Quality of Deliverables

“Univio's (formerly Unity Group's) solution is widely used across the headquarters and the larger network, and there have been no issues to prompt code audits. They are unique in their project management skills and flexibility. UNITY could benefit from a larger team, but they were ultimately helpful and effective.”
