What Some Of Our Customers Say
"Our Company has had associations with the principles of Clearwater
Consultancy for some ten years now. During this time we have enlisted their
help and expertise in major project work in addition to daily support with the
running of our data processing systems. In 2001, we embarked in a total
re-write of our Company‘s operating system, converting from a DOS based
environment to a windows platform. We also took the opportunity to introduce
many new aspects of processing, control and security which was made so much
easier due to the involvement of the programmers in our business. This was a
massive undertaking for our Company which proved to be highly successful, due
to this involvement, as very often we received advice and guidance in areas
that we would have not initially considered. Latterly, we have been working
with Clearwater in automating our companies business in the field with staff
using PDA‘s and communicating directly with the office systems. Once
again, their understanding of our business has proved invaluable in the
development of this system which has such a major impact on our operations.
This project is still ongoing but the availability and knowledge of the
principles is unquestionable. As the Managing Director of Independent
Inspections I can, without any reservations whatsoever, recommend utilising the
services of Clearwater Consultancy for any I.T development and or support."
Niall Pollard, Managing Director,
Independent Inspections Ltd
"Clearwater’s consultants combine technical proficiency with a real
understanding of our business needs. After 20 years of working with software
suppliers, I know that it’s very rare to find such reliable and user-friendly
support."
Judy Anderson, Legacy Marketing Manager,
Help the Aged
FirstClass is quite simply the most effective database I/we have ever used. It
combines an easy-to-use format with the flexibility to incorporate and develop
sophisticated programs that can be tailor-made to suit any charity. The
Clearwater team provides a gold star/excellent back up at all times. Working
with them is an interesting challenge as well as good fun.
Not the least benefit to the charities that use it is the ongoing development
and improvement to the database, due to the regular flow of suggestions for
improvement and change from the user charities to Clearwater, and the rapid
incorporation of suggestions into the system. This is a democratic database
that works with its users rather than as a dictator.
Kirsteen Hornsby, Help the
Aged
I have been using FirstClass for four years now and it was an invaluable tool
as World Vision started out on the legacy fundraising path. Recently, I have
been able to adapt FirstClass to record details about our in memoriam donors
and distinguish between legacy and in memoriam income. The reporting
functionality is invaluable, we can run a report in minutes and it‘s
effortless. I wouldn‘t be able to do my job efficiently without it.
Karen Vinten, World Vision
We find First Class invaluable in managing our workload. The ability to scan
documents onto FirstClass has enabled us to dispense with many paper files and
allows remote access to our cases as well as being able to circulate documents
such as property surveys to a large group of charities without the effort of
faxing and photocopying. The creation of new files has been made much easier
because of both the ability to download Smee & Ford notifications and the
address search function. Above all the system is extremely user friendly.
