How did hauerpower studio perform from a project management standpoint?

It was a particular process because we brought the design, but, as I mentioned,  we were not fully aware of how the website would look when it was live. It is two different things to have a Photoshop design and a website that moves and changes. 

hauerpower studio was very patient, and I have to emphasize that. There were many changes that were introduced without any extra costs. We were very happy, and they were very professional and quick.

What did you find most impressive about them?

The team was patient, which was important in developing the website step by step into perfection. I assume that some companies wouldn’t have that same patience.

Nothing comes to mind right away. If anything, at the end of the process, the implementation of small changes took more time. We did ask a lot, so I think it was natural.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

You have to know where you are going because this will speed up the process. In our case, we had a vision but there were still several things to correct, which extended the process. You need to have defined aims, and hauerpower studio will realize those very quickly.
