Umbraco-udvikling og support

At Seeland International we rely heavily on a workflow with a partner that can deliver both ad-hoc solutions on a day to day basis as well as full scale projects with dedicated resources and experts working together to deliver. At 1902 Software we have found such a partner and are very satisfied with the quality of the work and the professionalism of the team behind.

Our collaboration with 1902 Software has been excellent. Communication runs smoothly and the results are just we envisioned them - thumbs up.

We looked to 1902 to assist us to update our existing Umbraco sites and to provide over flow capacity when we needed it. I was extremely pleased with how quickly the team were able to familiarise themselves with our environment and become productive. In addition to achieving our development tasks the 1902 team have constantly added additional value by providing valuable insights and suggestions for improvements. They have also been able to take high level concepts and develop them in their entirety with very little oversight which has been terrific. We have also been very impressed with the level of testing completed and the resulting quality of work delivered. We see 1902 as an ongoing partner that enhances our capability to deliver.

Jeg var skeptisk over for at outsource dele af vores udvikling hos Amino, da mit andet firma SPAMfighter har haft store udfordringer med et outsourcing projekt. Men jeg kunne se at 1902 fik meget ros i Aminos debatforum og jeg bestemte mig derfor for at tage chancen og lade 1902 lave vores nyeste service Amino Freelancer. Projektet er lykkedes til fulde og vi har fået en super flot service, som vi er meget glade for. Der er ingen tvivl om at 1902 skal hjælpe os med den næste service.

Gennem de seneste par år har vi måtte konstatere, at en større del af vores trafik er forsvundet fra det traditionelle web og over på mobile platforme. Derfor valgte vi at tage skridtet og lave et responsive website, så de besøgende på Min-Mave nemmere ville kunne bruge sitet samt dens forum, uanset om de sidder ved computeren, ammer eller er ude at gå tur med barnevognen. Vi har tidligere, med tilfredshed, arbejdet med 1902 på mindre projekter, så valget var ganske enkelt. Efter at have snakket projektet overordnet igennem fik vi et estimat og designskitser, som passede ind på et nyt og moderne site, men som stadig bibeholdte følelsen fra det gamle site. Kontakten og den daglige opfølgning har fungeret suverænt, og man mærker egentlig ikke, at projektet laves på den anden side af kloden og i en helt anden tidszone. Resultatet er både vi og vore brugere meget tilfredse med. Der skal altså lyde stor ros til hele teamet og ikke mindst til projektlederen Jerome, som både er meget behagelig, kommunikativ og bestemt ikke uden humor, hvilket gør det hele meget sjovere.

The system consisted of a centralized database having 28 clients located all over Mongolia stretching across 2 time-zones , however as the communication facilities were limited and 7/24 online access was out of the question, the data transfer had to be kept to the absolute minimum as well as each client needed to have its own decentralized database. As the number of vehicles in Mongolia is fairly limited (about 150,000 in 2003), the databases were based on MSDE 2000, having a maximum capacity of 1,000,000 vehicle records, with the possibility to upgrade to a regular SQL server later if required. The unique part of the system is the data-exchange between the server and the clients, relying on an absolutely minimum quantity of data to be exchanged.  To keep the central database up-to-date, updates are generated and sent by a zipped and encrypted email from each Client at the end of the working day using a dial-up connection or LAN connection; during the night the central database is updated with the data from all 28 clients and an updated is returned to the clients thereafter (excluding each client's own data). The client database is subsequently updated at the start of the following working day ensuring that the content of all databases is identical by the morning. A log is generated for these transactions and reports are automatically produced keeping the Administrator informed about the status of each client database. The system was developed keeping in mind that it should be fully automated and that training of Operators should be kept to a minimum. The user-interfaces are all in Mongolian using locally developed fonts, as the standard Cyrillic fonts are missing two Mongolian letters. Needless to say that the system includes procedures for back-up of data to be able to restore partially or completely lost data at any location, as well as tools to deal with clients that temporary has lost means of email communication; they would be (snail)mailed a specially generated CD with regular intervals. Also clients can generate CDs for mailing with data that they otherwise cannot send. Kampsax A/S was very satisfied with the cooperation with 1902; particularly 1902's handling of changes and modifications during the development phase was outstanding. The interaction between our staff and those of 1902 was flawless and very productive. All communicate and test was done online. The undersigned recently met with the Client were the performance of the system was discussed and it was particularly satisfying to learn that the system was working well and completely flawless.

Vi har benyttet 1902 i forbindelse med udviklingen af vores hjemmeside. Samarbejdet med Paul og de øvrige medarbejdere har fungeret glimrende hele processen igennem, og vi står derfor i dag med et produkt, vi er rigtigt godt tilfredse med. Teamet har leveret varen både, når vi har haft helt konkrete ønsker for et projekt, og når vi har søgt sparring i forhold til udviklingen af siden. Jeg kan derfor klart anbefale 1902 som samarbejdspartner.

Vi har nu i knap halvandet år haft 1902Software som fast it-leverandør. Samarbejdet kan meget kort beskrives som helt fantastisk. Vi er meget tilfredse. 1902Software fungerer ikke bare som en it-leverandør men har gennem hele projektet haft rollen som en slags strategisk samarbejdspartner, der hele vejen gennem processen har rådgivet og sørget for, at vi har taget de rigtige beslutninger ift. teknologi, brugervenlighed og nye tiltag. Resultatet af vores samarbejde har i dag betydet at vi står med et afsindigt skarpt produkt som er på forkant med, og total up-to-date med nutidens teknologier. Jeg vil til enhver tid anbefale 1902Software

Det har på alle måder været en stor fornøjelse at samarbejde med 1902 Software. Vi har fået implementeret et website på baggrund af et PhotoShop design, som vores danske grafiker havde udviklet. Opgaven blev løst til tiden, til prisen og til en kvalitet, som på ingen måde er et kompromis med vores høje forventninger. Vi vil uden skygge af tvivl igangsætte webopgaver hos 1902 Software igen og jeg kan kun anbefale andre at gøre det samme. Man hører ofte at når man outsourcer til lavtlønsområder, så samarbejder man med mennesker, som "ikke kan tænke selv". Det er det rene vrøvl i forhold til 1902 Software. Jeg har kun mødt præcis den omtanke, som jeg er vant til i samarbejdet med danske leverandører.
