YIKES has been exceptionally easy to work with. They took time to carefully understand what we were trying to accomplish and then tailor fit a solution to meet our needs. They have been responsive and attentive to our organization’s concerns and requests throughout our website migration process.

YIKES took our website from a hacked mess to a beautiful, stable display of what Kimberton Whole Foods is really all about.

It is a pleasure working with YIKES! They are always responsive and work hard to educate the consumer. Before the website goes live, they gave our team a two hour, in-person tutorial. Afterwards, they continue to work with us to make changes and enhancements. They were not happy until we were happy! We recommend YIKES without hesitation!

YIKES did a great job overhauling, rebuilding & improving our website, particularly given the extremely short timeframe we had. They were very professional, helpful, and informative; they are definitely leaders in their field. They offered training to make sure we were self-sufficient, and have answered any question we’ve had since the site went live. The site functions well and we are thrilled with their design, execution, and the plug-ins they developed & implemented on the site. Highly recommended.

Very important to us was the friendly, collaborative spirit of their team. They were receptive and flexible, direct and helpful. There was no question or request too small to consider and work through. They were always reachable by phone or by email.

We all worked together well. Everything promised was delivered fully. I am very happy with my website.

As part of our role as watchdog of Philadelphia City government, the Controller’s Office and its work must be accessible to the public. One of our first priorities upon City Controller Rebecca Rhynhart taking office was an overhaul and relaunch of the Controller’s Office website, including infrastructure to support interactive reports and data releases. The YIKES team rose to the challenge. They were easy to work with and very responsive. Best of all, their creative thinking helped turn our vision for the website, including more functionality and a user-friendly feel, into a reality.

We could not be more excited about our new website, from how it looks and feels to how intuitive it is. Yikes helped create something that will provide a major benefit to our existing clients and potential customers, as well as our marketing and sales teams. The Yikes team was a pleasure to work with and committed to service at every step, making for an efficient and enjoyable project all around.
