I've had bad experiences with this company.

I've had bad experiences with this company. A previous customer asked me to update his website with new content. He provided me with the old site URL and a couple of sample images. This was supposed to be easy since he gave me a link to the new site and a folder containing the samples. Instead of updating the website he asked me to create new pages and upload the content. He never provided any kind of guidance, just told me what he wanted and expected me to do it. When I contacted him he told…

Pros
  • You can also create a report that you can email to clients that shows the top 20 most popular articles, pages, etc., of the past month.
  • You can create multiple webpages with unique URLs for each page
  • You can add links to social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn without creating any kind of mess on your website
Cons
  • Some users may find the way to import reports difficult
  • For example, I tried to create a page titled "Latest News", but nothing happened when I clicked the button.

We’ve had a great experience working with AKU over the last 3 years. A large portion of the website development has been outsourced to them, and they've taken on most of the technical responsibilities such as managing hosting and updates. When we're ready to make major upgrades to the site, AKU gets involved early in the planning stages so that we can achieve a desired outcome. As a result, we have high confidence in the integrity of our website and would recommend them to any business looking…

Pros
  • Always willing to help solve problems and offer suggestions.
  • If there is ever anything that needs to be fixed, AKU is quick to respond.
Cons
  • The price per hour is expensive for the amount of work performed
  • In the time we've worked with AKU, the quality of their work leaves a little to be desired

Quick to respond and get things done. Easy to work with and always give us great advice. Very high standards in design and detail. Flexible to change direction and give feedback. Very happy to take on new projects and work with new clients. Will go above and beyond to help when asked. Can find the right balance between designer and developer. Fast delivery. Excellent communication and feedback. Happy to work closely with clients to achieve desired outcomes. Highly recommended. I've been using

Pros
  • The turnaround time is pretty impressive compared to other developers.
  • They know their stuff very well, even though the market for video editors may not be too big.
  • Their website looks good, which makes me trust them more.
Cons
  • You might get a feeling that they are just doing this to gain more customers, which is true in some sense, but also they deserve the price because they provide great value.
  • I tried reaching them through phone calls and emails, and I still didn't receive any reply
