Words from my clients

"Widget UK recently implemented PHP-based web services allowing its customers specific access to its internal systems based on Oracle. Katy Coe has been instrumental in making this happen delivering efficiency and professionalism to the project at all stages from helping explain the technologies necessary to define the specification through to quick delivery of the code and our clients' documentation. Whenever I need bespoke code in the future I'll look no further."
- Mathew Jones, Technical Director, Widget UK

"As a radio amateur I saw myself confronted with the problem to record data (signal / noise levels etc.) over time from different pieces of proprietary outdoor WiMAX/WLAN equipment without adequate interfaces. Katy Coe has implemented raw data collection and integration with rrdtool in a very short time and at an affordable price, even for a home user. Her solution is modular, very well documented and can therefore easily be adapted to other data sources. Communication with Ms. Coe during the development process and afterwards was a professional and very efficient experience. Should I ever again need an individual solution tailored to such a special problem, she'll be the first on my call list."
- H. Linden (Germany)
