Testimonials
Andrew Leniart took our specifications and
designed and installed a new business management system at our office,
enabling us to keep and actively use our client records electronically.
His work included acquiring and integrating a server and scanner,
software, computers and network. He provided expert advice on numerous
aspects of this task.
Andrew demonstrates all the key qualities that are so important:
exceptional knowledge and expertise, a high level of client service and
responsiveness, endless patience (and a sense of humour), and above all,
quite exceptional communication skills. We now have an extremely easy to
use and effective system personalised to our specific needs. He has
guided us through the early stages, and through his natural teaching
ability and skills at converting the technical to everyday language, has
managed to bring a group of IT neophytes to an acceptable level of
competence, with minimum pain. Throughout, Andrew has shown honesty and
integrity in all that he has done.
Andrew is a highly talented consultant, and his contribution to our
practice has been highly valued. I have no hesitation in recommending
his services, and look forward to our continuing professional
association.

My small public accounting accounting office of 5 staff decided to go paperless in 2003 but we had no idea how to achieve this. Andrew Leniart was referred by another accountant and he was like a knight in silver armour. In the first meeting he efficiently analysed all our office needs with minimal disruption and then tested all computers to determine the hardware and software upgrades that were required for each machine. A week later he presented a comprehensive report with options and costs for what I believe was a very minimal fee for all the work involved.
We then engaged Andrew to carry out all the work which involved a new server, network, scanners, office software, backup procedure, virus protection, etc. He worked tirelessly including throughout the night so that we could still function during work hours. He also set-up procedures and techniques regarding office IT filing systems and protocols that are basic and yet fool proof so that all staff conformed to the new system.
To this day I do not think I could have had a better system and when I sold the business last year we only moved a 2 draw filing cabinet as current work papers!! Andrew also took care of virus protection and the domain name and he was always available on the small occasions when we needed assistance. I have no hesitation in recommending Andrew as a trusted and fantastic IT consultant for accounting practitioners.

I don't think I can be more straightforward
than to simply say that Andrew Leniart is the only person I call
for any and all issues with our computers.
Whether it's a small glitch in the system or a major office relocation
Andrew is easy to get in contact with, turns up on time and gets the job
done. I couldn't ask for any more than that. (I've even got his number
on my speed dial!).
Over the last few years Andrew has saved us on a number of occasions and
he will be the only person to call if and when we need his help
again.......and knowing computers and the ever-changing technology, we
will.
Well done and best regards,
Martin

Being a total
computer novice I went kicking and screaming into the computer age with
the introduction of the GST. Without the expert and patient direction of
Andrew not only in the operation but also the purchase of the correct
computer package for my needs I would have been lost.
My SOS calls are not as regular as they once were but Andrew remains a
very important back up to my business, as my business is now totally run
through my computer.
I have no hesitation in recommending Andrew for all your computer needs.

Andrew has set up our system and dealt with all our computer issues for the last 5 years. We call on him from time to time and he responds quickly to all our computer needs which are sometimes very urgent. He is most obliging and understands our needs well.
He came highly recommended to us and we have highly recommended him to others.
Thanks Andrew

Andrew's ability to solve computer problems is amazing. On several occasions he has got my computer back in action quickly and with a minimum of fuss. His depth of understanding has been an enormous help - he has quickly found where the problems are and how to fix them. He knows which anti-virus software works and which are worthless. He never ceases to amaze me with his up-to-date knowledge.
Thanks a million, Andrew.

Andrew has been dealing with out computers & network problems for over fifteen years and l can’t speak more highly of his computer knowledge, when other IT company’s thought it was a waste of time to repair our computers and would want the easy option to reformat our hard drives instead of finding and fixing the problems, Andrew would always take time to repair any faults with our computer or network this way not loosing any data.

I have known Andrew Leniart now for
some time, he has done many jobs on my computers, and I have always been
extremely happy with the end result. He has completely setup our new
offices on a couple of occasions and networked all our systems. We are
graphic designers, so our whole business is completely computer driven,
without them we would be in serious trouble.
Andrew is always there for me, and I really appreciate the support.

proactive advice and service since then has been fantastic and we would

Andrew has helped our practice deal
with all our computer issues for the past six months. He setup our
new network, including a backup system, which has helped our office run
very efficiently. It means we can concentrate on our business knowing

a huge difference to our office - we get an almost instant
response to our cries for help.
Thanks Andrew

As an author, I am utterly dependent
on my PC working, and working optimally. When the PC goes down, I don't
just feel 'cut off', I feel like my communication lines have been
strangled. Andrew has to be the best back-stop you could ask for. I get
instant advice on the phone, and if that doesn't work, he's on the spot
to sort it out himself. And haven't I learnt heaps from him too. Andrew
- don't ever retire!

"Andrew, in case I forgot to mention
it, thanks for getting us out of trouble and sorting out, so quickly,
our recent IT problems. Whilst I like to think I can work it out myself,
you never cease to amaze me with your knowledge and computer technical
skills. You make it very comfortable and easy for me to pick the phone
up, at any time, and ask for your help on what sometimes seems to me to
be a huge problem but to you, a piece of cake. Again...thanks.
Regards and cheers"

Dear Andrew,
We wish to thank you for your assistance in implementing the “paperless office” scanning process into our office.
We have found this system to be not only time saving from a filing point of view but a tremendous aid when searching for historical information. We believe that this streamline to our operations has improved our office efficiency immensely
We would also like to personally thank you for your invaluable assistance and guidance not only during the implementation process, but also post implementation.
We highly recommend this system to other professional offices and would have no hesitation in recommending your personal expertise.
