| | | Dear Sean,
I've written this recommendation of your work to share with other LinkedIn users.
Details of the Recommendation: "Sean is first class, top of the food chain, THE expert. I work and live in the IT and Telecoms world and every single time over the last 7 years I have had a problem that no one else could resolve I have found the answer with Sean.
Sean just knows how to get it done. Even other experts in the IT field recommend Sean. That says it all. I can think of two times in recent memory that I have gone to a local IT consulting firm and contacted their top person for very high level work and they have told me straight, "oh you need this guy Sean Wallbridge!"
In my experience you can spend an hour troubleshooting yourself, but you need to recognize when you hit your own professional limits; then call Sean.
I have been a direct customer of Sean where he helped us launch the first GSM network in Bermuda, I have helped Sean with some of his projects and I have most recently partnered with Sean to solve some of my customer issues that no one else has been able to do so quickly, efficiently and cost effectively.
Keep Sean in your contacts!"

| | | Earlier this year, the Executive House Hotel had decided to upgrade their Property Management System. itgroove came highly recommended by a colleague, so we proceeded to make contact. During the initial meeting, I was very impressed at itgroove's aptitude for ascertaining our business requirements. itgroove provided me with a complete and concise quote and project plan which was accepted and executed with precision.
Ever since implementation, itgroove has proactively managed our infrastructure and have thus provided 100% availability for our line of business applications. I would highly recommend itgroove not only as a trusted IT advisor, but a dependable and reliable managed services provider. Keep up the good work guys! | Executive House Hotel |

| | | I am so pleased and impressed with the document that you have prepared. They are very professional. They give me assurance and confidence that everything is in good shape, there are checklists and all issues are tracked. This is the style that most customers dream of their consultants.
Most consultants underestimate the power & responsibilities of good documentation and the benefits and values of keeping customers informed and trained on their systems – which in turn give the customers more confidence to depend on the consultants for future projects.
I also appreciate that you always go the extra miles to check, follow-up and make sure that our SharePoint system is running smoothly.

| | | I've had the pleasure of working with Sean on two occasions - both where he supplied a team of consultants skilled in networking / Microsoft technologies for engagements that I was responsible for.
Sean and his team went out of their way to deliver value to the customer, making themselves available at a moments notice to respond to customer needs. They demonstrated deep technical expertise - quickly solving complex technical issues that had gone undiagnosed for months by other IT consultants.
I trust Sean to provide sound technical advice and to deliver results. He's also a really great guy to work with.
