It's a fact, people love Deft Creative.......!
The presence of what I now call the 'Deft Magic' became apparent from the start.
Steve embraced our vision, developed it and turned it into a website we
are very proud to have. Both his creative and insightful strengths teamed
up with his patience and the 'Deft Magic' is more than one could ask for.
Thank you very much. I look forward to working with you on future developments
with our website and design.
Chris Pietrek, m:tech Education Services
When I started to develop a logo and a website-layout for my product, I did not have a clear vision of where this journey should end. The process was very important for me to discover what I actually was looking for. Steve's willingness to create prototypes was crucial. He surprised me with several great design ideas and with tremendous patience. In the end he somehow managed to bring all my suggestions in one final design. It was a pleasure to work with him.

Mary Penley Fine Artists are delighted with the site created for them by Deft Creative. They are a very professional,friendly company to work with,who de-mystified the whole process. We have no hesitation in recommending their services and look forward to an ongoing association.

I was absolutely delighted with the work carried out for us for our International Distributor Conference in Athens.Working with Steve was a pleasure, he understood our requirements very clearly after just one meeting, and came back with numerous versions of the various Flash presentations until we got the results we wanted. Steve was so easy to work with, the quality of work was great and the end result excellent and good value for money. I'm sure it helped towards making the 2007 Conference our most successful one ever. I would certainly look to work with Deft again on future projects.
Sally Dobinson, Duplo International
Steve at Deft was highly recommended to me when I was looking at getting my website re-designed. I'd had several bad experiences with web designers but I found Steve to be really patient, thorough but fast working and everything designed for me was perfect for my unique service. I would highly recommend him myself, and would happily discuss my experiences with anyone thinking of contacting Deft for their own projects. There's no need to risk contacting any other inferior web designers again.
Scott Bryant, Active Bryant Systems
We think Steve has the patience of a saint alongside fabulous technical skills and that all important... Sense of humour.
We are extremely happy with the animated flash game that Steve has produced for us to use as a viral marketing tool to launch the second single for one of our artists. It's very exciting to be able to use this sort of marketing tool and because Steve has done such a great job on it - we have drawn the support of some larger brands who wish to participate with us on this marketing activity which will give the whole activity much more kudos.
So it's a huge thanks from us - and we'll be back!!
Vikki Meagher, The Junk Label
After many months of searching for a reliable, conscientious and more
importantly talented web design company we found Deft Creative. We had
seen many templates from other design companies which had not come close
to our ideas. After a meeting with Steve our ideas were realised in the
first template idea…why had we wasted so much time with the other design
companies! Steve gave us some great ideas and management over the download
and news content through an easy to use online page. We are so pleased
with our own site that we now refer all leads for web design work to Deft
Creative.
David Cooper, RW Communications Ltd
Steve is a consumate professional. We gave him a tricky task - design, develop and deliver a website for a network of consultants spread across the UK, providing input at varied and odd times and incapable of making a quick decision! Not only did he complete the task with good grace and expert customer service but the final product is a great piece of work. All of us are extremely happy with the site and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Steve's services to colleagues and friends alike.
Thanks a million.
Simon Phillips, The Network
One of the main requirements when deciding who to use for the design and implementation of our website was a company who offer a personalised service, 'holding our hands' along the way. RIF Worldwide specialise in international freight forwarding, not web design.
In chosing Deft Creative we found a company who did exactly that. From start to finish, jargon was avoided and we were guided through the entire process. What we asked for was done, along with some good ideas that we alone would never have thought of.
I would have no hesitation at all in recommending the services of Deft
Creative.
Scott Sully, RIF Worldwide
Working with Deft Creative has been a positive experience from start to finish. Tasked with not only a tricky and unique concept project, Deft Creative have shown patience and skill and in delivering a website that breaks conventional moulds and in many areas had to be improvised to fit an ever-evolving brief. It has been and I have no doubt will continue to be a pleasure to work with Steve and his team over the course of a relationship that will be an ongoing one.
Khaled Abdullah, The Right Result Ltd
"We have been delighted with the first class service that Deft Creative have
provided and are extremely pleased with our new company website. We to
wanted to run our two business units from the same website, which was
initially quite a tricky task, but Deft have made the process hassle free
and we have turned the project around in a lot less time than we had initially
anticipated. I have personally found Steve a pleasure to work with and
will have no hesitation in working with him again on future projects."
Jenny Moore, RED Communications
I wish I had found you first before I went down the "build your own site" route. Regret this avenue big time!"
Suzanne West, The Business VA
"Deft Creative have provided a first rate service, developing and designing
our site exactly to our specifications. We have been particularly impressed
with the design quality, attention to detail and functionality that has
been reflected on our site. The passion for good design, and an excellent
commercial knowledge has definately shown through in our relationship
for which we are extremely grateful. I can't recommend the services of
Deft Creative stronly enough!"
Mark Beakhouse, Apartment in the City
Very efficient service, the new website looks great, we were able to
work in partnership and Steve interpreted our ideas spot on.
Clive Robinson, Direct Works
Steve has produced the highest quality company graphics, logos, presentations,
screensavers and animations for us at The Global Law Group. He is also
very swift, polite, trustworthy and cost effective. Consequently, I would
highly recommend him to anyone - and I don't tend to make recommendations
at all!
Robert Quaranta, Global Law Group
A multi talented, one-stop shop! All you ever needed to know about web
sites and more. Steve has worked on some pretty diverse projects using
HTML and Flash with us for nearly two years. In honesty, he is our 'go
to' man. Totally reliable, always sees the bigger picture and offers a
direct solution. No IT geek terminology, just simple plain English explanations
to questions we raise. He gives us the confidence to push new boundaries
for OUR clients projects.
Adrian Hargreaves, Partner, The Creative Department
I've found you to have been extremely flexible and accommodating in meeting all my demands often at short notice. I would certainly use Deft Creative again and would not hesitate to recommend your services to others.
Colin Campbell, Atos Origin
"Steve is very reliable and delivers what he promises. Nice Person!
Great Website designer and developer! Very impressive. "
Walter Deffer, Cartagena Capital
"I was very pleased with the exceptional level of professionalism and skill that Deft Creative offered me when designing and building my website. I regularly receive compliments on both the layout and the aesthetic of my site. I would thoroughly recommend this service."
Matt Domino, Matt Domino Music
"Steve is one of those rare business gems. No nonsense, knowledgable and hugely responsive. He offered assistance when I struggled to write a website and produced for me a great little biz-card as a holding page for my site before it gets launched. I echo Walter Deffor's comment - Steve really does deliver and he does so in an incredibly helpful and intuitive way.
Use him! You will not regret making the contact, I promise!"
Suzanne West, The Business VA
I cannot recommend the service of Steve and Deft Creative strongly enough.
They have updated and enhanced our web site in record time at minimal
cost. Their patience in understanding our business and our needs was really
appreciated. Steve researched the industry and identified relevant images
for us to select from. He has been extremely flexible under what were
sometimes trying circumstances and spoke our language rather than baffling
us with techo-speak. We will continue to use him to maintain our sight
and rely on him to keep us informed of updates that may be necessary.
Janet Russell, Operations Director, IQ Field Marketing
I was delighted to have found Deft Creative through Ecademy, when I needed
2 websites built extremely urgently. I contacted Steve on a Thursday with
a Monday deadline. He took complete control of the project and worked
all hours God sent over the weekend and really came up trumps. The work
delivered was fantastic and exactly what I had in mind. I will definitely
turn to him again for any web design work as he is very friendly and creative.
He also does not talk or act like a typical techie [smile] If you want
something unique and fit for the purpose which doesn't cost the earth,
give Steve a call.
Louisa Nunn, Your42
Just a quick note to say a big thank you for the newsletters! The printers
delivered today and we are all very impressed, they have come out fantastic
and the design looks great...we will definitely be doing this on a quarterly
basis from now on with your help. Thanks again.
David Cooper, RW Communications Ltd
As a London-based marketing agency, over the past few years we have vast experience
of using web-design companies for projects, with a varying degree of satisfaction
and success. We have been using Deft Creative for over a year now, and
we could not be more impressed by their service. All sites have been produced
with a huge amount of attention to detail, which by no means has affected
the turnaround time of projects, infact projects are always completed
on (or before) time and within budget. Deft Creative give a professional
service which is reliable, friendly and forward thinking, and we see them
as an integral part of the growth of our company as an outsourced service
Peter Jolly, Account Manager, TCD
For nearly 2 years, we searched for a web design company that understands our market and mission. Our search ended with Deft Creative. Steve turned our design ideas into a web "experience" in a matter of days. We are 100% satisfied and enjoy the daily compliments that our site receives. We highly recommend Deft and plan to work with Steve on all of our future web projects. Simply put, Deft is the best!
Randall Bake, CMF, MetalFarm.com
Simple, intuitive, professional... these are just a few words to describe the quality of work and service that we received from Deft Creative. This is just the beginning, and, no doubt, there will be more work to come. Highly recommended.
Jacques Ghorayeb, Visual Notes Ltd
I like Steve. He's a great website designer and will give you a great personal service with integrity and reliability. I would not hesitate to recommend his services if you're considering a website upgrade or a fresh new look. He has plenty of exciting new ideas to make you stand out.
Tim Coe, Hands On Properties
Steve has just completed the Cameron Nichols website. We're delighted with the end result. We've had lots of positive comments and some business referrals!!
Steve was brilliant throughout the process, he came up with great designs, didn't seem phased when we halted things half way through to change our logo (which he also did!!) and colour scheme. He even created a document to let us play with the colour schemes until our little PR hearts were content.
Steve worked well with the team here at Cameron Nichols and we will be working with him again, as he has agreed to take on another website for our sister company.
Thank you Steve ... it was fun and cost effective and you have endless patience!
Wendy Craddock, Cameron Nichols
