“The Idox team were great to work with throughout the sale process. The experience of the Idox team certainly helped come up with a solution to one of the more significant hurdles. A friendly pragmatic approach with good communications really is the key.”
“We viewed the acquisition in four parts: legal process, accounting, due diligence and interaction with the senior Idox team. The senior Idox team was the most positive part. The interactions were friendly but professional, and there was a willingness to talk, be fair and pragmatic; and where necessary break deadlock situations arising from the legal process.”
