We were impressed with their ability to listen to the functions we wanted our plug-in to have and deliver a product that did exactly that. When I started doing my research into different companies that offered plugin development services, I narrowed down my list to 3 companies. 

It was very obvious to me that ColorWhistle listened to me and UNDERSTOOD what I was trying to achieve right off the bat based on the detailed quote they sent me. It's not everyday you find a company that can take your idea, or vision, and make it come to fruition flawlessly. I couldn't be happier that I chose ColorWhistle to develop our custom plugin!!

Absolutely NOT. They were an absolute pleasure to work with.
