We appreciate the feedback as the DDN technology that we deliver to our customers are unique product offerings and scalable solutions that are the most innovative in the market. However, we disagree as the two cofounders have been an integral part of the success and growth of the company and creating a team environment that is flexible, highly energized, collaborative and rewarding.
