"Michael is the best back-end developer I've ever worked with. He really knows his stuff, communicates really well and has always been able to figure out whatever I throw at him. He rocks!"

"I have been working with Michael for over 10 years. Michael is highly skilled and does outstanding work. He is always available to update my website or resolve any issues that may come up. A couple of years ago I attempted to bring up my website and it was down. It was Christmas day in the evening. I sent a note to Michael telling him the site was down. My expectation was that the problem would be resolved in a couple of days. Michael resolved the problem that evening. Now that is customer service. Michael is easy to work with and is second to none with his service."
