Testimonials
We are very lucky to have kind words shared by our clients, here are a few:
Elaine is one of the best developers I have had the pleasure to work with. Elaine is a vital asset to any project she is working on. Her fantastic problem solving skills along with her strong empathy for the user ensures the best solution has been made for the problem at hand. Joel Carr, Developer, Barnardo's
Toby has been a vital resource for us as we have updated our website. We were initially keen for help on improving the gallery's SEO and with advice on navigating our Google Analytics, but he advised us on so much more. From suggestions about integrating our website with our database system to QR codes in Asia and even spotting typos — his astute eye for detail has been very much appreciated. Toby goes above and beyond. He responds quickly, always with a positive and helpful attitude and works hard to keep projects on schedule. Mackie Healy, Head of Marketing & Communications, Lisson Gallery
As our interim CTO, Toby has been invaluable in bridging the knowledge gap between Senior Management (who don’t have a technical background) and our development team.
He has helped us with roadmap prioritisation, identifying and resolving technical issues and provided solutions, advice and a series of recommendations (that we will be implementing) on how we can continue to improve processes, management and further bridging that knowledge/culture gap.
He’s also friendly, diplomatic, ethical and very responsive. It’s been a pleasure working with him and we’ve all learnt a lot – thanks Toby!
