Digital Marketing Review from Tracie C.
They are an incredible company, comprising great talent. The best quality about DK is the ability and acknowledgment that it has pulled in throughout the years. Not exclusively will you work with industry pioneers in configuration, movement, and experiential orders, you'll have the option to be a basic part to the inventive procedure. No real cons however the board should give additional regard for the imaginative procedure. I worked at Digital Kitchen full-time for over 4 years and I adored it and it has helped me a great deal.

It's so much more than your average sales tool. It's like comparing a new IPhone 7+ with MS DOS, they are just not in the same league. It tells me as a user what to do in my salesprocess, who to call, when to do it (planned in my calendar) and it lets me handle my admin without any unnecessary time spent on boring steps. On top of that, my manager can watch my progress in real time and can build reports without me having to prepare any info

Andrew Cretella's Review Sourced from Google
I did some work with Feld on a commercial shoot in October 2024. I was never paid. I tried contacting them through email, phone and the contact form on their website. The only people who got back to me were freelancers who were contracted for the shoot, some of whom said that they hadn't been paid either. Anyone directly associated with Feld was completely unresponsive.

EIGHT25MEDIA has been a pleasure to work with. Gishan and his team have been incredible throughout the process and post-launch of the website. They are the best web development team I've ever worked with. I could not recommend them enough. They are #1 in a lot of review for a reason. They are responsive, knowledgable, and go above and beyond for their clients. We love our website.

Megan Folkman's Review Sourced from Google
My company had a pretty horrible experience with this company! They overpromised and underdelivered, the project management experience was clunky, confusing and repetitive, there was a lot of work on the part of the client to complete (when you're paying $25K you'd expect it to be seamless). Topics during conversations were forgotten, instructions had to be repeated multiple times. Upon completion, we allowed one of our freelancers access to the coding and she deemed it "lazy coding." The whole experience was very unfortunate!
