They are a big team to collaborate with and always labor to find a solution or even enhance a design component to make the UX as efficient as practicable.

The team from JustCoded is fast and always ready to prepare helpful hintions. There have been times where something may have been overlooked by our part and they are fast to point it out so we can make compensation.
They are very detailed in their feedback and breakdowns and they have a big eye for detail when it comes to matching the create to the design.
What should be done better, if there are any desired improvements?
When we got the initial breakdown for the aim of the project it was so detailed that it almost became more work just trying to apprehend how the budget was being distributed for resource which resulted in a call to get some clarify.
After that all was understood so, perhaps I would hint them giving more of a top level overview of their breakdowns so it isn',t so granular. But aloof from that all else has been nothing but big.
