I first met Sagy 2.5 years ago when he joined our team as a senior team member. As a senior developer, Sagy handled complexes and non-trivial challenges and quickly became a focal point for all team members. It was a pleasure to work together with Sagy and I feel that his contribution to the team was great. Thanks to his talent, Sagy was quickly promoted and became the team’s manager, and I'm glad that I got the opportunity to continue working with him. As a team leader, Sagy pushed the team to new heights by introducing new technologies. Sagy’s hunger to expand his knowledge, combing with his sense of innovation turned him into a role model. I feel lucky that I got the chance to work with Sagy, I was privileged with a great team colleague and appreciated manager. I think Sagy will be a great asset in every role he held!

I was honored to work with Sagy during 2014-2015 in Checkpoint, as I think he is one of the most skillful team leaders I've encountered. Sagy elegantly managed to push our team forward while remaining super professional, constantly balancing within the team members' needs along with company goals. Always encouraging and inspiring his surroundings, in the team and outside of it. One of Sagi's main qualities is his motivation for continuous improvement, by introducing new edgy technologies and creative ideas, elevating the product to the next level. I truly believe that Sagy is an asset to any company and hope that our professional paths will meet in the future.
