Kostya K.
Software Architect at Softjourn Inc,
This was a challenging and very interesting project. The best
part was thar we had all the freedom to suggest the architecture
and technology for the new system. And, of course, it is way
better to develop the software based on specs your own team
created. We are looking forward to the development phase!
