Founder & CEO
“The team (at Keka) is quite enthusiastic and very dedicated. The customer support representatives assigned to us were available at any time. They are always ready to help and receptive to ideas. Even though we were in a different time zone with a difference of 5 to 6 hours of time, they were always available for us. You have a really good team.”
The big impact
