Nokia Siemens Networks Ltd.
We at Nokia Siemens Networks Ltd Media2You Division had the pleasure to work with KSF Technologies since 2004 for international digital media distribution projects such as Comcor in Russia, Beijing Digital Telecom, China Telecom and America Online. KSF have proved to be a good software development partner throughout these challenging international projects, providing development, QA and graphics design resources and services.
Invertix Corp.
“I manage my company’s software development and have worked with KSF for over 2 years. Together, we have worked on a variety of programming tasks including server code, client code, and databases. The projects have been in multiple languages and on Windows and Unix platforms.””KSF has provided key skills that are valuable to my company:
Value: We believe KSF provides great value. Using KSF allows us to be more cost-effective and competitive in the marketplace.
Ability to meet deadlines: When KSF promises to deliver by a certain date, they deliver. Conversely, if I impose a tight deadline and explain the importance of a deliverable, they find a way to deliver what we need. As a manager, this flexibility and reliability is invaluable to planning and delivering products on time.
Management: I find it very easy to manage the KSF development team, even though they are far away – and I have never spoken with them on the phone. In fact, it takes less effort to manage KSF than it does to manage my own developers here.
Scope of Work: When we require a specific design, KSF can always take our specification and implement it. However, if we don’t have time to specify and document a solution, KSF has the technical ability to research and determine a good approach to the problem. The ability to offload design work is invaluable to me.”

RDI Technologies Inc.
“In late 1996 KSF had organized a special department of 3 developers that started to work as our own research and development department. During most of two years of our cooperation by this scheme KSF provided us with more than 5 man-years of high quality development services
… KSF proved us the experienced and professionalism in not just simple coding, but also in application design, understanding, problem solving and most importantly, delivery of the final results… All services are provided according to the specifications within originally estimated timeframes and budget. And, of course, all services are provided for the very reasonable cost… I definitely recommend them as high quality software developers capable to provide wide range of solutions in time and for reasonable cost.

Claritas Inc.
“KSF first was contracted by Claritas to complete low-profile, low impact mapping projects, but the KSF work was so productive that Claritas assigned to KSF many important enhancement and corrections to systemic defects. For more than thirty months, the KSF Technologies has developed significant portions of the flagship product at Claritas, Compass for Windows. Throughout this time, it has been a pleasure for Claritas to work with KSF.
The KSF team since has been extraordinarily proficient with its work, being quick to master difficult problems, exceedingly thorough with issue analysis and time estimates, and startlingly fast with turnaround time. Moreover, the team has provided superior client service-its display of patience and responsiveness has been remarkable from the outset. The successful relationship between KSF and Claritas to deliver Claritas products has been a testament to the quality of KSF development and service talents. It is a relationship that Claritas expects to continue.

Limbic Systems, Inc.
“My last company used KSF for a lot of COM and C++ development, and they were very happy with both the quality and quantity of the work KSF produced. So when I needed access to an off-shore web development team, I immediately thought of KSF. Since then we have done two internet development projects together using Linux, Java Servlets, Java Server Pages, Apache and mySQL. So far both projects have gone great. The KSF team is always responsive and we have had no defects on the live sites. I highly recommend working with KSF if you are looking for off-shore resources.
Honestly, I would be hard pressed to find a negative to share with you. The KSF guys, individually and collectively, are very competent and very efficient. They overcome the distance problem by communicating questions promptly by email which ensures that nothing falls through the cracks – I correspond with team members virtually every day – and taking initiative on important issues as opposed to waiting for instruction. If they were less of a “point and shoot” outfit, the distance would be an issue but KSF has a lot of experience working with overseas firms (large and small) and this is simply not an issue for them. They foster a genuine sense of partnership by bringing a very positive attitude to mid-stream changes that inevitably occur in complex projects and they consistently offer suggestions that lead to a better product as opposed to merely doing the minimum amount of work required to meet the contract. I have never had a schedule or quality problem with any of the work that they have performed.
I feel lucky to find these characteristics in any contract firm but given the fact that KSF’s rates are significantly less than local firms, I can say with confidence that I have not found a better value than KSF. I always turn to KSF first when I need a contractor to perform development work. I’m usually pretty good about finding something negative to say in a letter of recommendation but KSF generates top-notch work, executes in an orderly manner, and provides the services at tremendous rates. I don’t ask for anything else from a contractor.”

“I had the opportunity to visit the KSF offices and was surprised by the large staff and diversity of projects they were working on. I found the time management, documentation, and productivity measures for each client application were also very impressive.
Overall, I have found KSF to provide very high quality programming services, at a very reasonable cost compared to western commercial rates, and to develop within the timeframes originally estimated. They were able to achieve every significant goal we set for software functionality and provided many good suggestions along the way to make the application work better than originally planned.”

MapInfo Corp.
“KSF did an excellent job in both projects for MapInfo. They demonstrated an in depth understanding of MapInfo software. Their work was high quality and on time. They showed a good degree of flexibility in working on-site or off-site. Whenever we requested changes to the product, their turnaround was very quick. They also worked well independently and understood our needs without a lot of in depth explanation.”
