Emerline is an important part of our strategic team!
Emerline has been our technology partner since late 2012. In the early years I thought that would be a short-term gap fill until I could afford to hire my own technical team in the US. But they have consistently met the demands of our growing company and helped us build what we believe is the industry's best solution option. Emerline provides high quality work, so much so that our platform's reliability and accuracy has been mentioned by our largest customer's internal vendor survey repeatedly. The individuals we work with aren't just contractors, they are an important part of our strategic Team and we enjoy working with them every day!
