    Embark was willing to listen to our needs as an organization and turn those needs into a professional and polished final project. The team is small enough to provide individualized attention but possesses the knowledge and experience of a large firm. Though Embark is not from the same industry as our company, they conducted extensive market research to ensure the project exceeded industry standards.

    Embark redesigned and developed the client's WordPress website to make it easier to use. Additionally, it changed the website's imagery, helped take photos, and worked closely with the client to develop copy. The result was what the client wanted: a website GDP can be proud of. The client also appreciated Embark's boutique approach, tailoring services to GDP's needs. (Verified via email)

    Embark understood the client's mission and how it was related to the broader community it serves, aligning the website with the target audience's needs. Combining aesthetics and functionality, the agency increased traffic and user-friendliness compared to the old site. The site itself is easy to navigate and very beautiful. (Verified via email)

    Embark helped build our website from scratch and collaborated with us on its overall design. We mostly provided the platform’s content, but there was a lot of back and forth as they consulted on what to put and get rid of. Embark was fantastic and easy to work with — they were very patient in dealing with our needs and timely with what they needed to deliver. I’d like to highly recommend Embark to people seeking web development expertise.

We were pleased with their efforts, recommendations, and the end product they provided.

    Embark built us a new website, and we chose to go with them for their pricing fit, culture fit, and overall value for cost. We were able to deploy a good website in [a] reasonable time. They always responded promptly, or if unavailable, one of their team members [has] always contacted us. In the end, we were very satisfied and developed a personal relationship. (Verified via email)

    It was a good experience. They go above and beyond our requests. I love that they do not want to cut corners, and in fact, we requested that we skip steps in the design process because of our timeline.
