      I’ve worked with ISimplifyMe on a number of different projects over the years, and I think they are second to none. I am very particular about whom I choose to work with, and had interviewed a lot of companies before deciding to go with ISimplifyMe. I had contemplated going with a local company (Los Angeles), thinking it may be easier to communicate, but with ISimplifyMe the time difference was a nonissue. They replied faster and more thoroughly than local companies, and have been able to deliver time and time again. They have consistently produced high quality work, while being honest, reliable, and trustworthy.

      Software Development Review from Theodore Patestos

      We’ve worked with Saad and his team for close to a year now. They’ve been diligent throughout the process, responsive and communicative. They came in mid-stream to save the project from another development team that didn’t live up to their commitments. I would highly recommend Plego to any company looking to see things move forward on a stalled project or looking for a team that will jump in and start to get things done.

      The team at SBO Buzz really came through for me! I was in the process of switching over from another website platform, to Wordpress. I did not realize I would have to redesign my website from scratch! I felt like I really messed things up! I enlisted the help of SBO Buzz, and my website looks great and does exactly what I need it to do! Including pulling over my social media sites, reviews, and integrating the call to action buttons I had incorporated. Thank you!
