Scandiweb Reviews & Testimonials

Digital Advertising Review from Marc Casper
For the digital marketing portion of the project, Scan tracked growth and engagement on our social media platforms. It was clear that their work directly drove growth in our online presence. On the web development side, our investors and internal executive stakeholders were impressed with their work. Its too early to truly gauge the value of the site, but in the immediate term, those who didn't like the old site have really liked the new one.They were great with structuring regular Zoom calls to keep everything on track. Outside of these calls, we communicated via email and Basecamp.

Digital Advertising Review from Amanda Watts
In our email marketing campaigns, we've seen a 25% return on investment. Our PPC ROI is 250%. They've found a way to attract an audience to our site despite safety training not being an objectively exciting subject.Their project management skills are fantastic. They report progress to us multiple times a day, which keeps me happy. Scandiweb is always in touch with us to make sure we know how everything is going. We never have to chase them down about anything.

eCommerce Development Review from JOSHUA MARGOLIS
The purpose of this project is to redesign the existing website with a modern, user-friendly interface and integrate a custom checkout system tailored for subscription-based services. The new design will enhance the user experience, improve site performance, and streamline the subscription process to increase conversions and customer retention.The speed at which you completed the project without compromising on quality is truly impressive. Not only did you meet our tight deadlines, but the site also looks modern, runs smoothly, and the functionality has been greatly improved.Your attention to detail, responsiveness, and ability to quickly address any feedback or issues along the way made the whole process seamless. This upgrade has already made a significant difference, and we couldn't be happier with the results.

e9digital Reviews & Testimonials

Web Development Review from Eric Lituchy
I've been working with e9 digital since 2017. Their team is by far the best website development firm we've EVER worked with! As an owner of a marketing agency, we often get web projects that require collaboration with a trusted partner. E9 is the partner we turn to for everything WordPress-related. Their team does it all - from simple website enhancements to making a website ADA compliant or full website builds (their specialty). On time and on budget - e9 is an outstanding partner!

Web Development Review from Helen Todd
e9 is my website development company of choice! Not only are they the FATEST responding team that I've ever worked with, they also do great work. The aspect I appreciate and applaud them the most about is their accessibility work which I wish was standard in the industry. e9 is paving the way and making sure more websites are accessible. e9 currently manages our website and I have peace of mind that nothing will go wrong or if so, it'll be swiftly and expertly addressed. We also collaborated on a shared client and the client has only positive things to say which makes me even more confident to continue to recommend e9!

Web Development Review from Adam Winokur
When it was time to move my business to a professionally built and maintained website, e9digital was the only place I was going to go. They are freiendly, attentive and so knowledgeable that at no point was I worried about the end product. The team knew nothing about my industry, but devoted the time and resources needed to understand who my target audience is and make a website design that fit my needs. The site looks great, stays maintained, ADA compliant, and I know when I need something changed that I cannot handle, the e9digital team can do it. It's one area of my business where I now don't need to stress over. I can't wait to do my next website refresh with them.

Handbook Reviews & Testimonials

Web Development Review from Liz Ryan
Handbook handles our website development and web-based front end product development. From the initial concept to the final launch, the team always demonstrates a deep understanding of our needs, and delivers on the requirements quickly and completely.If you're looking for a skilled, reliable, and innovative website developer, I highly recommend Handbook. They have been a fantastic partner, and we look forward to working with them again in the future!

Web Development Review from Victoria Lee
I can count on one hand the number of companies Ive worked with in my career that possess the same level of dedication, responsiveness, attention to detail, and trustworthiness as that of an internal team and thats because theres only one: Handbook.First and foremost, Id like to say that if you're considering working with Handbook for your design and/or website development needs, you absolutely will not regret it. The Handbook team goes beyond simply executing our requests, which has not only been refreshing but has also been key to our growth as an online SaaS business.Handbook genuinely cares about our user experience, website performance, and broader business goals. Instead of just implementing what we ask for, they actively evaluate our needs and offer thoughtful recommendations to improve our outcomes.In addition to the quality of work and forward-thinking perspective, we know that we can count on Handbook to be there when we need them. From countless late-night sale asset takedowns to weekend staging QAs so we can feel confident about Monday morning launches, I have never experienced this level of communication and dedication from a company.I would recommend Handbook time and time again to absolutely anyone in need of web development, design, or messaging support. These guys are a rare find and your only regret will be that you didn't start working with them sooner.

Web Design Review from ✌🏻Jason Steele
Pat and team are great web designers and developers who have really helped us out in multiple areas of web design and development. Trustworthy, easy to communicate with, and I feel like they go the extra mile. Will definitely work with the team again.
