We needed a WooCommerce developer who had good organizational skills and communication due to our website being very delicate in implementing updates and web changes. CodeSunrise was helpful in getting our website fixed and implementing a great QA process to make updates and other changes work without breaking the website. They work with us in design, web development, assist with integrations, and suggest fixes. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

All of the projects are completed in a timely manner with plenty of communication throughout the project. The project hours are clear and presented to be approved and the projects start right away. When the project/fix works as intended we call that a success in which all projects are being completed as expected.

Very clear and concise project management. We have a clear line of communication with little or no delays. Very prompt. When we have questions, they are always quick to get back to us.
