TESTIMONIALS
"They were tireless and patient as they made precision in-sights and pragmatic recommendations that helped balance the tradeoffs of early product development. Their innovative solutions to the myriad of technical challenges thrown their way were essential to our fielding of 3 different hardware models of a novel product in under a year. The product has been in Malawi and operating beautifully for nearly a year where all competitor products crumbled. Alogus was professional, fun to work with, innovative, and a huge improvement to our business. We look forward to expanding the AspectReporter(TM) product and will seek Alogus out as our design partner on the next product, without question."

"Over the years we think of our time with Alogus fondly and feel lucky to have found them so early on in building our company, we cannot praise them enough! They are always optimistic, yet extremely realistic especially when it comes to production timelines. They consistently strive for the best, leave no stone unturned (when predicting potential future roadblocks) as well, the friendly rapport during our team-meeting calls goes a long way! I do not hesitate to recommend Alogus to anyone who wishes to work with a team that feels like partners."

"I had a project that required the design and development of a unique medical communication system capable of withstanding the harsh environment of tropical sub-Sahara Africa. Project timelines were tight and there was no reference design available. Dave and the team at Alogus went beyond what was expected from a design company. Their innovation, technical expertise, willingness to think out of the box, attention to details and smoothly working with other project vendors/partners made all the difference in making the project a success. I would highly recommend Alogus to anyone looking for company to make your next project a success."
