MyPolicy. Pro (ID: 0000000f937b984a) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/03/2021 This is freaking opensource and totally awesome! Watch the YouTube videos Anders Jensen and Allan Zimmermann (the creator of this awesomeness) for training. If anyone gives this less than 5 Stars it is only because they have no idea what it and how amazing it is. Thanks for making this open source and may all big businesses sign up for the support. Thankyou again from a small business that needed this so much. What a blessing!
