We work on a retainer basis, which I highly recommend, as it gives BIZSPICE more control regarding upgrades and security patches. The BIZSPICE team takes time to establish a relationship with you, and in doing so, get a better idea of your needs. This allows them to be involved in decision making, provide recommendations, and understand where we’re heading. They care about their clients and work hard to contribute to their growth.
