concepts and ideas that have evolved our products and brand, and together, we have delivered some truly amazing items. I have been waiting to work with them, and it has easily been worth the wait. Working with Big Drop was instrumental in refining our brand identity and creating new digital properties. The agency polished our main brand and refreshed two sub-brands. It also developed four new digital assets. The team's creative vision and ability to interpret our goals were pivotal in achieving our desired outcomes. Big Drop's flexibility, knowledge, and commitment ensured it made adjustments to suit our specific needs.

Web App Review from Michael Paskow
Dogtown media helped to develop a new cross-platform app and web portal for a sleep health study involving insomniacs for the National Sleep Foundation. The team was reliable and developed an excellent experience for end-users. It has been a great experience working with DTM. The team is reliable and communicative. They come up with creative solutions and are always available for any and all maintenance issues that arise. Although I am not well-versed in pricing for app development, I do feel that the pricing may have been a little too steep. That said, the work they have produced is excellent, and I'm very happy I got to work with the team at DTM.
Call Centers Review from John Shammas
We've really enjoyed the time spent with Dogtown and their support in our product initiatives. They have always been readily available to talk through design ideas, technical challenges, or feature improvements. Communication has always been solid, with a reliable stream of beta builds (delivered to our own devices to test out) and detailed patch notes. We look forward to working with Dogtown on more projects in the future!
