"Bardia and the whole Lolay team provided a great iPhone App which is very speedy to spec on time and on budget. Does it get better than that? It does. Bardia made sure that we were thinking through issues beyond our spec and even helped shepherd our app quickly through the Apple approval process. He and Lolay recognized an opportunity with the iPhone 5 and help us seize it. Looking forward to working with him and his team again."
