Our Clients Say

Tobias Sueber

CEO, Flibco.com

“ We were contacting companies, but they were all not right for us because they were arrogant. And then we reached out to Ascendix Technologies and I met Wes and Todd. I explained to them my ideas and what is my spirit. We made a test within a driver application and just optimized it for our bus drivers because there was a huge demand. And it worked amazing. ”

Jan Weber

Project Manager, SLG

“ The project management was great. Ascendix was always available and very responsive to questions. It was clear at all times at what point we were in the project. It was great to see how fast and above all structured the work was. I always had a direct contact person who discussed everything directly with his team and then came back to me. ”

“ Ascendix ran nearly the entire project through the Microsoft Teams platform, which was incredibly easy for us to collaborate on files through, conduct meetings, and submit questions and comments with ease. We typically scheduled discussion calls at specific times following development sprints. There was never a meeting just for a meeting’s sake/regular scheduling. Everything had a specific purpose and it drove development effectively. ”
