Testimonials

Endorsements from past clients

"I have faced a close to unprecedented situation where the Server Hosting company crashed our servers, and cause a data corruption to our Database. it happens, but this happened and caused many months loss of data for too many clients. backups were damaged, and situation was as bleak as it gets. The only thing that could help was really a commitment and a proper communication with a DB Master such like atif. he spent alot of time with us on this, and was very helpful and communicated what we as we went on with the recovery. he was such life saver really helped save our data and the company from going under "
