Please accept this letter as a formal recommendation for Next Horizon. My professional relationship with Mr. Ellis extends back some ten years and he as been an integral part of several businesses I have run with regard to telecommunications; hardware/software implementation; and web design development and hosting. Next Horizon’s technical expertise has saved my organizations thousands of dollars and labor hours. Moreover, the applications they have implemented have transformed several of my businesses. I submit that any of the four businesses they have helped administer would not have prospered in any meaningful way without their efforts.
I will highlight some of Next Horizon’s accomplishments with my organization(s):
2000:Next Horizon diagnosed a French operation, which had taken over control of my network (the prior administrators were unable to diagnose the situation… we were up and running again twenty-four hours after their intervention)
2004: Implementation of IT and telecommunications across four retail offices
2004: Design and management of cross-functional web platform
2006: Re-design of traffic safety web portal (necessary to stay viable in the market… design concept kept the operation in business)
The purpose of this correspondence is not just to herald their technical abilities but also to advise that the company’s character is the real heart of the matter. In all of my dealings with Next Horizon they have always applied themselves to the tasks as though their efforts were applied to their own business. I find a rare selflessness in their approach to business that is uncommon and refreshing. They are perfectionist in the sense that they are always willing to take the time to ensure that everything is as it should be.

An Open Letter to Potential Clients of Y2K Service Inc
My name is Harvey Levitt and I am the I.T. Director for Glickstein Laval Carris, CPAs in Maitland, FL. We are a local certified public accounting firm in business for over 25 years and have roughly 45 full-time-staff-all of who utilize for day-to-day client communication.
For the past several years we managed our domain e-mail transactions using our in-house Exchange 2003 Server. While this onsite server setup worked well for us, the maintenance and security requirements proved quite burdensome. As we are an accounting operation and computer security is not one of our core competencies, we decided, six months ago to shift these responsibilities to Next Horizon/Y2K in Sanford, FL.
Our experience with Next Horizon has been exceptional and we commend their talent and professionalism. We have had negligible down time and whenever there are any problems, usually of our own making, we receive quick responses and our questions have always been answered to our satisfaction.
They have been available to assist us each and every step of the way during our transition. They provided instructions on the critical path taken to move our existing Exchange data from our in-house server to their hosted server and also provided detailed information regarding the resetting of the Staff’s Outlook profiles to query the new hosted server.
Our form maintains over 45 desktop computers, several laptops, and multiple servers and does so on a tight budget. We compared the cost of continuing with our in-house email server (which would have required significant upgrade when moving to Exchange 2007) compared with moving to a hosted Exchange environment. It is refreshing to find a contractor who has been able to provide such personal service for a very reasonable cost.
In particular, working with Next Horizon/Y2k has been a pleasure. So many sales staff of other computer vendors will guarantee you “the world” if only you sign up today. Next Horizon will never promise you anything that he cannot really make happen.
We strongly recommend Next Horizon/Y2K for their hosted Exchange services.

Let me start with this. Your team is a joy to work with. From the inception of our change over to the minor questions that pop up from time to time, you always go above and beyond to help us out even to this day.
We have been a web presence now for over 15 years and in that time we have watched how much the web has influenced our business. Just over a year ago, we decided it was time to make some changes that would directly affect how our POS system integrated with our website; making the two work together for real time inventory and seamless website ordering.
After a few short conversations with our current provider, it became evident that they could no longer keep up with our demand. While we wanted to keep the hosting local, we also wanted a company that had some old fashion customer service values. In steps Next Horizon. They worked closely with our POS provider as well as the web design team that was integrating our web and POS system and made certain that our downtime was not only minimal, but also that everyone was working together and all on the same page before even attempting a live test.
I have and will continue to recommend Next Horizon to anyone that is looking for a host that will help in making their company a presence on the web.

We’ve been working with Next Horizons for a year and we are their biggest fans! For the past ten years, we’ve worked with various web developers and IT companies in the Orlando area, which cannot touch the level of customer service and integrity that Next Horizons offers. Every time we’ve asked for a change on our website or assistance with our computers, we’re always impressed by their ability to deliver what they have promised.

Firstly, let me begin by saying that the team at Next Horizon has been, and continues to be a pleasure to work with.
As a small business, we struggle with cost effective methods to generate new sales leads and increase our top line revenue. I realized some time ago that a strong web presence is one of the best ways to leverage our limited marketing dollars.
Prior to working with Next Horizon, we had a website, but we were unsatisfied with the amount of traffic to our site, and the number of sales leads that it actually generated. The design needed some serious help and the site required optimization for search engines.
Before the redesign by Next Horizon, we typically received fewer than 4 or 5 hits a month that actually turned into real sales leads.
Since the redesign by Next Horizon and the implementation of Search Engine Optimization, we now receive several hundred new visitors per month and receive new sales leads via e-mail daily. The unique e-mail Request for Information Form developed by Next Horizon for our site makes it easy to track where these new leads are coming from. The new sales generated by our site more than paid for the re-design expenditure within the first month that the site was up and running. We are provided with monthly analytics so we can track what is happening and the results are truly impressive. We also spend less now on Next Horizon SEO services than we were spending on Google Pay per Click ads… with better results.
I would certainly recommend Next Horizon for anyone looking to improve their marketing results through the world wide web.

"Please allow me to take the time to thank you and your staff for the work you do with my various businesses. As you will recall, my network situation was quite tenuous when your organization first came out. In fact we were shut down due to internet hackers. Your technician(s) quickly safeguarded our systems and have now taken our computing to the next level. We were grateful then and we still receive excellent network support from your company and actually think of you as our IT department."
"Your company has also been integral in the development of several key web sites. We are both pleased with the web site design and hosting that we are getting. This has simply been the easiest set of processes and relationship that we have had as regards web design and web hosting. When we go to create new business opportunities (which you know we do all of the time) your staff's input on the web design is quite impressive. They always get involved as if the business and web sites were their own."
Thanks again,

Dear Account Executive,
Please pass on this note of thanks to Next Horizon, with regards to the fantastic work they have done on our website.
Next Horizon worked efficiently and patiently alongside our company, to help create and launch our first website within 7 working days.
We hope you have had the chance to look at www.thedigitalprintstore.com since its launch - the design flair is fantastic!
Also, Melissa and I would like to thank you for your advice and guidance during our initial meeting. Not every sales lead results in a sale, but you put us at ease from the very start of our meeting, and convinced us you knew what you were doing!
We hope that we might receive a similar letter of thanks from Next Horizon in the months to come, as we pursue a working relationship together.
Please make sure that the guys (and the boss!) see this.
Many Thanks
Andy - Melissa Oldfield

I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciate to the staff of Next Horizon for my new website www.bioslife-2.net.
When I first met with Pete Muscello with Next Horizon about my new site, I told him I wanted a professional but warm and friendly image. I also wanted to incorporate a little of my background and convey that I am someone of integrity.
Pete worked with Javan Berry, my webmaster, to create this awesome site! I have been sending people to the site and they have all remarked about how professional the site is. This is very important to me because I am building an international organization. One of my Unicity team members remarked that my site was much better than the company site. It doesn’t get any better than that!
This is the first phase of the site; the site is a work in progress. We will be adding products and testimonials as we go along. Pete and Javan are continuing to make the site better and better.
I can't tell you how pleased I am with Next Horizon.
If you would like to contact me for further information, please feel free to do so.
My toll free number is 1-888-239-5497

We had no experience with networking and the guidance that you gave us was invaluable. On another note, I firmly believe that your ability to diagnose and repair one of our Macintosh systems, as fast as you did, saved us a tremendous amount of time and money."

"After speaking with many companies in the computer industry, we were most pleased to discover this company. Many offering their products were really not aware of what we needed now or in the future. We feel your company has served us well in both areas. With many firms, after the sale we would have been on our own. This has not been the case. We would like to thank you and your staff for your tremendous support in both hardware and software, and for your efforts in training us in the use of both."
