I selected J B Cole for the development and build of our parent company website. The project was executed flawlessly and they have since become my go-to web partners.
With J B Cole’s help, we have been able to keep the organisation both digitally agile and flexible – with the full confidence that we have a stable website and that we can adapt to whatever the world throws at us.
The team at J B Cole understood exactly what we wanted to achieve and helped us create a clean, updated website to showcase our brand and improve our online presence.
Having worked with Josh and the team at J B Cole on a number of successful client projects, it made sense to use a partner who we knew and trusted, when we wanted to refresh our own website.
We chose J B Cole as our partner for this project because of their expertise in integrations and building custom middleware solutions, but also because we wanted an agency we could truly work in partnership with on this project and treat as an extension of our team.
