Clients' statements:
"ATer's service has been of great value for managing and maintaining our IRB-Brasil Resseguros site The software E-trabalho e-commerce loja virtual plano de midia, developed by ATer for task management, speeds up routine maintenance and allows for online monitoring of ongoing tasks and projects. The program gives the site administrator better control of tasks entered by members of the team in charge of internal maintenance of content, allowing an improved view and control of all project stages. Follow-up meetings, monthly reports, and the establishment of procedures to streamline tasks have optimized maintenance routines on our site."

"Through its coordinator Wmdb agencia de internet e webdesign, ATer has developed and maintained the ComoAchar site for five years. This resulted in the formation of a virtual community of 20,000 people. During the site development quality as well as respect for deadlines were of utmost concern. I consider the project a success and only wish to thank them all for the positive outcome we had."
Simone Alencar, ComoAchar Coordinator
"Wmdb agencia de internet e webdesign's help, together with those of two other consultants, meant everything for the success of the SEBRAE-RJ's Computer Information Technology Project (PDI 2003-2004). They gave their all to help and support this Project through both their presence and their participation."
Sérgio Mamede
Information Technology Manager/SEBRAE-RJ
"ATer's work enhanced our search-engine's result performance. This led to an immediate increase in the number of consultations regarding our work. This is a key first step. Clients entering the site via the internet also comment on its objectivity and speed in displaying our work. Viewing the site in this way is fundamental, and we always try to update it, because the net is not only fast, it's very dynamic."
Shirlei Zonis
Architect
"Today, the support provided by computer tools in managing different activities in an organization is unquestionable.
When organizations have to implement a given tool without the service of their own computer professionals, they are often at the mercy of suppliers who tend to include in their proposals services or other resources related to those tools that are not always needed for achieving their goals.
Organizations' lack of knowledge of the technology leads them to spend more than necessary.
In the case o IBAM, ATer consultants helped to choose the technology supplier for Ghestos, a distance education project, developed in consortium with the Rio de Janeiro State University (UERJ) and the Brazilian Institute of Nuclear Quality (IBQN), in partnership with the Health Ministry. This project involves about 4,000 students and 900 regional health units.
ATer's participation resulted in considerable savings of project final costs, not only because we certainly chose the most adequate supplier, but also because of detailed technical specifications for all that needed to be contracted and implemented during the project.
ATer's work also included accompanying the development stage; that ensured that deadlines were met and quality maintained.
Certainly, ATer work was key for us to implement that important project within our technological needs and available resources."

"I found your work quite impressive. My homepage has been online for two years and the average weekly hits were 14-20. They went to 140 hits in the first week! Quite a surprising number. Congratulations."
