French term
bien rodé
French to English
Marketing
Business/Commerce (general)
"Une entreprise formidablement innovante, un outil très bien pensé, bien rodé. Un système qui permet un discours commercial construit."
Can you come up with something better than 'up & running/ running well' ? It's past the teething problem stage, I know, but I want something positive.

Victoria Porter-Burns
: I like 'smooth-running' or 'well-designed' here. Highly experienced may not be appropriate since it seems to be a relatively new business, although I might be wrong
