What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
What I found most impressive and unique about this company was their exceptional attention to detail and customer-centric approach. They took the time to thoroughly understand our specific needs and tailored solutions that were not only effective but also future-proof. Their ability to integrate cutting-edge technology seamlessly with our existing systems, while ensuring scalability, was truly remarkable.
Additionally, their proactive communication and transparency set them apart.

Their flexibility and problem-solving abilities were also standout qualities — they consistently found ways to adjust the project scope to meet changing requirements without compromising on quality or timelines.
Overall, their deep expertise in IT infrastructure, combined with their focus on building long-term solutions and relationships, made them a standout choice.
Are there any areas for improvement or something CUSTOM STYLE could have done differently?
While the overall experience with CUSTOM STYLE was very positive, there are a couple of areas where slight improvements could be made:
Initial Onboarding and Documentation: While the project was executed smoothly, the initial onboarding phase could have been more streamlined. Some documentation, such as system architecture diagrams and detailed user guides, could have been provided earlier in the process. This would have helped us get up to speed more quickly and better understand the changes being implemented.
Proactive Risk Management: Although the team was responsive to issues that arose, a more proactive approach to risk management could have helped identify and mitigate potential challenges earlier. For example, having a more detailed risk assessment and contingency plan at the start of the project would have been beneficial in anticipating possible roadblocks.
Training and Knowledge Transfer: While the technical implementation was excellent, providing more in-depth training for our internal teams could have helped improve long-term adoption of the solutions. A few more hands-on training sessions or knowledge transfer workshops would have been beneficial.
Overall, these are minor suggestions, as CUSTOM STYLE delivered a high-quality service. Their work was efficient, and they showed great flexibility, but these small adjustments could enhance their already strong performance even further.
