Customer review
«We worked over the service KiwiTaxi jointly with the team of the company Astarus from 2012 to 2013.
The task given to the company "Astarus” was to develop the first version of the taxi service for tourists with minimal functionality and make a solid foundation for future growth of the project.
I think that "Astarus" coped with the task. I am very pleased with our cooperation.»
