Testimonials
April Greenberg developed and currently maintains the U.S. web site for our Quo Vadis brand planners & diaries. We originally hired her to redo our site. It was slow and clunky, and annoyed our customers instead of bringing them closer to us. Her new design is crisp, clear, and easy to use, and puts the consumer in touch with the product they want to find within seconds. Since April’s redesign in 2001, Quo Vadis has reversed a downward trend in sales. Product sales have steadily climbed, particularly in the college market and corporate customization. We have received a lot of good feedback on the site from our retail partners, who are delighted with the stream of loyal customers Quo Vadis channels to them. April’s design facilitates contact instead of discouraging it. April is able to help me realize my ideas. She can translate my business needs into web design. Her work is always on time and on budget, which is especially important for a lean, small business like ours. We are delighted with her work, and plan to keep her as our web designer.
April is smart, quick, creative and effective. Front-end and back-end both were expertly handled: Her user interfaces were simple, compelling and elegant–think Google. The underlying technology scaled well and was easy to modify and extend. Bravo and thanks!

“April’s terrific. She’s quick and professional. No surprises. She probably doesn’t want me to say this, but she’s also flexible about changes. Great to work with. Would recommend her highly.”

“When 60-plus organizations joined together in July as the Save Darfur Coalition, we needed to get online fast, with an attractive and functional website that would satisfy all of our members, and one that they could link to with pride. A trusted ally pointed us to Springthistle with confidence, and we have never looked back. April’s work is not only visually stunning, it operates beautifully to get our information disseminated and our message completely understood. Even more satisfying have been our dealings with April Greenberg, who knows exactly what we need before we ask for it, and which she puts in its perfect place quickly and accurately. Our website makes our program successful, and Springthistle makes our website successful. Thank you, Springthistle. You are more than an integral part of our team — we couldn’t have done it without you.”

“April Greenberg from Springthistle has been wonderful. To be able to count on efficient service is invaluable. She is very easy to communicate with and can be relied upon to keep in touch with you. There is nothing worse than being left hanging, so for her respectful style I applaud her. She is upfront about changes she believes would benefit your website and is honest about changes that would just be costly and wasteful. I highly recommend her service.”

“We contacted April more or less “cold”– sort of a friend through a friend– on the hope that she might help out with a grassroots fundraising campaign. April was, pun intended, a spring breeze to work with. She understood our mission completely, and jumped in with tremendous team spirit, enthusiasm, and creativity. As non-techies, we didn’t quite know how to translate what we thought we wanted into “web-ese.” April understood what we were looking for. She created a multipurpose, fun site that people enjoyed visiting. The site helped us reach our target fundraising goals. Beyond excellent web design skills, April brought empathy and intelligence to the project. What more could you ask for?”
“April is fast, smart and the most technically savvy web designer I’ve ever had the pleasure to do business with. Had I hired her to do all my prior web designs I would have saved myself time, money and angst. And, she really can eat!”
“I had an idea for a fund raising event which included a website to promote the event. April, who did not know me at the time, was approached by a mutual friend and she generously agreed to build the site. I had some thoughts on what the site should include but no detailed plan. April was able to work with what I gave her and was able to build a website that clearly conveyed my feelings for this event and the charitable organization that would benefit from the fundraising. I received nothing but positive feedback from the hundreds of visitors to the site. I beleive the fundraising was so sucessful in no small part because of this website.”
