Why Teams Choose Us

Rails coding conventions
1

Conventions respected

Rails is fast because of its conventions, and deviating from them is what makes Rails projects slow.

Rails version upgrades
2

Upgrade path planned

Version upgrades handled incrementally, with tests added first where coverage is missing.

Database query performance
3

Query performance monitored

N+1 queries are the single most common Rails performance problem, so we watch for them.
