“We found Jas through recommendation and what a find!
He worked speedily and methodically and did all we needed to set up a site from scratch, in a professional, calm and helpful manner. We are convinced we would have been looking at a significantly longer overall development time without his assistance.
It may also interest some potential clients that ours was not a technical background at all. However, Jas was able to work closely with us in a language we could understand. Technical skills in this field may be comparatively easy to come by, but to find someone who can communicate these to those in the dark is a rarity.
We have no hesitation in recommending Jas.” Director of Completely Croatia
