"Working in the field of services, we very scrupulously treat reliability of service and safety of data, as well as observance of local laws and therefore always we try to fulfill the requirements of local regulators. When choosing provider we were guided by the level of its examination, reliability of a cloud platform, certification of such organizations as Uptime Institute and Council for standards of security of payment cards. On the project course we daily received written reports about the status of works and regularly met representatives of the company personally to discuss parts. It allowed to solve problems in process of their emergence. The similar scheme of work — face to face — is used by cloud provider and at a stage of technical support of systems which are already placed in a cloud".
