Yousef Achercouk, Wood Group Kenny.
We had a clear idea of what we wanted to achieve. Achorda totally understood our requirements from the beginning and actually suggested improvements to our specification throughout the project.
Rather than just producing an app from a specification, Achorda provided creative value throughout including UI and graphic design principles as well as fundamental advice on how best to implement our ideas.
The quality of the resulting app exceeded our expectations and we would certainly recommend their services to others.
