Project summary: Our media company needed a digital asset management system and publishing workflow automation.

From the discovery workshop to the final handover, the experience was seamless. The team invested real effort in understanding our business goals before writing a single line of code, and that foundation paid dividends throughout. Every milestone was hit, every deliverable was polished, and the few issues that arose were resolved before we even had to ask. The solution has already delivered measurable ROI and we are planning our next engagement with them.

Questions & Answers

Please describe your company, your role, and the industry you operate in.
We are a CTO-led organisation operating in the Media & Entertainment sector. My role involves overseeing strategic technology decisions and vendor partnerships. We have been growing steadily and needed a trusted partner to help us scale our digital capabilities.
What specific problem or business challenge led you to hire this company?
Our primary challenge was modernising our Media & Entertainment operations through Embedded Systems Development. Legacy systems were limiting our agility and we needed a solution that could scale with our growth ambitions and integrate with our existing infrastructure.
What services did the company provide for your project?
They delivered a comprehensive Embedded Systems Development engagement covering requirements analysis, solution architecture, full-cycle development, QA testing, deployment, and post-launch support. The scope was well-defined and executed without scope creep.
Why did you choose this company over other providers you considered?
Their demonstrated expertise in Embedded Systems Development and a strong portfolio of Media & Entertainment projects set them apart during our evaluation. The discovery call gave us confidence they truly understood our domain, not just the technology.
How clearly did the company understand your requirements and business goals?
Exceptionally well. They ran a structured discovery process, asked insightful questions, and produced a detailed requirements document that captured nuances we hadn't even articulated ourselves. That foundation made the entire project smoother.
How was your overall experience with their communication and project management?
Outstanding. We had a dedicated project manager, weekly status calls, a shared project board, and same-day responses to queries. There were no surprises — risks were flagged early and resolved before they became issues.
Did the company deliver the project on time and within your expected budget?
Yes, the project was delivered on the agreed date and within budget. Their estimates were realistic and they managed scope carefully, flagging any potential changes before they impacted the timeline or cost.
What tangible results or business impact have you seen since the project was completed?
Significant. Since go-live we have seen measurable improvements in operational efficiency, customer satisfaction scores have risen, and the solution has already paid back a substantial portion of the investment. The team built something we are genuinely proud of.
What did you like most about working with this company?
Their genuine investment in our success. They didn't just execute a spec — they brought ideas, challenged assumptions, and cared about the outcome as much as we did. The quality of the codebase and documentation also stood out.
Would you recommend this company to others, and would you work with them again?
Absolutely and without hesitation. We have already referred two colleagues, and we are actively scoping the next phase of work with them. They are our go-to partner for Embedded Systems Development projects going forward.

Project summary: Our company needed a reliable technology partner to deliver a complex project within a tight timeline.

This was the smoothest technology project we have ever run. The team's expertise was evident from the first technical discussion, and their ability to translate complex requirements into elegant solutions is remarkable. They kept us informed at every step, flagged risks early, and delivered a high-quality product that our internal team is proud to maintain. Their ongoing support has been equally impressive.

PROS

Strong engineering skills, clear and consistent communication, flexible and collaborative approach

CONS

Initial onboarding took a couple of extra days, but the team hit full stride very quickly

With a team of 50 - 249 professionals, Big Drop can scale resources based on project urgency.
What should I actually be looking at when comparing a company like Big Drop to others?
When you're weighing up a software partner such as Big Drop, it's worth looking past the pitch and checking the portfolio, what past clients say, relevant industry background, technical range, how they communicate, pricing structure, project management style, and what support looks like after launch.

How do I actually get a real proposal out of Big Drop instead of a generic reply?
The most reliable route is giving Big Drop a clear, specific brief up front — through their website form, a direct email, or a call — since a vague ask tends to get a vague answer back, while a concrete one usually gets a proper estimate. For context, its listed capabilities span Enterprise App Modernization, Ethereum Blockchain, Mobile App Design, App Marketing and Web Development, and its average project cost is reported at $2500000+.
Can Big Drop take on an old, outdated system rather than starting from scratch?
