makandra GmbH supported us with the relaunch of the studyflix e-learning platform - it took just under three months from the joint development of the concept to the relaunch of the complete platform. In addition to the rapid implementation, the quality of the work was outstanding and the collaboration was always based on trust. We can definitely recommend makandra!
