Q: How do you deliver contract agreements ?

Alternatively, documents could be also signed by hand and then be faxed or sent either by courier such as FedEx,EMS,etc.

Q: Is there a way to discuss my business requirements on phone as I cannot accurately describe my needs for the project by typing ?
A: Certainly. We use phone communication very frequently, though mainly for obtaining client feedback, receiving instructions on project modifications and for clarifying questions and minor issues. We obtain the initial customer requirements in writing, either by email or by courier, before we begin the project, in order to ensure that everyone is on the same page.
Q: What are your days/hours of operation?
A: Our service and sales offices are open from 6am to 5pm local time, Monday through Saturday. Our online services and online contact center are available 24/7.
Q: While you are developing our modules, will there be a way for us to see them as they are coming along ?
A: Absolutely. You will have the ability to monitor the progress of the project as it is coming along through email/phone/IM status checks. We take into account the feedbacks and modifications received from you during development of your modules.
Q: On completion of the project, do you turn all source code and database information over to the client ?
A:
Yes, we will certainly send you all the source code and databases as soon as they are ready.
Q: What type of post-development support do you offer ?
A: We offer our full support after deployment of the project. This includes informational support as well as any relevant fixes or fine tuning needed to exactly match initial project requirements.
