Verified Testimonial

Our work on the DCW project was instrumental in modernizing the content delivery infrastructure. Migrating to Symfony resulted in a significantly more stable and maintainable API environment, while the integration of Amazon CloudSearch transformed the way users discover content. Search performance is now incredibly fast and accurate, and country-based filtering has made a major difference for our global audience. This project not only elevated the technical architecture but also greatly enhanced the user experience - we’re proud of what we achieved.
