I know Virgil (the owner) since high school and in 2007 I asked him for advice in building an internal order tracking system for my computer repair shop in Chicago. I didn’t know anything about the process or what should I ask for from the new system but he helped me understand how everything works, advised me in what technology to use and his team delivered a product that was beyond my expectations. Since then I recommended them to customers in Chicago land area and everybody was amazed about their professionalism.
