Qmarkets
I have no negative points to bring out. Qmarkets, as a company, has been very cooperative and has provided full support during the entire sales cycle. The sales cycle actually ran over a year with multiple discussions with the customer before they signed off. Qmarket products are well thought off and their fitment to customer needs are almost 100%.

Other competition products were evaluated but Qmarkets had products that were 100% fit for our customer's needs and the Qmarket team has excellent Tech team which we didn't see in the competition that we and our client evaluated. Also, the Q products are very flexible compared to others in the market.
