Clear communication, realistic expectations, and consistent results. As a B2B business in a competitive market, we're seeing more quality leads while spending less on PPC.
Great Power BI training course. The content was clear and easy to follow, and the instructor provided helpful support throughout the course. I gained valuable knowledge and had a positive learning experience.
Great Power BI training course. The modules and support from the course leader were very helpful and well delivered. I really enjoyed the experience.
Great web design service from start to finish. They didn't only build what we asked for - they took the time to come and visit us, understand our business and suggest improvements that made the site much better. They have a real collaborative approach and are enjoyable to work with. Our site has been live three months and we're already seeing the investment paying back with incresed sales enquiries.
Very informative and enjoyable training course. Learned loads about DAX and data modelling, and I could have stayed for a week. It's delivered in a small group with plenty of hands-on experience, so you come away being able to actually build something useful rather than just following abstract examples. The follow-up support is handy too - I had a question a week later and they were really helpful with a quick reply that solved my problem.
We're very happy with Red Eagle Tech and the SEO service they provide. They explained everything clearly at the start, set realistic expectations, and keep on deliveing for us every month. We're a B2B company in a competitive niche, so not an easy job, but they're getting us quality leads and we're spending less on PPC. Very pleased.
Very happy with the website redesign that we commissioned from Red Eagle Tech. Our old site was in need of an update and Kat and her team completely rebuilt it. It’s mobile friendly, fast loading, and easy for us to keep up to date. We’re already getting more sales enquiries as a result. Professional team, quick turnaround and great quality work. Highly recommended.
Thanks Red Eagle Tech for helping me to upskill on Power BI. This masterclass exceeded my expectations. The curriculum is thoughtfully structured, with a good introduction of the solution from end-to-end, followed by a deeper dive through data modelling fundamentals, sophisticated DAX calculations and visual design principles. The instructor bridges theory and practice and you will learn the concepts by working through genuine business scenarios in the practical lab sessions. I have since recommended this training to colleagues as it’s a genuinely worthwhile professional development investment.
I run a boutique consultancy where SEO quality is extremely important as I’ve had issues with spammy links in the past. Red Eagle Tech completely understood the brief and are doing fantastic job for us. Our content strategy now positions us exactly where we want to be: authoritative, professional, visible to the right people. Enquiries have increased and our investment is paying for itself, so we’re very happy to continue our partnership with Red Eagle Tech and would recommend them without hesitation.
Red Eagle Tech delivered a clean, professional website that our customers find easy to navigate. The booking integration works perfectly. Very satisfied with it. Thanks Kat and team for your great work.
Traffic doubled in 6 months with Red Eagle Tech. Solid work, good communication, highly recommended.
I'm a researcher and needed to present data more effectively. The Power BI masterclass was excellent - covered everything from data cleaning to publication-quality visuals. The trainer was patient with questions and clearly experienced. Would definitely recommend for anyone needing to up their data game.
Really good training course, thanks Red Eagle Tech. I learned loads about data transformation, creating proper relationships between tables and transforming the data into a star schema, which makes it so much easier to create data visualisations that really work well for my projects. The training is top notch – can’t recommend enough.
As someone who was intimidated by data visualisation, this course was perfect. It started with basics and built up to some really impressive stuff. The practical exercises they provide are excellent - and quite challenging! I've learned a lot and I'm already using Power BI daily in my marketing role.
I’ve been in business 25 years so I’ve seen most of the SEO snake oil tactics. Kat and her team at Red Eagle Tech are different – down to earth, easy to work with, honest and open about how they work and what is achievable. I’ve been with them for nearly 12 months and I’m really happy with the results. Our organic leads have increased significantly and we’re spending less on paid ads as a result. They’re now handling our website updates too, which works really well as everything is handled by the same team. Refreshingly straightforward people to deal with and I would highly recommend them.
As a busy Operations Director I needed to get a handle on our data across multiple sites. The Power BI Masterclass was exactly what I needed – practical, business-focused, and no unnecessary padding. I built my first dashboard immediately after the course and my colleagues and I are extremely happy with the results. Worth every penny.
Good solid training. Comprehensive coverage of Power BI capabilities and the trainer clearly knew the subject inside out. I learned a great deal and have implemented several dashboards at my firm. The practical exercises are a big part of this course – it’s really hands on. I learned a lot. Would definitely recommend as an intensive introduction to Power BI. Even if you haven’t used it before, you can come away from this course being able to build real working solutions.
I am extremely sorry to Red eagle techI thought this was red eagle buses, I have deleted my reviews and given a 5 stars.Sorry,Henry
We receive a high volume of emails daily from customers and suppliers and my team was spending around 2-3 hours each day sorting through these and pulling out order details, delivery notes etc involving a lot of time-consuming work. They set up an AI-based automation solution that handles the sorting and data extraction. They understood our needs well and communication was good throughout.
Whilst integrity and veracity are in short supply these days, Red Eagle Tech has it in spades. You can trust these guys. I bought my Microsoft 365 licences from them, and they went out of their way to make the transactions as smooth as possible.
Very happy with the new website they built for us. I'll be honest I didn't think a new site would make as much difference as it has, because the majority of our work comes through word of mouth. Our previous site was about 8 years old and definitely in need of an overhaul. We got chatting to Kat about it and they did a full redesign plus ongoing SEO services. I don't fully understand all the technicalities of it, but what they did is working because we're coming up on Google for searches we never appeared in before and we had 10 enquiries through the website last month, whereas before that we'd get maybe 1 or 2 a year through the site, so it's been worthwhile for sure.
Red Eagle Tech built us a bespoke CRM solution and we're really happy with how it works. We tried two different CRMs before this and neither were completely suitable for how we actually sell. We had stopped using the software and reverted to spreadsheets. Now everyone in our team is onboarded to the new soltion and we're very happy with it. It's fast, easy to use and it does what we need. Support is good, Kat and the team are always on hand to help with issues or questions.
Best business I’ve ever dealt with, these guys know their stuff. 10/10 service, I couldn’t be happier.
We're a creative agency and our IT was, I would say, a bit chaotic. We were cobbling together different services and nothing talked to anything else. Since working with Red Eagle in 2024, it's been a huge turnaround. Their managed IT services are flawless and the security-first approach gave us peace of mind. But more importantly they helped us use tech to drive our business forwards and achieve our goals. For example we now have real time, actionable data on project profitability and we're using it to make better business decisions. The team is collaborative, energetic and genuinely invested in our success.
Our engagement with Red Eagle Tech was driven by a need to consolidate disparate data sources and improve operational efficiency. The primary objective was to develop a unified reporting system. Their team designed and implemented a comprehensive Business Intelligence solution that integrated our CRM, accounting and project management data. As a result we reduced time spent on manual reporting by approximately 12 hours per week. The solution is robust, secure and user friendly, requiring minimal training for our staff.
Huge thanks to Kat and the Team at Red Eagle Tech, you've been an invaluable asset to our organisation. We engaged them for their vCTO services to assist with our tech roadmap and vendor selection and the guidance provided was insightful and pragmatic. They demonstrated a deep understand of our business objectives and helped us align our investments accordingly. Their team is knowledgeagble, resourceful and maintain a professional and trustworthy approach. We wholeheartedly recommend their services to any SME seeking to leverage technology for strategic advantage.
The bespoke Business Intelligence solution they delivered is intuitive and has already provided invaluable insights into our operations. The team is knowledgeable, collaborative, and a pleasure to work with. Thanks Kat and team. We look forward to working with you more in the future!
They're trustworthy and they know their stuff! Built us a fantastic website. Thanks Red Eagle Tech.
Great deal on software licenses from these guys, quick fulfilment and good service. Thanks!
I cannot say enough good things about Red Eagle Tech. Before we found them, our IT really needed attention. From the first call, Kat and the team were engaged, professional, and just got it. They now handle our day to day IT needs and it's worth every penny. A true partner, not just a supplier.
The folks at Read Eagle deliver. They understood our requirements and business strategy and started prototyping our new custom app at lightning speed. The end result is slick.
Outstanding work from start to finish. Investment's already paid for itself. These guys rock. We'll be back for more.
Red Eagle has proven to be an exceptional Technology partner that truly understands what it means to provide reliable, innovative, and customer-focused technology solutions. Their team is highly skilled, responsive, and consistently goes above and beyond to ensure every project is delivered with quality and precision. Stef and Kat are always a pleasure to work with. They genuinely care about long-term client success. We highly commend Red Eagle!
Working with Kat, Stef, and the whole team at Red Eagle Tech has been a brilliant experience from start to finish. They’ve supported us across multiple digital projects, and every time they’ve delivered solutions that genuinely make our business more efficient while also saving us money. Whenever we bring them a new idea, they approach it with total openness, fresh thinking, and a real understanding of what we’re trying to achieve. They grasp the assignment straight away and always offer smart suggestions that strengthen the final result. Everything with them is transparent, communication, process, and especially pricing. You can tell they know exactly what they’re doing, and their expertise shows in how smoothly each project runs. On top of that, they’re incredibly easy to work with, which makes the whole experience even better.
Thank you, Red Eagle Tech, for delivering a user-friendly platform for collecting sales enquiries from prospective customers. I can say that working with your team has been an outstanding experience. You understood our requirements in detail and produced a great product that gives customers a good impression and is bringing in more sales to our business. Highly recommended. A team of software developers that actually deliver! Thanks again.

Why local bespoke software development matters
Face-to-face when it matters
Critical project phases like requirements discovery, design reviews, and complex problem-solving benefit from in-person collaboration. We're just a tube ride away.
Local market knowledge
We understand London's business environment, customer preferences, and regulatory landscape. This context helps us build software that fits your market.
UK legal protections
Working with a UK-based company means clear legal jurisdiction, UK GDPR compliance built-in, and no complications with overseas contracts.
Same timezone, same hours
No waiting until the next day for responses. We work UK business hours and can respond quickly when issues arise.
Reputation accountability
We're part of London's business community. Our reputation matters here, which means we're incentivised to deliver excellent work and maintain long-term relationships.
Fixed-price bespoke software for London
Budget certainty from day one
Unlike many London agencies that bill by the hour and leave you guessing about final costs, we provide fixed-price quotes on most projects.
This means you know exactly what you'll pay before we write a single line of code. If the project takes us longer than expected, we absorb the difference. Your budget is protected.
How we prevent scope creep
The key is thorough discovery. We invest significant time upfront understanding your requirements in detail, documenting everything clearly, and getting your approval before development begins. This disciplined approach is how we can offer fixed prices with confidence.

Frequently asked questions about bespoke software in London
Absolutely. We're based at Prospect House in North London (N20 9AE) and welcome face-to-face meetings, especially for initial discovery and key project milestones.
You're welcome to visit us at our office, or we can come to your premises or meet at a convenient location in London. Many clients prefer in-person meetings for requirements discovery and design reviews, then switch to video calls for regular progress updates.
No - we work with clients across the UK and internationally. However, our North London base makes us particularly accessible for London businesses who value local partnership.
For clients outside London, we use video conferencing for regular communication and can travel for important meetings when needed. The quality of our work is the same regardless of location.
We're competitively priced for London. Small automations start from just £2,000, and most growing businesses invest £15,000 to £75,000. We offer fixed-price quotes that protect your budget, so you know exactly what you'll pay before we start.
Unlike agencies that bill hourly and leave you guessing about final costs, we provide clear pricing upfront. Many clients find this budget certainty more valuable than chasing the lowest hourly rate, which often leads to unexpected overruns.
Yes, we work with both. London's startup ecosystem is thriving, and we regularly help early-stage companies build their first products.
For startups, we often start with MVP development - building the minimum viable product needed to validate your idea and attract investment. For established businesses, we typically work on more comprehensive systems or integration projects. Our fixed-price approach works well for both.
We can typically arrange an initial discovery meeting within a week. After that, project timelines depend on our current workload and your requirements complexity.
Most projects begin development within 2-4 weeks of initial contact, once we've completed discovery and you've approved our fixed-price quote. If you have urgent requirements, let us know and we'll do our best to accommodate.
With our fixed-price model, you're fully protected, regardless of project size.
Many London agencies charge hourly, leaving you exposed to overruns. We work differently: if we underestimate the work, we absorb the difference, not you. Industry research shows that only 59% of IT projects stay within budget, with average overruns of 75%. One in six projects exceeds 200% of the original estimate. That's why we invest heavily in upfront discovery, often conducted face-to-face at our North London office, so we can offer fixed prices with confidence.
London's freelance developer market is competitive, with day rates typically ranging from £400 to £700. For smaller projects, a freelancer can work well.
But for business-critical software, an agency provides a complete team. Not just developers, but designers, QA testers, and project managers. If someone is ill or leaves, work doesn't stop; we have backup. We carry professional indemnity insurance, handle IR35 compliance for you, and offer ongoing support contracts. London freelancers also carry single-point-of-failure risk: if they become unavailable, your project stops entirely. With an agency like ours, work continues regardless.
Yes, and we recommend it. Our office at Prospect House (N20 9AE) has a dedicated meeting room set up for discovery workshops, design reviews and stakeholder sessions.
The room has whiteboards, a large display for screen-sharing or presenting wireframes, video conferencing for remote stakeholders, and refreshments. Most clients find that the discovery and design phases benefit most from being in the room together. After that, fortnightly progress reviews work well over video call. We're a short walk from Totteridge & Whetstone tube on the Northern line, with parking available nearby.
From our North London office to most Central London business districts is 30 to 45 minutes door to door by tube.
Typical journey times from Totteridge & Whetstone (our nearest station): around 25 minutes to King's Cross, 35 minutes to Liverpool Street, 35 minutes to Bond Street and 40 minutes to London Bridge. We're happy to come to your office for kick-off meetings, key milestones or stakeholder sessions where being in the room matters. For day-to-day collaboration we use video calls, which most clients find more productive than recurring on-site visits.
Yes. London is a major startup hub and we regularly work with companies at seed and Series A, particularly in FinTech, HealthTech and PropTech.
For early-stage companies the conversation usually starts with what's the minimum viable product needed to validate the idea, demonstrate traction or unlock the next funding round. We can deliver MVPs from £25,000 with a clear path to scale once product-market fit is proven. We're comfortable working with founders, technical co-founders and CTOs, and we explain technical decisions in plain English when there's no internal technical lead. We're not the right fit for pure equity-only arrangements, however.
