More Satisfied Customers
'Christopher Lynch of Taltusmedia:
“I"'ve worked with quite a few offshore
developers in the past, but none that
have had the professionalism and
excellent communication skills as these
guys. Highly recommend their services.
Jonathan Segal of Ecolane: "I've been
working with Gigi's company for almost two
years. I have engaged them in several
projects. They've been an affordable,
reliable partner for my needs..
Jennifer Schulman of Fortune Web
Marketing: “Working with the
Offshorent team has been a terrific
experience. We have given them
several projects and they have come
through with shining colors. They
communicate if more info is needed
and they go the extra mile to make
sure our staff understands the
technical aspects of the work. They go
above and beyond what any
developer we employed prior had
done. You can always expect a quick
response. We are looking forward to
working with them on many projects in
the future.”
Perry Yeldham of 21Thirteen Design: As
a successful Web Design & Development
company, we have a lot of experience with
programmers. We have been extremely
pleased with Gigi's company's services.
He went beyond anticipating our needs
to suggesting ideas we didn't even think

time, with great communication and at a
very reasonable cost. I am already
recommending Gigi to our clients and
would recommend him to you
unequivocally!
