Big Data Analytics Review from Nathaniel Ru
We partnered with Kanerika to support our Big Data Analytics initiatives and augment our internal data engineering team. As our data needs continued to grow, we needed experienced professionals who could quickly integrate with our team and help us improve data processing, reporting, and analytics capabilities. Our experience with Kanerika was very positive from start to finish. Their team was knowledgeable, responsive, and easy to work with. They took the time to understand our requirements, listened carefully to feedback, and adapted quickly whenever priorities changed. The engineers they provided integrated smoothly with our existing team and consistently delivered quality work. One thing that stood out was their responsiveness. Whenever we had questions, requests, or needed adjustments, their team reacted quickly and ensured issues were addressed without unnecessary delays. Communication remained clear throughout the engagement, which made collaboration straightforward and efficient. The project outcomes met our expectations, and the additional expertise helped us move faster on several data-related initiatives. Overall, Kanerika proved to be a reliable partner for both Big Data Analytics and Staff Augmentation, and we would be happy to work with them again in the future.

Big Data Analytics Review from Steven Poelman
Kanerika made a team for us to discuss the details and develop Power BI project. 3 personal dashboards were also planned and designed. Firstly the architecture of the system was created and implemented. The dashboards for heads of departments were developed and tested by the reconciliation dashboard too. Finally we got the staff training for interactive analytics dashboards usage. Power BI system has highlighted the efficiency of our working process. After tracking the efficiency we rose the sales for 20%, offer more client oriented service, and have budget prediction. Professional team service for great cost. Kanerika showcased awesome automation of business analysis and regularly updated reports.

Big Data Analytics Review from David Abelyan
The Kanerika team helped us create online meeting capabilities to meet with candidates online, view video profiles and message. All these online features are great for our application but what makes our solution unique is that all these are tied to the candidate profile, hiring position organizational needs and overall organizational profile. This creates a strong bond and trust between the organization and the candidate.
We wanted a platform to build long term relationships between organizations and their immediate and future needs and candidates who may want to explore opportunities now or build a relationship for a future opportunity. Kanerika worked with our team to understand our changing requirements and delivered technical solutions incrementally using an agile approach. Organizations can store and update their profiles, job requirements and track each hiring process.
Their philosophy of investing in clients and view of client success as their own was unique. Everyone uses the long term relationship as a tagline but Kanerika actually lived up to it.

Web Design Review from Ray Cymrot
We have been working with Rave Digital for the development and management of WheelHero, and our experience has been outstanding.
The entire Rave Digital team has consistently demonstrated professionalism, technical expertise, responsiveness, and a genuine commitment to our success. From website development and ongoing maintenance to implementing new features and resolving issues, they have always provided exceptional service and support.
What stands out most is their dedication to understanding our business needs and delivering solutions that help us grow. Their communication is clear, timely, and transparent, and they are always willing to go the extra mile to ensure projects are completed successfully.
Over the years, Rave Digital has become a trusted partner rather than just a service provider. Their knowledge of e-commerce platforms, attention to detail, and ability to handle complex requirements have been invaluable to the continued success of WheelHero.
We are extremely happy with the quality of their work, the reliability of their team, and the results they have helped us achieve. We highly recommend Rave Digital to any business looking for a dependable, knowledgeable, and customer-focused digital solutions partner.
Thank you to the entire Rave Digital team for your hard work, dedication, and continued support. We look forward to many more years of working together.

Shopify Plus eCommerce Review from Vern Brannum
Working with Rave Digital on our Shopify Plus site felt less like hiring a service provider and more like bringing on a partner who truly understood the quirks and challenges of running a wholesale candy business. Selling candy in bulk isn't just about putting products online it involves managing pack sizes, special promotions, and customers ranging from small shops to large distributors. Our old platform couldn't keep up, leaving us scrambling.
Candy comes in endless flavors, sizes, and assortments, and our old site made customers scroll through countless SKUs, leading to frustration. Rave Digital restructured our product pages so buyers could easily select the exact variation they wanted on a single page. I tested it myself and found it intuitive, and when a wholesale buyer later called saying, Your site finally makes sense, it confirmed the change had real impact.
They reimagined the mobile experience, which is critical because many of our buyers order on their phones while running their stores. Previously, mobile checkout was clunky and full of errors. Rave Digital optimized it so that ordering cases of chocolates on my phone felt as seamless as shopping on a top-tier retail site. A customer even told me she completed her Easter order from her car while waiting to pick up her kids something that would have been impossible before.
What impressed me most was their collaborative approach. In one meeting, we debated how to display mixed candy assortments. Rather than push a single option, they presented three layouts and encouraged us to test them with real buyers. The choice became clear, and it showed their commitment to creating solutions that worked for our customers, not just ticking boxes.
Now, the site feels like an extension of how we want to do business efficient, user-friendly, and stress-free. Rave Digital made it a tool that simplifies wholesale ordering, supports seasonal surges, and gives our customers the smooth, reliable experience they deserve.

Magento Review from Rodney McMullen
As one of the largest grocery retailers in the U.S., Kroger has long understood the value of staying ahead in the digital space. However, the complexity and scale of our eCommerce operations had grown significantly, and our legacy systems were beginning to create bottlenecks across user experience, performance, and operational flexibility.
From the onset, Rave Digital demonstrated a deep understanding of Magento and how it could be strategically used to solve enterprise-level retail challenges. Before a single line of code was written, their team spent significant time embedded with our eCommerce, merchandising, and logistics departments.
They facilitated several strategy workshops, analyzing our existing Magento Commerce setup, identifying inefficiencies in our multi region architecture, and proposing a refined roadmap for rolling out custom modules, integrating third party services, and optimizing workflows.
There are many things we could highlight, but what truly sets Rave Digital apart is their ability to operate as an extension of our internal team.
They are not just solution providers they are collaborators, advisors, and problem solvers. Every member of their team, from the project manager to the senior Magento architects, displayed a deep commitment to quality, accountability, and outcomes. Even when timelines got tight or priorities shifted (as they often do in enterprise environments), Rave was flexible, focused, and always aligned with our goals.
One particularly telling moment came when we were evaluating an AI-based personalization module. Rather than just build what we requested, Rave took the time to prototype both a native Magento based option and a hybrid third party integration. They walked us through performance trade offs, cost implications, and even customer journey mapping all before we had even signed off on development. That level of thoughtfulness and foresight is rare in technical partners.

IT Services Review from Mike Meacham
These guys are seriously awesome! We moved into a new building and had a lot of IT needs. We had some up and coming webinars so we had to work fast. We had a few other companies come by but they weren't very helpful. ProTek came in and explained the process, our options, and the pros-cons of each option so we fully understood how to move forward. They were very attentive to our needs, professional and provided fantastic service. They were very knowledgable and helped us immensely in a short period of time. I'd recommend them to anyone!

ProTek contacted me after a bad review and I must say they did an outstanding job giving me what I asked for. Definitely a quality company despite not getting off on the right foot! The company says they are more geared to serving corporate clients on retainer, but the company is willing to work with individuals in need of tech support. Jonathan and Jon (two different people) were very helpful in getting me back functioning.

I have been using ProTek IT Solutions for over 10 years now. They came in and solved a major issue remotely that two other local firms in Las Vegas were unable to resolve. They have been handling all of our IT on a remote basis since that time. I only had them physically in my office once since I started utilizing their services in 2014. They are intelligent, they know what they are doing and our computers and servers function fantastic 99.9% of the time. It is still frustrating that other .1% of the time when we have issues, but ProTek jumps in and handles it right away. I highly recommend the use of their services.

We have been a Cherwell customer since 2014. Being that we didn't have the resources to create the system we had in mind, Cherwell hooked us up with one of their partners but that initial relationship just didn't pan out. Then we found out about Excalibur. From our initial meeting, we knew we found our forever Cherwell consultant. We have worked with 3 different team members (not including the owner) and each has been a pleasure to work with. They go the extra mile to learn your business so you don't waste time explaining things over and over. Seems they have been a Cherwell partner forever and there hasn't been a question we've asked that they haven't been able to answer. So, it's probably obvious that I would highly recommend them for your next Cherwell project. I think you'll be pleased with your decision.

What services do IT services companies in USA provide?
IT services providers in USA provide a variety of services for modernizing businesses’ IT ecosystems and fortifying their security posture. On account of their nuanced expertise in automation, cloud deployment, cybersecurity, and data systems, these providers are commonly sought to facilitate transition from legacy dependencies to more agile operating setups.
Common services offered by IT services companies encompass:
IT consulting
Custom software development
Cloud hosting and management
Cybersecurity services
Technical support
System integration
Managed IT services
Network support
How much do IT services cost in the US?
US-based IT services providers typically charge between $150 to $250 per hour for break-fix or pay-per-use services. On the other hand, when a managed IT service is in question, the pricing model is determined based on the number of devices or users, ranging from $100 per workstation and$200 per server.
Based on these estimations, businesses can anticipate these price ranges:
Pricing model
Pricing range
Recommended for
Flat rate
$2,000-$3,000 per month
Small and mid-size businesses
Pay-per use
$150-$250 per hour
Businesses with set IT infrastructure
Per user
$100-$200 per user
Businesses enduring expansion
The price can also vary based on the requested service:
Network setup: $1,000-$3,000
Software licensing: $15-200 per user/month
Cybersecurity: $500-$2,500 per month
Data backup and recovery: $150-500 per month
When can clients expect ROI from an IT service?
Return on investment (ROI) from IT services depends on the provided service:
Managed IT support usually shows ROI within 1 to 3 months because it quickly reduces downtime and ticket backlog.
Infrastructure upgrades typically return value in 2 to 6 months because performance improvements are shown almost immediately once the new setup is up.
Cloud migration or modernization is slower, usually 4 to 9 months, as the payback comes after the systems are reconfigured and decommissioned.
DevOps/automation tends to show ROI in 3 to 7 months because it cuts release effort and lowers change-related outages over several cycles.
Cybersecurity programs usually take 6 to 18 months as the biggest returns are reflected in avoided losses.
What are the typical timelines for IT projects across different complexity levels?
There’s no set timeframe for IT projects as some work is largely configuration, while other work requires rethinking how core systems operate together. Approximate timelines are:
Med-complexity projects (up to 3 months): Cloud migrations for small environments, network refreshes, security tool rollouts, backup and DR implementations
Transformational projects (6-12 months): Full infrastructure modernization, large enterprise migrations, data center exits, platform re-architecture
How often do IT firms conduct performance turning after delivery?
Most IT firms do performance tuning in bursts, i.e., right after going live, after major changes, or when metrics show underperformance. If the contract is for managed services, the tuning is done in scheduled frequences.
This is what “typical” looks like in practice:
Hypercare (right after delivery): weekly or even daily tuning for 2-6 weeks while usage stabilizes and early issues surface.
Managed services: light tuning monthly for review metrics and quick fixes, and a deeper optimization quarterly for capacity planning and bottleneck analysis.
Project-only handoff (no ongoing contract): tuning is usually ad hoc, only when there’s a complaint, incident, or a planned upgrade.
