What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Good people. Good team. We appreciated their careful attention to detail.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Rapid Dev could have done differently?

Our initial MVP specification was too large to successfully deliver within the project timeframe, and ultimately had to be reduced mid-flight. Estimation is an understandable challenge for many development groups, but it would have been more helpful if the risk for in-flight cuts had been better communicated at the onset. And to be clear...this is purely constructive feedback. RapidDev navigated this situation very professionally in-flight.
