For what projects/services did your company hire Mencodehard, and what were your goals?

Our site is made on Wordpress and uses Woocommerce plugin for ordering products. We hired Mencodehard to perform website migration and some urgent fixes. After it we ordered an overall website redesign (desktop + responsive) and custom localization features.

We needed to show specific static content and product prices different in each city where we sold our product Due to certain issues with our previous service provider we had to urgently migrate our site to a temporary server while we were in process with getting a new hosting account.
