Customer Quote
"This was our first time getting ready for the SOC 2 Type 2 audit, and if it hadn't been for Workstreet, it would have taken us forever to get ready. Besides doing the actual work, they provided great recommendations and advice when we had any questions. Working with them saved us a ton of time and eliminated any worries about whether we are doing this well. I'd partner with them again in a heartbeat." — Una Japundza, CRO, HeyTaco!
