““Gifford is one of the most unusual people I've met in technology -- in a good way. Here is a guy who grew up a Nova Scotia lobsterman (he's shared lobster recipes with me) and was educated as a minister...and without shedding either of those identities built a serious tech company about as far geographically from Silicon Valley as you can get. He's won the attention of Microsoft and the U.S. Military. And he's always been willing to share his expertise with me. All in all, Giff is a great story.””

“I take great pleasure in recommending Gifford Watkins and Atlantic Webfitters. I came across the company through Google and after speaking to him was immediately convinced they were the best partners to help build a client portal. Gifford is a pleasure to work with; his patience and willingness to help bring my vision for a portal to life are greatly appreciated. DNN is brilliant and with the right partner like Atlantic Webfitters it becomes an exceptional piece of kit."

“Gifford hosts my web portal. For the last two years, I have been pleased with his work. Anytime I have a question he is available and helpful. I would recommend Gifford as a reliable business associate!”

“Gifford's Atlantic Webfitters' clients save many thousands of dollars by avoiding the purchase, maintenance, continual replacement and operational support of servers. And they gain access to top of the line software such as SQL database technology, intranet modules for office productivity and content management software, all for a small monthly fee. Additionally, Atlantic Webfitters customers have drastically reduced the need for programmers to make changes to their portals, saving many more thousands of dollars each year. The functionality offered by Atlantic Webfitters' suite of module choices, the ease with which they can be implemented and the low cost make the AWF's portal solution very attractive.”

“Gifford called me over 5 years ago to talk about web consulting. He was very inquisitive and was eager to learn everything he could. He started playing around with some technology, did his research and found the perfect technology for his needs, DotNetNuke. Since starting his company, we have kept in touch and worked on many projects together. You will not find a more dedicated, passionate and skilled person in this industry. I have recommended Gifford many times to some of our clients that are looking for a nice, tight, hosted solution for their portal. Not only does he know his stuff, he is simply a great guy to go have a beer (and Lobster) with. His colourful background, story telling and passion for life makes me proud to call him a friend and colleague.”

“Gifford is a great guy! He has developed easy to use software and he explains technology in clear and easy to understand terms. He is quick to respond to questions, facilitates learning and is very accommodating with his time and vast knowledge. I always enjoy working with Gifford and Atlantic Webfitters!”

“Gifford is a tireless supporter of DotNetNuke in Canada. He has many clients that are extremely happy with their sites created with DotNetNuke. Gifford has worked hard evangelizing DotNetNuke in his area and started a user group to support others who use the product. Gifford gave up his time to come to Tampa in June of 2009 to speak at the Day of DNN. He is a likeable person and will bend over backwards to support your needs.”

“Gifford is an experienced Web Manager, we were easy to work with him since his communication in terms of what he required for his clients was clear and detail-oriented. This helped the project to meet its strategic objective.”

“Gifford did a fantastic job in getting our portal up and running in a professional and timely manner. His creative input and insights were incredibly useful to us.”

“Working with Gifford is always a pleasant experience, because he knows exactly what he wants and can express that verbally. For a person like myself who specializes in corporate voiceovers and writing, working with Gifford makes my job a whole lot easier. Bob Brewster http://bobbrewster.voices.com”
