Ikon Arts
Ikon Arts Management is one of the UK's most dynamic and innovative music management agencies, managing some of the world's leading musicians.
DevDoctor built their website using open-source CMS technologies and bespoke code, allowing non-technical authors to manage content simply.
We needed a website which looked fresh and dynamic, and which was easy to update. DevDoctor built the site rapidly, and gave us valuable advice on the design and content of the website; we were one of the first music management agencies in the UK to include a regular blog on our site, for example. The result is a superb site which showcases some of the world's leading musicians - we definately recommend DevDoctor.

Upside Outcomes
Upside Outcomes was founded in 2002 to provide solutions at the intersection of technology and marketing, enabling its customers to take strategic control of their top-line revenue. Headquartered in Inverness, in the heart of the Scottish Highlands, Upside Outcomes delivers on-demand technologies to help companies understand and influence the critical success factors that determine their long-term success in the market.
DevDoctor wrote a charting library in C# to enable Upside Outcomes to deliver a customised Salesforce.com solution for advanced data display.
DevDoctor did some excellent work for Upside Outcomes with a custom .NET charting controls package. The communication was first-rate, as was the code. I found DevDoctor was an excellent choice and one I would not hesitate to make the same choice again.

Eaton Square Concerts
Eaton Square Concerts is one of London's most exciting new concert series, featuring some of today's finest established musicians and young stars. Ranging from early music to contemporary choral works, at the core of Eaton Square Concerts is an aspiration to deliver chamber music of the highest quality.
DevDoctor built the Eaton Square Concerts website using open-source and custom technologies, including integration with the PayPal online payment system.
Following the integration by DevDoctor of a PayPal-based online payment system on the Eaton Square Concerts website, we saw a huge increase in ticket sales. DevDoctor continues to support and develop the website, and we are very satisfied with the result.

Arab Media Watch
Arab Media Watch is a well-respected media organisation monitoring the portrayal of Arab issues in the British press. Following extensive disruption to their site, AMW approached DevDoctor to recover the data and find a permanent, secure solution.
DevDoctor rebuilt the site from the ground up, using the acclaimed DotNetNuke open-source CMS framework. Data and functionality were recovered and re-implemented, and migrated into the new site. In addition, the site was re-hosted on dedicated hardware in an enterprise-class data centre.
The AMW website is key to our effectiveness as a media organisation. Following security and performance problems with the previous site, we approached DevDoctor to help us build a new website, with security, reliability and ease-of-use in mind. After an evaluation of several different proprietary and open source Content Management Systems, DevDoctor recommended DotNetNuke for its flexibility and high-quality security features, and went on to build, launch and support the website.
Since going live in 2006, we have seen a steady growth in traffic to the site, and a marked reduction in unwanted downtime, helping to cement AMW's reputation as the leading organisation dedicated to achieving balanced media coverage of Arab issues in the UK.
