Testimonials
Over the past eight years, we have engaged the services of Pixels initially to create a new website and more recently to revamp that website to reflect changing times.
What appeals most about using Pixels is the welcoming and flexible attitude displayed, coupled with the professional and affordable end result.
We look forward to doing business with Gita and the team at Pixels again in the future and can highly recommend them to others.
A special thanks to Gita at Pixels.
Gita and her team have put together an absolutely fantastic website for my business and I couldn’t be happier. Her efforts were tireless and everything was done to make sure that I the client was 100% satisfied. Business coming in through my website has literally doubled since the site went live. Thanks, Gita, you’re a star.
We have worked with Pixels for a number of years now and during this period they have successfully modernised our three very outdated company websites including Google optimising them. Further, Pixels maintain all the necessary backdoor administration and are able to quickly respond to and remedy any issues that may occur. Gita and Mohan are professional and helpful at all times.
