We had daily communication with the team. The difference in timezones made things a little awkward at times but I was always shocked when I'd send them a message at what should have been very late at night for them expecting a response the following day, but someone was up working. Their work ethic and dedication was extremely impressive. We communicated via Skype and if we had a suggestion or change the fixes would be done almost instantly, if not within a day or two.

We loved their openness to suggestions. We pretty much got 98% of what we asked for and the other 2% probably were a bad idea anyway. It blew our minds how hard and how fast these people were working and their engagement with us throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was also A1.
