Crystal Bay Solutions Stepped up for Us

This partner review is for: Crystal Bay Solutions LLC
We had a very complex database application that was beyond our ability to complete in a timely manner on our own so we turned to Cullen at Crystal Bay Solutions. Cullen was very professional and responsive in his interactions with us and proved to be very flexible with his work and scheduling. We had many revisions during our development, but Cullen remained completely patient with us all the way until the project was closed out. We will certainly be turning to Cullen again in the future the next time the opportunity arises.

QuickBase allows us to use data in a way that tells our story. It is easily customizable, so we can track and emphasize the data that is valuable to us, rather than having to fit into a pre-conceived box. The data is dynamic; we can see how members are interacting with one another, as opposed to just a chronology of a single members activities. QuickBase reports are simple to construct, and the customizable reports and roles allow each user to get the data that is most useful to them.

I built the first revision of QuickBase. As the company grew, I needed a more sophisticated QuickBase, and building it was beyond my capabilities. So, I worked with a couple consultants and ultimately finished the job with Cullen.
Some things I learned in the process:
1) Is the person pitching my business actually going to be the one doing the development? Or do they farm it out to more junior people who then require a lot of my supervision and take longer to finish the project?
2) Do we both have a sense of urgency for my project? Or do they fit me in while working part time and taking vacations thereby delaying my project's completion?
3) Are they committed to understanding my business and giving me a quality end deliverable? Or, are they solely focused on billable hours, i.e. billing for time worked even if they are not giving me a bug-free, well-designed, meeting-my-original-requirements solution?
I had a great experience with Cullen. He took the time up front to really understand my business, operations, and QuickBase wish-list. And then walked me through possible solutions. He did not charge me for this initial consultation, and it was thorough.
I could tell he really knew his stuff, and Cullen was the person who actually built out QuickBase. So he required no supervision from me and just occasional feedback/check ins to make sure he was meeting my requirements. He also worked full time and communicated up front his other project commitments.
Lastly, Cullen has a lot of integrity and really cared about my business and delivered a quality solution. I would hire him again and recommend him highly.

We needed a consultant to assist on building a Global Data Base for our product line that includes everything from factory quotes, to material break downs, ect. Whatever challenge we throw at them, they help find a solution. These solutions come from a clear understanding of how business run and what retailers expect.

Cullen at Crystal Bay Solutions was great to work with. He was always pleasant and willing to spend time explaining the ins and outs of the application. Whenever a question would arise, Cullen would spend as much time as was needed to help us solve the problem. The implementation of our application went smoothly, thanks in large part to the patience and expertise of Crystal Bay Solutions.

I had the good fortune of being introduced to Cullen Coates several years ago. He designed and constructed a clean application for us to begin building historical relationships. Cullen is the most knowledgeable professional in Quickbase I have ever met and his bedside manner helped to ease the pain each time I ventured into places I should have stayed out of. Cullen made sure that the foundation was solid and there was always a backup!

Thanks to the collaboration and excellent knowledge of QuickBase through our consultant, we were able to transition easily our contacts into an application that helps us manage donations, membership dues records, and much more. Additionally, QuickBase now helps us to manage our collection of botanical garden plants, including implementation of signage by exportation of specific fields from the database program. Cullen was responsible for helping our organization create strategic planning, membership management, and the maintenance of plants and equipment. He also made follow up contacts to help us upgrade or tweek the applications whenever we needed it. Now, as the person responsible for managing all external and internal contacts, I'm very pleased that I can now create and generate reports and other relative documents in more than half the time that it used to take with our previous applications from another company. Thanks a million, Cullen!

Our data management needs had been like herding ducks!, But Crystal Bay Solutions and QuickBase were the answer. We have many stakeholders who all needed to input, update, change and review the data, QuickBase/Crystal Bay Solutions gives us all the tools we need for users of all levels of skills. It has allowed us to put all of our ducks in a row and to really use our data, instead of not knowing what we had or what to do with that knowledge.

My business model changed from a central office to a decentralized operation with staff working from home offices. Crystal Bay developed a solution that enabled me to quickly send out client assignments to each staff consultant. Once the assignment was completed, the consultant entered a summary of what happened and the amount of time spent with the client along with any expenses incurred. This enabled me to develop activity reports and keep track of where clients were in our process. It also provided me with the information needed to pay my consultants. When questions arose about the system, Cullen was easily reached and quickly explained the situation or resolved the problem. I couldn't be happier.

Cullen was able to provide us with a quick setup for a membership management system we could never outgrow. We have been up and running for two years now, and are able to capture new contacts off our website directly into our database from our outreach programs. Cullen is easy to work with, and so is the application.
