Testimonials

Working with northStudio on the Lethbridge College website was an awesome experience. Their friendly staff is not only talented with Drupal, but their passion shows through their work. As the visual designer, amongst other things, I was impressed with how they were able to translate my Photoshop documents into pixel-perfect Drupal themes. It made my job way easier and less stressful. The quality of the end product and the hard work everyone put it the project was very impressive, not to mention their great communication and turnaround times. Since the launch, my peers have been giving nothing but compliments. You can be sure I'll recommend northStudio in the future.

It’s been a pleasure working with you and the northStudio team as well. What I really have appreciated is your professionalism when encountering misunderstandings or disagreements. These are part of life when it comes to working on large projects anywhere, and it’s great to work with people that can take these things in stride and work thru them to a mutually satisfactory solution. Thank you!

Rob Janus – Victoria Hospice

From my perspective Candace, I was very pleased with the quality of service – and product. I felt that your team responded very quickly to our questions and concerns, and addressed any misunderstandings or additional requests very professionally and quickly – keeping in mind the relationship and needs of your client. Your team is very talented – the logos were wonderful, and really portrayed the image Guardian was trying to achieve. I was surprised – to be honest – about how quickly we were able to pick a logo from the great options you gave us. I know this can often be a difficult process, building an “image” for an organization, but your team did it with great ease. The way you went about asking us questions, asking us for “key words”, and getting the basics answered immediately was productive and efficient. It was a great start. All in all, the quality of the site is great – I’m pleased with how easy it is to maintain and how it turned out. It’s transformed Guardian’s image into something very professional, current, modern, user-friendly yet business-like. I think it was a successful project, and I’m glad we were able to work with North Studio on this adventure. Anyways, all in all I had a great time working with your team – and was happy that we could support a local school as well. I would recommend northStudio to anyone looking at building a website – and would be pleased to work with your team in the future. Thank you for all of your help, guidance, patience, and professionalism.

It has been a pleasure working with northStudio. We are very satisfied with the CMS they built for us and feedback from our site visitors has been entirely positive. Our editors are extremely happy about the easy way of managing their website content. northStudio’s team was always very responsive and quick to help us with any issues that came up during the implementation and since the site was launched. Although we had lots of very specific and detailed requirements, northStudio managed to find a solution for all our problems which included custom coded modules. Moreover, they implemented a powerful workflow and revisioning process that helps our editors to manage the content with reminders, content scheduling etc. We plan to continue to work with northStudio for our next phase of developments for the website.

Rene and his crew at northStudio.com were a fantastic team to work with!! Their professionalism, creativity and advise provided us with a stunning, quality product that exceeded both ours and our clients expectations. We are forever grateful for the time that the North Studio team took to continually turn our feedback into action. Their client centered focus is the key ingredient in creating the best possible product. It took great interpersonal skill and patience for Rene and his team to turn our undirected creativity into the logo and graphical materials that suit our programs to a "T." Thanks North Studio!!

Jeannie Coates, Value & Recognition Coordinator –

I just wanted to ask you to thank Dieter Gerhard for the late hours and hard work he put in to get my domain issues squared away. The problems I had were entirely my own doing, but he took the time required to take care of my issue very quickly and with no discomfort or worry from me at all. People who go the extra mile are hard to come by; I hope you'll take whatever care you must to make sure you keep him around

Joe Campanella –

I swear if we had five cottages we could fill them all. Thank you for teaching us the business. It is so darn much work but lots of fun. I so appreciate all your help these past three years. Time goes so fast. Did I tell you that almost everyone that sees the web site says it is the best!!! We knew that didn't we.

Doni Topel, Owner - Old Hatchery Lake Cottage –

My website: www.soulharp.com was an unusual website to design as it is both a personal website and a business website. I wanted to develop a web site that had an appropriate professional appearance while at the same time, a site that reflects my artistic and creative personality. Consequently, when my mother and I researched web designers, we looked for one who could deliver the image desired, while interacting with me in a manner consistent with my personality. This was not an easy task. Most were either all image or all personality. We found North Studio and they have exceeded our expectations. The website they designed conveys the image I desired, better than I imagined it would. The ebb and flow of the design process has been even more rewarding. northStudio.com welcomed my input, while keeping their expertise in play. They have been extremely patient with me, not only with requests for alterations, but in terms of making themselves available to teach me about the process we are partnering in. They are extremely reliable and work in a timely manner. They are true professionals who can cater to any individual. I think that is a rare quality in the world of web design. The compliments on my website have been pouring in and I am already noticing that my site appears as one of the first or second listings in the search engines. I am confident that this is going to have a tremendous impact on my business. It is a genuine honor to recommend North Studio for your highest consideration. 7095 Hollywood Boulevard #1144 Hollywood, CA. 90028 USA

northStudio.com has handled my project the way I aspire to run my business - with efficiency and class, and hopefully a little creative flair. From my web site, rack card and print advertising, the folks at northStudio.com have been attentive, efficient and genuinely interested. I was never given the rush out the door, and the product has been superb. People rave about my web site, and every deadline has been met with no fuss, no matter how ridiculous the deadline was.

Susan - Ambrosia B&B, Victoria, BC –

Just a note to let you how pleased we are with the performance of our new website www.OakLaneVictoria.com and your excellent service as our webmaster. The new site imparts a very professional image, is easy to navigate and performs exceptionally well on the major search engines - we are #1 in Google! Many guests have commented that they selected our business over many others "because we liked your website!" There is no question the new website has produced a very significant increase in our business this season and has already paid for itself many times over. Thank you northStudio.com!

Don and Deborah - www.OakLaneVictoria.com –

I can't thank northStudio.com Inc. enough for the tremendous job they did in developing my website, www.HomeMovieConversion.com. I was looking for a site that would capture the memory "feel" I was trying to develop as opposed to the technical aspect. They did just that! These people are true professionals. No request or question on my part was a burden to them. Dieter and his staff were courteous, responsive, helpful, and very professional every step of the way. Emails and questions were answered promptly and their input and ideas were invaluable. If you are looking for a top of the line site with top of the line people, you need look no further. Thanks guys!!! As an addendum to my earlier comments, I would like to add that on February 07/05 my Web Site reached top ten status on the first page of Google. This is further tribute to the job that North Studio does. Not only did they provide me with a top notch web site, but also took the steps necessary to make sure that it achieved top status on the Web's major search engine. Their service does not end as soon as the Web Site is posted. Again, great job guys and I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone. Thanks. Doug Griffith, HMC.

I would again like to thank you and the staff at northStudio for doing such a great job on the new web site and for doing what ever it is you do to consistently get me on the first page of Google and most of the time I am in the 2nd or 3rd spot. Thanks again for the great job.

The website was a great success as Carole was elected as the new leader of the NDP. Thanks for all your help - your staff were helpful and the instructions that you sent made using the site a breeze.

Ernie Banfield –

Since early 2001 we have had the considerable advantage of having northStudio.com Inc. as our webmaster and site developer. northStudio's expertise, artistic sensitivity and thorough technical knowledge, particularly in the area of attracting traffic to our site, were the main reasons that we retained their group. We also appreciate their day-to-day quick response, and conscientious help. We have made comparisons with many sites and Web development services and we feel it would be very difficult to exceed the capabilities of northStudio.com. Please call us if you want further information or visit our site at www.BletheringPlace.com.

Ken Agate - The Blethering Place –

I have been thoroughly impressed with Northstudio.com's professional approach to the development of our web site: FoolMoonComics.com. northStudio.com provided us with a detailed quote and cost structure for our project and were up front about costs such as hosting and domain registration, where other companies were evasive. northStudio.com met and exceeded my expectations of a web development company through every step of our project. I would be happy to recommend their services to others looking to set up a professional web site. Beyond the excellent job they did on the project I found the staff to be easy to get in touch with and conscientious of our project's goals and vision.

John Zimmerman, Director of Public Relations - www.FoolMoonComics.com –

I just wanted to let you know that we had our first guests this past weekend. (I know it is pretty late in the season, but still, we're happy to have the guests and to be booking up some time in August.) I enjoyed having the people here and they have taken advantage of our services. So thank you for the website! I feel that it is invaluable in getting most of the bookings so far. Also the SEO is working pretty well. I'm able to find it while surfing now."

Tara - www.YogaGarden.com –

The Fairfield Community Association has enjoyed working with Northstudio.com to create our new web application. The Northstudio team was quick to understand our association's requirements and has been interested and excited about the project with us along the way. Throughout the whole development process the team at NorthStudio was cooperative, helpful and flexible. They listened to us and understood our needs. We know that this is the beginning of a great partnership. In the future we hope to come back to Northstudio for their help in adding further functions to our great new website. Thanks.

Alexis Hill, Office Coordinator - Fairfield Community Association –

You are all the best! I wish I could put my feelings into more sophisticated content but I cannot. The attention to detail when combined with your genius and technical ability is a heady mix. Prescient comes to mind. Thank you for the unbelievable response times and dedication to your art. I personally tell those who seek a harmonious web entrance experience that there is only one web development community that I can fully endorse, can you guess who? North Studio and the graduates of VSBT. But of course. The Synergy that the North Studio environment creates seems to work! Your path is a revolution in Business/PR communication direction and the benefits we have received from our partnership with you have returned tenfold. With many thanks.

Jeff Lorton - West Coast Whales –

The team at North Studio provided excellent service every step of the way in the design and development of my website, letterhead and business cards. From my initial request for a quotation to launching my site, all staff members were extremely helpful and professional. The North Studio team did a fantastic job of suggesting design options suited to my business and in providing user-friendly instructions on how to add and change content on my website. Without exception, staff members provided prompt and friendly service. I was always impressed with how quickly I received responses when I posted a question or request through their excellent online project management site. I highly recommend North Studio.

Exceptionally adept and competent web developers, the professionals at North Studio are not only talented when it comes to designing your website, they also go the extra mile and truly listen to the customer.
