Testimonials

Hear what some of our customers have to say about us:

I have been working with Keith Hicks for over 20 years and have always found him to be an excellent developer. His knowledge and skills are first-rate. Keith has a keen awareness of usability, efficiency and security, and always takes all three into account when working on a project.

Keith Hicks, one of the principals at Quintesoft, LLC, has been a real find for us. After losing our resident programmer to a serious illness, we were lost as to what we were going to do with our database design and maintenance. After an exhaustive search for more than 2 years, with much trial and error, we finally hooked up with Keith, who analyzed our situation, quickly deciphered what had been done up to the point of his review, made great suggestions, and we have been working together ever since. I can honestly say that Keith has been a real godsend for us as he has maintained our lifeline database for the last several years, introducing innovative concepts and designs, and always readily available any time an emergency comes up. Reliability, expertise, and follow through are the 3 top characteristics I have experienced with Keith.

The biggest asset KitchenTools PCMS™ has provided my company is in the vendor purchasing area. Because the program has the ability to compare the cost of raw materials from many suppliers I am confident in knowing that I am making purchases at the lowest possible price. This not only saves my company money; but I am also able to pass the savings along to my customers. Because we procure our inventory at the best price available in our market we are able to accrue many new customers based on our low sandwich prices compared to our competitors.

The KitchenTools PCMS™ software has reduced the number of programs we need to run our business efficiently. In the past we had to use several different programs to keep track of payables, receivables, inventory, and production. Now, all of these features and more are conveniently located in one program. This saves both time and confusion. Any employee can be trained to use KitchenTools PCMS™ in a quick and efficient manor.

When I first worked with Keith to create a custom database application to run my landscaping business he was working for a small programming company in Michigan. A few years ago he started his own company, Quintesoft, LLC. Due to his expertise and reliability I decided to stay with him after his move. I had a fairly tight budget to work with when I first started the project and Keith respected that. He was able to put something together to suit my needs without spending a fortune. Over the years new needs have come up and Keith has been able to get right back in there and take care of those needs quickly and reasonably. If you're looking for a reliable company to do custom database programming for you, you won't be disappointed

- Chuck Deland - Meadowbrook Services (Farmington Hills, MI)


Our company has used Keith Hicks exclusively for all of our Fox-Pro programming needs. We have consistently received the highest quality of work. All of our deadlines were met, even when a rush job was needed with an immediate turn-around time. We are extremely satisfied with their performance, and we will continue to use them in the future.

- Kim Moore - Aon Risk Services (Southfield, MI)


I had a need to advertise my talent and abilities to a wide audience. As an artist, developing an identity through a web site was on the docket. Easy enough to do but finding the right person to do it was critical. I needed a person who not only had the technical know-how, but also someone who had an artistic sensibility-- an ability to see the big picture in a creative manner. Add the need for good communication to these requirements and what you have is Keith. My project could not have turned out better. What is left with this experience is great respect for him and the quality he brings to the table. Many thanks, Keith.

Keith designed our custom MS Access Data Base program in 2001. The design is easy to use and is perfectly suited for our business from scheduling classes, tracking students, and billing tuition. His friendly personal service did not end once the program was delivered and he has continually been supportive and quick with any program updates, as our business needs have changed.

- Kathy Bailey - The Childrens' Music Academy (Santa Barbara, CA)


Our company, a 1,000 acre apple and pear grower, packer, and shipper in Northeastern Washington, came to Keith Hicks several years ago with our Microsoft Access based shipping program. It was outdated and was no longer meeting our needs. Keith was able to take information in an industry that he essentially knew nothing about and ask the right questions to design an excellent custom software design program for us.

We came to Keith with two major reports that we needed. Keith's first project with us was to design a custom block return that helped us analyze what blocks in the orchard were profitable and which ones were not. The second project was to design an automated grower payment that would take information from all sales on a per order basis and generate a monthly statement for our outside growers that we pack for.

There were also existing reports and problems that we had in our old program that Keith corrected for us. Not only did he help with reports that benefited the managers from a budget analysis standpoint but he also helped the end-user with making existing features of our program more user friendly.

We would be happy to recommend Keith Hicks for any of your custom software designing needs. He completes projects in an extremely timely manner and he has always been available at anytime to answer any questions. We have always been happy with the excellent caliber of his work.
