Andy’s Recommendations:
“When it comes to MOSS 2007 architecture, configuration and installations Andy knows a vast amount. When I worked with him on a Document Management System project he was capable of reviewing existing installations and architecture, and offering advice on performance, implementing SSL and documenting all of his findings. At all times he was professional and a pleasure to work with and I would have no hesitation in recommending Andy’s work.” January 30, 2008
