Darnelle Hendricks, Customer Experience Manager Daikin New Zealand
"Working with the Punctuate NZ team is a wonderful experience, not only can they supply amazing insight into a product website/application, that brings a truly excellent customer experience, they have extensive knowledge of what is possible and will also put forward alternative ideas, at the same time as teaching you many things along the way. I am very impressed at the way Dan ensures the system works for you and not vice versa, the efficiency of the process is excellent. I am very happy to put my name to this review."
Brent Watson, CTO Bel Air Cinema
"What an amazing thing communication is! Being half way across the world, Dan in New Zealand, myself in the UK, made no difference to Punctuate / Dan Hawes producing a great website, exactly to brief and which required very little tweaking. We have been delighted with the results of the website both in design and the format. In our mind’s eye this was just the kind of look we were hoping for - thank you Dan. Our early morning FaceTime call will be long remembered!"

"Working with Punctuate to design, develop and launch Green Bay High School’s new website was an awesome experience. The initial design process was easy as Dan and Nadia really connected with the school’s vision, strategic focus, and our local community. The team at Punctuate were able to incorporate our unique needs and school profile into a coherent design aesthetic and user experience. Prototyping and refining our website was a collaborative process, and the support along the way was excellent. Everything from stakeholder engagement, refining the UX and transitioning to a new content management system was well planned and executed. When it came time for launching the new site, the transition was managed by Punctuate in a manner that was seamless."
"The ongoing support post-launch and the relationship we have formed with the team couldn’t be better and we have the utmost trust and confidence that they will continue to deliver an industry-leading service and ensure we have a product that continues to evolve and stay fit for purpose for an evolving school and changing digital market. Ngā mihi nui ki a kōrua"
Jono Wyeth, Deputy Principal Green Bay High School
"I am very pleased to write this letter of reference on behalf of Dan Hawes in my capacity as the Deputy Principal of Green Bay School. We have used Punctuate in our recent revamp of our school website. Overall, I believe Dan to be a skilled, thoughtful, and thoroughly professional Information Technology expert, which I will briefly elaborate on below.
During the course of our journey to change our outdated website, Dan has worked with me at Green Bay School. I have always been impressed by his outstanding diligence and his high level of technical expertise. He is personable, and this was evident as his role had him working with a variety of people with different roles in the school. Indeed, I have been more than satisfied with his relationships with my colleagues.
Dan listened to our ideas, made the appropriate changes, but also sought to educate and offer solutions to problems. This feedback has been integral in delivering a platform that works for the school. His communication skills were excellent, always seeking to provide us with updates for the completion of the site.
Dan is a tremendous asset as he is; accountable and personable with a superior work ethic and highly skilled, and I would recommend him without a reservation."
Alex Milich, Deputy Principal
Green Bay School
What Dan has been able to create has far exceeded our expectations. He was able to bring our vision to fruition. His ability to plan, test and design for a totally unique database that is driven by the experiences of our teachers has been exemplary. Any issues or changes that we discovered through testing phases have been actioned quickly - as well as Dan offering suggestions to future proof this powerful tool - creating something that will sustain the knowledge learned within our community for future researchers and learners.
In conjunction to this quite phenomenal work on our knowledge database, Dan has created a community web-portal that gives our greater community the ability to see and understand the work that is happening on behalf of the seven and a half thousand children within our community. Again, Dan did this through genuinely taking the time to understand who we are as a community, what drives us and what we value. We never felt that this was a ‘typical’ solution that was being tweaked for us. This digital presence Dan has created for Kōtuitui is designed with us, for us and to serve us, now and into the future. If you have the opportunity to work with Dan and his team, we feel 100% assured they will look after you, just as they continue to do for the Kōtuitui Community."

"Dan at Punctuate designed and developed our webpage. From designing our logo and developing the webpage, Dan made the whole process really easy. During the process we were always kept in the loop and up to date with the progress. We would highly recommend the team at Punctuate and would use them again without hesitation."

I recommend Punctuate in terms of the quality of services and they consistently meet my expectations and exceed them."
