The RaccoonGang has been nothing but exception with regards to the planning of, developing and after-service when it came to our edX roll-out. More so, the learning curve on this has been huge for us and RG has simply made it possible with the sharing of knowledge and answering of questions. We would not be in the position we are now where we have a competitive solution in market had it not been for the RG and their teams of supportive staff. I would highly recommend RG to any company.
