What do clients say?

In the end, results matter and the client is our focus. Don’t take our word for it, hear what clients say…

Tech Minded is an incredible resource that any organization should be using for technology needs including cloud, telecom, connectivity and other services.

We’ve been using Tech Minded for years, and time and time again, they not only find us the right solution, but they get us a better deal than we could get on our own. We even had existing contracts that were well negotiated, and even those were as much as 50% higher cost, with less services, than what Tech Minded was able to get us.

It didn’t take me long to get into the habit of asking our Tech Minded contact about any technology needs that come up – and I’m continually surprised at the breadth of what is at their fingertips.”

Joshua Brooks

IT Director, Sports Warehouse

Over the past three years, I’ve benefitted from the explanations, and thoughts of strategic use of technology from the principles behind Technology Minded. Immediately after winning the election to City Council, I was assigned to our city’s Technology Committee with the task of determining the possibilities of using technology to benefit our city, residents and businesses. Obviously, discussion on issues like broadband and wireless, not to mention the possibility of trenching every street within the city limits to lay fiber, launched me into unfamiliar territory — seemingly as big as the universe itself.

From the onset, the explanations I received became an ongoing reliable source for information … presenting the magnitude of complexities in a way that was not only digestible, but also allowed me to understand all the relationships among technologies, and their application. I cannot imagine navigating these issues without these explanations — I highly recommend you take advantage of them as well.

Mayor Pro-Tem, City of Westlake Village

I’ve known the principles behind Technology Minded for over 30 years. They are business people that understand both the language of tech and of commerce; technology experts that are equally business experts. I’ve found them to have a unique skill set – integrating the languages of business and technology to be clear, succinct, and articulate.

I’ve always found that those that really know what they are talking about can explain it quickly, and avoid confusion. That’s why I appreciate their explanations, and how it applies to my interests.

“The Technology Strategy created above and beyond expectations, providing a historical understanding of the district’s current state, as well as a pathway to rapid and effective advancement. As the study progressed, many of its eventual recommendations became clear along the way, enabling positive changes in existing operations even prior to the delivery of the final strategy document.

A number of such specific recommendations were included in the final Strategy, along with broad direction and a framework for sustainability – a dynamic approach to progress that would not become obsolete.

I am extremely satisfied with the work done by Neil Ticktin and his company on behalf of our school district, and I believe it will provide a foundation for significant advancement for many years to come.”

Dave Moorman

President, Board of Education, Las Virgenes Unified School District

Conversations with my IT staff have always been a frustrating experience because of the disconnect between business objectives and the technology being employed to achieve those objectives. Because of the complexity with the ever evolving technology landscape, it is difficult to tell if the IT staff are providing real solutions or just selling the latest and greatest technology, without any regard to the real needs of my business.

I appreciate the Tech Minded team’s approach to explain technologies so that I can understand them, make sure I understand the impact of the various options, and help guide me to the solution best fitted for my business. The Tech Minded team provides a perspective that business owners and executives need to make strategic technology decisions.

“Xplain Corporation [Tech Minded] is an organization professional to the core. No matter what the problem is, the answer is always “We can solve that! No problem!” It may take quite a bit of shuffling on their part, but you’ll never know – those issues are transparent. And they deliver. What more can you ask for from a service provider?”
