They didn’t do an excellent job - delivering something late, with serious bugs, and missing promised features, is a very poor job.
Software development isn’t hard or easy, it’s just like any other task in that to execute properly and professionally takes planning and management. Devialet make software development look hard because they do it in a haphazard way and apparently underestimate the time and resources needed to do it properly. The reality is they should have been working on the software part of the CI before they announced it. As it stands it appears they started around the time it was due for release.
They also have poor beta test menagenent, closed and mostly secret, which is unprofessional.
