I have been working in the same small company for about 25 years so there is not much scope for recent testimonials. However, over the years I have garnered these kind comments from former colleagues and customers.
Jon is a top notch IT consultant who I have used over many years. He is a Microsoft expert who I can't recommend highly enough.
Coming across Jon Perkins via an internet search was very fortuitous. Our VB.NET project had been in progress for some 18 months but was struggling with the GDI+ work and was deeply in need of assistance in order to fast track its completion. After a meeting and a run through of the source, Jon was able to create a structured proposal for the completion of the project and at a very realistic cost. The project was worked on solidly for the next few months and the work was exceptional.
The finished project has since been released to great acclaim and it is testament to his hard work that there has been no bug fixes or follow up work required on his code. I would certainly recommend Jon Perkins and will consult Jon on any future projects we are planning."
Having worked with Jon from 1998 to 2001, I have seen first hand how eager he is to produce highly developed software within given timescales. Not only does Jon always maintain a highly professional manner, but combines this with a warm and friendly approach. This is why so many users value his input, because Jon speaks on their level, not intimidating them, but listening and responding to business needs.
Never afraid to grasp new technology, he exploits the development tools he uses to the full. It has been a pleasure working with Jon over the last three years.
Jon joined our development team in June 1996 on an initial six month contract to develop Remote ActiveX Servers for a Sales Order Processing system. Since then the contract has been extended on two separate occasions.
The products developed by Jon are of an exceptionally high standard and have been accompanied by comprehensive documentation and an excellent test strategy.
From a personal perspective, Jon is extremely proactive and a pleasure to work with and consequently I would have no reservation in using Jon's services again.
Not actually a testimonial, this was in the post-implementation review document for the Tactical Daily Interest System - but I mention it anyway :-)
The work carried out by the external contractor was excellent. His approach to the whole thing was first class. He was able to see things from a user point of view and could be relied on to provide advice and assistance when needed. The services of Jon Perkins would definitely be highly recommended.
...This really was the example of the perfect project...
