I would highly recommend Brett and the team at Stone Digital. They assisted us with building a new website which now allows for easier setup and customisation of pages and products which had been a pain point of ours for some time. The new site now loads very fast and overall is easier for our team to use. We specifically wanted custom, advanced integration with Hero Travel platform allowing for multi product bookings. Our new website uses custom designs to suit our brand whilst still being able to index well with Google. Brett and the team have been a pleasure to work with and are always on point. Would highly recommend.

I was introduced to Brett by an acquaintance. Brett was a very credible developer with excellent website, XML and CMS knowledge. When I went to Sydney, he came to the hotel cafe and had a very good meeting. In particular, my request was a multilingual EC site, but the development went smoothly. He always says “Feel free to get in touch if any questions throughout the process.” And he cares for me and follows up.
