Our company is planning to outsource IoT software development project and is confused which company to hire from plethora of such companies. We have checked reviews of many companies, most of them had positive reviews and they charge almost same, so getting confused. The list you have prepared has somewhat made our task easier to choose from these 10 best companies.
Recently, we hired http://mokriya.com and they did remarkable job in IoT app development. You must consider this company to include in this list.
Had a superb experience with XIM Inc. Their developers are experienced and skillful, customer support is helpful, amazing project managers, quick turnaround time. What else you need when you outsource your project.
Glad to see Imperium Apps in the list. I have worked with them in the past and was satisfied with the end product they given me
Agreed with you David. TechMagic deserves to be in 10 best IoT development companies list. I’m saying this because of my personal experience with them.
Worked with Nextware Tech and got completely satisfied. I will hire them again. I may consider to try other companies given in this list
I think you should also include Fingent Technologies because this company is better than others. Because They don’t charge any kind of hidden charges like others company and they will support you in your project also.
Include http://tramharbour.com – these Ukrainians really know what they do. They do hardware prototyping as well, not only software.
Thanks for sharing such useful information.
