Budget burned, nothing delivered
Paid a solo dev upfront six months ago and got maybe 30% of what was promised. Now I'm back to square one and need proper software development services with some accountability. Anyone dealt with something similar and found a team that actually delivers?

Been there. A friend and I paid a freelancer for an internal tool, and after months of excuses we had half-finished code that barely worked. We eventually switched to a team because we needed regular updates and someone actually responsible for deadlines. We found digital transformation services , and the experience was much smoother. Having a structured process made a huge difference compared to chasing one person.
“Budget burned, nothing delivered” is one of those situations everyone runs into at least once — whether it’s a project, marketing campaign, or some outsourced work that looked good on paper but fell apart in execution. At that point it’s less about the money and more about the trust and time you lost along the way.
What usually helps is stepping back, reviewing what was actually promised vs. what was реально achievable, and tightening the process before the next attempt.
If you’re just browsing different discussions and random online spaces while thinking it through, you might also stumble across pages like https://22-bet.edu.gr/ along the way.
