AES | customer/partner reviews

Dave Rippon, Head of OD, Sunderland City Council, UK

AES Qualities: Customer centric, Creative, Good Pricing. Short timescales. One Stop Shop.

"From introduction through to date our relationship with AES has been an excellent business partnership. We have found them to be people centric software developers which is critical to the nature of our project. AES demonstrated their value as partn...ers at the outset, contributing at the ideas stage, with real enthusiasm. Un-phased by our need to see a working service before committing to incurring costs and keen to work with very realistic pricing structures for licensing, AES have developed an excellent price model for the service.

Because of the short timescale we were working to we needed a ICT partner capable of building systems with phenomenal speed, and AES have worked tirelessly to develop easy to use software. One particularly valuable asset of their service is that they provide 2 versions of the software, a Live version for daily use and a test system which can be used both for training and for testing out system updates. In addition AES has provided excellent manuals as well as and on going support for our recruitment team, which is on demand, by phone, email and if necessary, face to face.

AES has been the ideal business partner. Nothing has been too much trouble for their staff, and they understand that partnership is about going the extra mile and that return on partnership is not solely financial. The service provided by our partnership with AES has been extremely good value for money, with annual ROI occurring after only 2 employees placed, thus maximising the savings necessary from government requirements. Although AES have provided an easy in – easy out approach to licensing their service, the success of the service thus far makes the relationship with AES a long term partnership. We unreservedly recommend them.

Ralph Pickles, Managing Director, Helmsway Ltd UK

AES Qualities: Partnership Working, Great Value, Right first time

"I have been a client of Lesley and AES Digital Solutions for more than 20 years during my time with Marlow Foods, Sensient Technologies and more recently working in business development. The relationships have always been true partnerships, with Lesl...ey developing a sound understanding of my businesses which has allowed AES to develop software that meets and exceeds business’ needs, without at realistic costs.

Customer service and help desk support has been excellent, which is why I come back project after project. Lesley has always been prepared to travel to any part of the world to install systems and train personnel, coping well with cultural and language challenges.

AES has always been able to rise to each challenge and has developed both small projects and large suites of programs for me, which have always worked well right from go-live.

Joe Aubuchon, Senior Vice President, Tarnow Associates. USA

AES Qualities: Great Results, High Integrity, Creative.

"Outstanding in designing and creating a system to manage the global intellectual property of the company that would allow the transfer and sharing of information in a secure environment. Also excellent in handling the creation of a system in an envir...onment where we as users had difficulty designing what it was that we needed in an ever changing global function that would need regular inputs in regulations from various entities around the globe.

Extremely patient and helpful in trying to get to the root of an issue and then working back to how we could then manage the issue. Joe and his team at AES were great to work with and had to completely understand our business and issues to create what we needed.

They had to virtually become experts in very complex parts of our business and Joe in particular spent countless hours working to understand our needs as well as we did. I highly recommend the people at AES.

AES have always been at the leading edge of technologie...s in developing solutions for their customers, and the ethos of providing good, sound solutions rather than selling products has driven AES over the years.

Lesley Spencer, m people Manager, Manchester City Council. UK

AES Qualities: Flexible, First Class, Go the extra mile.

"As part of the large-scale and ongoing redesign of the Council’s services, a key component of delivering mobility in internal jobs for m people is a first class role matching system. This process is evolving and complex, and we need software that h...as a flexible matching capability. We also required a powerful data warehousing system, which would permit reporting on the progress of the project.

We searched the UK for suitable systems, which could match our requirements and went through a specification process which resulted in only one supplier whose product matched our needs, and who were prepared to go the extra mile to work as partners with m people.
