They know their stuff and are experts. I’ve spoken to a lot of technical people and know how to spot jargon. I feel like I’m in safe hands.
They’ve been really transparent, breaking down everything they work on every month, for how long, and at what price. Everyone’s been quite impressed. We had such a hard time with the previous developer with things being slow and incorrect. It’s very refreshing to get it right the first time. I’ve been impressed.
