What we said about each
What we said about Edenspiekermann
"Case studies for HUK-COBURG, Stiftung Warentest, and the City of Leipzig show end-to-end process—field research, user interviews, iterative prototyping, and shipped products—with specifics like a 5-month go-to-market for HUK AutoService and a bespoke typeface scaled to 9,000 municipal employees. The work gravitates toward brand-led digital transformation for large institutions rather than standalone product UX, so confirm the team setup if your need is purely UX/UI without a branding component.…"

"UID's portfolio shows 20+ project showcases spanning industrial interfaces (Bosch Rexroth, Dürr Systems, LIEBHERR), medical devices (BERLIN-CHEMIE, Pharmatechnik, Qiagen), and consumer electronics (Thermomix TM6). The Thermomix case documents user research, iterative UI design, and cross-functional collaboration—earning Red Dot and iF DESIGN awards. Published case studies consistently reference research phases and design process, though specific business metrics are rare."

Strengths and watch-outs
Both upsides and risks, straight from our editorial assessments.
Edenspiekermann
✓ Strengths
- •Documented research methodology across case studies—field visits, qualitative user interviews, and consumer testing visible in multiple projects
- •In-house development capability (web, native, AR) reduces handoff risk between design and implementation
- •Major institutional clients including HUK-COBURG (12M customers), Stiftung Warentest (96% brand recognition in Germany), and Lucid Motors
⚠ Watch-outs
- •Portfolio skews toward branding and corporate identity—if your project is a pure digital product without a brand component, ask to see standalone UX/UI work
- •At €138+/hr with a Berlin + US office footprint, request a clear breakdown of which office and seniority levels will staff your project
- •Case studies highlight German institutional clients—if you operate in a different market, ask about relevant regional experience
- •Process documentation is strong but quantified UX outcomes (task completion rates, conversion lifts, satisfaction scores) are largely absent—ask for metrics from recent engagements
User Interface Design
✓ Strengths
- •20+ published showcases across 5 verticals with named enterprise clients (Bosch, Merck, Vorwerk, LIEBHERR)
- •Visible research-to-design process with 3 design awards (Red Dot, iF DESIGN, UX Design Award) for Thermomix TM6
- •Dedicated UX enablement service—useful if you need to build internal UX capability alongside delivery
⚠ Watch-outs
- •Published case studies rarely include specific business metrics—ask for measurable outcomes before committing
- •Frontend development offered through sister company BAYOOTEC—clarify team composition for projects requiring development
