LightSpeed impressed me with their speed of service, the quality of their work and their regular communication during the project build. I would happily recommend their services.
I had the privilege of mentoring Ashley Shaw on the 2009 VeloCITI business development programme. Under Ashley’s guidance, LightSpeed has established a strong reputation in the market, leading to significant growth in the business. I believe the key to LightSpeed’s success has been their ability to really understand their clients’ needs and consistently deliver innovative solutions. As a result, LightSpeed was placed 1st out of 10 VeloCITI finalists in 2009 and I expect the business to continue on its impressive growth trajectory.
Working with Ashley and the Lightspeed team has been an absolute pleasure. They quickly understand the objective of a client’s website and provide valuable guidance as to how it should be reflected online. Work is carried out efficiently and turnaround time is exceptional – living up to their name. Working with a number of clients in the high tech environment, I am confident that Lightspeed will be able to produce an end product that has all the technical requirements while still being easy to manage. I am happy to put them forward to pitch for even the trickiest client requests.
I am thrilled with the work Ashley and his team at Lightspeed put into creating my website. They fully understood what I needed and designed an extremely professional-looking site. Their follow-up service was also excellent, ensuring I was fully satisfied with my site.
I just thought I’d take time to let you know that I am incredibly impressed by your teams service. I had an unexpected problem with my website after doing some routine updates at 10:30pm at night. After trying to sort things out myself I emailed you guys at 12:25am. To my surprise, Chris replied and in just under an hour had managed to resolve the issue. I don’t know of a single other web consultancy that has true 24hr support and the level of skill when it comes to the WordPress platform.
The Sentient wiki is a simple, useful tool that can handle everything from operational procedures to monthly admin. Its infinite flexibility means that we can adapt it to just about any internal need, be it for a vault of stock photographs, profiles on our clients, or even a repository of internal documents. The nature of the wiki has also instilled a greater sense of collaboration on projects, helping us produce even better material for our clients. Our wiki is now part of everyday Sentient life!
We needed some urgent development work done for springleap.com. Ashley and his team got involved, and completed the work perfectly within the agreed time.
Bluechip Property Information Ltd was established in August of 2007 to supply Home Information Packs and Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) on homes marketed for sale in the UK, as required by the Housing Act 2004 and The European Directive on Energy 2002. We are in a period of rapid growth and have had to be highly responsive in this emerging market. A key element to any business is its branding and LightSpeed not only assisted in constructing a website that fit our specification but also provided a look and feel that perfectly matched our expectations and requirements. Despite being based a couple of continents away we have been impressed with the ease by which we have been able to communicate our ideas and the flexibility that LightSpeed have shown in helping us to achieve a website that has been central in the development of our other marketing materials. LightSpeed will be a key partner in our evolution over the years to come.
Lightspeed were commissioned to revamp my website and make it more interactive and user friendly, as well as create a bimonthly newsletter format which I could manage. The result has been fantastic. Their input re the latest technology and IT information has been very helpful. They are very organized and work with a high degree of integrity. If there were ever any delays, (which was seldom), they always get back to me and inform me about the delay and when the problem would be rectified. I have had very positive feedback on the site and would recommend using their services.
South African Courier Systems operates in the marketplace alongside multinational companies such as Fed Ex and DHL. One of the focus areas where it is essential for us to be strong is our internal procedures and systems and how staff across the country are able to access this constantly updated information. LightSpeed have introduced us to the concept of an internal wiki, and this is enabling us to radically improve the sharing of knowledge throughout our company. We look forward to having a long relationship with LightSpeed and implementing the concept for our offices overseas.
Ashley really made sure that he understood what my requirements and objectives were and kept me fully up to date on developments as the website progressed. I have no hesitation in recommending him, Lightspeed and FeedMyMedia.
Let it be said that Traffic Brand are very happy with their new website! It looks great and functions soundly and we will definitely reccommend Light Speed as a company that provide excellent service and great value for your investment. We found them to be approachable and helpful on all levels. Furthermore, we found their response time to be exceptional and their problem-solving attitude meant they made a great effort to deliver even our most unusual requests. Light Speed possibly offer the most cost-effective means to a search engine friendly website with a CMS system and scope for an easily expandable website.
LightSpeed is a company of excellence in terms of their professional approach, detail paid to their product development, their concern for their clients and integrity. We would highly recommend them.
During 2007 Covert Paintball entered the WIN a WIKI competition that was being run by LightSpeed. To our delight a month later we were notified that we had WON! This was great news, as we were in serious need of a mechanism to bring the collective knowledge of Paintballers together into a single medium. During the next couple of months CVRT and LS worked closely together, trashing out ideas and concepts, for a robust portal for the Paintball community. Then in January 2008 we launched http://wiki.covertpaintball.co.za Working with Ashley was a pleasure, not only did we share common interests outside the scope of the “wiki” but the dedication and professionalism was beyond measure (remember the Wiki was FREE). Thank you LightSpeed.
Ashley’s business is very service orientated. They made every impossible little feature we asked for happen with a smile. We will definitely work with LightSpeed again as we are very satisfied with their product. They are definitely our social media marketing development company of choice.
