We have been working together with chris dorian behalf of Photomart Company for the past few years and they have always been there to support me with the developments idea that we need to implement on Photomart Multi store site with heavy database. Chris is really very professional and quick mind solution for every problem that we face on real time while customer facing issue to purchase item with different-2 stores. Task I have done with Chris mentioned below: - Configuring Multiple Stores to target different audiences from the same inventory - Upgrading the older Magento 1 System to Magento 2, especially with migration of data, conversion, extensions and troubleshooting to ensure it all worked. - Working to ensure the stores are GDPR compliant - Payment gateway configuration and installation. - Addressing and resolving potential security threats. - Always available for communication whenever we need. These are just a few of the examples, but no matter how random my requests or enquiries have been resolved with the help of Chris, chris has very good idea to resolve the problem quickly and provide solution for photomart customer. Chris is able to handle full Magento 1 and Magento 2 admin without my help and this thing is amazing as he is not depended on any developer whenever he want to do something from admin. The fact that Chris has communicated with me outside of his working hours in order to address potential emergencies shows the care and attention he has to providing Photomart with the best service.
