From the first moment we spoke to Cyndi we knew we were on the right track. Right out of the gate she knew what we needed and how to get us there. She provided us with a one stop shop and handled the creation of our new graphics, hosting issues, transfers of materials from our old site while giving us the ability to develop portals we need for multi-media content. More importantly Cyndi put up with our ridiculous schedule, made payments a snap to perform and made adjustments to our site quickly and easily.
