Using a proprietary methodology, Clutch uses both qualitative and quantitative means of assessing the agency services and quality of work.<\/p>\n<p>These assessments included one-on-one interviews with agency clients, providing real, non-biased and transparent insights into how the client and agency relationship really works. This type of analysis and review is important.<\/p>\n<p>Our expertise has been recognized, most importantly, by the clients we serve. One client, the director of IT infrastructure for an insurance provider, said, \u201cThey\u2019re very process-oriented. We can count on tasks being handled professionally and in a similar fashion time after time, unlike other providers I\u2019ve come across.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re proud to have served the cloud computing needs of our clients for the past 13 years, and we look forward to serving them for many more.
