We hired LuminFire in March 2021 to build a database for us. It had a projected finish date of less than a year. It's now August 2022 and we have nothing usable but are still receiving invoices. After $37,000+ spent with LuminFire, we built this database in house instead. We've gone with another company for any other website work. The only usable thing that we can take away from LuminFire is a very expensive lesson. At least one 5-star review listed here on Google is from an employee of LuminFire.
