The real excitement comes from having a partner that truly believes in our vision and can effectively showcase the effectiveness of Leverate technology both in terms of increasing the top line results and cutting effective costs in a scalable manner. We can also learn and develop our products with open feedback from LegacyFX as with any other customer that works with us hand in hand.
