FlumX's location in Ukraine combined with our location in San Francisco, USA made for practically a constant 24hr work cycle. FlumX was quickly able to ramp up engineering and design staffing to quickly jump in. We had daily video calls in the AM Pacific time. Telegram message at night from the US would be addressed quickly, allowing us to keep both sides in the loop and working in tandem.

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

FlumX can do "creative engineering." My Grandfather was a US AA Officer in WW2, and turned his experience into a successful multi-generation technology company. Finding creative engineers was always his number one priority, and FlumX has that. It's a special thing, and combined with their prompt and fast turnarounds, they are really force multipliers.

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

FlumX did everything perfectly for this job. I was really impressed, and so was the final client. We solved an issue in less than 2 months the client had been trying to tackle for 2 years.
