I think their finishing could be improved and further tests should be run before they hand over the final product. There were a few issues in the back end and the front end that we had to pick up ourselves only after we launched, so the one thing we would say is that they should do a more comprehensive sweep on all the features before handing it over.

Although once again they were quick to attend to them once brought to their attention.
